This episode of The STRONG Life Podcast is close to my heart. Andy "IronMac" McKenzie is a former paratrooper in the British Army.

Within 18 months, he was back to parachuting and full … [Read more...]

Putting In The SWEAT Equity VS Complainers
It's shocking how many people only want the FREE things. Not just free in regards to money, but also free in regards to effort. It's a sign of the times and as a Strength Coach, I feel it's my duty to change this. If you're a Strength Coach, you should feel the same obligation.

WHY You MUST Earn It & Respect It!
I was in Vermont at SPARTAN HQ with 15 other Underground Strength Coaches. 2 days in a row we trekked up the mountain behind Joe DeSena's house and although I had been to the top before, it never gets old at the top.
