Quite often I feel like a man all alone on a stranded island. Where the hell are all the dedicated, hard charging SOBs I ask myself? Still, I get e mails and messages on the daily asking me how I stay so motivated and hungry to succeed in all areas of my life. 1 of the BIG reasons is because I HATE Mediocrity. I HATE 2nd best or 2nd place. It wasn't always like that. I didn't start getting that inner drive of being pissed off for greatness until I was 19 or 20. … [Read more...]

Speed Coach Asks: Strength Training WithOUT A Weight Room?
I recently had a Coach who is running Speed Training Camps for athletes ask about incorporating Strength work while out on the field as they have No access to the weight room. This is a GREAT question and I am psyched to hear from a Coach who understands that being STRONG is integral to the development of speed. To some, being without a weight room is seen as a dilemma, for me, this is where I was born & bred, lifting heavy objects in backyards and empty fields.Nothing fancy about what … [Read more...]

I Will NOT Be Broken
"I Will NOT Be Broken" Above, Mike Valley at The T&F Outdoors Sports Shop from Edison, NJ. I bought my first Ugly Stick fishing pole from that store, which no longer exists. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_WPaMxLyuc I've known of pro skateboarder, Mike Vallely, since I was in elementary school and he was a teenager tearing up the streets and roof tops of Edison, NJ.

What to Do When Powerlifting Sucks?
This scenario might anger many, but, it may also be a stone throw away from happening to you. Check out this e mail and see my thoughts below: Zach, Just wanted to send you an email to let you know how much I appreciate how many bodyweight resources you are giving us.

During my time there I developed chronic neck injuries that left me with Thoracic Outlet Syndrome. … [Read more...]

Overhead Lifting Mayhem & Shoulder Health
I have a SERIOUS passion for all types of lifting, but, I especially LOVE throwing weights overhead, ALL types of weights. Remember, I'm a SOUL Lifter, rules need NOT apply. Discriminate against NOTHING that makes you stronger. In this Video I timed myself against an array of training tools to clean and press overhead. The variety keeps you from getting bored and each overhead press is slightly different than the next. Your mind must stay focused to handle the details of each … [Read more...]
