Are You As Strong As A 2nd Grader?

Friday, July 30th, 2010

Here is my son Gabriel.  He is 7 years old and tips the scale at a whopping 50 pounds.  Below is a photo I snapped of Gabe deadlifting 70 lbs.  That’s just shy of 1.5 x his bodyweight.

I know that you think that it is only due to him being gifted with superhuman strength due to his superior genetic line.   Yup, that’s it.

Saturday, November 1st, 2008

Sometimes, when I’m  just about spent after a workout I like to do what are called "finishers".  As they name implies, they finish you off. (not like that you perv)

Generally a "finishers" are a small sequence of moves that will take you from almost "Oh man I am wiped" to "I think I’m gonna hurl".

Oh yeah, my kinda fun.

Finishers are especially effective in fat loss programs as they add a serious metabolic boost to the workout the effects of which can last for up to 48 hours.
