Episode # 66: The Door & A Bronx Tale…in Edison!?
"Nows you can't leave" I was a freshman in college and had creative writing. I seriously fell in love with the class and never knew how much I LOVED writing until I as given free reign to write about anything I wanted to. My Professor's name was Tony, he never told us his last name. Watching the movie, 'A Bronx Tale' was a homework assignment, and then we had to write a reaction paper to it. The movie floored me. I used the door test on every girl I met from age 18 until the last … [Read more...]
Blasting the Iron with Passion!
The gym is the place where I lose myself and find myself. If I can start or finish my day in the gym, it's a way to know I did what others dared not do. I want to train and get after it when I'm in there alone. No excuses, No interruptions, No phone... NO bull shit. No matter what else is going on in this world and in my life, when I'm in the gym, everything goes right. Rusty iron feels best in my hands. Sandbags and stones show love as well. Time to attack training and … [Read more...]
Episode # 64: Flight 518
For weeks I would see different planes flying overhead. I would stare at them, every single one of them. I was beginning to think of not wanting to be on a plane. I was thinking even more about doing what I love, and, how much longer and how many more things will I do in my life that are NOT what I want to do. Would I draw the line? When would I draw the line. Should I suck it up, or have I sucked up enough? For days it felt wrong. Going away again, getting on a plane, and again, doing 1 … [Read more...]
Underground Strength Show # 62 & 63: Rusty Iron, NO Rules Workouts & Mental Toughness
Training doesn't have to be perfect for it to work. Often times, the imperfections are better because they train the mind AND the body as one. They force you to cope with the "resistance" that is more than just the weights. My methods are NOT perfect, they have flaws, but guess what, so does every program. The flaws are beautiful. The challenges are to be wished for. Be grateful for the tough times for anything worth achieving is worth fighting for. Sometimes you just gotta attack your … [Read more...]
Episode # 62: The Leg Crank (from Hell)
This leg crank will rock your lower body BIG time. If you love being sore, go ahead and kill it! **Parden the crappy camera angles & footage, but hey, I'm a 1 man show here, have mercy on me! ha ha** On the flip side, remember, improving performance doesn't come from getting your ass kicked, it comes from smart training. This is a workout I hit from time to time when I want (and Need) an ass kicking. The pace should be fast & furious with this workout, no doubt about it. You can … [Read more...]
Underground Strength Training in Germany!
Wow, check out fellow Undergrounder, Dominik Feischl, killing it in his backyard where he has one heck of an Underground set up. This definitely gives me memories of what was going on in my backyard back when it all began. That's when the gym membership ended and the real gains in strength and rugged muscle began. It's also when athletes who trained under me began dominating their competition like never before! Kill it! --Coach Z-- PS: Want my blue print for Underground strength training? … [Read more...]
Episode # 61: Never Enough!
Do you quit when the going gets tough? Do you let the naysayers bring you down and tell you how bad the economy is? When you're crazy busy, do you skip the workout or do you suck it up and train at midnight when everyone else is sleeping? When you miss a lift, do you cry and go home or do you attack again? When you see a mountain do you stop or do you climb? It's time to kill it, period. I am so f**ing tired of the negative dudes out there crying about the economy, about how busy they are, … [Read more...]
Episode # 60: Are you an addict?
A lot of people telling me they're addicted to the Underground Strength Show! That is insane! And very, VERY humbling. On the flip side, will everyone love or like everything I do or every episode? Heck No! That's life and that's business! You need thick skin if you're gonna put yourself out there. I am not perfect and have many flaws, as does my training. So my advice to you: Whatever you love to do, do it. Don't listen to the naysayers and ignore the jealous ones who will put you down and … [Read more...]
I don’t need no stinkin’ gym!
Today I headed to the playground to kill it an OLD monkey bar type gym. And although I own a gym, I still prefer the outdoors. If I lived in a year round warm weather area, my gym would be constructed with no roof and all outdoor training, very much like the weight pit (the old one) at Muscle Beach where Arnold used to kill it. Check the videos below with a mix of outdoor and indoor training. I know they'll hype you up and give you ideas on how to kill it and begin your very own … [Read more...]
