Random tidbits from my brain:

• Support your local farmers market. They can hook you up with killer produce. Here is today’s post workout sampler platter:




• Running a relay with 6 people on “The Prowler” is classic. If only I had a photo of the aftermath. It looked something like this:




• Why did I used to train body parts? That is so freaking idiotic. The body doesn’t move in parts. It moves as a whole. Train movements instead.


I Bet He Does Body Part Splits

• Want to look like an athlete? Stop training like a bodybuilder. Train for performance and aesthetics are sure to follow.



• Want to get bigger? How about you try getting stronger first. I don’t care how many quadruple drop set bench press tri-setted with cable crossovers and DB flys you do. You’ll never get any bigger without progressively lifting heavier weights overtime.

• On another note you don’t go from squating 95 pounds to 495 pounds in 3 months. It takes time. Make slow progressions, keep great form, and take time to recover. You can’t get stronger every single workout but you can make progress from week to week. Feeling run down? Take a week off or mix it up with bodyweight only workouts for a week.


Another guy trying to go from 95 to 495 way too fast.


• Get your ass outside. Its summertime. Bike, swim, hike, or run…I don’t care what you do. Just MOVE.


He definitely needs to get out more. A LOT MORE.

Hilarious post man. I see soo many kids at my gym doing body part splits and they come in looking exactly the same month after month. It's a sad sad thing.
