  • I'm joined on this episode by my friend and founder of Original Strength, Tim Anderson.

    In this fascinating episode Tim reveals some epic details on his spectacular new book, "A Simple Book of Strength," why it's his FAVORITE of the 10 books he's written so far, and how it can help YOU to change your life.

    Wanna crush weakness and forge all-day strength, stamina, and resilience WITHOUT any complicated exercises or confusing programs?

    My world-famous 9-𝑀𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑡𝑒 𝐾𝑒𝑡𝑡𝑙𝑒𝑏𝑒𝑙𝑙 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐵𝑜𝑑𝑦𝑤𝑒𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡 𝐶ℎ𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑒𝑛𝑔𝑒 might be just what the proverbial doctor ordered.

    The moves are so simple and intuitive that you can learn them in 30 seconds or less (so you'll be off to the races in less time than it took you to read this post), AND it's designed to be done in conjunction with your regular training - so no need to take a detour; instead, you get to step on the gas toward your goals.

  • I had the pleasure of once again chatting with the great retired Master SFG Instructor Geoff Neupert - author of "Kettlebell Muscle" as well as a litany of other excellent books.

    In this jam-packed episode we go head-to-head on the topic of various muscle, metabolism, and fat loss myths and facts, and how they impact the very real troubles many Americans now face: obesity.

    In this episode we talk about his humble origins, how he went from being a successful karate school owner, yet sought something more, which led to him closing his schools and striking out (quite literally) into the Nevada desert to prove his mettle in one of the most fearsome sports of all: mixed martial arts.

    He was recently called up for reserve duty to fight against the terrorist organization Hamas in Gaza, and because both traditional news and the emerging alternative news sources have published a great many wildly conflicting (often completely unfactual) reports on the goings-on in the Strip, I wanted to have him on the show to talk about both his first-hand experience and his in-depth knowledge of the history of the region.
