How An Often-Ignored Training Strategy Can Improve Your Fitness Results Overnight

The Often-Ignored “Killer App” Strategy That Every Great Fitness Coach Knows About (But The Gurus Hate And Fear) That Can Rapidly Improve Your Fitness Results Overnight Just By Making One Tiny Change To Your Exercise Program

I’m about to show you how to get extremely fit with a workout strategy the fitness gurus don’t want me to talk about. In fact, a lot of them fear what I’m about to share with you here. And the truth is that this is no secret, and every great fitness coach or strength and conditioning specialist knows exactly what I’m about to show you. But there are some out there in the fitness world – and many of the big Whigs – who don’t like when this little issue pops up and shows them to be the biased frauds that they really are (charming as they may be).

Regardless, I’ve found that from some of the cultural brainwashing that has taken place in the fitness industry, a lot of people just don’t know about or use this strategy. And it’s a real shame because it can literally skyrocket your results from making the most basic changes in your program. So, if you’re willing to make one tiny change to your exercise program, using ANY type of equipment, and you’re willing to research and apply the killer app strategy, then I can practically guarantee you’ll experience much better results in your training program immediately.

Get The Most Out Of Every Strength Training Repetition With These Simplified Tips About Repetition Speed

Much has been said about strength training when it comes to repetition speed and tempo considerations. There are a zillion and one different opinions out there and many different formulas to try, and I think most of them are pure garbage – not because they’re not effective, but because they aren’t personal (ie individualized to a specific athlete/trainee). In my opinion, they only add to the overly-complicated nature that strength training already suffers from. And the last thing people need is yet another variable to keep track of in their workout program.

So, in an effort to help you achieve your strength and fitness goals as quickly and healthfully as possible, I’m going to present to you a simplified explanation on the different repetition speeds and tempo considerations – free from any arbitrary standards to which you must conform yourself to – and suitable for practically anyone besides elite professional athletes and Navy SEALs.

This was all inspired by a question I received on my pushup technique video by Youtube user, Nico Enders. He said, “Great video, just one question. What should your rhythm be like? Slow or fast continuous motions, and does it make a difference? Cheers.” So, I filmed this video to answer his question and provide you with a simple blueprint to manage your repetition speed – and clear up any confusion about a subject that really shouldn’t be confusing, except to so-called fitness gurus.

Have at it!

Interview with Jason Fitzgerald about Strength Running

Get Stronger, Run and Race Faster, Prevent Injuries, And Feel Great While Running With These Expert Insights From Running Coach, Jason Fitzgerald

Jason Fitzgerald

Jason Fitzgerald – Founder of StrengthRunning.com

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of interviewing Jason Fitzgerald, who is a running coach and founder of the website Strength Running. I stumbled onto his site about a month ago, and given that both running and strength are mega-interests of mine, I started to pour through the archives. I quickly realized that not only is this guy knowledgeable about running, but he gets the “big picture” of health, fitness, strength, and athletics.

I signed up for his newsletter to get to know him and his work a little better, and am really glad I did. This guy really knows his stuff, and the more of his work that I’ve read, the more I liked him. So, it was only a matter of time before I asked the question, “may I interview you for my readers?” He accepted without hesitation and we picked a date. That date was yesterday, and man, we had an excellent discussion about all-things running and strength training.

Who Should Listen To This Interview

So, if you’re a runner, it’s a no-brainer that you’ll not only enjoy the interview, but you’ll get several actionable takeaways that you can use to help yourself become a better runner. Remember that word actionable. And if you’re a struggling runner, and I’ve been there, too, bub, then that is all the more reason why this interview is something you won’t want to miss. And finally, if you’ve been thinking about getting into running, and want to do it right (and not get injured like a staggering 50-90% of runners do, depending on which statistics you look at), then you’ll absolutely want to listen in.

We had originally planned on keeping this interview in the 30-45 minute range, but it was so good, we just kept going for over an hour. Admittedly, it was apparent from the outset that both Jason and I are hopeless training geeks. But hey, don’t hate now.
