Great FGB on Monday night.  Fight Gone Bad is 3 X 1 min rounds of Wall Ball, Summo Dead Lift High Pull, Box Jumps, Push Press and Row for calories. Every rep counts as a point (calorie for row = 1 point).  Partners counted each other’s reps and provided the motivation! Travel for me is [...]

  • WORLD-CLASS FITNESS IN 100 WORDS:

    Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Dead lift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports.
