I've been fired up a lot lately and am honestly confused with the world we live in. I want Greatness. I want STRENGTH. The world seems opposed to that! People are offended by strength.

5 x 5 Strength Training QnA
Where did the 5 x 5 program originate from? Well, it's been around for DECADES. To my knowledge, Reg Park started the 5 x 5 program. As 1 of the strongest bodybuilders ever, and, a man who could bench 500 lbs, I actually NEVER recall reading about 5 x 5 in my teen years. And I read EVERY bodybuilding magazine and a TON of bodybuilding books. I WISH I came across this program in my high school years. I was too busy doing pump up bull shyt. Although I DO recall a kid I used to lift with … [Read more...]

"Before my father died, he said the worst thing about growing old was that other men stopped seeing you as dangerous. I've always remembered that, how being dangerous was sacred, a badge of honor." That line from the movie Act of Valor always struck a chord with me. And I've had an older friend say similar to me. How when you're 175 lbs nobody moves out of your way. He doesn't mean that in an arrogant way or in a insecure way. I understand what he meant. He meant that other men don't see … [Read more...]

If you missed Part I, check it HERE 17) After freshman wrestling season ended I joined Apollon Gym, which is the gym I share a parking lot with today!

Back then, there was nothing fancy for sale. It was barbells, dumbbells and benches. No Hammer Strength. No Cybex. No fancy anything. Just weights. The ads never had photos so you had to imagine and hoped the words describing the equipment were not full of shyt. Remember, this was 20+ years ago and all you had was a sentence or two … [Read more...]
