You Have No Choice:You MUST Be Strong!

by Zach Even - Esh 57 Comments

I have no pictures for you this time around. No videos. No cool graphics, no flashy anything. These are my words, not hidden or lifted with any technological gizmo. i wanted to share what I went through, and pass my thoughts on to you. Because if you've been to my Blog before, you know it's about "Pay it Forward." I hope this lifts you, educates you and helps you, in some way, shape or form. I just spent 1 & 1/2 days in / out of the hospital after something my son experienced. My son … [Read more...]

Old School Strength with Sandbags & Gymnastics

by Zach Even - Esh 4 Comments

Wow, I was just perusing through my book shelf and stumbled across two books: one from 1888 (Yes, 1888, NOT a typo) and 1 from 1947. 1 Book on Gymnastics and the other on using sandbags, medicine balls, logs and homemade fitness equipment and obstacles. Amazing stuff! Well, the pics are amazing, the language is foreign and unfortunately I can not read them :( This "stuff" has been around for centuries. In some countries, stone lifting is part of their culture. And, during certain times in … [Read more...]

No Respect for Basic Strength Training? Lift in the Garage

by Zach Even - Esh 9 Comments

I have had some interesting conversations with Jim Wendler. One in particular struck a chord with me quite heavily. In fact, it has helped mold a process I use at my gym when training new athletes. Jim and I spoke about the lack of respect for the weights nowadays, specifically by those who spend too much time on the internet and at these fancy gyms. I see how kids casually skip workouts that their parents pay for without a care in the world. I see how countless high school athletes don’t … [Read more...]

he trained with me in my Dad’s garage

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

Wow, those were some wild days. Back when I FIRST began taking on clients as a profession, a five bucks per hour profession none the less :) I was training a few athletes from my Dad's garage, his backyard and the local parks. At the time, Kurt, was a high school basketball player. His Dad owned a truck and I offered to train him all summer for free if he can help me pick up some gym equipment. I purchased a long dumbbell rack, a chin - dip combo bar, a boat load of rusty ivanko … [Read more...]

the trail blazer

by Zach Even - Esh 2 Comments

Time for some action. Time to do it your way, finally, not anyone else's way. Seriously. Stop doing what you see everyone else doing. Stop copying the concentration curls, the lat pull downs, the smith machine presses....everything performed seated of course. Every workout does NOT have to be the perfect balance of push / pull, or upper / lower body work. Who ever said that everything must be in total harmony and balance is full of it. Ask the guys in the pen about balance and … [Read more...]
