Isn’t it fantastic being in the Training Tribe? Yes! Absolutely. We’re continuing in this first of three months in the Strength and Hypertrophy Block. I’ve mentioned in some of our content how we’re working on being highly competent with the compound movements in this training split as well as making sure we are recovering adequately. Sleep and nutrition are the…
As opposed to commenting about the Bermuda Triangle or B-rated movies…this is a little op-ed piece I’ve been wanting to put together for quite some time. My version of the Devil’s Triangle involves over 4 decades of experience and observation in athletic and fitness training. It’s a story of temptation, seduction, success, and calamity. Actually that last statement sounds like…
How ya doin’? I hope the answer is great, fantastic, or sensational! I’ve been enjoying the opportunity to engage with so many of you in a variety of manners. In this post I want to pose a few questions and inquire how I can possibly inspire, educate, or entertain you in an ever-improving way. Because I value you as a…

Oh my, how the time flies! I’m utterly amazed that another month is here! It’s October! A time of pumpkins, hay mazes, and absolutely delightful workouts! The weather will be pleasant and it’s a perfect time to dive into more endurance-based training. It’s ancestrally consistent, as hunting, gathering, and migrating historically peaked during this month for us hominids over the…
I thought the title sounded interesting. Honestly, I’m not sure there is anything I’ve got to say about training that is actually revolutionary…but maybe. Today’s commentary is going to focus on the word evolution as it pertains to training. Evolution in the field of biomechanics. Evolution in my own thinking and programming.
