Dynamis

Dynamis is a Greek word that is usually translated as the will to win.  And as a PED, it is without equal.  Dynamis is why some athletes always perform better in a competitive situation.  Getting 2 or 3 lifters together who are lifting similar numbers in the same weight class always leads to improved results.  If you are an 85kg lifter totaling 300kg, there is nothing quite so effective in…

Goals

  Setting goals is one of the most important skills you can have as an athlete. But setting goals is sometimes harder than it sounds.  If the goals are too easily reached, they can actually hold you back instead of motivating you to move forward.  If the goals you set are too difficult they can seem unreachable and discourage you.  Many people recommend setting a big, very difficult to attain…

Exercising verses Training

I recently got to know a woman who is very much like me in many ways.  She is goal oriented and driven in most aspects of life.  But she is clueless when it comes to eating and exercise.  She goes to the gym and puts in the time but does not see the results. She exercises, rather than trains.  And there is a huge difference between the two.

Folks who exerciseoften do not get results because even…

THE MOST DANGEROUS THING IN LIFE IS TO PLAY IT SAFE.....DON’T BE AFRAID TO FAIL AND TAKE CALCULATED RISK 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼. #Repost @glenn_pendlay with @get_repost ・・・ Whenever I have gone to @westsidebarbellofficial. Louie always had something clever to say. We disagree on a few issues l, but this is one that we agree on. You can’t get much stronger doing squats in the Smith Machine or the leg adductor machine. Use free weights, do the snatch and clean&jerk, and you’ll have no choice but to be stronger. #PendlayWOD #PendlayCamp #WestsideBarbell @weightlifting_house (at WESTSIDE BARBELL The Official Fan Page)

Weightlifting Diet addendum III

My last blog on the weightlifting diet focused on eating the right carbs.  In a nutshell, ditch the bread, pasta, rice, and white potatoes in favor of more nutrient dense and high fiber foods.  Sweet potatoes, squash, zucchinis, carrots and other vegetables like these are much healthier because they contain way more nutrients, are more filling because they contain more fiber.  They also don’t…

Weightlifting Diet

There is no doubt that the diet of an average American stinks.  But as a weightlifter, you shouldn’t be eating like the average American.  How should you eat?  Well, many books have been written about that, but I think I can boil it down to a couple of key rules. Rule 1:  Do not eat candy or sweets.  This takes zero smarts to figure out.  This includes candy bars, Pop tarts, most breakfast…
