EXTRA Workout for the SOUL
Lots of questions always fill the in box with "How do you train, Zach" - so, this is me, on an "off" day, doing some extra work, training that won't get me sore but helps with conditioning and keeps me mentally sane as I have a tough time laying off from any form of exercise. On these extra days I simply train by feel. Remember, I'm a SOUL Lifter and now that I live by the beach my workouts will be returning back to a form similar to my younger days when me and my buddies would go on crazy … [Read more...]
NO Limits Workouts
Check out Part II of my last workout video, 5 Rounds of Hell, The Underground Strongman Circuit. I step it up a notch, NO limits, hitting 60 lbs on the chin ups. Round 3 starts getting tough, Round 4 was Brutal and Round 5 kicked my ass BIG time. After 3 Rounds this workout was purely mental. It woulda been easy to call it a day, but I was dead set on completing 5 rounds. Not all workouts look like what you see above. Yesterday's workout was: Squats: 7 x 3 Reps Deadlifts: 10 x 2 Reps Later … [Read more...]

Train Like a Mad Man
I had a goal of Trap Bar Deadlifting 225 lbs for 50 reps. It was easy, mainly because I didn't allow myself the option to fail. I did fail, however, in my ability to count.

I Warmed up.... calisthenics of all types - recline row on the ropes, bear crawls, pull ups, t push ups, leg raises while upright on the dip bar, v ups holding a 10 lb med ball..... Then it … [Read more...]
Get Comfortable Being Uncomfortable
I woke up earlier than normal today. It was tempting to stay in bed, shut off my alarm and just wait until my kids jumped on my bed to wake me up. The temptation lasted all but a few seconds. The thought of even considering to hit the snooze button fired me up and so I got out of bed immediately. The mind often tells you one thing and the body another. You must remember, the mind drives the body. Your habits can make or break you. If I slept in, it would have eaten at me all day and I … [Read more...]
