Bodyweight Training – Are you being suckered?

I can’t handle this anymore. Most of these bodyweight gurus
are f***’n frauds and I can care less if you don’t like it or not.

Most of the programs out there are for the weak man. Men that
think that strength is physical fitness.

I probably have a bigger library of training books then most library’s
and there is only one or two that actually are worth anything.
Don’t get me wrong you can learn a lot from anyone, but it’s the
people that think these pretty packaged programs and books are
going to get them in to some kind of super human shape.

Most of the books have hardly any workouts and the ones they do
put in there, very few will do them, they just like to put the book on their
desk, get on the internet and tell everyone how this is the greatest book.

Yeah,I sell training manuals and can care less if anyone buys them, because
they’re for a different breed of person. A person that can and will push
themselves harder and farther then the last time, the one that will sweat
and then sweat some more, the one that will push when his body tells
him to stop.

I have a few books that have the word ” conditioning” in the title but
there are very few conditioning workouts. The books should change
the word “conditioning” to exercise.

A while back a read a blog that said with the name ” Wildman” I would be
lifting rocks, logs, fighting bears. Well if these so called men seen any
of my videos they would know I could lift rocks, logs I never fought
a bear, but I did bite a dog!

Most of you are getting scammed from men that don’t really do
bodyweight training. Most of them lift weights.

They use the bodyweight training as a way to suck you in.

There are even books out there about about how the convicts train,
I’m not saying that I was in prison but know enough about the prison
system either through people that work there or from the people
that did time and what I have read in these books is bull.

There are men in jail that train and they are strong and fit
and it’s because they have a life time to train and recover
but I have never heard of or seen  these prisoners doing pistols
using kettles or some of the other things I have read in these
books.

My next point, ” The strong survive” In prison do you think
that to survive you need strength or you need to have
a high level of conditioning?

I have said it before, you can have all the fancy equipment,
best training advice all the best supplements and walk around
all jacked up and all tattooed up and you still won’t survive
without being conditioned.

I only listen to the really conditioned and strong, the
men do it everyday not the ones that just write books
because it’s the new fad.

So keep doing all the pistols and handstand pushups
and think you are getting into great shape and neglect
your conditioning and I hope that you can last more
then 2 minutes when the time comes.

Because I have never seen the bigger stronger guy
get his ass kicked because he ran out of gas, Yeah
right!

Remember, You can get strong and not be conditioned,
but it’s hard to get conditioned and not get strong.

You want to try this conditioning workout? All you
need is a deck of Pinochle cards.

Simple, Black card – Burpee.
Red card – Pushups and Squat thrusts.

Usually you do one exercise per color but on the
red card you will two exercise’s.

Do whatever number comes up. If a 10 comes
up do 10 Squat thrusts then start doing 10 pushups
continue through the deck.

All face cards are 10 everything else is face value.

Try getting through this in 20 minutes or less.

Former Royal Marine is bodyweight training machine and gets the best of me.

A while ago I posted a workout I tried called ” The Brutal Wildman Training 2,500 workout which consists of
6 different bodyweight exercise’s done in a circuit as fast as possible. 250 burpees, 1,000 jumping jacks,
250 crunches 250 squat thrusts, 500 bodyweight squats, 250 pushups. I posted a time of 49:36 and I
thought that was tough, then walks in this former Royal Marine.

He emails me and tells me that he and some buddies did the workout, and his time 45:06.
Not many people will ever give me a time let alone try these physically and mentally
demanding workouts. So when a former Royal marine from the U.K. does it and post a
time like this it gets me motivated.

Has anyone ever checked out the training the Royal Marines go through? Well when you get
a chance check it out. These guys are machines. They train using bodyweight training circuits
and are in superb condition. So seeing his time got me a little nuts. I was ready to sit down for
dinner and decided that I needed to try and get a better time then Max.

I actually gave up eating for competition. I knew it would be tough. To get a better time there would be
very little time for water and a quick wipe down. The sweat poured off. But in 41:58 done. Finished.
A brutal workout non stop any rest would cost me. But if I quit I would have failed and I would have
a problem with that, it would bother me until I got a better time.

If I didn’t get a better time I would have been pissed. But I needed to do at least better then my
original time. Which I smoked. I hope he doesn’t beat it because I was spent. I had a little left,
but not much. It’s nice to be able measure yourself and to continue  to push forward, because
if we aren’t trying to push harder and farther whats the use. We need to always be pushing harder
and farther then before, if you don’t you won’t grow. Besides ” I’d rather die then give up”.

Pure Grit – Paddy Doyle

That’s the name of Paddy Doyles new book. He talks about his world records
his mind set. I have all his books and videos. If you haven’t been listen the
last couple years, I’m a big fan.

He has a circuit in the book that he uses when he trains for certain world records.

Here is what he does.

40 pressups.
100 situps.
100 bodyweight squats.
100 U.K. squat thrusts.
100 burpees.
15 minute static wall sit.
shuttle sprints 30 feet carrying 40lb dumbbells 20 times.
( up and back is 1 time)
Each exercise is to be done non-stop with a 15 second rest in between
each exercise.
Then he will repeat.

I did all the above except I struggled with the static wall sit
did a pathetic 5 minutes. But used a 100 lb heavy bag for the
30′ shuttle run.

Time 19:41 seconds. Not bad for first try.

If you want to copy someone why not try to chase a guy that has over
130 world and European records.

Would love to here your comments

How 3 minutes of Bodyweight Training will give you guaranteed results.

The word discipline has become a foreign word. The number one thing slipping in our
lives is our health and fitness. We are more sick and fatter then ever before, and the only
one we can blame is ourselves.

We need to take back our lives and get back on track. We need to sit back for a moment
and really find out what needs to be done to get us going  in the right direction.

We have become a weak country both physically and mentally. We won’t push any farther
then we need to. We only do the bare minimum. We won’t step outside our comfort zone.

If you really think about it. What really does come easy without hard work ?

One thing that can get us to feel better is exercise and eating healthier. An exercise program
will work wonders if you stick with it. So how do you stick with it ? You do a little everyday
to build up momentum. ” That’s right exercise a little everyday”.

Before you make any excuse about having time to devote to exercise, let me stop you there.
I’m not talking about going to the gym. I’m not talking about buying any equipment. What
you need you already own.

Introducing the 640 extreme muscle machine. And it’s all you will ever need. It’s your body.
And 640 I’m referring to the amount of muscles in your body.

Using your own bodyweight will give you the greatest results in the quickest possible time. But just
like anything else the more you put into it the more you will get out of it.

The great thing about using your own bodyweight is that it only takes minutes a day. All it takes is a
simple concept and hard work for guaranteed results. You have 1 to 15 minutes a day, right?

This will work for just about everyone. Pick an exercise, pushups, crunches, stepups, squats etc.
Figure out how much time you can devote to exercise daily. Some days you might have 5 minutes
maybe 15 minutes or some days you may have only 1 minute at a time. If you do have only one
minute use it and exercise.

How can 1 minute of exercise do anything ? First of all have you ever tried do 1 minute of pushups ?
How about Bodyweight squats ? Whens the last time you did a sprint for 1 minute? Now that one minute
doesn’t sound so simple does it ?

So what if you did a minute of exercise three different times a day. One time in the morning, another at
lunch and one more minute before dinner. Is that possible ? YES ! Could you do 3 minutes tomorrow ?
and the next day? On the weekend, could you squeeze in maybe 5 minutes on Saturday and Sunday?

So if you did a little as exercise for one minute 3 times a day and 10 minutes on the weekend, that’s
25 minutes a week. Can you handle that? If you just pushups 3 times a day at 25 that’s 75 times that
into 7 days that’s 525 pushups a week and 27,375 pushups a year!! Only exercising 3 minutes a day.

Pretty amazing. Now don’t you think as you exercise for 3 minutes these pushups will get easier? You
know they will. Just a little everyday will continue to build on it’s self. You will become more fit you
will want to eat better you will want to go longer when you can.

Give yourself 3 minutes a day and see how you progress. After one week you will be able to do 30 and so
on. Simple, yet effective.

Bodyweight training- Fit to fight

Bodyweight training- Fit to fight

 I love this saying- Fit to fight. I heard this from the #1 man of bodyweight training world records Paddy Doyle. And he has it right, you need to be fit to fight.

 More and more men and women are taking to bodyweight training as the way to optimal fitness in record time.

 MMA fighters and athletes all over the world are starting to take notice of the benefits of bodyweight training and getting results that push them to the next level.

 Using your own bodyweight as resistance is not just a few pushups and sit ups it’s so much more. Bodyweight training is so versatile that you never have to do the same workout again.

 A man that has well over 100 bodyweight and martial arts world records is a man I want to learn from.

 Using your own bodyweight will make you a better athlete or will burn the fat from your waste line like a spreading wild fire.

 The physical fitness aspect of bodyweight training will not only work in the ring or to make you physically fit, it will make you mentally fit that will carry you in life.

 The more you improve using your bodyweight as resistance the more you will push yourself. You will start to push yourself farther and harder, you will start to feel as if you  are unstoppable.

 Martial artists and other athlete’s will become faster, stronger, more explosive with a ” I’d rather die then give up” attitude.

Bodyweight training will get you fit to fight either in the ring or out.

 Bodyweight training will build a physical and mental toughness that you will be proud of. So become fit to fight.

 A short workout you can try will only take a few minutes so no excuses on time.

 Pick 4 bodyweight exercises.

 For example:

Burpees, Pushups, Jumping Jacks, Bodyweight squats.

 Each exercise is to be done for 1 minute with a 1 minute rest in between each exercise. After you go through this 1 time rest for 2 minutes and repeat one more time.

 Don’t be fooled by the simplicity you’ll be calling for oxygen soon enough.

 

 

 

 

 

Bodyweight training for exposive power

Bodyweight Training for extreme explosive power.

 Bodyweight training has been on the rise as of late and the reason
is it works. It has always worked, it has worked for millions of years.

 You will benefit from the many years of research that bodyweight
training is and always will be the way for the fastest, greatest and
natural results ever.

 Our bodies are made to be explosive, our bodies are made to work.
There was a time when survival was the key. Survival meaning
you had to hunt for food. You had to have extreme endurance.
you had to be able to sprint, climb, jump do whatever to stay
alive, and if you were slow you didn’t eat or may die.

 As a matter of fact in this hard–core world you better be strong,
fast and explosive because you never know when your life or
a loved ones life will be on the line.

 Using bodyweight training as a way to total fitness is a great way
to tap in to the natural element of your body.

 There are a ton of exercise programs out there, some good some
bad. You don’t need any other piece of equipment to build a strong
lean, athletic body then what you already have.

 Bodyweight training is very effective for all your fitness objectives.
I personally don’t want to spend 2 hours a day in the gym. So
that’s why I love bodyweight training it’s quick and gets the job done
fast.

Years ago I could lift a lot of weight and I thought I was fit. I found
I was strong but not conditioned. And I was not explosive. I was
big, strong and slow and that was fine as long as I was just going
to the gym.

But here I am 15 years later 85lbs lighter, quicker, explosive and
have more overall body strength then I did squatting 600lbs or
bench pressing 350lbs.

Training explosive and fast will get you explosive and fast. I don’t
recommend you train explosive everyday but I would spend time
training fast and explosive for a more conditioned body.

 I do use some slow training like isometrics, dynamic resistance
which will build a lot of strength but I still rather train for explosive
strength then to have slow type strength.

 Here’s a pushup exercise you can try for explosive strength.

 You will need a small step about 12” tall or something study.

 Make sure when you do these your face won’t hit the object.

 In a standing position- drop down into a wide pushup position
from there you will explode up bringing your hands closer
together doing another pushup, explode up and this time bringing
your hands together almost touching then you will do another pushup
and this time explode up and forward landing on the step. You can
repeat this a few times.

 Or you can do the same just start in the pushup position and do the
4 pushups start wide, regular, close, explode up and out but this time
push back off the step close, regular, wide.

 Let me know how this works.

 By the way I’m now on twitter and you could see what I’m doing.
