Redemption Time.
I just got my ass kicked during the brutal Jersey Shore Challenge.
Pauly Reddick of course verbally abuses me and I used my bread and butter to redeem myself: The Pull Up.
The Peg Board, well, that’s another story.
I tried this when I first got to their gym and it was rough. AFTER the workout, somehow, someway, I got it a bit.
A little practice and I can kick that peg board’s add!
Check it:
Can you count the number of times Paul Reddick calls me son?
Whatcha think of those pull ups and that peg board.
The last few videos you guys have slacked on the comments.
Step that shit up SON. I wanna see 20+ comments on every video.
Share and exchange ideas. Ask questions or just leave a comment.
Bring it SON.
Peace,

In a way I am shocked yet on the flip side, NOT so shocked.
Last week we had 3 different athletes throw up, simply from TWO bodyweight exercises, both of which are in Bodyweight University.
It was the first 10 minutes of the workout nonetheless.
The problem is, I have high expectations, or maybe not, you tell me when you post your comment.
There are FAR too many athletes, even high level athletes, who can not handle even the simplest workout using bodyweight exercises.
Last week we had an MMA fighter, football player and a basebal player throwing up in the garbage can numerous times – just from 2 bodyweight exercises.
Our goal is NOT to make them vomit, don’t be misled, it is to improve their performance.
But, too many people experience SERIOUS shock from bodyweight training. Maybe because they can’t sit down, lay down or let a machine do 90% of the work for them?
Bodyweight training is where it ALL starts. It is your foundation to fitness and strength, yet it can also be taken to highly advanced levels as well.
Now, let’s look at the guys who are vomiting: MMA Fighters, Football players and Baseball Players.
I wasn’t shocked to see the baseball player get sick, but a Football Player and an MMA Fighter? NOT good!
These men are supposed to be ready for WAR!
We have a lot of work to do out there, and we need to change the fitness abilities and levels of ALL people, but when I see combative type athletes getting sick from bodyweight training it tells me that their life is in danger if they decide to to keep their fitness levels at such a poor state.
It made me realize just how freaking important bodyweight training is. It goes beyond just the beginner. It goes into the possibility of saving lives and being ready to do battle – NO joke.

Bodyweight training can be a powerful weapon – for you, for an entire group of people, a fitness boot camp, an athletic team or a unit of military soldiers.
I;m telling you, we need to change the state of fitness in this world.
It begins with you, and from there, you must pay it forward.
Do it for yourself or for those who you train.
Tonight, the sale ends for Bodyweight University.
In Strength,

PS: I was reading former NFL great and all around bad ass, Herschel Walker’s old training program and he started kicking ass when he began doing 30 push ups and 30 sit ups during TV commercials. he also did uphill sprints, chased his Pony around his farm and even played dodge with the farm Horse! That dude is crazy but he was also built like a freaking machine – Bodyweight was his Main weapon for athletic performance and transforming his body!
Below, Herschel sprinting as a teenager – lookin’ ripped & athletic!

Below, Herschel crushing the competition as a collegiate sprinter while at Georgia – look at those friggin’ legs! Dude is built like a machine!

I used to belong to one ass kicking gym. It was 7,000 sq ft of free weights, squat racks, power racks, dumbbells going up to 180, countless benches and the sickest powerlifting platform I have EVER seen.
EVERYONE in that gym trained heavy and hard.
Powerlifters AND bodybuilders were rubbing shoulders all the time, it was packed wall to wall with aggressive competitors.
The bodybuilding and powerlifting methods they used were free weight oriented because NO machines existed in this gym.
It worked and it worked BIG time. The physiques walking the floor of this gym were mind blowing.
The strength possessed by these men and women was also mind blowing.
It was like heaven.
Well, to make a long story short, that gym shut down, due to POOR judgement in business.
I remember like yesterday how all these hardcore bodybuilders and powerlifters just disappeared from that place.
I assumed they all went to their basements and garages.
Well, I bet they followed training VERY similar to what you’re about to see below and inside of http://UndergroundMuscleBuilding.com
I still get angered at how this amazing gym went down and disappeared into the pearly gates of hard core gyms.
But, I know this much: the Underground movement is VERY strong through garages, basements and in corners of commercial gyms where a select few gather to train like Gladiators.
If you’re a Gladiator, then THIS is for YOU!
Don’t Click HERE if you’re not 100% serious about packing on muscle and strength like never before in the next 16 weeks!

I was in a bit of a rush Friday before clients were heading in and I was finishing up some internet work.
Not to worry, as I knew I could crank out some brutal workout for myself.
Hey, 15 minutes sounds like nothing but when you’re as insanely busy as I am, it works, and, I am still getting stronger and stronger.
Getting stronger is what I love, plus, the side effects of added strength are more muscle and burning fat around the clock.
So, here’s what I did in my Underground Strength Gym, where the heat was hovering slightly above 100 degrees thanks to the good ol’ jersey humidity
1A) DB snatch from the floor 4 x 5 reps each hand
1B) lateral jumps over flat bench 4 x 10
2A) weighted pull ups 4 x 5
2B) handstand push ups 4 x 5
On paper, this workout doesn’t look like much, but give it a shot and I know you’ll be feelin’ it.
Don’t fear going heavy either.
I hit snatches with a 90 lb dumbbell and my pull ups were with 60 lbs of chains.
If you can come up with a kick arse 15 minute workout, show me by commenting on this Blog Post.
The best 15 minute workout will get a f-r-e-e copy of my up coming e course, soon to be released. So you’ll wanna keep your eye out on your e mail box because this new e course is jam packed with materials that I have never released before.
The winner will be announced Tuesday
Post your workout in the comment section below.
Remember, this workout must be no longer than 15 minutes in length and somethign you actually did.
Gotta walk the walk baby!
Kill it!
