So I was talking to another trainer the other day and the 'spiderman push-up' came up. When this trainer demonstrated the exercise for me, it looked nothing like the one that I use...nothing like the ones my demented Scottish friend Alwyn Cosgrove had taught me a while back. "DAMN!" I said to myself, "THIS is why I have always freaked out when people tell me that spiderman push-ups are easy!". For the record, AC's version KICKS ASS! :-)
Here's what most folks think a spiderman push-up looks like....Yawn.
Here's what the real deal looks like....GIDDY YUP and give it a go folks!

Kevin Larrabee's FITCAST
Hey folks, you've probably heard of the FITCAST online but you might not have seen what's going on over there these days. My friend Kevin Larrabee has got things really bumping on his fitness and nutrition podcast. He has great guests and topics and even has a new voicemail question feature! I've done a couple of FITCAST interviews and had a great time on Kevin's show. Be sure to check out the great new special offer going on over there ASAP!

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.
Our softball girls doing some rope pulling (on wet grass to boot!)
Bball players doing some lateral carioca dragging....
Good old fashioned sled pushing...
Some backward drags....

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!
