Latest vid from Panama: Leg day with Fitness Model Ariadna González Fontelio!
What is “Bro-Science”? What’s wrong with it? How does it cost you money? Why is it bad for the industry? I cover that and more in this vid!
Saying “NO” to Bro-Science saves you money and wasted time in the long run, and forces supplement companies (as well as companies making other scam BS junk connected to the fitness/health/BBing industry) to stop with the hype marketing based on Bro-Science and forces them to actually spend money on research.
The Bro-Science stops with YOU! 
I use the Prowler with tac teams I have worked with on their performance/fitness, myself, and various athletes from all walks, and nothing comes close as both a conditioning tool and a whole body strength tool.
It is without equal as a single piece of equipment one can own that covers the full spectrum of fitness. Vast majority use it as a GPP/conditioning tool, and it’s great for that. Very few use it as a true strength/power builder, and that’s a mistake. Pile some serious weight on it, and it’s killer for strength/power developer. I have posted many Prowler related vids here in the past. Just came back from the gym where I did an all Prowler leg workout with my buddy Big Lee Rosenberg. Death by Prowler!
Training after 40 and beyond! I get asked all the time about training after 40; asked if I would do a vid or write an article on what, if any, differences people over 40 years old should focus on regarding their training. I cover the topic below in this latest vid.
Just did this workout With Kelly Anne DeCollibus. It was a fun workout (not for her!) and she looks great doing it. She’s a real trooper in the gym and has the ‘never say die’ attitude, and I know some guys who would not survive this workout at the pace and loads used. This workout was clearly in the “no pink dumbbells zone” and women should pay close attention there. Put down the tiny dumbells, get away from the endless low intensity aerobics, and you’ll see big improvements in your body and spend less time in the gym.
I do this exact program when the mood hits, and yes, use higher loads, but it floors me every time. This gal never fails to impress me with her strength and willingness to give it her all what ever gets thrown at her, which is a quality I demand of people when I work with them.
Vibration Training has potential uses to athletes, but won’t be replacing hard work in the gym any time soon. May have real value to some populations and as a rehab tool. I cover Vibration Training while stopping by Northeastern Chiropractic.
Just did a killer leg workout with Fitness Competitor Leah Gifford. This is was hard functional training looks like! The “no pink dumbbell zone” rules were in effect!!!!!
Ever wonder about those ‘before and after pics’ you see in the magazines or web sites? I expose this common INDUSTRY SCAM!!!!!!
My buddy Jim V and I – who is a Sgt on a regional SWAT team in my area, and was on the ABC show Expedition Impossible – did what I refer to as a “functional range day” where I combine functional exercises with some basic range work. It’s similar to my P.A.S.T Program conceptually.
You can slowly ramp up the difficulty by increasing the physical difficulty, and or increasing the shooting difficulty, or both.
Might start with 10 push ups, five tire flips, engage target at 7 yards.
Progressions might be 1 min of pushups, 10 tire flips, 10 rear sled drags, and add stress/difficulty to the shooting; on the move, from cover, or other.
My focus is on the exercise component and don’t make claims to being a BTDT firearms instructor, but a performance trainer who works with tac LE on ways of improving stress training and I enjoy ad hoc “functional” style range days such as found in this vid.
Programming should still attempt to balance volume of antagonist muscles , such as pushups followed by sled rows, etc. which can reduce potential for injuries and improve training effects long term.
However, you have to work with what you have, which in this case was a truck tire, length of phone pole, sled, and a few 25lb plates.
Yes, a pumpkin was injured during the filming of this vid. My apologies in advance to all pumpkin lovers out there 
And what is this Fein stuff mentioned in the vid? I cover that in my article “What You Need To Know About Caffeine!” if interested.
As a rule, I prefer to train antagonist muscle groups together (chest/back, etc) but Pam wanted to do Chest/Shoulders…
On looking at the vid, she’s doing more or a KB high pull (which is what I wanted) vs a KB swing, and I should have written it as such in the vid workout write up. Oh well….
