The World” about the world-famous Westside Powerlifting Club/Team headed by super coach Louie Simmons. One of the things that caught my attention was the lifters’ relentless dedication to their lifting above all else and even to the DETRIMENT of all else. I could totally relate because - and I’m not proud of this - for the first 10 years or so of my marriage, my lifting took priority. To the point where my wife and I only ate dinner together on the weekends. Weekdays I ...

Grab your copy of Systematic Core Training For Kettlebells in the video description below. https://salutis.kartra.com/page/systematic-core-training Here’s a closer look at what FHP does to your upper body: Thoracic Spine: Increased Thoracic Kyphosis: FHP is strongly associated with increased thoracic kyphosis. (Excessive curvature / rounding of the upper back).   This leads to a “slouched” posture and thoracic dysfunction. (Singla & Veqar, 2017; Sepehri et al., 2024; Kang et al., 2021). Reduced Mobility and Breathing Ability: FHP restricts thoracic mobility, impairs ribcage movement, and decreases respiratory (breathing) efficiency.  This is due to altered muscle attachments and increased kyphosis (Triangto et al., 2020; Kang et al., 2021).  This means you can no longer extend your T-spine, so that you can put your arm overhead and lockout your Press.  As a result, you compensate for your lack of movement somewhere else – usually by arching your lower back...

Time-Tested “Burn Fat & Get Strong!” Single Kettlebell “Built For You” Program https://go.chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-burn/ Here’s HOW this actually works - What the research shows us so far. (Like all research, this may change in the coming years.) 1) Hard, fast efforts flip your fat-release switch. Short heavy / explosive sets spike catecholamines (adrenaline / noradrenaline – your “go” chemicals). Those hit receptors on fat cells and turn on hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL), which breaks stored fat into usable fuel. https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fphys.2020.575363/full 2) You keep burning after – but don’t overhype it. EPOC (the “afterburn”) scales with intensity: harder, high-quality sets → a bigger, longer post-workout energy cost. It’s real but part of the supporting cast, not the hero. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14599232/ 3) Muscle tells your body to use fat (IL-6 → AMPK). Hard contractions release IL-6 (a myokine – a messenger made by muscle). IL-6 helps...

Get Total Body Conditioning & Burn Off Body Fat With These Simple Swing Programs - https://salutis.kartra.com/page/SWING-HARD-2 Build Upper Body Muscle, Burn Fat Off Your Waist, & Get Stronger Arms, Shoulders, and a Lower Back That Won’t Quit With These Clean & Press Programs - https://salutis.kartra.com/page/oWP219 Many guys fall into this category: We “see” ourselves at the peak of our physical prowess - which for most of us is somewhere between 17 and 25. But then, “life” happens, and we are “magically” thrust 20 or 30 years (or more) ahead into time. And as a result, the man we “see” in ourselves as - remember ourselves as - is no longer recognizable in the mirror. Grayer… Wrinklier… Fatter… You get the picture. So, we remember what we used to do that got us to our peak - our prime - And we set out doing that again. Running… Push Ups and Calisthenics… Bench Presses and Squats… But our bodies aren’t 20-something anymore. They’re 40-something… 50-something… 60-something o...

“Rebuilt After 40” - Schedule B or C.  https://go.chasingstrength.com/rebuilt-after-40/ https:// salutis. kartra.com/page/M82491 My favorite way, and arguably the BEST way I’ve benefitted from bodyweight training over the years, is to use bodyweight exercises as what I call - Functional Antagonistic Balance Training. (Or FAB’s.) This was arguably one of the most amazing discoveries I stumbled upon. Yeah I know, sounds fancy and may even make me sound important. (Honestly, I don’t recall who I learned this from - it seems to me it was physical therapist Gary Gray or master performance coach Vern Gambetta, but I could be wrong. Strongman and Hand Strength expert, Jedd Johnson of the Diesel Crew actually refreshed my memory about 15 years ago in one of his grip training manuals about this concept.) It made my training fun again and because it had been years, if ever, since I included some of these exercises in my programming, I made very rapid gains. And as we know, gains (“GAINZ!”) a...

Level Up Your Kettlebell Game here: https://go.chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-burn/ I might have underestimated you. See, 6 years ago when I rebooted my newsletter and then started sporadically making these videos based upon conversations I was having, it appeared that most guys - maybe or even probably you - Only could “afford” 3x 20-30 minute workouts a week due to their demanding time schedules. But what I’ve noticed through probably thousands of customer emails and forum posts at this point 6 years later, is that is simply not true.  Or only partially true. There are plenty of guys who can do more… want to do more… and are craving more. I see it in all the time emails with questions like: “What else can I add to [PROGRAM NAME]?” “What can / should I do on my ‘off’ days?” “Can I still do [EXERCISE NAME]?” To name but 3 “archetype” emails. Not only that, even though I care about being strong and have stated that I’m tired of writing about “fat loss,” “losing fat”, and “weight los...
