When I first began training in my early teens, I trained quite wrong, unfortunately. I used both machines and free weights, but I didn't go heavy on either. I did TONS of volume and it halted my strength gains.

I was told to feel & squeeze the muscle, the weight doesn't … [Read more...]

Training In Your 40s VS Training High School & College Athletes
The older you get, the harder the training gets! It's tougher to make gains and you can forget about that "maintenance" BS program. If you're not getting better, you're getting worse. I NEVER use the word "maintenance" when training anyone, including in season for athletes. Think about it, how weak does it sound when you say I'm just trying to maintain. It sounds like you fear the work. It makes me wonder, how long can my message of hard work and consistency on the basics live on … [Read more...]
Golden Era Strength & Muscle Building Lessons from Irvin “Zabo” Koszewski
