I wanna show you 3 of my favorite go-to tips to help you hit a PR in SOMETHING today.

These are universally applicable (i.e. from upper body to lower body exercises and anything in between).

If your training has been consistent and you're not too worn down from work, kids, a nagging spouse, existential dread, or something similar, you may very well find that you'll be able to crank out an extra rep, put up some heavier weight, or lift your old PR with greater ease!

I'm joined on this fine episode by my friend and former Master kettlebell instructor in not one, but TWO organizations...David Whitley (aka 'The Iron Tamer')

On this episode, Dave and I take a slightly different, yet mighty important turn toward a topic that touches us all: casting off the shakles of the past to march boldly toward a future that is brighter not just for us, but more importantly for our children - and how to do that by UNlearning many of thing thoughts and habits we picked up as kids.

Be sure to check out Dave's fascinating workshop on the topic (totally free, btw) on January 24th, 2023: https://www.advancingmanproject.com/optin-551722801660616478080

Henry Rollins, the lead singer of Black Flag and The Rollins Band, once said that "the definition of definition is re-invention" as far as deciding who you are as a person.

Your job as an individual is to define yourself FOR yourself — not to rely on the ready-made identity your parents wanted for you (though you may certainly find inspiration in that, as I have).

On the strength front, this is more important now than ever (especially if you're a millenial). Listen, apply, and enjoy!

I'm joined on this riveting episode by Rob Pleban - a long-time Hammer Head (i.e. follower of Yours Jewly, the Hebrew Hammer) and even longer time enthusiast for kettlebells, calisthenics, and old-school training from near-forgotten eras (something I'm also very interested in).

Listen in as he walks us through his journey to greater strength, health, and physical vitality in his 70s than in his "spring chicken years"

Without question, learning how to avoid common mistakes in your training — mistakes that hold back your gains, frustrate your efforts, and do precious little more than kill your success and take you way off course while your friends surge boldly forward — is a must.

And if you're a busy professional with limited time to work out, you don't have a lot of time for trial and error — so there's no sense in taking a shot in the dark and hoping for the best.

With that said, one of the best and most frequently ignored methods of boosting your strength in just about anything is...exactly what I talk about in this podcast.

Tune in and check it out.

Ready thyself and steel thy nerves, dear reader, because in this short, no BS article I'm going to show you what is undoubtedly the WORST kettlebell combo EVER.

Not because it's ineffective (it's highly effective).

Not because it's dangerous (the opposite, in fact)

And not because you'll barely be able to move after (you'll likely move far better)

So why is it the worst?

On this fine episode I am joined by my partner in rhyme Pat Flynn, where we take a look at a video that YouTuber and would-be boxing contender KSI posted on Twitter showcasing some rather...how shall we say...amateurish front squat form. To see it yourself, be sure to check out the video on YouTube. Otherwise sit back, relax, and listen in as we discuss the importance of hiring a coach who not only has your best interests in mind, but can actually teach you properly.

Manifestos often get a bad rap. Serial killers have them. The Unibomber had one. Karl Marx had one.

But really, a manifesto is kind of like a mission statement, and if you've seen enough James Bond and Mission: Impossible movies, you know that missions are badass and totally cool.

So why the "anti-exercise" manifesto?

Because exercise — as necessary as it is for us nowadays — is to movement what vitamins and protein powder are to eating: a supplement.

Ideally you should be adding exercise and (maybe) nutritional supplements to your existing movement routine and diet.

What in the hell can I possibly mean by this? Listen in closely and find out.
