Return of The Golden Era Bodybuilding Workout
Golden Era bodybuilding is a far cry from many of the bodybuilding methods of today. Today we see circus tricks and pump up weights. The lack of strength focused work is why the bodybuilders of The Golden Era had that thick, dense, rugged physique. The bodybuilders of today rely on chemical warfare rather than building a physique that stays with you for a lifetime. The Golden & Silver Era bodybuilders focused on free weights, heavy lifting, hard work on the basics and no fads or … [Read more...]
Gladiator Garage Gym Workouts
It was The Fall of 2002, and I had drawn the line...... I was up to my neck in work as a grad student plus working full time as a teacher. I was also coaching Wrestling and the season was a few short weeks away. My time was pressed to say the least. Sunday mornings I would wake up and work on research papers from 10 AM until 10 PM. It was the first time in 7 or 8 years that I was unable to make the trek to my favorite hardcore gym, Diamond Gym. I was too busy to drive 30 minutes each way, … [Read more...]

I sometimes wonder why I am so loud and excited and they seem so quiet. I try to calm down and let them take the wheel. I wait to see if they will have intrinsic motivation. A few are animals and show the … [Read more...]
Back to My Roots
I recently stopped at my parent's pad to get some "work" done before tearing it up at The Underground Strength Gym. This is where it ALL began, training athletes and training myself from my parents home. I began my journey as a strength coach and eventually a warehouse gym owner right HERE. I had a few pieces of equipment I snagged from the newspaper classifieds, the local playgrounds and the stones in my parents backyard. Sounds simple but damn did this basic training produce powerful … [Read more...]
Are YOU Full of S**T? The REAL Truth About Success
I get tons of questions EVERY DAY via e mail, facebook, my blog comments, at seminars.... everywhere. Most people are full of sh*t.
