Interview with Sean Hyson Co-Creator of 'How To Get Published - Writing Domination In The Fitness Industry' Back around 2004 or so when I was training wrestlers & football players out of my garage I was also writing for Men's Fitness.

7 Training Tips To Help You Kick Ass & Take Names
Lots of Coaches & Lifters get confused with what to do, when to do it, how to do it, etc. Paralysis by analysis will get you nowhere. Too many people make it ALL very complicated. When I train athletes, regardless of their age, and by the way..... I consider everyone I train an athlete, it doesn't matter whether they compete in sports or not. The MOST Important Sport Is That of LIFE. Back on track. I used to complicate the hell out of training and it's because I was getting caught up … [Read more...]
Arnold’s New Book & Underground Strength E Book Give Away
[youtube width="640" height="360"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaS90MgCpmE[/youtube] I've mentioned often how powerful and critical it is for you constantly be reading books that inspire, educate and motivate you. If you travel a lot, then mix your books up with audio books and physical books, as I do. As you can see below, I've been listening to AND reading Arnold's latest book, Total Recall. I've been a BIG time Arnold fan since I was 13, and in high school, I read his book, The … [Read more...]
George Hackenschmidt, The Russian Lion – Wisdom From 1908
In 1908, the book 'The Way to Live' was released. Here is one of my favorite quotes from the book: "It is a well known fact that the majority of men today are relatively weak, whereas the struggle for existence demands now more than at any previous epoch that we should all be strong!" I assume back then, MANY thought George Hackenschmidt, aka The Russian Lion, was crazy, strange and weird.... you know, all the good words people tend to use when describing anyone who isn't fitting in with … [Read more...]
Navy SEAL Life Lessons & The SEALFit 20 X Challenge
The year was 1993. I was 17 years old and had to wrestle off for the opportunity to wrestle in the districts my senior year. I clearly remember that quickly into the match I had a feeling of rapid fatigue in my muscles and lungs. I remember being frightened as fear quickly crept into my thoughts about how my body felt. I shut down and felt scared. I lost that wrestle off. I remember packing up my wrestling locker into a black garbage bag, and it was symbolic of a body bag at the time. It was … [Read more...]
Interview With Navy SEAL, Brad McLeod – Part III
1) How have you applied the lessons you've learned as a Navy SEAL to succeed in other areas of your life? That is a good question, Zach, as those lessons have been my guiding light in years that followed. I learned how not to quit at BUD/S. As you know I went through BUD/S twice so I had many times where I could have quit but I chose not to. … [Read more...]
Grease The Groove (GTG) For Greater Strength [Training for Life]
Grease The Groove is a technique I learned many years ago when reading a book from Pavel, Power To The People. Essentially, you perform an exercise of choice several times a day, several times a week (4 - 7 x week), each and every set performed when you are fresh without going to muscular fatigue. Usually, this works best when performing the practice exercise for anywhere from 2 - 4 weeks. There are several ways to apply Grease The groove (GTG) for maximum effect. … [Read more...]
HARD Training & HARD Living
It's good to get away from your same ol' environment more often than you think you should.Kinda like Arnold's early days when he and a training partner would haul 250 lbs and a barbell to the woods, perform 50 sets of squats until they couldn't stand let alone walk. Away from the gym, the distractions of rules, the perfect set - rep combo, the water fountain and of course, "normal people". Yesterday I took a ride up into the quiet northern NJ hills to train The Blair Academy Wrestling Team. I … [Read more...]

Set A NEW Standard & Raise The Bar HIGHER
"He who knows others is wise. He who knows himself is enlightened. He who conquers others has physical strength. He who conquers himself is strong." There is a BIG problem with people today, of ALL ages. It's NOT everyone, but damn, this BS is running rampant. If everyone would apply themselves to the 20 X factor described in yesterday's blog, we would ALL be so freaking successful it isn't even … [Read more...]
