Program Design Tips with Zach & Matt Wenning
There are MANY program design methods and variations that fall under each category of specific styles of program design and program organization. For example, we have the conjugate method, which is essentially an endless array of variations and options. We have progressive overload, aka linear periodization which many people talk down upon yet I have found this to work GREAT with athletes and even for myself. You can use linear progression with conjugate exercise selection. In the … [Read more...]

Passion & The Utter Disdain for Anything Less Than Excellence
When I talk about passion, it's hard to not think about Tom Platz! And of course, who was a BIG inspiration to Tom? It was none other than Dr. Squat himself, Fred Hatfield! Most people will never understand Platz's intensity (insanity) in his training but to me, it ALL makes sense. When I was a teenager and in my early 20s, before smart phones were around and the ability to film my training happened, I trained "crazy". But, I could NOT hold myself back. I couldn't stop myself. I HAD to … [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...]

QnA: Ranger Selection Training, In Season Workouts & Strength Coach EXCELLENCE
Sometimes ya gotta pack your bags and move on. Staying in the same space, doing the same thing and lack of self evolution is the ultimate way to stress yourself out. You can be good at a lot of stuff or GREAT on a select few areas of your life that you are REALLY passionate about. Focus on the few, NOT the many. In the videos below I address a few different topics that come to me quite often. Although the questions are the same, often times the answers must change according to the … [Read more...]

I'm coming off a high after last weekend's USC Cert + Travis Mash's Learn 2 Lift Seminar. We blend our 2 methods together because it all blends perfectly. It's a combination of our almost 60 years of combined training knowledge. I think that makes us Senior Citizens of STRENGTH.... kinda. The Blending of....
