Enjoy the audio interrogation with Coach Mark Rippetoe. Apologies for the little static during the first 2 minutes but it clears up after the 2 minute mark. Have mercy on me as my office is out of a military back pack since moving out and awaiting for our new home to be ready and I don't have a land line :) Regardless....The information in this interview is Golden and make sure you READ the article linked below. It is what I would call EPIC!!". … [Read more...]
The Art of Living
I receive countless e mails asking me how I get so much done without fail. How I balance my business with family life, lifting, answering e mails, vacations, and more? I'm also starting a NEW business (On the DL for now) and just bought a new house. I do my best to answer in the video below. If you have good stuff to add about YOUR 'Art of Living', feel free to drop a line! Peace --Z-- PS: This is perhaps the BIGGEST success that comes from attending The Underground Strength Coach … [Read more...]

The ONE Exercise You MUST DO
Wanna get strong as Hell? Or, in Dan John's words, "this one exercise will make you awesome" Watch this short video. That's me, throwing around a 130 lb dumbbell. The movement: The 1 Arm Dumbbell Clean & Press. Equally awesome with a barbell. I suggest you do it. And do it often.

Henry Rollins on Iron, Strength, Pain & Greatness
Article by Henry Rollins 'Iron' I believe that the definition of definition is reinvention. To not be like your parents. To not be like your friends. To be yourself. Completely. When I was young I had no sense of myself. All I was, was a product of all the fear and humiliation I suffered. Fear of my parents. The humiliation of teachers calling me "garbage can" and telling me I'd be mowing lawns for a living. And the very real terror of my fellow students. … [Read more...]
Isn’t It Amazing…
Kicking Ass isn’t for everyone. Period. It’s too hard. I’m too tired. It’s too expensive. A family emergency came up. I’m busy. I don’t have time. Excuses piss me off. On the flip side, excuses are fine by me because that makes it easier to get to the top. Those who win have no excuses. They bull doze through anything that gets in their way. If something goes wrong, they take responsibility and learn from their mistakes. There is no..... Next year... Next time... My … [Read more...]

Days of Thunder Bodybuilding…..
It was September of 1994. I was training at a now defunct gym, it was legit "hardcore", called Dynamic Fitness. Such a shame that it had to end, but it did. I'll never forget that gym. It shaped me and inspired me for a lifetime..... My friend and aspiring pro bodybuilder was there catching a workout and I told him of my plans to compete in a bodybuilding show for 1995. He said "Train with me, I'm doing the Jersey in April and we can train together". I was psyched! Andy was a freak. He was … [Read more...]
