Going from weak and flabby to awesomely lean and crazy strong isn't impossible, it is a reality and you have an opportunity to make it happen. I've been a fanatic for Ed Baran's Courses for roughly a decade and have seen my body change off and on in a positive way but the one thing that never changed was how much fun I was having and that time was never an issue. This one course however is one that I should've had when I was a teenager and who knows what would've gone down if I started this.
In the words of Magnum P.I, "I know what you're thinking", not another off the wall testimonial or a stupid and lame attempt to help sell a course but yet it isn't stupid or lame at all. You've heard my story about breaking my legs and my recovery so it doesn't bare repeating; however, I started out with just a book on bodyweight exercises and just pick and chose the exercises going along with them, I didn't have a full on instructional element to progress in a very specific manner. This is where Baran Brothers' Basic Bodyweight Building Blocks come in.
It lays down the groundwork down to the very root of how to progress and advance to greater exercises to build that foundation and harness your strength to become a better individual physically, mentally and emotionally. This isn't just some rinky dink program from the shelves of a mediocre book store, this is a top level system that takes you to the very core of getting into awesome shape without the need of Supplements, Drugs, Machines or the Gym. Many courses show just hints of how to get better, this goes into deep and scary details of what to do and where to go when it gets easier and how to apply the exercises in specific workouts without all the confusion.
It's not fun getting older in the sense where after our 20's and some point during our 30's, our bodies don't have the same energy levels and can't metabolize as it use to; we can though prevent ourselves from going off the wagon and maintaining great shape. It's not as easy as when we were younger but it doesn't have to so damn difficult and frustrating. Sometimes its good to rebuild that foundation and get into the habit of staying lean and strong regardless of age. Don't let age and your body be a downfall, let it be an opportunity to be reborn again in the sense where your body is the tool and taking it to a level that is close in reach and able to reclaim that youthful look or even better than when you were younger. I'm 33 and have greater energy and strength than I ever did at 18 so imagine if someone over 40 can have the same.
Hone that foundation and build your blocks to your monument of a physique that doesn't just look awesome but has the go along with it. It's never too late to start and be able to go at your own pace anywhere you wish.

Have You Ever Been Stuck In A Rut?
At the start on our path of achieving a kick ass physique, it is common to hit a sticking point or plateau. Often we'll end up stuck there and don't know how to get out of it. If you feel you're in a rut then ask yourself these 3 questions:
1. Do I deserve the body I want to achieve?
Are you worthy of developing a body that is supreme and lean? Many people firmly believe that they don't and why is that? Mainly because they feel they're not pushing past the limits or suffered in order to make gains or lose bodyfat. I've seen a number of people in the gym and those I've helped train see awesome results but have stopped because they felt like they didn't deserve it. A lot of us in the world really don't see ourselves as crazy fit so we stop dead in our tracks even when we get the best results.
It's like seeing themselves in the mirror and not see the same thing everyone else sees. It can be very painful and even traumatic to a degree but the fact of the matter is everyone no matter how old they are or what level they're at have every opportunity to create the body they want even if they have abused or neglected it in the past. You still can have a kick ass body and when you make the decision to make it work for you, it'll seem like magic and your physique will come even when you fall off the wagon every now and then, just don't make it a habit.
Don't you deserve to have food if you're hungry or to wear something warm and fuzzy when you're cold? Nothing will make you less worthy to something that isn't in your right naturally.
2. Am I impatient?
I have fallen into this many times since I was 13 years old. It's the need for instant results but in a nutshell, that ain't going to happen guys ESPECIALLY if you have been inactive for a long time. We all heard of those stupid ass "magic" pills and why they're soooo popular. Truth is, they don't do jack but give people hope and the illusion of quick and easy results.
When you stick with it and look at things at a larger perspective, you most certainly can get to where you want to go. A lot of people don't want to do what's needed to be done but in reality, getting fit isn't really that hard as a bunch of pricks make it out to be.
If you have the idea of what works and is giving you results, you'll have the patience and stick it out. Consistency is the key.
3. Am I having an adventure and it is fun?
To me this is the most critical question. I was told to be so damn serious about my training that if you're having fun, you're not training right. I learned later on that working out shouldn't be work, hence why I call it playout. You make a real effort but it isn't all torturous and devilish hell.
Many times in my training felt like crap and I hated it but yet I was told it had to be done. Shit, what kind of motivation is that? I'd be more motivated to prank Donald Trump by calling and saying "The oompa loompas called, they want their skin color back" then to feel like crap during a workout I can't stand. I've been through the motions of spinning the wheels and doing exercises I just didn't care for but that was mainly because I didn't want to feel weak and not be able to handle myself. It could only take you so far, trust me.
This is why Animal Exercises like Animal Kingdom Conditioning 1 & Animal Kingdom Conditioning 2 have been my go-to method for training as it brings adventure, excitement and learning something that interests me. They don't take a lot of time, they're extremely effective and above all can be seriously addicting. I have gone over an hour with them and it made me beg for more. Routines don't have to be so damn strict if you don't want to and just BE!!!
Are you really in need to love exercise? I don't think so but you shouldn't hate it either. On some level at least enjoy it man. I want you to answer these universal questions and find an insight into why on this beautiful earth you're stuck in a rut. Take baby steps and take your rightful place in animal awesomeness.

Who Else Wants Morning Wood?....GUARANTEED?? BIG SAVINGS INSIDE!!!
This may sound too good to be true...However, one of my favorite herbal company's (Lost Empire Herbs') best selling product GUARANTEES just that! And they've got the BEST version on the market available.
It's called Pine Pollen.It's LOADED with over 200 bioactive vitamins, minerals, AND phyto-androgens (natural plant steroids that boost free T in humans)...
... which fights off the free radicals causing penile problems.
... floods your system with nitric oxide (the critical nutrient your body needs to get you hard).
... gives your body androgens (the foundational hormones that create testosterone).
"I tried pine pollen and was skeptical of the benefits. I use it in my morning smoothies and noticed the things down below became more “Rock Solid’ as well as seeing a boost in strength. I really could tell when I went a couple of months of not taking the supplement. I continued to lift weights and noticed I wasn’t making any gains in strength. I ordered a megadose and within two days of consuming the product, I almost doubled my reps in the gym. This is by far the best bang for the buck of supplements that I have ever tried." - Earl Heath
Because they're having their WINTER SALE they're giving YOU 15% off ALL their products, including their infamous, raw and wild-harvested Pine Pollen.
So if you want to wake up in 2018 with morning wood... this is an awesome time to invest in your health.
Save now with code: 2018 at checkout for 15% savings, along with freebies added to every order (Bonus Details Here)
If you want the BEST results, to crank up your T, wake up with morning wood FAST then I recommend combining any of the Pine Pollen POWDERS with the TINCTURE. That's because the powder has all the bioactive vitamins and the tincture gives you a DIRECT dose (almost like an injection) of androgens.
Just remember that cycling the tincture is highly recommended.

The #1 Herb At Lost Empire Herbs
Do you know what the #1 herb is at Lost Empire? It is Pine Pollen Tincture.
The Pine Pollen Powder has been known to be a close second, however the tincture moves way more units every month or so. It has moved so freaking fast, the company had trouble keeping up stock, as of late though, they have increased their batch sizes. The last batch was 10,000 BOTTLES! Now there shouldn't be a big issue moving onward unless the demand has to jump again.
A lot of people around the globe know the powers and knowledge about Pine Pollen so far for its yellow powder coating their cars. In the western world, it's just breaking out of its shell to the public eye. Let's count ourselves lucky for knowing this when the rest do not.
I encourage you to keep spreading the word on this. The main reason for its popularity is because of its effects on HORMONES! To continue on having a vibrant and vigorous life, it is vitally important to keep your hormones intact. It is however sad in this modern age and only going to get tougher. The blog posts on the site shown overall how men today have far less testosterone than those of the past. This is caused by just about everything from plastics to harmful pesticides and even EMF's.
We need a major support. Now it isn't just the guys who've got it bad, the women may have it even worse because of the added complexity of their hormones. Not to fear, this is where the mighty strength of Pine Pollen comes into play. Providing certain trace amounts of Androgens, it could very well for a lot of women as well.
Some people however don't use the tincture like my friend and Lost Empire owner Logan Christopher and even for someone as powerful as he is, it is too strong for him. His last blood test showed a testosterone count of 992. He doesn't need Pine Pollen as he's only 32 but that wasn't always the case. Some years back he felt his hormones weren't in the best of places despite being so young but for certain reasons let's not get into that. He felt like he was born with less testosterone than the average guy. The tincture and other herbs like Tongkat Ali, were very helpful in building a better baseline and now can maintain it without them.
Now it wasn't just the physical actions the herbs were effective on, but they were also effective on the emotional and mental aspects as well. If you haven't tried the Tincture, I suggest you do so by going here. Granted if you have tried it then you know damn well that it works for 4 out of 5 people. It is now the perfect time to stock up as it is Lost Empire's End Of Year Sale and by using the coupon code 2018 at checkout, you'll get 15% plus some big time bonus' as well depending on the size of your order.
Jump on this NOW and jumpstart your system with a powerful dose of Pine Pollen Tincture and other mighty Herbs.

A Gift Is One Of A Personal Entity That Makes It Special
Don't get me wrong, giving someone a gift is better than no gift at all but where's the personal attachment behind it? To me nothing says gift more than sending someone love and positive energy their way, it doesn't have to be a physical material to make someone happy. As a kid growing up, there were gifts for birthdays and holidays that meant the world to me and still use them to this day but others were great but I never felt it being personal due to it being random or just a gift card.
I'am grateful for all the gifts I have received over the years but now that I'm older and I understand the concept of how gifting works both on an emotional level and physically giving someone something. The Secret Santa thing is a great idea but unless you know the person you're a Secret Santa to very well, it can be a bit of a burden on your part to what to give them that you know they may like. If you're open to the idea of giving someone something you know deep down in your soul you know damn well that they'll love, it shows more than just getting a gift, it shows your character and shows that you make it personal and wholesome for them. I never even liked the idea of someone using my name to get someone a gift that I had no control over and had no say of what to get them, to me that is almost hurtful and impersonal at its highest level. If you're doing a gift, you make sure you're in on it 100% with the knowledge and the idea of what's in your control of the situation.
It doesn't matter if its a gift for your best friend, an acquaintance, a relative or a little kid, you want to make it memorable for that person and something that says that they know it was YOU!!! You want to give them that excitement of joy and smiles that just light up a room not to boost your ego or make it that you're a better gifter, its to let them bask in that radiant energy that makes them feel warm, emotionally in the moment and feeling amazing about what you have given them. Sure kids these days want Kindles, Laptops, XBOX's, Iphones and even a trip to Disneyland if they are SO ambitious but even in this day and age, if you find a gift that makes it memorable they'll never forget it regardless of what it is. I'll never forget the first Christmas I had with my girlfriend's family, I got her dad a Kansas City Chiefs Football Card of one of his favorite players and he just lit up like a little kid and you can see it in his eyes he loved that thing. My girl got some cool stuff too including a few Star Wars collectibles and other things but the way she just smiled and grinning from ear to ear, it made me feel awesome that I could do that for her.
Whether you're on a budget or stinking rich, making things memorable for that person is what counts more than anything else. If you're really ambitious, make something yourself or write something original, make it unique and something that no one else can give them. Don't just go for a random gift and expect them to like it, whatever you give them, their reaction is out of your control so be creative and learn what they love, it shows that you made a real effort, not that your intentions and effort aren't productive but a real emotional investment.
Here are a few places to get ideas for that awesome gift......

Isometrics Are The Ultimate Anytime Workout
You can create virtually a limitless amount of exercises throughout the day that give you clarity, strength and muscular definition without ever moving a muscle. Once you understand the concept of Isometric Exercise, you will never have an excuse to not workout ever again. Many have this illusion of an idea that in order to have a workout you need a gym, equipment and a plan in order to succeed in fitness; that's only part of a huge idea but not as big of a part as you may think.
One of the reasons why I love isometrics so much is that no matter where I Am, I can flex, push, pull, grip and squat at any given time. This comes in handy when you're in line at a particular place say waiting at a restaurant, at the movie theater about to get popcorn and a soda, at an atm getting some cash out or even (my personal favorite) in line for a ride at Disneyland; seriously how fun would it be to press, pull or do a wall sit at Splash Mountain or Pirates Of The Caribbean? I know it's a workout in itself moving around the Happiest Place On Earth just by the walking and running to get a fastpass yet you can develop muscle on any body part using your imagination (what better way to use that word than THAT place).
Another notion of fitness people seem to think or been taught is that you only need one workout 3x a week and that's it; bullshit. Sure you can go to a gym and jump on a machine or lift a few heavy things which i'm all for it is better than nothing but also it keeps you closed off from the true secrets of exercise and applying it regardless of where you are. Let me tell you a story; I'm in line at The World Of Tomorrow just chillin a bit with quite a number people surrounding me waiting like I Am to get in and I decided to do a Handstand, not against the wall but free-handed and held it for about 10-15 seconds (to this day I'm in awe that I pulled that off) and some people gave me a few looks like I was nuts but I didn't care, I even did a few hindu squats in the middle there to pass the time; the point to this is that if you an use your imagination and safely do exercise anywhere, you have unlocked the biggest door in the fitness industry.
Isometrics generate positional strength, high oxygenated blood (when relaxed) and programs your mind to use anything in your surroundings. When you tap into that realm of becoming strong at any position and develop definition that takes on a life of its own, you have the power to create any program you want. People tear down Isometrics for mainly three reasons: They don't understand it, to promote weightlifting as the one all be all and to make use of their own egotistical aspirations that it never works and doesn't do a damn thing to your body. It creates internal power beyond belief and is one of the fastest methods to burn fat and put on muscular definition quick. Even if you don't have any goals to lose weight, Isometrics provides the means to get rid of unwanted fat and developing denser muscle. So even if you weighed 200 pounds but overweight, with the practice of Isometrics you can still weigh exactly the same but have denser looking muscularity.
Make Isometrics a part of your routine, if you need a pick-me-up just do a wall sit for 30 seconds or press/pull against a chair, press your hands together for ten seconds while sitting in a couch or a chair, put your fist against a wall, hold a plank, pull on a towel while you dry off after a shower; there are so many ways you can use this method throughout the day. Open up to possibilities and transform yourself both internally and externally.
I do Isometrics practically everyday from a full 20-25 minute playout to various exercises in a given day, pay attention to them and breathe correctly so you don't injure yourself. What's stopping you?
