Squat Life + BEST Advice a Coach Ever Gave Me

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

The world is a dangerous and crazy place. If you're not strong both physically and mentally, then you are a threat to yourself and those around you. My training is not focused on chasing the numbers. I am too old for that. I chase the work. I chase the end goal of being ready, so I never feel or act like those "cold, timid souls" who always have excuses. This video takes you inside my training on a lower body day as well as my mindset / attitude towards being combat ready. … [Read more...]

Conditioning Workouts That Toughen the Mind AND Body

by Zach Even - Esh 2 Comments

I got fired up to attack some conditioning workouts after my man, Joe Kenn, aka HOUSE aka BIG DAWG created a new IG account, Meathead Metabolics. I love ALL types of training but my Right Knee has been an issue and running pains me. So, I find other methods to raise the heart rate without pounding the knees. Below are a few conditioning workouts that serve a purpose of hardening the mind and body. A good ol' gut check if you will. I think we need these once a week. Comfort is the enemy … [Read more...]

When Athlete “Strength & Conditioning” Goes Wrong?

by Zach Even - Esh 4 Comments

If you're a pitcher, do you need to run 2-3 miles after a game to "get rid of the lactic acid in your arm"? If you're a shot putter / thrower, do you and the entire spring track team need a 5K warm up? Every Day? If you're a freshman in high school and play Football, should you train the same as the upperclassmen and get tested on your 1 RM for the Squat, Bench and Clean? Training doesn't need to be complicated but people are making it complicated simply by NOT using common sense and … [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...]

How To Improve The Current State Of Youth Sports / Youth Strength & Conditioning

by Zach Even - Esh 8 Comments

More and more I begin to question if we can make a change to our youth sports programs and most of all, our youth Physical Education programs. My own answer to this dilemma? YES, change CAN be made. It is being made inside many Strength & Conditioning Facilities BUT there are flaws to this because parents must pay for their kids to train at these independent gyms such as my own gym. When parents have to pay for a service you quickly lose 85+ percent of kids you can potentially impact. This … [Read more...]

The Problem With Strength Training Advice On The Internet

by Zach Even - Esh 8 Comments

Here's a little news flash that will hurt many people's feelings: Just because you see it on YouTube doesn't mean it's what ALWAYS happens in that person's training. Just because the guy behind the camera is ripped doesn't mean he knows more about training than the other Coach. The internet has given us opportunity to learn as much as we want, not all of it good and not all of it accurate. The opposite holds true as well, there is some amazing and powerful information out there that was once … [Read more...]

How to Kick Ass in Life AND a Warehouse Gym

by Zach Even - Esh 14 Comments

There are those who "Get it" and those who simply don't "Get it". Some struggle with how to train athletes, having no system of their own, no time in the trenches and too much time on their ass sitting in front of a computer and in the books, NO Real World application. Some try opening their business and quickly crumble and fall out of "business". Some see adversity and cower away, while others stare it straight in the eyes and keep charging. Some have a laundry list of excuses and very few … [Read more...]

Endless Lessons Learned from The Underground aka “Old School” Bodybuilding & Strength Training Methods

by Zach Even - Esh 9 Comments

In the 50s and 60s, strength sports were a small "Underground" cult. Even in the 70s. Until Arnold hit the big screen, bodybuilding and literally building your body was viewed as something only a narcissist would do. Today, of course, being strong, fit and healthy is viewed as "normal". I have been getting back to my roots lately, even with my time crunched workouts, I'm hitting the underground bodybuilding methods and it's paying off big time. When I use the term "Underground", those early … [Read more...]
