You're NEVER too old to learn new things. NEVER too old to become better. It's OK to change. Many people take pride in the fact that they will never change. Change means you're evolving. If you evolve, you are growing from within and that is of utmost importance. Without growth, You die. I'm going to challenge you to do some things that you may not be doing..... perhaps you've NEVER done these "things".... perhaps it's been a long time ago.... I'll ALWAYS be here to challenge you. I do … [Read more...]
Monday Motivation: ALL I Do Is WIN!
If you wanna make it to the TOP of ANYTHING you do it starts with the MIND. You can train as hard as you want but if the mind is not straight expect little to NO success. Same goes for Business. If you don't believe you will not climb to the top of the mountain. Success comes to those who work for it, believe in it and EARN it!

I used to keep taking out 'The Education of a Bodybuilder' in high school, sophomore year - senior year, over and over and OVER again. … [Read more...]
Hunting for a Playground Workout – The End?
I got LUCKY. I Found myself a GREAT playground, still in need of finding pull up bars and dip bars that are up HIGH so my feet don't drag on the ground. I've seen these "advanced playgrounds" in videos outside of the states & in the suburbs of NYC, but I fear there is a conspiracy to keep people weak by removing playgrounds all around the country. We filmed a TON of footage at this playground for the new Bodyweight Training Course. Now, although I've been cranking LOTS of bodyweight … [Read more...]
Express YOself, Part II
Do what you feel & feel what you do. I was definitely feelin' the urge to move heavy objects on this day. Kettlebells have been feeling GREAT and have helped my shoulder feel 100 X better! Almost every workout has some form of windmills or bent pressing involved, whether it be the warm up OR the workout, I work those Kettlebells! My focus on Bodyweight Strength is on a whole new level lately, I'm pushing hard to get the muscle ups down, on the bar AND rings. Back when I had college … [Read more...]
A Day in My Life
Not EVERY post on this Blog will be about lifting. I don't think lifting is the end all be all, perhaps you've heard me use the phrase, 'Kick Ass in Life AND Lifting'? If not, read the book HERE! Here's a bit of my day and how things are rolling for me lately... I've had a slam packed day and normally I do more work, but today was different. Many ask me how I get so much done and still have so much passion and energy on top of such a hectic schedule. Well, # 1, I focus on my passion, … [Read more...]

Underground Strength Coaches Rock Austin, TX
Just a lil' taste of what went down last weekend in Austin, TX, perhaps one of my favorite places I've ever been to, and not just because the town is so kick ass, but because the friendships I've built there are more like brotherhood and family. BIG thanks to my homie, Jeremy Thiel, for making this happen. One year ago JT brought 12 of his Coaches to NJ for a specialty USC Cert, where the entire 2 days were dedicated towards their needs and likings. His crew was in such kick ass shape that we … [Read more...]
