Over Training Bullshit Part 2
Like I said in the last post over training is a gym term. For years my dad drove a tractor trailer and moved furniture he drank, smoked and didn't have the greatest diet but he was never sick and worked every day he never called in sore. But most gym trainers get their information from the gym and the people who train there. Most personal trainers can take an online course or a weekend class … [Read more...]
Over training bullshit! Part 1
Really, over training? When someone gets injured the first thing most people think is they are over training. I do believe people need to rest but the majority really think by treadmill training or kettle bell swinging or doing hundreds of pushups they are over training.

Building Nontraditional Strength
Building Nontraditional Strength I believe in building real world strength. When I train I can care less about having a six pack when it comes to abs. I don’t use traditional ab exercises, my everyday training see’s to that. I train with total function in mind very rarely do I do any ab exercise just to do them. Pretty boys that like the plank is fine, I’m not trying to build … [Read more...]

The One Brutal workout everyone hates, but I love! What’s the one workout everyone has done at least one time in their lives and hate?
