Do Your Workouts Augment Your Life? (NSFW)
This guy just fucking GETS IT. I’ve been trading a number of emails with my good friend James as of late. James and I met when I was a teenager back in a high school weight training class. James was a couple years older than me, as well as...

Throwing the Baby Out With the Bath Water?
You know, I’m seeing sort of a weird trend in the land of intrawebz fitness gurus. Or at least some of the up-and-coming, kinda sorta self-proclaimed ‘gurus’. Or whatever they call themselves. And that trend is to throw the baby...

Simple Things For Simple People
LOL – poor Andy. On Tuesday, I went up to Thomasville, NC to visit my buddy Andy Hepler of Hepler Strength & Conditioning (http://www.heplerstrength.com, http://davidsoncountypersonaltrainer.com). We hung out for the day talking training,...

WTF Catharsis
Have you ever heard that old saying about not being able to see the forest for the trees? (Or is it the trees for the forest? Either way…) Sure you have. We all have. But have you actually experienced it? I have. And when you do…if...

You Can Find A Way To Win
Ok, so it’s been a little while since I’ve done a blog post…actually just came back from a kickass week-long family vacation to the beach at the Outer Banks. We didn’t do much – just kinda hung around and unwound. The...

Vince Gironda’s 8×8 Routine
I’ve been asked a time or two where I got the inspiration to create Working Class Cardio. And believe it or not, the answer might surprise you. Like many other career meatheads, while I’m interested mainly in developing programs that...

Poor Guys Run 2.0 – *THAT* Is Why I Run
It may sound cliche, but it’s amazing what you hear when you stop to listen. Let me explain. A few weeks ago, after an entirely too long hiatus, I re-introduced night runs back into my workouts. I’ve always loved night runs – be it...

Are You Really Up For This?
If you read my last rant on the Tabata protocol, you’ll know one of the reasons that I’m not a fan of it is that I think most people aren’t in good enough shape in order to actually do it correctly. (If you missed the rant, you can...

Tabata – A Rant (NSFW)
Ok gang – I haven’t ranted in quite a while. Guess it’s time I fixed that. This one is gonna be ugly, because I’m seeing this more and more. And the more and more I see it, the more and more it pisses me the hell off. So...

“Jack of All Trades, Master of None”
Remember that old saying – ‘jack of all trades, master of none’? It basically means that you’re pretty good (or pretty damn good, even) at a whole lot of different things. But, because you’ve spent a bunch of time working...

I Still Feel Great, Look Great, and Love Life.
Gotta share this testimonial. I’ve told y’all about the Bonafede brothers more than once – they shouldn’t even need an introduction anymore. Basically, they’re perfect examples of what happens when you take hardcore,...

What Can You Do at Home?
Got a pretty interesting email the other day. This guy had seen that my new “Body Armor – The 2nd Chapter” had finally been released (and is flying off the virtual shelves, I might add), and noted that if you grab the...

If You Say This, You’re a LIAR
I’ve talked about this kinda thing before, but it floors me how much certain circles in the fitness industry like to separate themselves from each other. You know – powerlifters don’t like olympic lifters, and they don’t like...

So My Son’s Buddy Comes Over…
So yesterday, my son’s friend (my boy is 16, his friend is 18) comes over after school yesterday. His buddy is skinny as a rail…I mean, I think I was born bigger than this poor kid…and is looking for advice on how to pack on some muscle.

Just Like Being Superman
In yesterday’s blog post, I talked about summer coming, and how that meant beaches, swimsuits, going shirtless, and why building that “v-taper” was such a big deal…and then gave you an easy way how to do it. Let’s keep...

Bigger or Smaller?
Well, it’s the middle of May…already! Hard to believe, huh? Before long, school will be ending, summer will be in full effect, and the weather will be warm (if it’s not where you are already). With summer and warm weather means wearing...

Best of All Worlds…
Just recently, I’ve told you about my two favorite nutrition plans – carb cycling and intermittent fasting. But, as both are pretty different, that’s prompted a few of y’all to email me and ask me which one I do. Or more...
