The Four Pillars of Transformative Fitness by Marty Gallagher
The Four Pillars of Transformative Fitness To succeed, radical physical transformation need be simultaneously multidimensional. Let us do something rarely done in fitness; let us speak philosophically. What are we doing and why are we doing it? Why are we exercising and dieting? Why are we lifting weights, performing cardio and eating with discipline? Why do we spend money at GNC? Why do we pay personal trainers to train us? Why are fad diet books huge sellers? Why has fitness grown into a … [Read more...]

Do You Ever Feel Like You Don’t Fit In? GOOD!
I feel like I just don't fit into this world anymore. Do you ever feel like that? I recall that feeling many times as a kid and a teenager. MANY times.

28 Years of Lifting: Strength Training In Your 40s & Training As You Get Older
This is the article I dreaded ever having to write; "Training as you get older" or "Training in your 40s". Before I move forward, understand, these are my experiences. My experiences don't make anything universal or the end all, be all laws. Other guys my age might have a different training experience under their belt and in turn, they don't have the same mindset or physical experiences. Back up almost 30 years and I began training in June 1989, some 2 weeks before 8th grade ended. I was … [Read more...]

Training In Your 40s & Strength Coach Start Up Tips
I can't believe I am writing an article about "Training in your 40s"..... I remember training in my teens and 20s. The saying Time goes fast is a severe understatement! The Ultimate Warrior used to tell me that he would give a handful of his years to go back to his 20s and "Feel that f--in' Power!" That being said, training in your 40s is different for everyone. I've been training since age 13 so the mileage of hard and heavy training has beaten me up. If you're in your 40s and haven't done … [Read more...]
