Isometrics for Super Strength

This particular type of training is a great way to not only increase physical exercise but it makes you work the mind as well. Unlike other forms of exercises (Bodyweight, weight training or other forms of resistance training) Isometrics are in a class all in their own and lol believe it or not their difficult to do. When you learn to control whats difficult and master my god man you're on your way to achieve higher and higher goals and you just want to keep driving. Isometrics make you flex multiple muscle groups even the joints in your body without having to move. Pushing against a wall or holding onto a pull-up bar thats an isometric your tensing to stay on and when you can hold for a good amount of time, damn man you're building strength. With this training and adding to your current regimen or something to start with, they will help you increase your strength and improve your physique. There are thousands of ways to do Isometrics so you have a wide variety to choose from for example, wall chairs: sit against the wall and squat until you're almost parellel to the floor and hold, squeeze those legs a few seconds, relax and repeat. Thats an isometric or multiple contractions. They make the muscle fibers work hard and just like regular training they break down and have to repair. When they put themselves back together it creates more muscle and strength. So to make them more difficult either do multiple flexes or flex a certain group one at a time and just shoot for it and make them work. People say Isometrics are nothing but a way to just stand there and flex and you wont gain strength well my friends look at some of the strongest men and women on the planet either at one time or another they did this kinda training and achieved unbelieveable results so you whatever you decide to do thats your choice and if it works do it. Building strength isnt always physical but mentally it makes you much stronger. Work on them, research them and just try them for yourself and you'll see how awesome they can be.

Hindu Squats

Probably by far one of the best exercises for the legs and overall body conditioning. It strengthens the legs, hips, calves, butt, chest, arms and back. What a lethal combo dont you think. Never be afraid to bring the knees foward, that helps strengthen the knees, it did for mine. Now some people shouldnt do this but I believe 98% of the people who can will benefit from just got to try. If you're in football you will build strength as well as cardiovascular conditioning for the 40 yrd dash or just keep your legs durable for those final moments in the game where most of the guys are warn out. Its great for all sports and better yet its great for your health cause it strengthens the internal organs, heart, kidneys, lungs, liver everything. Give this one a go and soon enough you'll have legs of a tree trunk while having tri-athlete endurance.


Heres the way to do them correctly.

Leverage Lifting And The Man Who Made It Possible!

Its rarely seen these days and its starting to bubble as a straight shooting training tool to develop a powerful grip. I'm talking about leverage lifting or in other words, train with a sledge hammer. There are quite a few ways to do this for one, take a sledge hammer and hold it straight up with a straight arm, now by using the power of your wrist, tilt the hammer to your face and bring it back without bending too much of the elbow, or two, lift the hammer off the ground from the bottom of the handle, very tough and must coordinated precisely or you just wont make the lift. Thats 2 I can come up with right i'll leave the others to your improvsation. Now how did all this kind of training get started, well it began with an 18 year old worker in a pennsylvania quarry and this young developed a certain natural strength by swinging a 16 pound hammer and cutting stone on a per ton basis 12-14 hours a day, 6-7 days a week. At a small show in gilbertsville this young man was watching a legendary strongman by the name of Joseph Greenstein aka The Mighty Atom. Atom asked the audience that at his age (back in his 70's I believe) he can only bend this 6 inch spike and out of the crowd the young teen shouted "You aint talking to me old man." So the young man went up to the stage and with no trouble he bent that spike into a "U" Shape. Now the way he did it was unheard of, he bent it downward from the chest up and the old man was in awe as he never saw anything like that in all his years as a strongman. From that day foward this young man became known as the living legend and the last of the old-time strongmen. His name is Lawrance Farman aka Slim The Hammer Man. This man broke not just his hands but records that can never be matched in the anils of hammer lifting. This man is one of my hereos and I learned from watching this man that I wanted to built a powerful grip by not only training with hammers but many others. He in my opinion will never be matched ever. You can break weightlifting records you can break strongman records but never will someone be able to break hammer records unless you're to sacrifice your body by breaking wrists, hurting your head and god knows what else.


Never believe you're too old or too small to be strong, always believe that you will be strong.
