Training is for LIFE not just for snapping selfies with your hair looking perfect. Come on. Lift and LIVE on your own terms. Follow NO man, instead, follow your heart and your gut instincts. In this STRONG Life podcast Chad and I discuss the following: … [Read more...]

505 lb Deadlift & Random Thoughts On Training Better
Well, here we are. 2015 is about to end and the New Year's resolutions will start sounding off. The best way to resolve to do anything is to take aggressive action NOW. The most successful people out there don't have more time than you or even more opportunity than you do, they simply take more action.

I challenged myself on the spot and squatted … [Read more...]
Bigger Biceps VS Being Dangerous (And FINALLY Squatting 400+ Lbs Again!)
Let me warn you that the language in this video is NOT WFS (Work / Family Safe).

This holds true for the gym and for life. I always tell you, life and lifting, they are one and the same. I explain how things have changed and why I train the way I train at the age of 39.

The Best Squat Shoes?
~ THE SQUAT POEM ~ My e mails and social media messages are being taken over by questions that have LESS to do with what it takes to be strong and more to do with the shoes one should be wearing, the best belt, etc. I've had people walk into my gym who looked like they NEVER lifted a day in their life and asked me what "training system are you using? Conjugate or linear periodization?" The WRONG questions are being asked. The short cuts, fads and gimmicks are being chased. Yet there is 1 … [Read more...]
