I get asked almost every day about running a warehouse gym and what it takes. And, once a week or so, an e mail comes through asking me about CrossFit. Here's Part 1 of a 2 part video on my thoughts on CrossFit. Questions, Comments, Haters.... Post thoughts in the comments section :) Peace! --Z-- Recommended Resources: CrossFit Journal SIC FIT … [Read more...]
One BadAss Book: ‘The 4 Hour Body’ Book Review
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIVmsIJyj3A The trailer pumped me up BIG time. I won't lie. I wanted to Deadlift HEAVY and run FAST as soon as I saw this Video. Sometimes, the trailer is better than the movie, or in this case, the book. https://youtu.be/gm68avm3UVA But, NOT this time. This time, Tim Ferriss kicked some major ass in his latest book, 'The 4 Hour Body'. It was a Friday night in NYC. I was meeting up with my homeboy, BMack, the Mastermind behind CrossFit … [Read more...]
Mobility, Prehab and Rehab – Exposing Your Weakness
Last weekend I had an AMAZING time chillin' AND learning from my homeboy, K Star. I attended his Mobility Cert and it was THE MOST practical seminar I have ever been to. The amount of understanding and conceptual knowledge you gain from this cert is downright crazy. By the way, K Star has got perhaps one of the most BadAss Gyms known to human kind, there are NO walls, no showers and no pretty bathrooms... instead, you'll find the fresh air, TONS of weights from free weights to odd objects to … [Read more...]
Underground T Shirt Inspiration Contest Winner(s)!!
Damn, this was FREAKING TOUGH!! First, I want to thank ALL the BEASTS who submitted their videos. They were truly amazing, seeing how many of you train outdoors, in your garage, at playgrounds, in basements and without the rules yet still kicking ass. The Videos have fired me UP as well as fired up many people around the world!!! The videos submitted for Underground contests in the past were often very cut and dry, you saw them, and you knew which ones were THE most inspiring. Well, this … [Read more...]
Underground Strength Gym Bodyweight & Strength Training Tips
Did John Grimek have it right or what!? He was STRONG, athletic, lean and blended all the training modalities together. We've gotten away from that and everything is extreme left or right. When it comes to your health I am more of a believer nowadays in more balance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxCwyPKFESs More and more of my workouts are becoming bodyweight based. I also include Bodybuilding, Weightlifting, Odd Objects, Powerlifting...... Why choose only one method or style? … [Read more...]
QnA with Tony Blauer: Protect Your Family, Protect Yourself
Many of you who have been reading my blog, watching my videos and reading my e mails know I am passionate about my family. My family is the driving force behind much of what I do.

SEAL Fit, Getting My Ass Kicked & Pushing the Envelope
I've been following some of the workouts from SEAL Fit this past week and adapting them slightly to my own according to injuries and my infancy to the program. My volume is WAY less than they recommend, and those LONG distance ruck walks seem nuts but I'll get into some of their methods more and more with each passing week. Once the rain stops here in The Dirty Jer-Z I'm gonna ride my mountain bike to Uncle Mike's gym, crank a workout then ride home, it will be a solid initial test with … [Read more...]
Gladiators, Firebreathers & The Uncommon Mind
I have the utmost respect for certain people. These people make me step up my training BIG time. All I do is picture them in my head for a fraction of a second. The game changes, completely. These are the poeple who walk the walk and DO rather than talk. It comes without saying when I think of these people. Navy SEALs, Greg Amundson, Spec Ops Military Personnel, Ultra Marathoners...... The list certainly goes on and I would be missing names no matter how many I listed. These men have a … [Read more...]
Man Strength & Training Like a Wrestler
The more I train and the older I get the more I leave out any excuses for people who don't want to train like an athlete. Unless you are specializing in ONE thing, there isn't much of an excuse to stray from all the movements and endless possibilities of working out. I am constantly inspired..... I received a killer t shirt from a man they call "The Firebreather", in english, Greg Amundson. Just wearing his shirt makes me wanna step up my game and not allow myself to go easy. I just hung up a … [Read more...]
