Real Inspiration

There is no doubt that man is multidimensional.  We are made up of, and are in constant interaction with, many seen (skin, bone, hair, nails, flesh and teeth) and unseen parts (thoughts, spirit and breath).

I found this video online this morning and thought that you would really enjoy it.  The author of the video is a Christan pastor, so if you are offended by his language, references to the Bible or use of the word ‘God’… then I invite you to listen anyway, even if you have to ignore his spiritual references.

You need to see how he shows “the breath” or “inspiration” as more than a simple human function, but as a means for connecting with our inner essence, our creator and all that is calm and peaceful in nature. This places us in a very healthy and resourceful state of mind and physical health (remember what I taught you about Balancing The Autonomic Nervous System? — well, this is intrinsically linked to that ideal and conversations)

Watch and see how…

Does the perspective that author introduces provide you with a new idea about how vitally important our breath is to our physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health?

How do you exercise and honor the “unseen” part of your reality?  or How do you honor “The Breath” via physical exercise, meditation, prayer, Yoga, Chi Gung, etc?

If this is a new concept to you… what are your thoughts?

**ALSO, I am thinking about sharing a method of Anabolic Energizing (breathing) exercises that I learned several years ago that I have begun to use again recently, with you.

It may be some videos or a live webinar… if this sounds like something that you may be interested in, please let me know in the comments section below (just say that it sounds like a cool idea… or not)

I’m very interested in your comments :)

Bull Strength Conditioning Interview With Joe Hashey

The True Stories Behind “Brutal Bull Workouts” With Joe Hashey

http://www.BrutalBullWorkouts.com

Last night I recorded a casual conversation with Joe Hashey, the psychotic author of The Bull Conditioning workout manual.  Instead of all the typical “brilliant trainer” rhetoric that pollutes most expert interviews, Joe and I just “shot the breeze”.  He revealed several weird and interesting stories about how some of these brutal conditioning workouts came into existence (one story was a about a client who got kicked out of a gym for…. well, I won’t spoil the joke!).

Also, since I tend to value character over technical BS… I got Joe to talk about his family life and new business, an incredible warehouse gym in NY where he literally transforms boys to men!

I think you’ll really enjoy this interview.

Last week I attended the Strongman Show of Champions in Orlando… the same show that I won my Pro Card at last year.  Well, this year Andy Deck was the man who made the ascent from amateur to pro on this day!  Andy is lean, strong and SUPER explosive!  I was able to corner him last week for a short phone interview about his background and unique training style.  He uses a ton of exercises and methods that I’ve never experimented with… but will be now!  Enjoy!

Here is what you will learn from this 45 minute interrogation:

* The elite “Eastern Block” secret developed to create eye-popping separation in the inner pectoral muscles to give you that “mini-Grand Canyon” look that’s so hard to achieve!

* The “sweet spot” of your rep range that triggers massive growth in even the most stubborn biceps …and how something as simple as your hand position can be the difference in results like a champ…or a chump!

* How a simple adjustment to how FAST you move the weights can help you dig deep, deep, deep into an area of your muscles you never even knew existed!

* How to zero in on those hard to hit “lower abs”…and “Experts” don’t like to talk about this topic…but it’s time someone did! And that someone is ME!

* How to achieve amazingly WIDE shoulders. that make you “look” a hell of a lot bigger…and make your WAIST look a hell of a lot SMALLER!
