Will Anyone Ever Squat In Peace Again?
I feel bad for this generation of lifters. I'd say that 99.99999999% will NEVER know what it's like to JUST train for the sake of training and have NO phone around them.

The beauty and purity of a training session where / when there were NO cell phones is beyond what my words can describe. When I was 17 years old, my buddy … [Read more...]
STOP Looking For A Substitute
This blog post will make me sound like a cranky old guy talking about "back in the day" but the truth is, even though I am 40 now, I remember feeling this way when I was 30. The photo above is from our forum for Garage Gym Gladiators. Matthew got me fired up because he did what I want everyone to do: FIND A WAY. You can find a way or you can find an excuse.

12 Lessons From A Never Ending Podcast with John Welbourn & Jim Steel

Overtraining VS UNDER-Training Your Mind
The mind is the key. Let me explain. I began training in 1989...... Experiences from my own training and in training 1,000 + athletes, I have seen some crazy SHYT happen. How can a lazy athlete who lives a poor lifestyle accomplish sports accolades that the hardest, "perfectly" trained athletes can't come near achieving? The Answer: Mindset / Attitude Going back 1995, I was preparing for a bodybuilding show and training with others who were "chemically enhanced". I let it get to my head a … [Read more...]
