How to Prepare Yourself for The Police Academy

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

Recently I was at a commercial gym and about to head out after my training session until 1 of the guys introduced himself to me and asked me if I was a cop. He had seen me training as I went back and forth in superset style fashion. He thought I was in training for something but that fast paced training is common for me. It's funny because I used to get that question quite often back when I buzzed my head, people thought I was in the Military or Law Enforcement. Anyway, we got chatting when … [Read more...]

Are You Allergic to HARD WORK?

by Zach Even - Esh 3 Comments

Because they're allergic. … [Read more...]

Am I Crazy Or What?

by Zach Even - Esh 9 Comments

Am I Crazy or is this normal? As a Coach, Strength Coach, Sports Coach, ANY Coach - I sometimes wonder what it would be like if I just SUCKED! You know, just come home and sit on the ol' couch after my team got destroyed in the latest game and I don't even care. I still get paid. No one bothers me because I don't bother anyone else. Kids skip practice and guess what, I don't even care. I just let it slide. My team hasn't been better than .500 since the dinosaurs roamed the earth and I don't … [Read more...]

1 Exercise Per Workout & Being AWESOME

by Zach Even - Esh 29 Comments

It was New Year's Eve... well, just about. It was 3 PM on New Year's Eve and the dedicated crew of athletes & lifters rolled up to The Underground Strength Gym in Edison, NJ. Some had traveled as far as 1 hr to drive here & I let the thought enter my mind.... "Where are the kids who live 5 - 10 minutes away from here who keep telling me they're too busy during the season?" Instead of getting disappointed I get fired up by reminding myself to have ZERO expectations of people. I get … [Read more...]

“Might As Well Be A Savage” & Thoughts On “Training For Life”

by Zach Even - Esh 15 Comments

One thing you'll notice about this generation of bodybuilders, LEOs and even athletes..... They are NOT built with that look of strength. They are too concerned with details that don't matter. They want the perfect training program where everything looks perfect. Side raises instead of Military Press. Glute Med isolation instead of SQUATS. Pec Deck instead of Weighted Dips. I recall seeing State Troopers who were 6 ft plus on the regular and looking like they could destroy you with … [Read more...]
