Manmakers and a countdown from 30







This week has been a good week starting with some front squats and KTE's to manmakers and step ups today, we have been working hard this week and I have heard a lot of "Guy my legs are sore" or "my ass hurts". A sore ass means that you probably had good squatting form and were going down low enough. Remember a squat is Hips, Quads, hamstrings and core.

BB Complex and Runnin with the Pack

Looks like their posing
Prisoners, push ups, bench dips and step ups
Looks like the warrior females are all on break
This looks bad
Come on Rett push
Sumos and rows
KTE or hanging leg raise
Sumos
Afternoon class working it
Warriors had a good day with a BB Complex and then a bench routine. Boot campers got to put on a pack and do some prisoners and push ups. Throwing the ball and chasing it down the hill and up the hill - just too damn good.

Knowledge is Power - Or is it Confusing

Ian and Billy lookin good with the cross carry

Who is that warrior couple to the left

I have been in the fitness business for over 15 years and one of the things that amazes me is when someone reads a book, magazine, article, or something on the internet and then thinks that is how they should work out. A lot of times these articles are written by people like me (dumb asses who shouldn't write) or maybe an athlete or maybe the person that did this and it worked for them (do it cuz I did it) or maybe by someone who actually knows. Either way, most of these articles aren't the answer for everyones problems (weight loss, str gain, endudrance etc).

Please don't bring me in an article with the latest and greatest workout designed to make you look like Arnold or Bruce. Or maybe something GUARANTEED to make you strong or look your best in 4 weeks. Don't waste my time!! There are a lot of good things to read, but some are for beginners, some for experienced lifters, kids, athletes, seniors, beginning senior athletes (you get the picture). So when you read something, think about it before asking me if we can do it because it may not work for you. Knowledge really is power but the fitness and nutrition industry seems to work on confusion.
