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...]

Strength Training Confusion, How Much Volume & THE Haters

by Zach Even - Esh 2 Comments

This is an in depth video on answering the common questions, misconceptions on volume training vs low volume training (especially if you're a natural lifter or a competitive athlete) and then I address the haters. It all began after 2 posts were made on Instagram. The first post was on Kevin Tolbert, which you can see below. As of my writing, there are almost 100 comments which is not the norm for my social media which doesn't get much action. … [Read more...]

Are You Training Too Hard? Injuries? Lack of Progress?

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

Training too hard...... Who would have thought I would ever bring this topic up because if you go to a local gym, you'll see people sitting and lying on benches in between their sets, head down and locked in on their PHONE. It's crazy, people don't even get up between sets. But, for those of you who were training decades ago, perhaps you have gone through the ringer with intensity. And, maybe some of you today are copying the workouts of your favorite instagram lifter but simply don't … [Read more...]

Iron Roots – Ep. 11 – Mike Mentzer aka Mr. Heavy Duty

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

I was 12 years old, maybe 13 when I first came across the training of Mike Mentzer aka Mr. Heavy Duty. I remember thinking to myself, Holy s--t, this guy looks like he's been carved from stone! Mike had a different physique than the others and the photos of him in training were INTENSE. He looked like he was destroying the gym along with his training partners Casey Viator and Ray Mentzer (his brother). With The Iron Roots Podcast, it's important for me to bring back and share many of … [Read more...]

Strength Lessons from The Iron Gladiators of The 80s & 90s

by Zach Even - Esh 6 Comments

Photo Cred: Grégoire Alessandrini / http://www.nyc90s.com  The photo above is from the no longer open, Gladiator Gym. This gym was housed in "Alphabet City" in The East Village of NYC. Pro Bodybuilders used to train there. Hard charging weightlifters trained there. The unspoken rule was simple: Train Your Ass Off. Intensity Rules. This was the story in MANY local gyms back when I was a teen and in my early 20s. So when I was a teen and in my early 20s, the way I learned was by getting under … [Read more...]

Top 5 Benefits Of Minimalist Style Workouts

by Zach Even - Esh 20 Comments

"Simplicity Is The Key To Brilliance" - Bruce Lee I was driving up to Diamond Gym on a cold winter night. It was just past 5 PM and I was sitting in a boat load of traffic, literally, moving nowhere. I was stressed out of my mind, up to my ears in work for Grad School, teaching, coaching wrestling and trying to manage it all. It was the FIRST time in my life I was truly finding it difficult to find the time to train.... … [Read more...]

Purposeful Primitive Book Review

by Zach Even - Esh 5 Comments

Above, Kirk Karwoski, world record powerlifter trained under Marty Gallagher, Author of The Purposeful Primitive. One week ago I got a new training book I ordered in the mail, 'The Purposeful Primitive'. It's been a while since I got excited about a book that was published in today's day and age. Most of the info I tend to find accurate, effective and awe inspiring is at least a few decades old but this book has shocked me! All I can say is this: Holy s**t is this book rockin' my world! … [Read more...]
