You're NEVER too old to learn new things. NEVER too old to become better. It's OK to change. Many people take pride in the fact that they will never change. Change means you're evolving. If you evolve, you are growing from within and that is of utmost importance. Without growth, You die. I'm going to challenge you to do some things that you may not be doing..... perhaps you've NEVER done these "things".... perhaps it's been a long time ago.... I'll ALWAYS be here to challenge you. I do … [Read more...]
Underground Home Gym
Above, Dr. Ken Leistner working on his garage gym, a place known for EPIC workouts, rain or shine, brutal temps irrelevant. It was REALLY tempting to find a way to make my Underground Home Gym a bit more cozy.... warmer..... nicer... a sound system to crank heavy tunes on..... But, as the saying goes, give them an inch and they'll run a mile with it. I said to myself, "NO." Make it tougher to train in, more Uncomfortable than comfortable.... NO excuses. It's cold in my garage, I bundle up … [Read more...]

I haven't had a scale of my own since about 10 years ago so I'm gonna start tracking everything & dialing in the nutrition to keep my discipline and goals on track. LOTS of my … [Read more...]

Herschel Walker, My Truth & EVERYONE’S Truth
Last week, during the holidays I was in Disney with the family. Since we drove, I had LOTS of FREE time to catch up on stuff I rarely get to do.... watch TV.

Or, you can say F**k it and punch resistance in the face enough times that he dares to never show up … [Read more...]
Power to The People
MANY years ago Pavel wrote a book called Power to The People, aka P2P. You can find details about it HERE. The book was simply based on optimal training, minimal volume and frequent practice of basics such as deadlifts, military presses and a few other key exercises. The more I grow in the iron game the more I realize that the name of the game is ALL about optimal workouts, NOT maximal. Certainly, when I was younger, I couldn't tame my mind to change..... I HAD to go in and KILL myself … [Read more...]
