PSA: Time to Build TOUGHER Athletes Again

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

I was training with my old buddy and training partner last week and we started ranting about how much things have changed. When my buddy and I began training together on the regular, he was a teenager and I was 22. My mind drifted to how things used to be and I'm sure we sounded like crank old men yet I am 45 and my buddy is 40. The world is changing and if you can't see it then you're lining yourself up to be in trouble. Watch this Video as I share what needs to happen in this world..... … [Read more...]

Rebuilding the Body, Fixing Old Injuries & Always Learning

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

I remember my left shoulder and right knee feeling the pain by the time I was 16 years old. At the time of this writing, I am 44. Time flies yet I have never stopped training, EVER. What am I to do? Sit home? On the couch? Do that and you literally become the couch. Training must go on. I must continue to learn and evolve. Not just for myself, but for all the athletes I train. Coaching others is a privilege. When an athletes tells me this or that hurts, I ALWAYS have an answer and a solution. … [Read more...]

Max Effort Training Tips for Athletes & Sports Performance

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

Athletes need to be strong, there is NO question about it. With all the fads and gimmicks, some athletes think they need a program of all speed or all agility, and they believe they are “strong enough”. This is not the case. Heavy lifting and struggling take guts. It is HARD. It requires a strong mindset and being ready to fight and never give up. Speed work does NOT require this ‘never say quit’ attitude. Don’t fool yourself, you are NOT strong enough. It's NEVER a case of JUST speed … [Read more...]

5 Tips for Training Athletes for Strength AND Toughness

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

There's a lot of chatter going on regarding training athletes for speed and strength. Some coaches feel we're not doing enough speed / sprint work. Others realize that MANY athletes are too weak to sprint properly. And, have we forgotten? We need athletes to be TOUGH. Give kids an opportunity to train on their own in a weight room today and you'll see some benching and lots of "chest work" and of course, lots of curls. NO back training. NO DEEP Squats. Farmer … [Read more...]

Farmer Carries Are Great, But…..

by Zach Even - Esh Leave a Comment

Before I even owned my gym I met up with some guys who were competitive strongmen. I was training out of my garage mostly, here and there going to the local tire yard for some tire flips..... It was Saturday and it was their day of training events. I remember getting destroyed with their 220 lb farmer walks and some of their guys jogged with the weight. I was fired up ​and got chatting with these guys about their programming and made my adjustments. At the time, my lower body … [Read more...]

The “Crowd” Wants Sets & Reps But Coaching MUST Go BEYOND Sets & Reps

by Zach Even - Esh 4 Comments

Above, The Crew at The Underground Strength Gym (Middlesex, NJ) Whenever I speak at a conference I tend to not speak about the exercise specifics, the sets, the reps..... First off, the majority of the speakers ARE going to speak on this. Secondly, you will find a GREAT deal of carry over in what we do when you organize a bunch of speakers. Why? Because what works will continue to work for many decades and centuries to come. The fads and gimmicks work on instagram or youtube, in the weight … [Read more...]

3 Reasons To Train Like A SAVAGE

by Zach Even - Esh 13 Comments

Men need to train like uncontrolled savages & stop being so damn pretty when it comes to training & workouts. Start doing this at least SOME of the time. Not all of the time, but 1 x week, make it happen. Intense, Uncomfortable, Tough Workouts are GREAT for the mind AND body. The body is always capable of more, but through those perfect workouts that follow the perfect program design system and the best sets and reps, you NEVER truly develop your Inner Savage. I love telling the … [Read more...]

We Need MORE People Getting Farm Boy STRONG

by Zach Even - Esh 8 Comments

farm boy strong

Too many Coaches have gotten entirely too nice with athletes and their training. Or, they refuse to learn and refuse to change, in turn doing dangerous and stupid training that either doesn't work and / or injures athletes. "This is how I always trained....." is what they say. Small minds refuse to change. Small minded people never succeed beyond their own mind. Don't be "that guy". Everyday is a learning opportunity. I learn everyday, not just from other coaches, but from my athletes as I … [Read more...]

Warrior Workouts [March 2015], Random Thoughts & Various Inspiration

by Zach Even - Esh 9 Comments

 I am always finding inspiration. For some reason, everything I see inspires me in some shape or form. I am inspired to be better than I currently am as well as to not be like the things I see that bother me. I've tried to change, to calm down, to be less intense or less serious or even less passionate but it lasts very little. I'm just not a calm guy who lets things slide. I'm intense, passionate and fired up. It's like telling Dan Gable to stop being so intense. It doesn't work. It will … [Read more...]
