Strength Training in Your 40s + Minimalist Training Updates

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

These minimalist workouts bring back memories of my years of influence from men like Mike Mentzer and Dorian Yates. When I was 18 and had just won the Young Mr. Israel Bodybuilding Contest (18 years & under) I came home to America and trained very low volume but high intensity. I trained every other day and took 2 days off after leg day. I was extremely inspired by seeing the rugged photos of Mike Mentzer and Dorian Yates. Even though I was natural and still am, I felt that the high … [Read more...]

252: Jim “Bandbell” Seitzer, Early Days Westside Barbell & Old School Bodybuilding

by Zach Even - Esh 2 Comments

STRONG Life Podcast 252 is BEAST! Jim Seitzer started lifting weights in the mid 70s with none other than Louie Simmons. That's right, imagine graduating college and training to be a bodybuilder and on day 1, you see Louie benching 365 at the Ohio State University weight room and when you ask Louie, the strongest guy in the gym for help he says, "Just show up at my house tomorrow!" Jim began training for bodybuilding as a "Power Bodybuilder" in 1976 and went on to become a high level … [Read more...]

Training In Your 40s, Bulgarian Power Burst, Bench Press + Deadlift Tips

by Zach Even - Esh 2 Comments

With my hectic schedule I am going through some short training sessions, around 15-20 minutes a clip. Sometimes I get 2 mini sessions a day and instead of complaining, I simply get it done. Announcing how tired or busy I am is a waste of time. Nobody cares, including myself. I despise even my own excuses. While at school where I coach, I might go through 3-4 exercises as a circuit of 3 - 4 rounds. I've used bodyweight, kettlebells, fat bells and some basic machines (perhaps a lat pulldown or … [Read more...]

The “BEST Way” to Train & Develop Athletes for LONG Term Success

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

Is there a "best way" to train athletes? Many roads can lead to Rome, but the way America is operating with regards to training our youth, only the genetically gifted are thriving. The majority are getting injured and / or burning out emotionally long before they are at the age where they can achieve high levels of athleticism or their true potential . I'm saying this through experience, not guessing. I started training athletes in 1995. Every 5 years or so, I notice another decline in … [Read more...]

Can Deadlifts Cure Your Back Pain?

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

My back was going into spasms on the craziest things: doing dishes, warm ups with DB side raises,  bent over row with a light barbell. It felt like a shot of lightning was hitting me in the back. I spoke to some "experts" and they all insisted I was having disc issues. I got tired of hearing how the world was going to end with my "bad back" and decided to go back to something I did in 1996 after my first knee surgery. What is that very thing? Listening to my OWN body & figuring it out on … [Read more...]

Old Training Methods for New Results

by Zach Even - Esh 2 Comments

At age 44, I am still learning and evolving with my training. 31 years into training and unlike many lifters and coaches, I am not moving forward with a closed mind. Listen, if you want to get better, you need an open mind. You need to have the hunger and desire to keep learning and keep improving. A closed mind helps no one. I've been adding a few new things for me but they are not new in the realm of training methods. Some of these training methods that I have started implementing with … [Read more...]

Shoulder Health, Deadlifts & 1989 YMCA Weight Room Stories

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

I remember as a kid reading Arnold's bodybuilding books and his Encyclopedia mentioned how he uses Deadlifts. He said to do "a few sets of a few reps". I took that as keeping it fast & furious, never killing the Deadlift or it will kill you. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 and done. 3 x 3. 2 x 2. Any of the simple combos above seem to work very well. I recall when I Deadlifted 545 I never went heavier than 405 in training. Of course, I squatted heavy, did various rowing exercises, weighted … [Read more...]
