Video: Band Resisted Anti-Rotation Press
Core stability should be one of the main focuses of everyone’s programs. You have most likely already seen Palloff presses, rollouts, landmines, ect. But what if you don’t have a cable station or just want something a bit more challenging? Here is something I partly stole from Mike Boyle when he was talking on the Strength Coach Podcast. All you need is a band and a sturdy pole. swfobject.embedSWF("http://www.youtube.com/v/e0Uzi5OwQfU&rel=0&fs=1&showsearch=0&showinfo=0",... Read More

Destination Abs Redux: Day 59
Are we back? Yes, we’re back. It has been a long time since I have done a Destination Abs update. Too long. Some have even e-mailed me to ask me what the hell was going on with this project Leigh and I set out on 9 or so months ago. Well, I took some time off from counting calories and worrying about every single calorie I consumed. It seemed like it was much needed, but after regressing a bit, and putting on some more muscle, Leigh and I think it is time to rev up... Read More

9 Things I Learned in 2009: Part 1
Yep, it is another one of those, “things I learned last year” posts. Hopefully I have some things that aren’t on those other lists, and at least you get to see a dude with abs on his back (so I guess Lumbar extension is OK!).
