The DopamineO Band Broadway Workout

 No this isn't a musical of songs and dances. There is a stage though, it's called the gym or wherever you can hook up the Dopa Band to. This is an inspiration from pro wrestling of a long and forgotten tradition. The Broadway, where a champion was in the main event and matches lasted as long as 60-90 minutes to a draw. These matches go as far back as the 40's up until the early 2000's that evolved into the Ironman Match where a competitor had to get as many "points" as possible within the time limit. Before the days of television when real matches were more common, matches at times lasted for hours. One of the most famous is Ed Lewis & Joe Stecher who went at each other for more than 5 hours. 

 Unlike a match, this was a workout that consisted of a circuit of 5 exercises for 10 reps each (my kind of circuit) and I would do as many rounds as possible within an hour. Here are the exercises:

10 Chest Flys

10 Wave Pulls

10 Uppercut To Squats

10 Alternating Skis

10 Propellers

The first few rounds weren't too difficult but once I started reaching 12-15, things got interesting. I may have gone one round where I did more than 10 reps of the propeller exercise but I kept on going. It got to a point where the knots came undone from the sweat which happens. I did a round or two without having the knots that were used to make handles but gripping it hard enough to remain efficient was tough and my hands kept sliding where the band nearly slipped out of my hands. After those rounds, I moved fast to wipe down the sweat and create new knots in them and tightened them as much as possible so the chances of them slipping out again was very slim. It worked so I was hammering away again. That was probably my longest "rest" since after each round I would mark off the circuit. 

The last few rounds were hard believe me but I still felt like I was in a groove and focused to the point where everything other than the exercises and the marking off went black. It felt like being in a different realm, I swear I thought I was somewhere else and the only thing I noticed was the band and the moves. I barely even remember what songs played on my spotify, that's how far out I was in that workout. The last three rounds, basically felt like a sprint, just going sonic the hedgehog on that fucker and keeping form as best as possible. The last round, I put practically my entire heart and soul into it before the timer went off and finish strong.

At the end, sweat pouring out of me, my durag on the floor cause during one of the rounds towards the end it got knocked off my head but I just didn't stop to care it happened, high as kite, breathing like I went into a battle and seeing how many rounds I got in was just icing on the cake. I managed 29 Rounds in 1 HOUR!!! that's an average of just over 2 minutes per round. I wanted to drop and die right there but I had to get back home somehow and nobody was in there so I don't think they'd want to see some dude lying on the floor in a puddle of his own sweat. I unhooked everything, put them in my little bag, grabbed my keys and walked out of there back to the apartment. 

Saying the shower felt like being in a rainfall in the amazon would be an understatement. Just feeling good all over, no soreness and the surge of positive energy was at peak levels. Can you say dopamine high? No drugs or alcohol, just good old fashioned post workout bliss. 

A workout like this doesn't happen all the time, quite frankly most of the time it rarely goes past 35 minutes and I wanted to challenge myself to see how many rounds I can get in 60 minutes. Safe to say I thought I'd get in at least 25 but I went more than that and I'm happy I did it. This band is a phenomenal tool you can add to your arsenal, it doesn't need to be relied on but it has usefulness that even Olympic Caliber Wrestlers would agree with. These men and women use bands like these to reach peak levels of conditioning that are unbelievable. In the recent Olympics, one woman won gold in Freestyle Wrestling at the age of 21 for the United States in the 68 kg weight class (Amit Elor) and credits Dopamineo as part of her training. Several men have medaled as well in the last three Olympics from various countries. It builds champions and world-class athletes.

Why It's Important To Master The Art Of Training Anywhere

 Mastery, is a word that people carry around at times and not only believe it, but indulge in it to the degree that they make it sound like they're better than anybody else when in fact they're not a master at all. It takes discipline, time, patience and observation along with the obvious application at the thing you are striving to master. 

Now when people say they've mastered something, listen to how they say it. The tone in their voice, the expressions, the way they may even write about and the personality behind it. Some treat it like it's a gift and something that they cherish and want others to work at it too. Others, are just plain arrogant about it and treat it as if they're some kind of emperor/king/duke or whatever and act like they can talk down to people and that they can't do cause out of 8 billion people in the world, he/she is the only true master. Quite the bullshit way of them don't you think?

Learning from several masters of their craft that range from strength athletics to concert virtuosos to bodybuilders and powerlifters, you begin to pick up on things that aren't always seen. One of the true masters of Strongmanism, Bud Jeffries, was cunning and methodical in how he did things. He didn't lift and do things the same others have. At first glance, it may look ugly to the untrained eye but once you understood his positioning, the way he conducted himself in workouts and the way he spoke about it, you were seeing a rare breed of a human being that was in a class by himself. He was doing things outside the norms and it wasn't just squatting a 700 lb barbell or sprinting with a tire behind him, he made his training look like a unique blend of practicality mixed with nutty formats of unbelievable strength that will never be duplicated. 

The point for this article however, is to see how you can possess the knowledge to train no matter where you are because if you truly want to understand the world of physical culture, you need to learn about the old timers and how they were able to do incredible things before supplements, steroids, PED's and (ironically) without going to a gym on a consistent basis. Back in the day, a gym was very different; there were no machines to work your hamstrings or to pulldown with a metal bar, no treadmills to run on for cardio and sure as hell there weren't rubber tubes to pull. There were Global Barbells & Dumbbells, Indian Clubs, Hand Crafted Racks, Pulleys that were strung together on walls, gymnastics equipment and of course Mats made for those who practiced wrestling, Japanese Jiu Jitsu and other arts that were part of the era. They weren't even called Gyms, they were called in most places, Health Clubs or a club named after an instructor or someone famous of the time or a YMCA. 

The old timers, had to be craftier than those of today. Many of them were laborers, farmers, miners or whatever and needed an outlet to work their bodies outside of those insane jobs of the time. Some worked in the Carnival and would train to take on all comers in either lifting or wrestling. There were strongmen who didn't even see a barbell until they were in their early-mid teens or older. Compare that today when you have 10 year olds doing things with a barbell or dumbbell. Back then, they relied mainly on the things they worked with or used sports such as Baseball, Wrestling, Boxing or something else to get their cardio going. They had tons of sparring partners or others to lift with because since there were no cell phones, tvs or the internet for that matter, the distractions were far less. 

Having a mindset like this is a key ingredient to mastering the ability to train anywhere. You learn to blend the old world with the new using bits and pieces that suit your goals. Yes it's true, bodyweight training is the Michael Jordan of anywhere, anytime exercise but it's only a piece of the puzzle. If all you do is bodyweight, awesome, that's your style. It was my style too for a long time. I believe in variety and applying ways to train that go beyond bodyweight training, it's another tool in the box that's part of your journey. Now when it comes to variety, yeah it's important to know what you want to do and how to utilize them in ways you'll see fit. Obviously we can't travel with barbell plates, a bar and a dumbbell rack in our suitcase, but we can use that old school aspect by finding things like rocks, logs and other things on our travels. Yes there's a gym on just about every corner in every major city, but we must learn to not rely on the gym itself to make ourselves strong and healthy.

Gyms provide things that we don't always have at home or on the road like camping for example, they have uses that are beneficial, but too many rely or are stuck into believing equipment is the only way to train. That's where certain things like building a home gym can be beneficial. It saves more money than you'll believe than a regular gym but it's also important to know what equipment to have so you can get the most benefit. Some hotels have a gym but not all and some areas don't have a gym around for miles on end. When it comes to equipment, find things that are easy to travel with that can be put into a backpack or suitcase. For me, I'll take my WorldFit Iso Trainer, My Dopa Band and an ab wheel or my other Isometric Strap and I have all the equipment I need when I travel. If it's too much for you to travel with things other than your clothes and essentials, that's great, you still have bodyweight training to count on. 

True mastery in this case is that you have built a mindset, the knowledge and the awareness that no matter where you are, you can always find a way to train. You won't always be able to get to a machine or do power lifts, but you can still build strength and fitness that matters. In this pursuit of knowledge, learn exercises from a bodyweight point of view first and foremost, that's your foundation. Whatever comes next, be resourceful and find things that are practical and can easily carry around. At times, I'll grab my half tire, put my hammers in my backpack and walk to the park that isn't far so I can train with them, it's not fun carrying those things cause it goes up to 100 lbs overall with those fuckers but the reward is to do things out in the open air and train your ass off using things that matter to you. Carrying them back after kicking your ass can be a bitch though. You do what you have to do. 

Master these ideals and you're on your way to having a journey that will take you on many roads. Share your knowledge with enthusiasm and do your best to share it without being an asshole. There's too many of those in this world, kindness isn't a weakness but don't be a pushover either. Hold this mastery sacred but don't be like Gollum with the ring, that can get you into the fires of Mordor (talk about geeking out for a moment) or in other words, it can bite you back in the ass. Be a badass in your mastery and don't stop being Amazingly Awesome.
