The Sled Dawg -

Been having just an amazing time with the 4 sled Dawgs that I got from Perform Better a while back.....check out some of the stuff our athletes have gotten into! One of the best investments I have made in years....check out Perform Better for ALL of your conditioning needs.

Rope Training....

Got some great ideas using our manila rope with our athletes. Here is a clip from Anthony Diluglio's "Punch Gym" workouts using VERY simple rope battling drills. If you've never done anything with ropes this will look pretty easy to you......take my word, it's NOT. BTW, Anthony is a kick ass guy and his workouts are NO JOKE...I guarantee a heart rate check on these kids would be enlightening to say the least!

I'm Baaaaaaaaack!

I know, I know...I'm the world's WORST blogger. Hey, what can I say? I'm a busy guy! Anyway, I saw this on the internet today and figured this would be the perfect 1st post after a LONG hiatus! BTW, can we all stop using the phrase "People are smarter than that!". Guess what folks, THEY'RE NOT.

Couple of observations:

1. How in the hell does it take so long for this guy to get stabilized on top of the ball?
2. Is this guy actually SPOTTING this brainiac?
3. I would throw this guy out of my gym if he threw DB's like this genious
4. Even the observing chick decides that this is too ridiculous to watch anymore....

Enjoy.....

No Shortcuts...if you want to be good, you gotta practice!

Todd Wright from The University of Texas showed this clip during his lecture at the Perform Better Summit in Long Beach this past weekend. Sometimes people are too quick to lable someone as a 'natural' talent. This type of stuff fires me up and makes me want to be a better coach!

Warpspeed Fat loss....too good to be true?!

So a while back I promoted the Warpspeed Fat loss program created by my good friends Alwyn Cosgrove and Mike Roussell (author of the nutrition chapter in my book). On my web forum folks have been discussion their experiences on this extreme fat loss program. I think the most important thing to remember is that this program is a brutal fat loss program for FAST FAT LOSS. I have read comments like "Can I continue on this program forever?" or "Does this diet work with the Men's Health Power Training program?" etc. The answer is no.....this is a get in - get out kick ass program that will result in you losing fat fast. Is it too good to be true? Uh no. Why do I say this? Well, it will kick your ass...you will put in the work to say the least BUT you will lose that fat you always wanted to lose. Sales of Warpspeed Fat loss have been booming and the feedback has been nothing short of amazing.

Interval tracks on your IPod!

Okay, so I met a great guy named BJ Gaddour at the Chicago Perform Better 3-day summit. BJ has a company called workoutmuse....they create custom MP3 tracks to drive your entire workout! Amazing stuff guys....BJ and Topher Farrell create some incredible tracks with hard driving music and awesome recovery beats. PLEASE check them out....I have had them create custom tabata tracks along with numerous other cardio programs that are 100% dummy proof. Just put on the headphones, press play, and get your butt KICKED.
