13 Random Tips on Strength, Health & Being REAL

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

Above, The INTEK MODF Trap Bar!  This blog post is an excerpt from my short morning emails that go out via The STRONG Life Newsletter. I must admit, holiday shopping will kick your a**. I am in shock at how people behave and hurt others with zero consideration. I feel like I need a "deload" after shopping yesterday. About 2 weeks ago I shared some tips on my birthday and received a lot of great feedback. I believe it was 32 tips. Today, I share some random thoughts on Mondays, … [Read more...]

Hatfield Squats + Lower Body Workout Explained

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

It's been a while since I've done the Hatfield Squat. These were popularized by Dr. Fred Hatfield aka Dr. Squat. The safety bar on the other hand was originally created by Jesse Hoagland of Trenton, NJ. Hence, it was originally called The Hoagland Bar. Fred Hatfield used this bar and popularized it. In turn, it started getting known as "The Hatfield Bar" or "The Safety Squat Bar". The photo below is one of the original bars which I believe was built in the early 80s, possibly 1982. I … [Read more...]

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...]

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

  The older you get, the more intelligent you must become with your training. Your intensity gets dialed in and you certainly can't do the crazy shyt you did in your teens, 20s and even your 30s.

Strength Training in Your 40s: MAN STRENGTH

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

As we "get older", there comes a point in time where you must ensure that you are capable. The excuses of age, time and anything else are really all just BS. At the time of this writing I am creeping up on age 46. I don't chase the 1RM anymore but I still lift heavy with the basics. I make sure my heart is pumping with sleds and hill sprints. Some of you have airdyne bikes and rowers, this is excellent. Bodyweight Training is a must. You should always be able to squat, lunge, pull … [Read more...]

Strength Coach Business “Advices”

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

I have shared hundreds and hundreds of videos and podcasts regarding the business aspect of being a Strength Coach / gym owner. At the time of this writing, I see more craziness in the world, less "job security" for strength coaches and still, many Coaches not diversifying their income. I've seen enough Coaches get released (aka fired) from their position and then have to uproot their entire family, including children who are mid way through high school. It is heartbreaking to see this, … [Read more...]

Mid Summer Sale

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

I hope your training is kicking ass!  I gotta tell you, my training is going great. The knee is feeling better and my energy is sky high. Even when The Underground Strength Gym has temps of 90 or 94 degrees, I am energized when I train. I am confused how the kids of today are so tired after training or doing little things like mowing the lawn. Strength is invigorating! Now that August is upon us, it reminds me how the Summer was always a GREAT time to train. I would ride my … [Read more...]

How to Get Stronger & Build Muscle in Your 40s

by Zach Even - Esh 6 Comments

At the time of this writing, my body is on the mend since my knee surgery and blood clot last March, 2021. My knee is not 100% and as we get older, if you have had an injury or a surgery in the past, I believe it is safer to DOUBLE the length of "recovery time" to ensure you don't rush through the full healing process. So if the Doc says 6 months, I do not believe that in 6 months you have the green light to go ALL out. Instead, take months 6 - 12 to rebuild to greater heights. Use … [Read more...]
