Way back in the years of 1995-1998, I was developing the foundation for the Newell Strength training principles.

As time has gone on, some of the stuff has become a little more popular with the masses, but much is still unique.

Some of the principles in today's episode include:

-Training at or near an anaerobic and anabolic threshold

-Movement first, then strength

-A game of angles

-The mind muscle connection

-Grip and mental toughness training

And more. Take a listen and share with a friend!

It was very fitting that I would be finishing up my 30-day squat challenge while in Italy.

And, it turned out that I actually finished on the night of my brother's wedding, on the dance floor, with about 5 other people joining in.

In the latest episode of Unlocking Your Inner Strength, I discuss the Italian's key to health, what I did for my own personal fitness while traveling abroad and the wild life that the 30-day squat challenge wound up taking on.

Your state of mind determines your reality.

Yet, most people get stuck in a bad state of mind.

It's almost as if they feel they have no control over their thoughts.

And if you have no control over your thoughts, you'll have no control over your feelings.

That's when life can become a very slippery slope.

In today's episode of Unlocking Your Inner Strength, I share with you 5 things you can do that can help you feel in control again and nearly always be the master of your mind.

Principles are few, methods are many. Here is my Mt. Rushmore of fitness principles that I feel are the most important to focus on to stay young, strong and powerful.

On May 20th, we had our 2 year anniversary of opening up successfully in the midst of Covid, against the Governor's wishes.

It came out better than anyone could have anticipated.

We lived by our principles and values in that moment and it paid off.

When you lead with the goodness of your heart, you can never go wrong.

Here is a recap of that story, two years later.

I went for a 2 mile run this weekend.

Last year, I dabbled a bit more with running and I am glad I did.

While I don't have any aspirations at this moment for doing any competitive running, my run this past weekend made me think about standards for training.

In today's episode, I cover things that I think you should be able to do and/or work towards when survival is the name of the game.

Using survival as a frame of reference puts fitness and strength into perspective.

Take a listen and enjoy!

It was and is my passion.

It is also my profession, that of being a Coach.

Heading into this year, I developed a strategy, along with Devon, to get it to where I know it can be.

I knew that ultimately, it all falls on me, I take responsibility and ownership.

In today's episode, I share with you why now, my role and what this means for Newell Strength.

When I first began training, way back in high school, I quickly realized that what I was doing in the gym and with my nutrition was much different than what the norm was.

Maybe it's because I was willing to do things outside the box, but I soon found out that I was on the correct path and using something I call 'reality math' has always allowed me to stay about 5 years ahead of the curve.

Sorry if that sounds braggadocious, but it's true.

In today's episode, I breakdown 6 myths that, once known, will probably save you a lot of time and frustration.

3 years ago, I dove into longer form fasting, after doing a 16-20 hour fast for the prior 5 years.

But just like 2019, I knew there was something more to be learned and explored, which is the feeling I've been hearing God whisper into my ear quite frequently.

That's part of the inspiration that some people have heard me talk about when I talk about developing Indigo Panda.

Anyhow, I am diving back into my 72's, which I still was doing every few months, some dry fasting, and some other fasting experiments I am kicking around right now.

For me, it's mainly a spiritual quest this time around.
