If you've been visiting my Blog for a few weeks you may recall my old post about our young Football Player / Wrestler who carries a 100 lb sand bag on his back after every workout at The Underground Strength Gym. Well, as simple as it is, he is getting to be one strong mofo! His box squats are getting better and bigger.... His tire flips are looking meaner and more explosive..... His traps are starting to stretch through his t shirts.... His competition is paying the … [Read more...]
Inside the Gladiator training program
Every Friday our 'Gladiator Crew' shows up to battle it out with some intense training. A powerful mixture of powerlifting, strongman, old school bodybuilding and calisthenics are incorporated. They never know what might come next. Will it be a powerlifting focused workout, possibly tons of old school bodybuilding, or maybe an entire day of body mastery where we use nothnig but their own bodyweight? … [Read more...]
Stay away from egos and assholes, Part II
First off, thanks to all who responded to my "personal blog post" late last night. The responses have been very motivating to me. As you can see, I am very emotionally driven when it comes to training and life in general. If you personally know me, you cna attest to this :) I also know that not everyone will be on the same page as I am, and I don't expect them to. It does remind me of some very funny instances though, where I was told by a friend and colleague of mine how a big name strength … [Read more...]
My most personal blog ever
Wow, the past few weeks have been quite the whirl wind. I was feeling run down for a good 2 or 3 weeks, but somehow fighting things off. Probably adrenaline. I am pretty wired and can tough things out as needed. Slowly, slowly my strength and energy levels dropped until I finally hit a wall. I took 2 days off from all my work and didn't train for a good 8 or 9 days. I have NEVER taken this much time off since age 22 right after I graduated college when I took a good 3 or 4 weeks off from … [Read more...]
Crazy Strikes Again
There's no doubt about it, I'm a crazy man, a mad man if you will. There is also a method to my madness. Sometimes, crazy is good, other times, you must know how to tame your wild side. I've been molding my craziness through years and years of experience on myself and while training others, not while pushing keyboard buttons and claiming to be a tough guy. I have my flaws, but I'm always working on improving those flaws. I'm relentless on attacking flaws and weak points and you … [Read more...]
Apollo’s “TOUGH Gym”
Have you ever seen Rocky III where Apollo takes Rocky back to the old school gym he used to train at where everyone has the "Eye of the Tiger"? That gym look liked a shit sty, there's no two ways about that. But, regardless of the equipment, or the fact that this was a movie, I have seen how atmosphere can make all the difference in the world when it comes to results. Follow a crappy strength program in a high energy, eye of the tiger environment and watch results come faster than a speeding … [Read more...]
Smokes, Drinks and Can Still Kick Your Ass
Back when I was paying my way through Grad School I was bartending on weekends at a shot and beer joint. Bar tending was also mixed with bouncing. Saturday nights got wild because bands played most Saturday nights. It was often standing room only and because this was a shot and beer joint, the drinks went fast and people regularly consumed an average of 8 drinks no problem. I met some serious drinkers, who smoked quite heavily as well, who worked at the nearby factories and industrial plants. … [Read more...]

Why I’m The Anti Purist When It Comes To Training Methods & What REALLY Matters?
I'm an anti purist when it comes to strength and performance training. I don't use only one training tool or only one training method. Why? Simple: I am a purist when it comes to training for Results. Results are THE only thing that matters..... … [Read more...]
