STRONG Life Insider: Ep. 38 | How to Take Ownership & Destroy The “Good Enough” Standard

by Zach Even - Esh 2 Comments

The little things count BIG time. In training, it's where you place your hands on the bar and the position of your feet. In work, it's picking up the thread of garbage on the floor or walking past it. It's doing something for someone before they ask you to do it. Details separate the good from the great. The greats KNOW this while the average do NOT care about the details. … [Read more...]

Strength Coach Tips: Training Youth Athletes VS High School Athletes

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

I must admit, it breaks my heart when I see a “strength coach“ having a 12-year-old kid maxing out on the deadlift or maxing out on the back squat. I'm seeing kids who weigh under 100 lbs performing round back deadlifts, crashing onto a bench for a "box squat", benching while hip thrusting the heavens. This kind of dangerous training gives us ALL a bad name. Parents do NOT know the difference between the Coach who is training a young kid in the same manner of an adult powerlifter. In … [Read more...]

Why You Need Squats & Deadlifts to Strengthen the Mind AND Body

by Zach Even - Esh 2 Comments

Sometimes you gotta clear your head. And for "normal folk", that means getting a few beers, maybe drink some wine. For people like Us, that means squats and deads. Yes, we're organized and planning our training. We've got a goal set, whether it's your first time squatting 315, deadlifting 500 or more, you've got goals. But it goes deeper than that. It's not solely about the numbers. It's about clearing your mind and experiencing what we call Iron Therapy. … [Read more...]

UNSTOPPABLE Mindset: In The Gym & In Life

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

It's awesome to see how strength training has exploded, very much thanks to the internet. On the flip side, I still struggle with being the most fired up guy in the room. At age 43, I should NOT have more fire than the 15 year olds. Those younger years are like bottling up the energy of a rocket ship, you can't let them go to waste, not for 1 day. The things I've seen on social media and heard about in globo gyms downright scares me. So in this article, I want to address attitude and … [Read more...]

Passion & The Utter Disdain for Anything Less Than Excellence

by Zach Even - Esh 2 Comments

When I talk about passion, it's hard to not think about Tom Platz! And of course, who was a BIG inspiration to Tom? It was none other than Dr. Squat himself, Fred Hatfield! Most people will never understand Platz's intensity (insanity) in his training but to me, it ALL makes sense. When I was a teenager and in my early 20s, before smart phones were around and the ability to film my training happened, I trained "crazy". But, I could NOT hold myself back. I couldn't stop myself. I HAD to … [Read more...]
