A few weeks ago I saw the all time greatest rap group and one of the best and most influential bands of any genre, ever; Public Enemy. It’s quite possible that I have seen more concerts than anyone on the planet but that was by far and away the best. If you don’t have any PE on your training mixes you are seriously missing out. Some must have, immediate downloads are:
-Lost at Birth
-You’re Gonna Get Yours
-Bring The Noise
-Night of the Living Baseheads
-Rebel Without a Pause
-Terminator X to the Edge of [...]

“Once Again, Back Is The Incredible!”
Difference Makers
Originally written in 2005 for EliteFTS
Despite the busiest summer I ever had both professionally and socially, my training has been better than ever lately. I’m hitting PR’s on everything and the weights on all of my assistance exercises are flying up. For the past several years not much has changed about the way I train, nothing drastic at least. This summer, however, I made several major changes which I believe all played a large part in helping attain the outstanding results I have been getting recently. Following is a list [...]
"Can’t Truss It"
So I ran out of protein powder about two weeks ago and decided to take a quick ride to the supplement store to grab a new bottle. The choices were limited and I was in the mood for something different. In a lapse of judgement I bought a bottle from a company that I shouldn’t have. It’s not the most reputable company and the owner has a history of dabbling in illegal activities. So it’s really my own damn fault.
For the next five nights I hardly slept a wink. I [...]
The Business
Originally written in 2006 by Alwyn Cosgrove & Jason Ferruggia for EliteFTS
Over the past year, we have both received tons of emails and phone calls that go something like this: “I have listened to you for a while now and have purchased several products from you. I’ve watched you and your reputation grow.”
Or like this: “What was the one thing you did or the one step you made that took you from being a ‘personal trainer’ to a more accomplished fitness expert? Basically, what got the [...]
Age is No Excuse
I would like to start by thanking everyone for all the positive responses to the last post on using age as an excuse.
Here is just a small sample of what you guys had to say…
“Good rant; problem many have is that the medical /allied health community sets the bar way too low. Unless there are serious orthopedic issues or other serious medical issues then most people underestimate their physical capabilities. Our job is to enlighten them and show them the way. Many of those medical conditions are diseases of misuse/ [...]
"Not Bad For An Old Man"
Last night, UFC legend Randy Couture came out of retirement and won the world heavyweight title at 43 years old.
And your excuse for why you are not stronger or biggeer or leaner or a better athlete is because you are… too old? How sad and pathetic you must be.
Last night was like watching a real life version of Rocky Balboa and the only way not to be motivated by it was if you slept through the fight.
Sylvia was the odds on favorite against the older Couture yet he was completely [...]
