The Minimalist Training Program
There will be times in your life when you're super busy. It happens. That is what we call LIFE. It happened to me in my early 20s when life was crazy hectic. I was teaching full time. I was coaching middle school wrestling. I was in my final year of grad school. Life was hectic AND stressful! I was stressed because I was no longer able to follow my normal training split which was 2 days on, 1 day off, totaling 5 sessions per week. Something had to give. I had to find a … [Read more...]

Minimalist Training During the Holidays
December is but a few moments away as is my 46th circle around the sun...... December is the perfect time to transition into a minimalist style of training to ensure you continue training while staying mentally sound during the most hectic time of year. I also have learned through decades of experience is that your training must ebb and flow. You need phases with higher volume and phases of training with a low volume, minimalist approach. I've used this minimalist approach during hectic … [Read more...]
Best Muscle Building Tips with Short Workouts
I recently had a "moment", at least I did in my own mind...... I was feeling a bit run down a few weeks ago and 1 of my training sessions was simply nothing to write home to Mom about. And so I simply thought about these time crunched training (sorry, I hate using that word "workout") sessions I've been having with my athletes at the high school that are limited to 30 minutes. One of the athletes at the end was sweating and had gotten worked quite intensely. He said to myself and the crew, … [Read more...]

I run 2 gyms, train 100-200 athletes every day and most importantly, have 2 kids. I find a way to get my training in so it does not interfere with family time. I train early in the morning or right after taking kids to school. Sometimes, I have 20 minutes. It reminds me … [Read more...]
