Sometimes I get to train at home, other times I get to train before my athletes roll in, other times I get to train at the end of the night AFTER a long day of working.

NO excuses, get it done and don’t call it a day till you crank a workout in some form. #Commitment

If you ever find your motivation wading or you need a swift kick in the ass then watch this video. You’ll quickly be reminded that a quick Underground Style workout is nowhere near as tough as what goes on in this video.

By the way, I recently saw the movie, ‘Act of Valor’. HOLY S**T that movie was AWESOME. A MUST watch for all of Underground Strength Nation.

Check the movie trailer below:

I train very much by feel, allowing my emotions to drive me. If I’m feeling fired up I wanna rip into some heavy barbell work. If I’m feeling in a soul lifter type mood, it will likely be lots of bodyweight and outdoor training.

Here’s a bit of an angry day, we ALL have em’ :)

Question for You: Let me know what YOU do and HOW you train when you are having “One of those Days.”

I am psyched to seeing your comments! ha ha

Peace!

No Rules.

No cry babies or whiners.

This is how I get Hybrid and BEAST at the same time. Check it kids….

I love training this way.

Nobody ever said I should or could, I just followed my heart and gut instincts.

Back when I was bodybuilding, I would sometimes superset squats with 315-365 lbs and leg presses with 7 – 9 plates on each side. It was crazy but damn was it fun.

Deadlifts and Zerchers offer more of a “REAL World / Functional Strength” type workout compared bodybuilder leg presses.

This is what you gotta do if you wanna be a BEAST.

And you CAN become a BEAST yourself, because in a few short days I’m opening up the gates to THE 12 month program guaranteed to transform you into a BEAST.

Stay tuned!

Peace!

Guys, this video has always amped me up, and with wrestling season in full swing here in the dirty jerzee (and everywhere else in the USA) it is only fitting you see what a wrestler can do when he has brute strength, lightning fast power and amazing skill….

I don’t know about you, but I feel like kicking someone’s ass now! ha ha

I just hope I don’t run into my own wrestlers for saying that, ha ha!

Today, we had a lot of our college wrecking crew training at http://UndergroundStrengthGym.com – but we also had 1 of my 7th grade wrestlers killing it. His Dad said, “Damn Zach, they’re all Bigger than you!”

He’s right! That’s the goal – I want ALL my athletes to be way stronger than me. Not that I am some super human beast, but, if you know young athletes, most of them are weaker than the Sunday Newspaper – I have seen these dudes transform from weak as hell to strong as hell – it’s a GREAT feeling to see this stuff!

Here’s a lil’ sneak peek of today’s in season wrestling workout. I post ALL of the workouts our athletes do at http://UndergroundStrengthCoach.com

1) Zercher Squat w/thick cambered bar: 5 x 2 reps

2A) double Kettlebell Push Press 4 x 3 reps

2B) mixed grip pull ups 4 x max reps

3A) glute ham raise 3 x 10

3B) weighted 45 degree back extensions 3 x 10

4) grip & abs 3 x each

Give the workout a shot and let me know how you like it. If you’re not an in season athlete, feel free to bump the zercher squat and kettlebell reps up to 5 per set.

Post your comments on the video below!

Kill it!

PS: Coming Soon! We have an Underground Strength Show of one of our wrestling beasts and man it is some killer shizza! Just wait and see!

PPS: Wanna know how our wrestlers train and why they kill it BIG time?
