5 X 5 Training + Bodyweight Bodybuilding Tips
Yesterday on my IG I shared the above cover and tips on how to use 5 X 5 along with Bodyweight Bodybuilding. Then yesterday afternoon I came across the news that Franco had passed away. It was heartbreaking for me. It hit home for me as Franco and Arnold were heroes to me as a kid. Seeing your hero passing away is crushing. You begin to realize that YOUR time on this earth is also limited. As a kid, I devoured Arnold's Encyclopedia and his Education of a Bodybuilder. Doing so made me … [Read more...]

Back To My Roots: Kettlebell & Bodyweight Workouts
I remember about 6 years ago or so my body was aching constantly. I would walk down the stairs in the morning and my knees would hurt, my feet hurt. My mind was asking WTF is going on here!?! I was sore after training sessions for longer than normal and I felt that my body was sending me signals to STOP lifting weights. That alone was freaking me out as training is how I identify with myself and unleash my emotions. Luckily, I came across some inspiring videos of a few guys working … [Read more...]

Seek a Medical Expert first & foremost and all I discuss below if based on my OWN experience and may or may not work for you. … [Read more...]

Tough times are coming. They are always right around the corner in some shape or form. Training in a manner that connects you to your Inner Warrior is not going to be your typical workout.
