I highly recommend this book
This book is helping me to teach Olympic Weightlifting in a simpler way. It is very clear and doesn’t waste time or words on useless junk!
What our testing is showing us so far
We are just over 1/2 way through our quarterly strength/work capacity tests, and overall everyone is doing quite well. Both strength and work capacity have improved as our training records have proven. There are still some technique issues to correct, but that is not the biggest issue I am seeing (though it is vitally important). The biggestContinue reading “What our testing is showing us so far”
I thank the teacher who gave me an “F” in high school (it’s what I deserved)
There was a time when teachers weren’t afraid to fail someone in their class. I know, I was that guy. The teacher knew her subject well but I just couldn’t see any relevance of it to my life and didn’t care to learn it.

As with most things pertaining to improving the health of men, many guys will ignore it, unless it pertains to getting 6-pack abs without doing any hard work or dating a woman 1/2 their age. That is to their own detriment, which they will probably regret laterContinue reading “Closing thoughts on men’s health awareness month (Movember)”
If you are overweight, don’t start off by running to lose weight
As we wrap up Movember (men’s health awareness month) I wanted to caution guys who are overweight not to begin their weight loss program with running. I am not saying they should never run, just get your body more prepared for it by cleaning up your nutrition and doing other types of exercise first. JointContinue reading “If you are overweight, don’t start off by running to lose weight”
