"Better to Live Your Dreams Than to Dream Your Life" The USC Cert is a life changing weekend, for those who attend and for myself. I get to meet hungry Strength Coaches.... hungry to turn their passion into profits with a burning desire to leave behind a life that feels unfulfilled with a job that makes them miserable. Been there and done that and it damn near killed me. I am NOT a believer in "Just Do It" without some planning and a strong foundation. I DO, however, believe in … [Read more...]

Passion, Got Some?
If you let your passion slide then you might as well be dead. Question for YOU: Have you let go of something that you were once passionate about because of some Bull Shit excuse? Step UP & get it rolling again. Be accountable, drop a comment, tell the world what you're gonna do to bring your passion back to life again! Peace! --Z-- PS: When I was 13 I KNEW I was gonna open a gym.... a hardcore gym..... I NEVER let the dream go. When I was in elementary and middle school I was die hard for my … [Read more...]
A Day in My Life
Not EVERY post on this Blog will be about lifting. I don't think lifting is the end all be all, perhaps you've heard me use the phrase, 'Kick Ass in Life AND Lifting'? If not, read the book HERE!

Many ask me how I get so much done and still have so much passion and energy on top of such a hectic schedule. Well, # 1, I focus on my passion, … [Read more...]
Fighting Against the Norms of Being Strong, Slow & Weak
I gotta address something ASAP, this is becoming a BIGGER and BIGGER problem. I'm sure this will anger many and then we'll have a few that can argue against this but it's time to unleash some TRUTH. It's starting to piss me off because we have all these "strong" people who can't perform in the "Real World". I'm done with simply chasing a bigger bench, squat and deadlift and you need to end that route as well unless you're a powerlifter and willing to live with the pain that comes with … [Read more...]

Know Thy Self & Live for the Iron
Soul lifting. Here we go, 2nd workout of the day. First workout involved dumbbell quick lifts, bodyweight training and plenty of soft tissue work and mobility.
