Lifting Heavy - All the Important Details

I've been releasing a series of episodes regarding heavy-weight training, and I want to finish it with this episode that covers relevant details. Today I focus on alternative forms of progression that live outside the amount of weight and the number of repetitions. Weight and reps are the primary forms of progression, and today we discuss pauses, exaggerated range of motion, and prolonged negatives. These tactics can help you continue getting stronger without adding weight to the bar, but make no mistake; subsequently, they will help with that primary progression of overall weight lifted. Let's get some!!! Do me a favor and like/subscribe so I can be happy.

The embarrassing episode part 2 and the reLENTless Challenge

I don't technically celebrate Lent anymore, but I was raised Catholic, which is part of my identity. I coincidentally arrived at a very confusing and painful point in my life, and I am using these 40 days and 40 nights to lock things down. I want, dare I say need, you to accompany me. I am a bit embarrassed by this episode, as I break down and cry, and it's not subtle. I start talking about something that I haven't talked about at all, even in my private life, and that is the death of my friend Orlando Sanchez. He was famous and well-respected in Grappling, but he had been my friend before he ever tied his belt. I also have been having some aggressive depression and anxiety; frankly, I lost it a little.

New Year Same You - Let Me Explain

I'm sure many of you are making New Year's resolutions, and a good percentage of those resolutions are based on your physique. There's nothing inherently wrong with this practice, but I do think it's shortsighted. The idealized view of yourself already exists and instead of looking for new ways to change yourself, look to find that enhanced person you're hiding inside of you.

Mikey Likes You - Top 5 Holiday Survival Tips

Watching what you eat seems to become exponentially harder once Halloween hits, and that added pressure doesn't subside until the New Year. The holidays are festive. There will be more social gatherings, communal fun, and with it, reasons to stuff that face.

If you’ve spent nine months monitoring what you’re eating and training with intent, the holiday struggles can be devastatingly painful. Here I will provide you with my five biggest tips to help you positively get through the holidays. Here is to a New Year without regrets of overindulgence or lack of visceral fun.
