Killer Isometric Workout That Tests Incredible Strength And Conditioning

 Did you read my article on Isometric Experimentation? Well, I got another one for you that was pretty brutal but it was great to try out. That's the beauty of Isometric Training, the possibilities are endless and there many ways to get in a great workout without breaking the body. This workout however, tested me in not just strength but endurance as well. I combined Push-Up Holds and 7-12 Second Isometric Contractions to create the type of training that forces you to handle yielding and overcoming isometrics separately to really dig into the muscles and legit test yourself in ways that seem something out of the Shaolin Monks (I did say seem but not exact).

Sweat was literally pouring out of me like a waterfall and was hitting muscles that I didn't even realize I was targeting. At times it felt like torture but it was necessary to see what I was capable of and what I can accomplish. Guys like Steve Justa & Bud Jeffries were in many cases, the big two when it came to experimenting with Isometrics in extreme ways that people thought they were crazy. It made them strong, there never be a question of that and I think they'd be proud of what I tried to do when it came to conditioning using only Isometrics. 

This was brutal, hard and one of the most insane workouts I've ever tried when it came to Isometrics. Every other exercise was either a 1 Minute Push-up or an intense contraction for a few seconds that really hammered the tendons and ligaments and pushed strength to another level without weights and the only things used was a floor, a wall and the Worldfit Iso Trainer. Do not attempt this if you're new to Isometric Training and if you think this is easy, you've got another thing coming. You will sweat, you will feel things that are out there and you may feel lighter on your feet than you have in quite a while. Take a gander and see what you can do. FYI, I didn't do a lot of resting between exercises either so this will add a cardio element to it.....The 1 Min Push-up in this case is on the fists at 30 sec at the top and 30 sec holding the mid position and the objective is to not let the chest touch the floor. The other exercises are 7-12 Second Contractions at 70-85% Intensity. 

1 Min Push-Up

Wall Sit (Feet Flat)

1 Min Push-Up

Wall Sit (Heels Up)

1 Min Push-Up

Wall Sit (Toes Up)

1 Min Push-Up

3 Position Curl w/ WorldFit Iso Trainer

1 Min Push-Up

3 Position Overhead Press w/ WorldFit Iso Trainer

1 Min Push-Up

3 Position Deadlift w/ WorldFit Iso Trainer

1 Minute Push-Up

Core (Hollow Body, Arch Body, Dead Bug, Side Bends w/ Legs Wide/Shoulder Width & Feet Together)

1 Min Push-Up

All Together, you're looking 8-1 Min Push-Ups & 21 7-12 Sec Isometric Exercises. This took me around 35 minutes or so to complete. It was one of the most exhausting workouts I've ever put myself through and just to let you know, not one time my chest touched the floor in the push-ups, I wanted to drop a time or two but I knew I needed to tighten up and focus on my breathing. You could've filled cup after cup of sweat that was drained out of me. I did feel lighter and that post workout shower was one of the best I've ever had bar none. My chest, my core, my forearms, my back felt like steel, hard as fucking stone man. This is strength that matters and muscular endurance that isn't always utilized. 

Minimal Equipment, a desire and a twisted imagination to turn a series of exercises that are simple and not flashy but will humble practically anybody and make them crazy strong in ways that is indescribable. I'm still feeling the effects of this workout right now and before going to bed last night, I knocked off 500 Step Ups just to get some excess energy out. Great workout.

Be amazingly awesome and if you want to try this workout, for the intense contractions (press, deadlift, curl) you can use a towel or your own bodyweight if you don't have the trainer (I highly recommend it though). You can do the push-up in different variations if you wish like using handles, on the palms to really target the muscles differently. Don't say I didn't warn you. 

Isometric Experimentation

 I like coming up with stuff to train differently or put them in a different perspective. That's the beauty of fitness, you learn various things and experiment while setting goals and getting the most out of what's possible. In this case of experimentation, I've been working on a Isometric Style program that blends TUT (Time Under Tension) and 7-12 Second Intense Contractions with the 1 Minute Push-Up.

Have done a few so far and it really has me going through a routine that switches up some muscle groups and working the Core & Legs consistently. I'd start it by doing the 1 Minute Push-up (On my fists) for 30 Seconds at the top, 30 seconds at mid point (doing my best to not have the chest touch the floor) and then go into a 7-12 second intense isometric exercise in three positions (Like the Curl or Deadlift for example), rest a bit, do another 1 minute push-up, another Iso exercise and so on until I've completed whatever exercises and the push-up. I'll do up to say 5 1 minute push-ups and many 7-12 second contraction exercises at 70-85% max. Here's a sample workout I've done....

1 Minute Push-up

Wall Sit (Feet Flat. Heels Up, Toes Up)

1 Minute Push-Up

Core (Hollow Body, Dead Bug, Arch Body, Side Bends (Feet Wide, Feet Shoulder Width, Feet Together))

1 Minute Push-Up

Overhead Press

1 Minute Push-Up

Curl

1 Minute Push-Up

Total: 5 1 Minute Push-Ups & 15 7-12 Second Contractions

This is a hell of a workout and gives off some crazy vibes at the end. Not easy by any stretch and it adds an element to ancient techniques mixed with modern strength training. 

Last night, I tried another experiment where I did a Superset of the 1 Minute Push-Up and a 1 Minute Wall Sit. Did 3x with little to no rest. This is a different look at keeping TUT instead of just doing reps of squats and push-ups. Nothing wrong with doing them dynamically, those are essential but this builds a different level of strength and conditioning. This is more in tuned for joint health and working the little muscles, toughening up the tendons and lessening the chances of having knee pain, elbow and shoulder issues. As a Superset, it becomes a battle of the lactic acid that builds up as you do more sets. I only did 3 but I plan on doing more and seeing what's possible. If rest is needed at first, do so but the objective is to test your mental fortitude and physical endurance. These can also harden the muscles to where they'll feel like solid oak lol. Shaolin Monks would do something similar but they would go for long ass periods of time and they're pound for pound strong motherfuckers. 

This is where Isometrics becomes something that is needed in the realm of health and fitness, it's not always about ego and seeing if you're better than anyone else, it's about what you can do that becomes better and better as time goes on. You can go long, you can shorten it to a micro workout, whatever you want to do but remember to find what works best for you. Isometrics have been getting a bit more traction as of late because of studies being done but it's still a very underrated style of training because it's not shiny or always some exciting blend of crazy moves that seem almost acrobatic or speeded up; it's tough, hard yet so simple, can seem boring cause you're just holding positions but in the end, some of the strongest and athletic people on the planet do Isometric Training. From Dan Gable to the Great Gama, Baseball Legends like Mickey Mantle & Hank Aaron did them, fighters such as high ranking Boxers and BJJ Legend Royce Gracie did them, they're part of a puzzle that we don't normally see under the surface.

Isometric Training has benefits that can be not only Game-Changing but Life Changing As well. What would it be like to go through your golden years with little to no pain in your joints, your muscles are as strong as ever and you can still do things with the grandkids, be active without being hurt, get up off the floor without being in agony and even feel like you're light on your feet. That's the true goal in life, to have strength that lasts, powerful ligaments that lessen the chance of hip/shoulder/knee replacements and have the stamina to keep up with the little ones. See what I'm saying? Give them a go. Books & Courses such as Overcoming Isometrics cand give you plenty to keep you on your toes and be able to Strength Train without wrecking yourself. 

Be amazingly awesome and stay strong.  

Unlock Your Inner Bear: The Power of Bear Crawl Sprints

When it comes to building strength, speed, and agility, traditional sprinting is often at the top of the list. But what if you could take your sprinting to the next level by incorporating a primal, full-body movement that challenges your entire physique? Enter bear crawl sprints, one of the most intense yet simple exercises that's about to amplify your workout routine.

What is Bear Crawl Sprinting?

The Bear Crawl is a quadrupedal movement that involves moving on all fours, with your hands and feet in contact with the ground. It's a natural, animalistic movement that engages your entire body, from your shoulders and arms to your core, hips, and legs. By adding a sprinting element to the mix, you'll be upping the intensity and reap a multitude of benefits that go beyond traditional sprinting.

Benefits of Bear Crawl Sprints

1. Full-Body Engagement: Bear Crawl Sprints are a true full-body exercise, engaging your arms, legs, core, and hips in a single, fluid movement. This integrated approach strengthens your entire physique, improving overall power, speed, and coordination.

2. Injury-Resistant Strengthening: Unlike traditional sprinting, which can be high-impact and stressful on your joints, bear crawl sprints offer a lower-impact alternative that may be easier on your joints. This makes it an ideal exercise for those looking to build strength without sacrificing joint health.

3. Improved Coordination and Agility: Bear Crawling requires coordination and agility, challenging your brain to communicate with your muscles in new and exciting ways. As you progress, you'll notice significant improvements in your overall athleticism and reaction time.

4. Core Strength and Stability: The positioning in this exercise demands engagement from your core muscles, including your abs, obliques, and lower back. By sprinting in this position, you'll develop rock-solid core strength and stability that translates to improved performance in other exercises and sports. Wrestlers and Football Players know this very well.

5. Increased Metabolism and Fat Loss: Very intense exercises like Bear Crawl Sprints are proven to boost your metabolism and ignite fat loss. By incorporating this exercise into your routine, you'll be tapping into a potent fat-burning mechanism that will help you achieve your physique goals. 

6. Enhanced Neuromuscular Connection: Sprinting in this manner require a high level of neuromuscular coordination, challenging the brain to communicate with your muscles in new and complex ways. As you master this exercise, you'll develop a stronger connection between your nervous system and muscles, leading to improved overall strength and athleticism.

A good solid workout doing this takes no more than 5 minutes. You can increase time as you get better but it's not a requirement because the workout itself is so intense. My favorite is just going for 10 seconds, rest 20 seconds and repeat that for a total of about 5 minutes, that's it and you're good to go. This could be a finisher to your regular routine to boost your conditioning and/or calorie burning or it can be used on it's own where you go hard and do something later. I've only done it a couple times as a finisher and it was brutal as hell. On it's own, just raw and intense that makes me want to sleep it off afterwards when my breath returns to normal. 

Bear crawl sprints are a game-changing exercise that can take your strength training and athleticism into new and exciting territory. By incorporating this primal, full-body movement into your workout routine, you'll develop rock-solid strength, explosive power, and a leaner, more athletic physique. So why not unleash your inner beast and give bear crawl sprints a go? Your body – and mind – will thank you.

Be amazingly awesome and become a wild beast.

Fun Animal Workout At The Park

 Yesterday, thought I'd take a stroll to the park and get in the Animal Dice Game. Roll once for animal, roll again for the number of steps of that animal. Man Eddie Baran was a genius coming up with that when he published Animal Kingdom Conditioning all those years ago. 

Went at it for 30 minutes. Walked it off when I needed to and did as many rounds as I can run with it. Lots of Crawling, Jumping, Hopping, Squatting, Going Backwards and feeling the INTENSITY. That's what I love about this type of training, expecting the unexpected and getting in some natural movement. It had been a while since I've done this specific workout so I kept things basic and not go Speedy Gonzales on it. It's still one of the best workouts I'll ever do in my life.

It's the type of training that makes muscles pop (more than just the core or abs), builds great leg strength and conditioning (some quack has said "If you ain't squatting, you ain't training" which he stole that line from Matt Furey but in reality, animal squats and leg movements IMO, are way more interesting than typical squats), makes you feel like a kid again and have that sense of relaxation afterwards that gives off vibes of feeling like a Bazillion Bucks all day long. 

Been doing this off and on since the Combat Conditioning Days and even more so since AKC came out in 2008. The fun of it just makes training come alive. It turns you into a RAGING BEAST that makes you feel unstoppable. I would at times go for more than 45 minutes on this and my longest workout was 82 minutes long, I just didn't want to stop and my energy was off the chain that day. Now does it give you the rank of Superhuman? In this day and age, quite possibly but it's important to not let ego hit you and do something foolish. Be smart about how you do it but also let it thrive in that adventurous nature.

Some of the exercises can be overwhelming at times. Hell, even though a few upper body movements can give you shoulders like boulders, don't forget that it's more about the movement than what specific muscles they build. After some workouts from this, it can make you hungry as hell, the intense movements that make you breathe hard with a fucking vengeance can build up quite an appetite. Still, it's great to get that Rugged, Animal-Like build that it can give. I still say my two favorites are the Gorilla Hop/Jump and the Bear Crawl. Giving off that Grizzly Power vibe that turns you into a fucking stud. Ok that was a bit lame and over the top huh? In reality, the classic Bear Crawl can never go wrong, it has been a staple for wrestlers and fighters for eons. It's one of the exercises Eddie taught to gymnasts as a conditioning coach to help build their handstand strength. One workout of the bear crawl I love to do every now and then is what I learned from some Blue Collar guy where you sprint or at least crawl as best as you can for 5 yards, walk back and repeat until you've done 20. The most I've ever done in this fashion is 45, I've filmed doing more than 30 in just crawling without going into Sonic Mode (this took 10 minutes or so to complete, very hard workout).

Overall, being able to train in a beautiful environment, fresh air, sweat dripping like Niagara Falls and breathing hard like it's going out of style is just awesome. Moving like a beast has a unique effect on the body and when you do it on grass, touching the earth, feeling the soil and letting it into your soul is something like no other. Animal Workouts are almost poetic in a way, it's weird but hey, weird is good in this case. Be wild, be free and be amazingly awesome. 

3 Workouts = 3 Ways To Have A Bad Ass Time

 Some days, you just have that jolt of energy that lasts and you want to use it the best way possible. For me, yesterday was a fun day to do not one, not two but three awesome workouts that were fun to do and felt great in all of them.

Started out with working my neck doing some neck mobility work, moved onto my joint loosening routine to keep things flowing and relaxed, got in one minute of side kick throughs and an agility exercise as well in this workout. A little while later, did a Dopa Band Routine at the park where it was a HIIT style workout where it was 5 exercises for 45 sec on/15 sec off 3 times totaling 15 minutes. After getting back home, chugging some Cherry Liquid Death and chilled for about an hour watching a show on Netflix, went down to the gym, brought my 20 lb Death Star Slam Ball with me (Yes, us Star Wars nerds workout too) and filmed doing a short 5 min session of slamming the ball for 15 sec on/15 sec off for 10 rounds. 

Training like this is a bad ass way to stay active and keep things going when you can't always cram one big workout in. Could I have if I wanted to? Sure, I love going for a half our or longer some of the time but those types of workouts give off killer vibes especially if you want to get projects done later on and get to do a little something here and there throughout the day. 

 The perks of training is learning how to be adaptable and even get a little creative at times. Some don't always have the luxury of getting in an hour long workout, so it's important to figure what you can do in the moment or have that little window of opportunity. There are certain days where I have stuff going on and it's not possible to get some of the workouts in I'd like but that's ok, micro management bro, you can also cut down the amount you normally do or cut down the rest periods. Always keep an eye on the prize though, don't sacrifice form or the feeling of being rushed ruin something good in the timeframe you have. Look into the book Micro Workouts to get more ideas on what you can accomplish in the time you can use. 

Patience isn't one of my biggest virtues or I get anxious when I feel rushed. I never go a day without training, I've written about this enough for you to know by now when it comes down to training every single day without fail for the last 2 decades. This is where knowledge is power and wisdom is strength when you can do something no matter what even if it's for a few minutes. Hell if you have less than 10 minutes, get some squats and push-ups in, do 100 Rollouts with the ab wheel or a small suspension training thing. Isometrics is perfect for those short on time like Horse Stances, Push-up Holds, Handstands, Iso Rows, Wall Sits, whatever tickles your fancy. Be adaptable and if you need to, get something in one the fly, you got this.

Make the time you have count, learn to love knowing even if you can't always get in what you normally do, there's always something else you can do in the meantime. Doing multiple workouts a day can be very beneficial, you don't need 2 hours or even 1, sometimes 5-10 minute sessions can have a greater impact because you can accomplish something quick and still do what you need to do the rest of the day. 

Train with purpose, but also be prepared for the unexpected. Life can be a bitch, so don't let it get the best of you. You are strong, capable and you're a fucking bad ass. Get at it and be amazingly awesome.

On a side note, going off topic for a moment, I want to share with you that my wife got featured in a women's newsletter at Lost Empire Herbs about taking Athena Formula and the results she's had so far with it. You can view it HERE!!! I'm very proud of her progress and she just keeps killing it. Check it out. 

Slamming With Pure Vengeance In 5 Minutes

 

Short Workouts can be not only beneficial to your fitness but also can be very therapeutic when it's so intense that once it's over, you feel like you're walking on Cloud 9. Getting something in as little as 5 minutes with great effort, can have as much of an impact on your conditioning and long term strength within a regular 1 hour workout. 

One of these entities is the classic Slam Ball Slamming. Just picking up a 10-20 ball and slamming it hard to the ground with such such fucking force, you'd think you have hatred in your heart. Just this exercise alone generates incredible benefits of conditioning, strength, explosiveness, lung power and turning you into a machine. They've been used in Wrestling, MMA, Football, Crossfit and other formats of training. They can be used as a finisher, in between sets or as stand alone. 

As a finisher, it is as nasty as it gets, you've already obliterated a workout but you still need to go through hell to get that last bit of a tank you have left and burn more calories than you already have and enhance your muscular endurance. 2 workouts I've done recently were using a slam ball as a finisher, busting ass for 15 on, 15 off for 5 minutes. First workout, I would get in about 4-5 reps a round, the second, I was able to get 6, that's a PR for me. 

For a stand alone, my idea was to get as many reps as possible in 5 minutes which on paper may not sound like much but when you're constantly picking up and slamming as hard as you can and torching the muscles especially the Core, it becomes a mental game of how much you're willing to take. My personal record with a 20 lb Ball is 105 reps in 5 minutes. If you're new to it, take a breather every few reps or so cause you will feel it practically off the bat. Keep a record of how many you've done, each session, try to rest a little less and see if you can get a few more reps in. Little by little keep going until you're able to keep going practically without stopping. Pace yourself and let the speed and explosiveness come naturally. You may not be at the same speed in the beginning and you may slow down as time goes on but you can still go. To do an average of 20 or so reps a minute is pretty damn fast. DO NOT TRY THIS EVERYDAY!!! 1-2 times a week is more than enough, it's practically sprinting without the running. 

This is the type of training where you may not tire out as quickly doing other things and it can enhance your endurance for possibly hiking, swimming, jogging, climbing stairs or doing labor. It will definitely give you boosts of HGH and give you that driving power for takedowns in wrestling, tackles in football and throws in MMA. It is one of the most intense forms of exercise around and it can make you a damn beast either on the mat or on the gridiron. It's simple, yet hard. Short, yet hellish and it will question your sanity whether as a finisher or by itself. 

Be amazingly awesome and never underestimate the power of short workouts and/or finishers, they will make you question your life choices but at the same time, they build toughness and strength that isn't easily described.

Brutalized Conditioning: Animals & Slam Ball Hell

 On Monday, I wanted to test myself to see where my conditioning was at and safe to say, it was one of the hardest workouts I've done in a while. Did other workouts where they were a challenge but nothing like where it tested your sanity along with making the lungs seem like you're going to die LOL.

Thought I'd get into some animal training since it has been a while. Used my deck of cards to do the 4 Animals/Exercises I normally do....

Bear Crawls

Crab Walks

Half/Quarter Squat Walk (Bigfoot Walks)

Duck Walks

Doubled up on the reps and even about 10-15 cards in, I felt like quitting and I was breathing pretty heavily, I kept going anyways. These are no joke and will test you like no other. Finished with a 1000 total reps of these and yet, the workout wasn't even over.

I wanted to really amp it up by doing a finisher with the 20 lb Slam Ball I have and target my explosiveness. Went for 5 minutes doing a 15 on, 15 off protocol. Got in about 4-5 slams per round and slamming that fucker on grass just hits different. This wasn't just a finisher, it was to burn more calories like it was going out of style and build that mental toughness. More than just cardio, it's hell on earth and the battle rages on you against the system you created for yourself. This is the type of training where with other things, you won't tire out as quickly. This is not the typical workout you see many 40 year olds doing so, I wanted to find out what my capabilities were. 

Sometimes you got to go through hell to see what you're made of and what you expect out of yourself. This type of training is more than just exercise and getting in a few quick things, this is the type of hell that makes humans question their mental and physical stability along with testing themselves at peak levels of conditioning. No question pro/world class athletes can probably do this far better than me and it would be hard to try to keep up with that kind of person but at over 40 and not a professional or even calling myself World Class, I believe I did pretty damn well with this and I'd love to test this out with somebody sometime.

Conditioning comes in many forms and the idea for even as you get older is to maintain a level where you don't get tired doing things and can go as long as needed and have that lasting strength and endurance. When you have the ability to go and able to wear out others, it's a great feeling. Karl Gotch said it best "Conditioning is your greatest hold". Fitness is more than just trying to look good, it's about feeling better, being able to do things with less chances of getting injured and being able to have strength that lasts rather than temporarily. The world seems different when you are able to be fit and handle things with grace yet powerful at the same time.

Hellish workouts have their place as a challenge but don't frequent them as it can come back to bite you in the ass. Will I try this again, maybe or switch things up doing the dopa band and sledgehammer work. Strength & Cardio is part of the puzzle but when you throw in the mental aspects, it teaches you how precious and important having those attributes is. Be amazingly awesome and do what's possible. Challenge yourself but don't go so far you can't move or get injured. 

Back To Back Deck Of Cards Dopa Band Workout For 1000 Reps

 

Yesterday was awesome, going to the park down the road and having a blast with the Dopamineo Band. Kids playing at a near by house and I'm just getting ready for a battle that was a test of will, conditioning and maintaining stamina. 

Got my music set up, the strap to the tree, the band hooked in and ready for a workout that some have called me crazy for doing. My deck for the day was my Flash cards. Seeing the fastest superhero to give me inspiration and motivating me to keep going. 

At certain points, your mind begins to wonder a bit but you pick yourself up and keep fighting. Didn't feel tired or exhausted but it was a doozer and those damn Propellers can be a bitch when you have to do 50 of them 4 times. The half way mark in and of itself is one full deck, that's more than enough for most but I knew I got this and just didn't stop.

Once you go through the deck, you reverse it to make it more maniacal (kind of like the Reverse Flash) and see what you're capable of doing. Not one time I wanted to quit but there were times I questioned my sanity cause not everybody does this and it's not a normal type of workout. It's building toughness, physical capabilities and pushing through with the fire coursing through your veins. It's not how fast you can get through it, that's just a piece; it's more about keeping a pace with as good of technique, explosiveness and durability as you can. 

Being out in the fresh air, listening to tunes and doing what I love? From a fitness POV it doesn't get better than that. Feeling the grass beneath your bare feet, feeling the earth and making the most of developing your body in the crisp warm air. It's fucking paradise man. No one is there to hound you, being in a quiet neighborhood and you're by your onesy just having the time of your life. 

After the workout, I walked around a bit, feeling high as a kite, relaxed and happy. It's a great feeling and knowing what this band has done for some of the greatest athletes in the world, it's an honor to be a part of the Dopamineo Community. It's not an easy workout that's for damn sure but it sure as hell is a lot of fun and helps me stay fit while being over 40. The energy, the focus, the sheer power I feel is off the chain. 

Grab a band at Dopamineo.com and don't forget to use my code POWERANDMIGHT at checkout to get a discount. Get some for the kids, your group classes, High School & College Programs and even for training the next generation of World & Olympic Champions. These bands are by far some of the best ever used and it amplifies your fitness and drilling with such intensity, it boggles the mind this isn't more seen. Be amazingly awesome.

These bands aren't just any ordinary resistance bands; they're designed to help you unlock the potential residing within and take your fitness journey to the next level. At the moment, we're going to get a glimpse or an idea of the benefits of using these bad asses and how they can transform your workouts.

What are These Bands?

DopamineO Bands are a type of resistance band that provides a unique way to challenge the muscles and improve overall fitness. They're made from high-quality materials and come in various resistance levels, making them suitable for everyone from beginners to seasoned athletes. Even to the point where kids can use them. The bands are designed to work muscles through a full range of motion, helping to build strength, increase flexibility, and enhance endurance. Not to mention great for rehab/prehab.

What Are The Benefits of Using Them?

So, what makes DopamineO Bands so important to have in your arsenal? The benefits here can give you an idea of what to expect:

1. Increased Strength: The Bands provide continuous tension throughout the many movements you can do, which helps to build strength and muscle endurance. This is especially beneficial for athletes who need to improve their power and explosiveness such as wrestling and MMA.

2. Improved Flexibility: They'll help to increase flexibility by allowing you to move in a broader range of motion. This is perfect for those who struggle with mobility or want to improve their overall flexibility. It doesn't matter if you're an athlete or not, these will help you build a larger spectrum to give your body's ability to move better.

3. Enhanced Endurance: They're designed to challenge your muscles and cardiovascular system, helping to improve your endurance and stamina. This is ideal for athletes who need to perform at a high level for extended periods. Breathwork is important with this too and as your stamina gets better, so will your overall well being.

4. Low-Impact: Unlike traditional weights, the Bands provide a low-impact way to work out, reducing the risk of injury and stress on your joints. Although there are explosive movements for more advanced workouts, you can also tone down the intensity and still have a workout that opens the door to another world. 

5. Portable and Convenient: The bands are lightweight and portable, making them perfect for travel or home workouts. I put them in a drawstring bag and go to the park, the lake or wherever I want to train.

How to Use Them?

1. Focus on Proper Form: Make sure to use proper form and technique when performing exercises with the bands. This will help you get the most out of your workout and reduce the risk of injury. Move With the band, let it become a part of you. 

2. Mix it Up: Don't be afraid to experiment and mix up your routine. DopamineO Bands can be used for a variety of workouts, from strength training to cardio. Have you read about my 500 Rep Workouts? Check it out and give them a go.

Maniacal Conditioning: Burpees Training That Are Worth The Investment

One of the things I believe in when it comes to this industry is the value of one's investment in a course. Not only making it affordable but to thrive in it like a fucking boss. When you invest, you're putting faith and hopes into something that have potential to come back more than what you put in. That type of success is what I love seeing people make for themselves along with building a level of fitness that makes them the talk of the town and doing things they couldn't do before. That is success at it's finest.

For this particular case today, let's take a look at Burpees, one of the meanest forms of conditioning there is. It's brutal, heart pounding and it targets more muscles than we care to count. Burpees have been around a while, in the modern era, it was the product to test one's cardio from Royal H Burpee. In more earlier times, it was a conditioning staple (a variation of it) for wrestlers in the middle east in the art of Kushti called the Sapate. It's a fast pace version of the Hindu Squat & Hindu Push-up. Guys would do hundreds of these and were monsters in the pits. 

Take a glance at what the Sapate really looks like..... 

It's fast but there are other videos if you want to find out how it's broken down little by little. Crazy stuff. People today practice many variations, done a few myself with variations like the Navy Seal Burpee and the Double Push-up with Jump. In the crossfit world, it can get a little out of hand and people get sloppy as hell even after a few reps at times. The objective is to be in control of the movement, not look like you're fish flopping out of water. Another is to focus on using it to progress, not to test the risks of getting injured. That's just bad juju magumbo bro.

Back to the investing in them. There are plenty of courses out there that involve Burpees but very few hold merit to what you get out of it with what you pay for. Specifically, I want you to take a look at what a price comparison is to what you're getting out of it.

First One:

A course dedicated to Burpees that bares little to the imagination in it's Ad Copy, hell I find it less believable than Sam Kinison becoming Amish. The problem with this one, it's on Pre-Order with a "sale" price of $100 (Normally 250) has just under 60 Variations. Most of these are more than likely just generic cookie cutter moves. It has also been on Pre-Order longer than an NFL Season and the odds of it ever coming out is about the same as finding Jimmy Hoffa. 

Second One: The Book Of Burpees

A book that is not only out NOW....But has 100+ Variations that include Bodyweight & with Equipment and is more than 70 DOLLARS CHEAPER!!! These variations will get you going and have some bad ass names to boot to motivate you for creating themes in your sessions or if you're a trainer. The kindle version is $2.99. You get far more for way less. Burpees that will make you beg for mercy and get you fit faster than that Pre-Order I mentioned. It won't even take you a Season of Football to get in killer shape, hell you might already be jacked before mid season let alone the playoffs. 

Think about it....55 Variations for "$100" that's still on hold way longer than Joe DiMaggio's 56 Game hitting streak to 100 Variations for less $27 that can be in your hands in mere days or immediately sent to your kindle. Why play the waiting game? 

Get a hold of the Book Of Burpees and become a beast. Be amazingly awesome and crush your fucking goals. You got this.

A Path to Power, Resilience, and Epic Living: The Bad Ass Benefits Of DDP Yoga

You think you know Yoga? This will give you a perspective on the old and what is unleashed today.  It’s quite a game-changer, a revolution in fitness that’ll ignite your soul and forge your body into a weapon of unstoppable might—DDP Yoga. This ain’t your grandma’s yoga class with lavender candles and soft whispers. Nah, DDP Yoga, created by the legend himself, Diamond Dallas Page, is a hardcore, heart-pounding, sweat-dripping fusion of strength, flexibility, and mental toughness that’ll transform you into a force of nature. Time to strap in, some crazy truth bombs will be dropped on why DDP Yoga is one of the ultimate paths to crushing it in life.

What the Hell Is DDP Yoga?

DDP Yoga isn’t just stretching in a room full of hippies. It’s a high-octane, hybrid workout system that blends yoga’s ancient wisdom with modern fitness intensity. Think dynamic resistance, heart-rate spiking cardio, and core strength moves that make your abs scream for mercy—all while keeping your joints safe and your body moving like a well-oiled machine. Diamond Dallas Page, a pro-wrestling icon, crafted this beast to rebuild himself after a career of getting slammed, and it has been saving lives and building legends ever since.

This is for the grinders, the dreamers, the ones who refuse to quit. Whether you’re a couch potato ready to rise or a gym rat looking to level up, DDP Yoga meets you where you’re at and pushes you to where you’re meant to be. Let’s get a rundown as to why this system is pure, unfiltered BAD ASS.

1. Build a Body That Laughs at Limits

DDP Yoga doesn’t just get you fit—it forges you into a fucking Spartan. The workouts use Dynamic Resistance, a technique where you flex and engage your muscles through every move, turning your body into its own gym (Muscle Control if you will). No weights? No problemo. You’re lifting yourself, and that’s more than enough to build lean muscle, torch fat, and boost strength.

- Real Results, Real Fast: Studies show yoga-based workouts can increase strength by up to 30% in just 8 weeks. DDP Yoga’s high-intensity approach amplifies this, with users reporting insane transformations—think dropping 50+ pounds or going from barely walking to crushing push-ups like a boss.

- Low Impact, High Reward: Unlike pounding the pavement or throwing around heavy iron, DDP Yoga is gentle on your joints. Got bad knees or a creaky back? This is your ticket to moving pain-free while still bringing the heat.

- Core of Steel: Every move fires up your core, giving you that strong midsection and the stability to dominate just about any physical challenge—whether it’s deadlifting a PR or just carrying groceries.

2. Have A Mind As Strong As Superman

In the game of life, your mind is your ultimate weapon. DDP Yoga doesn’t just shape your body; it sharpens your mental edge to cut through any obstacle. The focus on breathing, mindfulness, and pushing through discomfort builds a mindset that screams, “I FUCKING got this!”

- Stress? Obliterated. The deep breathing and flow of DDP Yoga lower cortisol levels, helping you stay calm under pressure. Science backs it: yoga can reduce stress by 40% and improve mood in just one session.

- Grit Forged in Fire: Every time you hit the mat, you’re training your brain to push past “I can’t.” That’s the kind of mental toughness that translates to crushing deadlines, facing fears, or standing tall when life tries to knock your ass down.

- Own Your Energy: DDP’s mantra, “Own the Day,” isn’t just some little gimmicky catchphrase—it’s a lifestyle. The mindfulness baked into every workout keeps you locked in, present, and ready to dominate whatever comes your way.

3. Flexibility That Makes You Unbreakable And Limber Like A Jungle Cat

You ain’t a machine if you can’t move like one. DDP Yoga’s dynamic stretches and mobility work turn stiff, rusty joints into fluid, powerful tools. This isn’t about touching your toes for Instagram clout—it’s about moving better, living better, and staying injury-free. It was my savior for getting out of that messed up pickle of sciatica I had and gave me my flexibility back.

- Range of Motion on Steroids: Studies show yoga can improve flexibility by up to 35% in 10 weeks. DDP Yoga’s unique approach makes you limber and strong, so you’re not just bending—you’re thriving with intense force.

- Injury-Proof Your Body: By lengthening tight muscles and strengthening weak ones, DDP Yoga fixes imbalances that lead to aches and pains. Pro athletes like AJ Styles and regular Joes alike swear by it for staying in the game.

- Age Is Just a Number: From 20-year-olds to 70+-year-olds, DDP Yoga’s adaptability makes it a lifelong tool. Look at Arthur Boorman, a disabled vet who went from barely walking to sprinting, all thanks to DDP Yoga. That’s the POWER of unbreakable.

4. A Tribe That Fuels Your Fire

DDP Yoga isn’t just a workout—it’s a movement. When you join, you’re not alone. You’re stepping into a global community of warriors who’ve got your back. From online forums to live events, the DDP Yoga tribe is all about accountability, inspiration, and no bullshit support.

- Real Stories, Real Heroes: Check X for #DDPYoga posts—people like @FitDadRising dropping 100 pounds or @WarriorMomma kicking chronic pain to the curb. These aren’t influencers or IG models; they’re real people crushing it.

- The Man, The Legend, DDP Himself: The man’s a walking motivational powerhouse. Follow @RealDDP on X, and you’ll see him hyping up everyone from beginners to super beasts, proving it’s never too late to start.

- A Community That Keeps You On Your Toes: The community holds you accountable. Share your progress, get tips, and watch how fast you level up when you’re surrounded by people who believe in you.

5. It’s Your Life, Amplified

DDP Yoga isn’t about chasing six-pack abs for vanity (though you’ll probably get ‘em). It’s about amplifying every part of your life. Want to be a better parent, partner, or leader? Want to feel unstoppable? This is the fuel.

- Energy That Doesn’t Quit: Users report insane boosts in stamina—think running after kids or powering through a 12-hour workday without crashing.

- Confidence That Roars: When you look better, move better, and feel better, you carry yourself like a god or goddess. That swagger changes how the world sees you.

- A Lifestyle, Not a Phase: DDP Yoga’s nutrition guides and sustainable approach make it a way of life, not a crash diet or fleeting gym membership. You’re building habits that last longer than Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.

Why DDP Yoga Is A Solid Power Move

Look, life’s a battlefield. You’re either rising or falling—there’s no standing still. DDP Yoga is your sword, your shield, your war cry. It’s not about being perfect; it’s about being relentless. It’s about showing up, sweating, and owning every god damn day. Whether you’re battling weight, pain, stress, or just the grind of life, DDP Yoga equips you to win.

- Accessible AF: Workouts range from 10 minutes to an hour, with beginner to advanced levels. No gym, no gear, it's there for the taking.

- Proven by Legends: From NFL players to WWE Icons, the elites trust DDP Yoga to keep them at the top of the mountain. If it works for them, what makes you think it won't for you?

- Life-Changing Stories: X is flooded with posts about DDP Yoga transforming lives—people like @DDPYogaFan who went from 300 pounds to running marathons. That could be YOU.

Stop waiting for “someday.” The time to unleash your inner titan is NOW. Grab a mat, fire up the DDP Yoga app, and start swinging for the fences like Aaron Judge. You don’t need to be fit to start—you just need to start to get fit. DDP built this for bad asses like you, and the only thing standing between you and your best self is the choice to begin.

Check out ddpyoga.com for the full scoop, or hit up @RealDDP on X for a dose of motivation that’ll light a fire under your ass. This ain’t just a workout—it’s a revolution. Join the DDP Yoga tribe, own the day, become the legend you were born to be and feel the BANG!!! Be amazingly awesome.

The 500 Rep Deck of Cards Workout with DopamineO Bands

Hope everyone had a great Independence Day yesterday. For today, we're not just talking any old training method—we’re forging legends. It's time to go into the primal chaos of one of my personal favorite workouts, the 500 Rep Deck Of Cards Dopa Workout. Using the mighty DopamineO Bands and the unpredictable magic of a deck of cards. This isn’t just exercise; this is a battle, a game, a test of your soul’s fire. Are you ready to stretch your limits, unleash that internal beast and become a force of nature? Let’s tear into this with the ferocity of a lion and the clarity of an eagle. Are you ready?...I said ARE YOU READY??? For the thousands who read this blog every month and the many followers on social media....LETS GET READY TO TRRRRAAAAIIINNN!!! (Fun DX impression, just for kicks)

Why 500 Reps, DopamineO Bands, and a Deck of Cards?

Fitness isn’t about monotony—it’s about fun, igniting the fire and unleashing relentless fury. The 500-rep workout is a gauntlet thrown down by the gods of strength and endurance. It’s not for the faint of heart, but for those who dare to rise up with the hunger to conquer mountains. Pair that with DopamineO Bands, those 16-foot silicone titans of resistance (0–230 lbs of pure fury, latex-free, odorless, and damn near indestructible), and you’ve got a portable Colosseum ready to challenge you anywhere—your backyard, the park, or the crest of a fucking mountain. 

Now, toss in a deck of cards, and you’ve got chaos in the best way possible. Each card is a command, a dare, a chance to push your body and mind to the edge. This isn’t your grandma’s workout (unless your grandma’s a badass wrestler). The deck of cards brings randomness, strategy, and a game-like vibe that keeps your brain engaged and your muscles screaming. It’s conditioning with a twist, and when you pair it with DopamineO Bands, you’re not just building muscle—you’re crafting endurance, technique, heart and learning to expect the unexpected.

Why 500 reps? It sounds arbitrary doesn't it? That's because it’s a number that demands respect (Think Karl Gotch with the Hindu Squats). It’s a milestone that separates the mortals from the immortals. And with DopamineO Bands, inspired by the relentless stamina of elite wrestlers like Khabib (who bought these bands for Daniel Cormier’s academy, by the way!), you’re not just chasing reps—you’re chasing greatness. So, shuffle that deck, strap on your Dopa Band, and let’s make some magic happen. Use my discount code POWERANDMIGHT for 10% off at dopamineo.com and join the revolution!

The Battle Plan: How the Deck of Cards Workout Works

Ok sparky here's the deal: A standard deck of 52 cards is your commander-in-chief. Each suit represents an exercise, each card a rep count, and the DopamineO Band is your weapon of choice. The goal? Crush 500 reps across five brutal exercises, fueled by the elastic fury of the Dopa Band. This is how we roll:

1. Assign Your Exercises:

   -Hearts: Chest Press (explosive power for your upper body)

   -Diamonds: Wave Pulls (dynamic pulling motion to torch your lats and core, like pulling an opponent to the mat).

   -Spades: Uppercut to Squat (a full-body combo that lights up your legs, core, and shoulders with fight-ready intensity).

   -Clubs: Ski Jumps (lateral hops with band resistance to build agility and shred your calves, not to mention quickness).

    -Jokers: Propellers (a spinning, band-resisted move that hits every muscle group)

2. Set the Reps:

   - Number cards (2–10): Perform the number of reps shown (e.g., 5 of hearts = 5 Chest Presses).

   - Ace: 16 reps (Toughness Galore).

   - Jack: 10 reps (Grinding it out).

   - Queen: 10 reps (Keep it going).

   - King: 10 reps (Becoming a legend throughout).

   - Joker: The wild card! Pull a Joker, and you do 50 reps of the Propeller, taking on a new wave of testing your abilities.

3. Game On:

   - Shuffle the deck and anchor your DopamineO Band to a sturdy point (door, tree, or your sheer willpower). Draw one card at a time, perform the reps, and move to the next card. No rest unless you absolutely need it—keep the rhythm relentless, like a Dagestani wrestler chasing victory.

   - Adjust resistance dynamically: Too easy? Step farther from the anchor point. Too hard? Step closer. This is functional fitness at its finest.

   - Keep going until you finish the deck. Track your time, let the speed come naturally.

Why DopamineO Bands Make This Epic

DopamineO Bands aren’t your average resistance bands. These bad boys are one of the GOATs of fitness tools, crafted for those who want to achieve fitness immortality. Here’s why they’re the perfect partner for this 500-rep odyssey:

- Versatility Unmatched: Unlike flimsy loop bands, Dopa Bands conquer every exercise—upper body, lower body, full-body, rehab, or sport-specific drills. They’re the Swiss Army knife of conditioning.

- Low-Impact Glory: No joint-grinding iron here. These bands are gentle yet ferocious, perfect for athletes recovering from injury or anyone seeking longevity without sacrificing intensity.

- Elite Guidance: With your Dopa Band, you get lifetime access to 300+ pro-level training videos—tutorials for wrestling, MMA, boxing, and fitness, crafted by THE masters. Stream them on your phone, tablet, or TV, and let the GOATs guide your ascent

- Built for Immortals: Made of pure silicone, these bands are durable as hell, lasting longer than speargun rubber, according to a Greco-Roman wrestler on Reddit. They’re the tool of choice for elite fight sport athletes worldwide.

- Sport-Specific Mastery: Wrestlers, boxers, and judoka use Dopa Bands to mimic opponents’ resistance, honing technique while building insane stamina. This workout isn’t just about reps—it’s about becoming a relentless machine.

Why This Works: The Science of the Grind

This isn’t just a workout; it’s a top of the line entity in conditioning. The 500 rep structure hammers your endurance, torches calories, and builds functional strength. The deck of cards adds randomness, keeping your brain engaged and preventing plateaus. DopamineO Bands amplify the intensity with dynamic resistance—unlike static weights, they challenge your muscles through the entire range of motion, mimicking real-world movements like wrestling takedowns or boxing combos.

The high-rep lead up approach builds stamina that rivals elite athletes. Think Khabib, outlasting opponents because he trained with tools like these. The bands’ low-impact nature means you can push to muscle failure without wrecking your joints, making it ideal for fighters, fitness enthusiasts, or anyone chasing longevity. Plus, the game-like vibe of the deck keeps you hooked—every card is a challenge, every rep leads to great victory.

Tips to Conquer the 500-Rep Quest

1. Focus on Form: High reps can tempt you to slack, but don’t. Keep your movements crisp, especially with the band’s resistance. Quality over quantity, always. 

2. Breathe With Intent: Exhale on the effort, inhale on the release. This keeps your rhythm and fuels your stamina.

3. Adjust Resistance: Too tough? Step closer to the anchor. Too easy? Step back. The Dopa Band’s dynamic resistance is your secret weapon.

4. Have Fun: This is a game, not a chore. Crank some music, train outside, and let the cards lead the way. I like to put on some good ole metal and feel the jacked surge of fire within when a great solo comes on. (Eruption anyone?)

5. Track Your Time: Aim to finish  a little faster each session. I try to keep it within 25-30 min. Again, let the speed come naturally and feel the flow each time.

6. Mix It Up: Swap exercises to target different muscles. Try Curls, Lunges, or Rows for variety. Check dopamineo.com’s 300+ video library for inspiration.

The Aftermath: What You’ll Gain

Complete this workout, and you’re not just stronger—you’re a force of nature. Your endurance will soar, your muscles will harden, and your mind will be forged in the fires of discipline. You’ll walk taller, move faster, and feel like you can take on the world. This is what DopamineO Bands and the deck-of-cards method do: they turn you into a machine. You will enhance your toughness. But it’s more than physical. This workout is a pact with yourself—a vow to conquer what you were, to rise above to get better, and to chase the most badass version of you. Every rep is a step toward greatness, every card a triumph over doubt.

Join the Legion of Legends

So, what are you waiting for? Grab your DopamineO Band (use code POWERANDMIGHT for 10% off at dopamineo.com), shuffle a deck of cards, and step into the arena. This 500-rep workout is your ticket to a body and mind that rival the gods. Share your journey in the comments, hit me up on X (@PowerandMight), and let me know how you crushed it. Could you keep up with me or best me? Did you add your own twist? Spill it bro. If you do best me, that's awesome and want you to get better, but the main thing is, can you best yourself?

Be amazingly awesome, keep killing it in 2025, and let’s forge a legacy together. Stretch your limits. Unleash the beast. Become a fucking legend. 💪🔥

Unleash the Beast: Why Sledgehammer Training Will Forge You Into a Force of Nature

Time to grab a sledgehammer, step into the arena, and unleash the primal power within. If you’re still messing with cookie-cutter gym routines or chasing “aesthetic” gains with no soul or real purpose, you’re missing the raw, untamed essence of  sledgehammer training. This ain’t just a workout—it’s a rite of passage, a collision of mind, body, and unrelenting force. Let’s go into the very depths as to why swinging a sledgehammer will transform you into a living juggernaut, physically and mentally, and why it’s a GOAT tool for those who dare to dominate.

A Weapon of Strength and Will

Have this planted into your brain: You, a sledgehammer, and a tire (preferably a half tire) begging for punishment. No bullshit, no mirrors, no distractions—just you and the hammer, locked in a battle to forge something unstoppable, maybe even unbeatable. Sledgehammer training isn’t about looking like a pretty boy; it’s about building real world functional strength, explosive power, and a mindset that laughs in the face of most routines. Every swing is a declaration of war that turns mere mortals into LEGENDS.

This ancient tool, once wielded by laborers and warriors, is now your key to unlocking a physique that’s as powerful as it is resilient. Whether you’re smashing a tire, driving posts, or just swinging for the sheer thrill of it, sledgehammer training delivers results that no dumbbell or treadmill can touch. Let’s see what the benefits that make this a top tier training for those who live for the grind.

Benefit #1: Total-Body Power That Hits Like a Freight Train

Sledgehammer training is a full-body assault. Every swing engages your core, legs, back, shoulders and arms in a symphony of destruction. Unlike isolation exercises that only hit one area or less than 3, the sledgehammer demands coordination and explosive force. You’re not just lifting—you’re generating power from the ground up, transferring energy through your hips, core, and upper body to deliver a crushing blow.

Core Strength: Your abs and obliques go into overdrive to stabilize and rotate your torso with each swing. Fuck crunches—this is how you build a midsection that can take a punch and dish one out.

Grip and Forearm Gains: Holding and controlling a heavy sledgehammer forges grip strength that makes DEADLIFTS and possibly PULL-UPS feel like another Tuesday. Your forearms will look like they were carved from stone.

Leg Drive: Each swing starts with a powerful push from your legs, building explosive strength in your quads, hamstrings, and glutes. It’s like a squat, but with a purpose along with generating spikes in TESTOSTERONE!!!

Real-world application? Sledgehammer training builds the kind of power you need to dominate in sports, manual labor, or any situation where raw strength is king. Wrestlers, fighters, and strongmen have known this for years—now it’s time to take your place among them.

Benefit #2: Cardio That Doesn’t Suck

Time To Face Reality: Running on a treadmill feels like a hamster wheel for your soul. Sledgehammer training, on the other hand, is cardio with glorious purpose. A few minutes of high-intensity swings will have your heart pounding, lungs burning, and sweat pouring. It’s HIIT (High-Intensity Interval Training) on steroids, torching calories and boosting your cardiovascular endurance without the monotony.

Studies show that high-intensity, full-body movements like sledgehammer swings can burn up to 400-700 calories per hour, depending on intensity, while improving your VO2 max—your body’s ability to use oxygen efficiently. Plus, it’s fun as hell. You’re not just exercising; you’re unleashing fury on a tire. That’s the kind of cardio that builds men, not drones. 

Benefit #3: Mental Fortitude Forged in Fire

Sledgehammer training isn’t just physical—it’s a mental powerhouse. Every swing DEMANDS focus, intent, and grit. You can’t phone it in. You can’t half-ass a swing. Each strike forces you to confront your limits and push past them with a vengeance. Over time, this builds a mindset that thrives under pressure.

In a world full of distractions and other crazy shit, sledgehammer training is a reminder to show up and dominate. It’s you against the hammer, the tire, and your own doubts. When you walk away from a session, drenched in sweat and buzzing with endorphins, you’re not just stronger—you’re unbreakable.

Benefit #4: Versatility and Accessibility

You don’t need a fancy gym or a $5,000 machine to train like a beast. All you need is a sledgehammer (8-20 lbs, maybe even more depending on your level), a tire (free from any tire shop) or have one cut and get a solid quality from Stronger Grip, and some open space. No tire? Swing it like a Mace. No space? Adapt and overcome.

Sledgehammer training is also endlessly versatile. You can:

- Mix up grips (overhand, underhand, or choke up) to hit different muscles.

- Vary tempo (slow and heavy or fast and explosive) for strength or conditioning. (Like the Stronger Grip Tactical Sledgehammer)

- Combine swings with bodyweight moves like push-ups or burpees for a bad ass hormone boosting circuit.

- Train unilaterally (one-handed swings) to fix imbalances and build coordination.

It’s a workout you can take anywhere, from your backyard to a park. Getting the results that will make you proud.

Benefit #5: Injury Prevention and Joint Health

Unlike repetitive, high-impact exercises like distance running, sledgehammer training is surprisingly joint-friendly when done with proper form. The tire absorbs the impact, sparing your wrists, elbows, and shoulders from the jarring stress of extremely heavy barbell lifts. The dynamic, multi-planar movements also improve mobility and stability, reducing your risk of injury in other activities.

Not to mention, the constant engagement of your core and stabilizing muscles builds a body that’s not just strong but resilient. You’re not training for the gym—you’re training for life.

How to Get Started: Unleash Your Inner God or Goddess

Ready to swing? Here’s how to dive into sledgehammer training like a true warrior:

1. Get Your Gear:

    Pick a sledgehammer (start with 8-12 lbs if you’re new, 16-20 lbs if you’re seasoned, anything higher and with control, you're a very ambitious beast).

    Find a tire (check local tire shops or junkyards—they’re often free). If you want to get a half tire that is of fine quality, check this out.

   Optional: Gloves to protect your hands, though calluses are a badge of honor. 

2. Master the Basics:

   Stance: Feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, core braced. If you feel more comfortable and stable with a bit of a wide stance, use it but be careful. I use a wider stance but be sure to have solid posture.

   Grip: Dominant hand near the end of the handle, non-dominant hand closer to the head for control.

   Swing: Drive through your legs, rotate your hips, and bring the hammer down with force. Follow through like you’re splitting the earth.

   Form Tip: Keep your back straight as best as you can and let your legs and core do the work. Don’t hunch or over-rely on your arms. If it's a heavier hammer (25-30+) use good technique when lifting to solidify the thrust down.

3. Progress: Increase hammer weight, swing volume, or circuit intensity as you get stronger. Track your swings and aim to beat some numbers.

Why Sledgehammer Training is one of the Ultimate Power Moves

In a world obsessed with shortcuts and flashy trends, sledgehammer training is a return to what’s real. It’s raw, it’s primal, and it’s effective. You’re not just building muscle—you’re forging strength, resilience, and a mindset that carries over into every challenge life throws at you.

So, grab that hammer, find a tire, and start swinging. Let every strike be a reminder that you’re not here to blend in—you’re here to dominate. The world doesn’t reward the timid. It bows to those who wield the hammer with unrelenting might.

Unleash the beast. Swing hard. Live harder. Be amazingly awesome

Note: Always consult a professional before starting a new training regimen, especially if you have pre-existing injuries. Train smart, train hard.

In the beginning, there was weakness—mortals toiling with heavy iron, tethered to gyms, bound by the shackles of space and time. Then, in a secret room on Mount Olympus, came DopamineO Bands, crafted by the hands of modern alchemists at DopamineO Inc. These are not your flimsy, snapping bands from the dollar bin. No fucking way, these are 16 feet of pure silicone fury, latex-free, odorless, and nigh-indestructible, with a resistance range of 0–230 lbs (0–104 kg).  

Available in five divine levels—from the feather-light Fly for young warriors to the Heavy, a beast tamed only by the mightiest of athletes—these bands are a portable Colosseum, letting you ravage and tear apart weakness of the body anywhere: your home, the forest, or the mountain’s crest. With each band comes lifetime access to 500+ pro-level training videos, a sacred tome of drills for wrestling, MMA, boxing, fitness, and beyond. This is no mere tool; it’s a system, a way of life for those who hunger for dominance.  

II. The First Boon: Strength Forged in Fire

By Thor’s hammer, the first gift of DopamineO Bands is strength—the kind that shatters stone and humbles giants! These bands mimic the resistance of living foes, making every rep a battle. Whether you’re a wrestler seeking to crush your rival in a clinch or a mortal aiming to carve a physique worthy of statues, DopamineO Bands deliver.  

wrestlers and MMA fighters Simulate takedowns, throws, and clinches with bands anchored to the earth, building explosive power and grip strength that makes opponents quiver. Khabib Nurmagomedov himself wields these bands daily, a testament to their might!  

Full-body dominance: From squats to presses to rows, these bands train every muscle with variable resistance, forcing your body to adapt and grow stronger at every angle.  

Low-impact glory: Unlike the iron that may grind joints to dust, DopamineO bands are gentle yet ferocious, perfect for athletes or everyday folks recovering from injury or seeking longevity.  

A Reddit bard, a Greco-Roman wrestler of 10 years, sang thus: “DopamineO Bands are the single most essential tool for conditioning. They allow drills, stretches, and partner-like exercises without a partner. They’re durable, lasting longer than speargun rubber!”  

III. The Second Boon: Unyielding Endurance and Technique

Strength alone is but a spark; endurance is the wildfire that consumes all! DopamineO Bands forge endurance and technique, turning you into a relentless machine.  

Sport-specific mastery: Wrestlers, boxers, and judoka use Dopa Bands to hone their craft. Practice sprawls, shots, and shadowboxing with resistance that mimics a foe, sharpening your technique while building insane stamina.  

Cardio of the gods: High-intensity circuits with Dopa Bands torch calories and forge a heart of iron, letting you outlast any mortal in the arena. 

Example: Pick 5 Exercises, do 10-20 each and repeat the circuit with little to no rest until you've completed 10 Rounds (minimum) 

Grip of Herculean Proportions: Grapplers, rejoice! The bands’ unique design strengthens your grip, making your hands as unyielding as the jaws of Fenrir. A Trustpilot warrior proclaimed, “My grip strength and endurance soared after four weeks of Dopa Band training!”  

IIIIII. The Third Boon: Freedom to Conquer Anywhere

The gods laugh at those chained to gyms, for the true essence is out there in other aspects of the world! DopamineO Bands grant freedom, a portable arsenal you can wield in any realm.  

Train anywhere: At 16 feet long, Dopa Bands anchor to trees, doors, or walls, transforming any space into a battlefield. No gym? No problem!  

Global conquest: With worldwide shipping (2-day delivery in the US/UK, 2–7 days elsewhere), DopamineO ensures no god or goddess is left unarmed.  

Compact might: Weighing mere ounces, these bands fit in a bag, ready to unleash hell on your muscles whether you’re in a hotel, a forest, or a desert.

A Trustpilot champion roared, “I ordered the blue DopamineO kit for multi-planar training. It’s perfect for travel and dynamic movement!”  

IV. The Fourth Boon: A Pantheon of Durability and Safety

Weak tools crumble under pressure, but DopamineO Bands are forged for eternity.  

Unbreakable silicone: Made from a hypoallergenic, FDA-approved silicone compound, these bands resist heat, water, and UV rays. They’re odorless and gentle on skin, unlike the cursed latex that snaps and smells like death walking into Hades.  

Child-safe: Even young warriors can wield them, with parental oversight, for the material is LFGB-approved and safe.  

Warranty of the gods: A 1-year full warranty ensures any band that dares to falter is replaced free of charge. Though built for a lifetime, DopamineO stands by its craft.  

Yet, heed this warning: Willpower Bands claim silicone is inferior, lacking the “snap” of natural rubber. But DopamineO’s unique formula defies such slander, with 600% stretch capacity (300% practical) and a resistance curve that grows fiercer as you pull. Wrestlers like David Taylor swear by their power!  

V. The Fifth Boon: Wisdom of the Ancients, Free for All

As they say, Knowledge is Power and it's the spark that ignites victory, and DopamineO Bands come with a sacred library of over 500 training videos.  

Elite guidance: Learn from the GOATs—tutorials for wrestling, MMA, judo, boxing, and fitness, crafted by masters. Khabib himself bought Dopa Bands for DC’s academy!  

Free for life: Purchase a band, and this wisdom is yours forever—no subscriptions, no fees. Stream on phone, tablet, or TV, and ascend to greatness.  

Versatile drills: From warm-ups to rehab to brutal circuits, the videos cover every path to glory. A Trustpilot sage declared, “The videos alone are worth the price!”  

VI. Why DopamineO Bands Is Highly Ranked Among The Elite?

Why choose DopamineO Bands over the countless pretenders? Because they are more than a tool—they are a legacy.  

Versatility unmatched: Unlike loop bands or tubing, Dopa Bands conquer all exercises—upper body, lower body, full-body, rehab, or sport-specific.  

Endorsed by legends: From Khabib to David Taylor, the greatest warriors of our age wield Dopa Bands. Will you join their ranks?  

Risk-free quest: With a 30-day return policy, 2-day US/UK delivery, and a 1-year warranty, your journey is protected.  

But beware the false prophets! Cheap bands from big name sites and companies, their rubber lack the durability, elasticity, and guidance of DopamineO. They snap like twigs, they smell Freddy Kruger's burnt ass and they fail worse than the Denver Broncos in the 1990 Super Bowl. Only Dopa Bands deliver lifetime durability and limitless functionality.  

VII. The Final Charge: Seize Your Destiny

Listen up, the hour is nigh! Will you cower in the shadows, tethered to excuses, or will you seize the DopamineO Bands and carve your name into the annals of greatness? These bands are your hammer, your shield, your path to immortality.  

For the wrestler: Master the mats with grip, core, and stamina that terrify foes.  

For the fighter: Forge arms of steel and technique that dominate the octagon.  

For the mortal: Build a body worthy of Olympus, anywhere, anytime.

Craftsmanship And Raw Power: Stronger Grip's Strength Over Metal

Strength and equipment come in many forms, but if you want to see something unique and bad ass, one place shares those common entities with extra flair for serious growth. What you may find, you may not see anywhere else—you'll see things that'll give you that raw, primal power that shakes the earth beneath your feet. You’re not satisfied with cookie-cutter gym gear or flimsy fitness fads. You want tools forged with purpose, built to transform you into a force of nature. That’s where StrongerGrip.com storms into the arena, swinging sledgehammers and shattering limits like a modern-day Thor. This isn’t just a website—it’s a battle cry for those who live to grip, lift, and conquer. strap in you crazy bastards, because we’re diving into the heart of what makes Stronger Grip the ultimate forge for superhuman strength, in the most unapologetic way possible.

The Forge of Legends: What Is Stronger Grip?

StrongerGrip.com, crafted by the metal-wielding maestro Ryan J. Pitts, isn’t your typical run of the mill fitness store. It’s a crucible where iron meets grit, and legends are made. This is the home of custom strength gear—tools designed not just to train but to awaken the beast within all of us. From monstrous sledgehammers to even fucking Jason Vorhees' machete, every piece is a work of functional art, built to push your limits and laugh in the face of “impossible.” Ryan’s creations aren’t just equipment; they’re a philosophy: Grip it. Move it. Own it.

Think of Stronger Grip as the Colosseum of strength training. It’s where warriors go to arm themselves with tools that don’t just survive the grind—they thrive in it. Whether you’re a strongman, a martial artist, or a garage gym gladiator, this is your arsenal. And let me tell you, there’s nothing more satisfying than wrapping your hands around a Stronger Grip tool and feeling like you could rip a mountain in half. Having several pieces made by Ryan, I can attest to this.

The Power of the Grip: Why It Matters

The real deal here—strength starts with your grip. You can have biceps like boulders and quads that crush concrete, but if your hands can’t hold the weight, you’re just a statue waiting to crumble. Stronger Grip gets this on a primal level. Ryan J. Pitts has made it his mission to forge tools that turn your hands into iron vices, capable of bending steel and crushing doubt. 

Take the GripMo, a versatile beast that offers three ways to train your grip, opening the door to countless movements. Plug in a loop, anchor a band, or just choke down on its rugged surface—it’s like having a dojo for your hands. Or how about the BandGrips Handle and BandAnchor? These bad boys turn resistance bands into weapons of mass construction, letting you hammer your forearms, shoulders, and core with relentless intensity. The response from the strength community? “Super positive,” as Ryan himself put it, and that’s no surprise. These tools don’t just build muscle—they build might that even the old timers would be proud of.

And then there’s the Machete from Friday The 13th, used for training like the Indian Clubs, it's a thing of beauty that's so massive it makes Crocodile Dundee’s knife look like a butter spreader. This colossal of a club isn’t just nuts to use; it’s a challenge to your very soul, daring you to pick it up and prove you’re worthy. If you're a classic horror fan, you're in for a nightmarish good time.

 Stronger Grip embodies that spirit for the iron and those who go outside the norm. Every piece of gear is a lesson in resilience, a reminder that strength isn’t just physical—it’s mental, emotional, and downright spiritual. Ryan J. Pitts isn’t just a craftsman; he’s a strength alchemist. His blog posts on StrongerGrip.com are like war chants for the iron-hearted. The man writes with the passion of a Viking poet, and you can feel the fire in every word. It’s not about selling gear—it’s about inspiring you to become your own legend.

This is where Stronger Grip stands apart from the sterile, mass-produced fitness world. It’s in your face. It’s real. It’s for those who roar at challenges and fight against mediocrity. You don’t just buy from Stronger Grip—you join a movement that has been going on for nearly 2 decades.

Tools That Forge Of The Norse Gods

Want To Talk About Gear? Stronger Grip’s lineup is a hall of fame for strength nerds. Here’s a taste of what you’ll find:

Epic Sledgehammer: A Hammer so colossal it demands respect. Perfect for strongmen and women who want to test their mettle.  

Barrel Clubs: A set of grip-training masterpieces with endless versatility. Your forearms will thank you—or curse you. Either way, they’ll grow. Remember the Club challenges by wrestler the Iron Sheik? These bring back a classic with a new perspective on building power with fierce animalistic strength. 

Burger Grips With Hooks: Turn pulldown machines into a nasty upper body strength assault. Simple, brutal, effective. Or hook them to regular barbells and get a unique look at what grip strength is all about. 3.5 & 4 inch Grips available. 

Barbarian Army Strength Sword: Swing this, and you’re not just training—you’re channeling ancient warriors.  

Custom Creations: From unique trophies to functional metal art, Ryan’s custom work is as badass as it gets.  

Each piece is handcrafted, not churned out by some soulless factory. That’s the Stronger Grip difference—every tool has a story, a purpose, and a challenge embedded in its steel.

Join us Strength Seekers

Stronger Grip isn’t just a store; it’s a call to arms. It’s for those who see heavy ass hammers and the like and think, “Challenge accepted.” It’s for the misfits who train in the rain, who grip harder when the world says let go, who laugh when the bar bends. Ryan J. Pitts and StrongerGrip.com are your allies in this quest for functional strength that would make even the gods have their jaws drop.

Stronger Grip isn’t for everyone. It’s not for the faint of heart or the casual gym-goer who’s happy with a 20-pound dumbbell and a smoothie. It’s for those who crave more, who live for the moment when their hands grip iron and their spirit soars into the universe. It’s for the strength seekers, the power chasers, the might makers.

So, what are you waiting for? Head to Stronger Grip, grab a tool that screams “epic,” and start forging your own legend. Don't just be amazingly awesome, be epically awesome.

Why Weight Vest Walking Is Your Path To Great Strength

Good morning everyone. If you’re looking to forge a strong body and mind with such simplicity it's not even funny, it’s time to strap on a weight vest and walk. Yeah, you read that right—walking, that primal movement we’ve been doing since we were kids, just got a hardcore upgrade. Weight vest walking isn’t just exercise; it’s a decision to challenge the norm. It’s you, defying gravity, building strength, and carving out a version of yourself that’s unbreakable. Here’s why this bad ass method deserves a spot in your dose of developing incredible power.

1. Strength That Sneaks Up on You

When you sling that vest over your shoulders, every step becomes a rep. Your legs, core, and back are forced to level up, carrying that extra load with every stride. It’s like turning a casual stroll into a full-body resistance workout. Studies show that walking with added weight can increase muscle activation by up to 20% compared to regular walking. That’s your quads, glutes, and calves getting chiseled while you’re just… walking. No gym, no problem—just pure, functional strength forged in the real world.

2. Burn Fat Like a Furnace

Want to torch calories without sprinting until your lungs scream? Weight vest walking cranks up the intensity without the joint-pounding impact of running. Although Sprinting is much better than jogging. Research from the Journal of Exercise Physiology found that adding 15% of your body weight can boost a caloric burn by 12-15% per session. That’s hundreds of extra calories smoked while you’re out there owning the pavement. It’s low-impact, sustainable, and turns your regular walk into a fat-incinerating mission.

3. Mental Grit Forged in Every Step

Time to get real (when isn't it?): Carrying extra weight isn’t just physical—it’s a mental crucible. Each step with that vest hugging your frame is a choice to push past comfort. You’re not just walking; you’re building discipline, resilience, and an iron will. When life throws challenges your way, you’ll already know what it feels like to carry the load and keep moving. That’s the kind of mindset that separates the mighty from the masses.

4. Bulletproof Your Bones and Joints

Think walking is “too easy”? Add a vest and watch it become a bone-strengthening beast. Weight-bearing exercise like this stimulates bone growth and increases density, reducing your risk of osteoporosis as you age. A 2023 study in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research showed that weighted walking improved joint stability and reduced injury risk in active adults. You’re not just getting stronger—you’re building a foundation that’ll carry you through decades.

5. Anywhere, Anytime

Here’s the beauty (Or the hell): you don’t need a fancy gym or a personal trainer. Strap on that vest and hit the streets, the park, or even your backyard. Rain, shine, city, or trail—it doesn’t matter. Weight vest walking meets you where you are. Start with 10 pounds, level up to 40-50, and watch your body adapt like a machine. It’s versatile, scalable, and doesn’t care about your schedule or budget.

How to Start?

Grab a vest—start light, maybe 10-20 pounds. Walk 20-30 minutes, 3-4 times a week. Focus on posture: shoulders back, core tight, strides strong. Gradually increase weight or time as you get stronger. Listen to your body, but don’t baby it. You’re not here to coddle your training—you’re here to crush it. I like putting on the 40 lber and going for about 30-45 min. door to door. 

The Call to Greatness

This isn’t just about fitness; it’s about claiming your power. Weight vest walking is your chance to move with purpose, to feel the weight of your ambition, and to build a body and mind that refuses to give in. So, strap it on. Step out. Own every step like the beast you are. The world isn't waiting—go show what you’re made of and remember that every small hint of progress always leads to the bigger picture. 💪  

Stay mighty, stay relentless and be fucking amazingly awesome.

Ready To Go Beast Mode With Movement 20XX?

It’s time to break free from the cookie-cutter gym grind and tap into something primal, something real. If you’re tired of soulless reps and chasing numbers that don’t mean jack shit for how you move in the real world, then Vahva Fitness’ Movement 20XX might just be the spark to ignite your inner beast. This ain’t your typical fitness program—it’s a philosophy, a lifestyle, and a damn powerful way to reclaim your body’s potential. Let’s really get into what makes this course a game-changer, straight-up.

What the bloody Hell Is Movement 20XX?

Movement 20XX, crafted by the Finnish fitness rebels Samuli Jyrkinen and Eero Westerberg, is Vahva Fitness’ flagship program. It’s a bodyweight-based system that blends strength, mobility, and flow into a holistic approach to fitness. Forget the bro-science of “lift heavy or go home.” This course is about moving like an animal, flowing like a martial artist, and building a body that’s as functional as it is jacked. Drawing from martial arts, gymnastics, calisthenics, and even a pinch of yoga, it’s designed to make you strong, limber, and ready for anything life throws at you.

The program’s core philosophy? Your body is built to move in a million dynamic ways, not just to pump iron in a straight line. It’s about mastering lizard crawls, animal flows, pull-ups, and movement patterns that make you feel like a predator, not a robot assassin. With a 6-month structured plan, HD video tutorials, and lifetime access, Movement 20XX is your blueprint to becoming a versatile, injury-resistant badass.

Why Movement 20XX Hits Different

Here’s the raw deal guys: most fitness programs are obsessed with making you work that "no pain, no gain" bullshit and "ground and pound" you into the earth instead of making you better. Movement 20XX flips that script. It’s not about redlining your body into a sore, broken mess. Instead, it’s about precision, control, and progression. Here’s why it’s worth your time:

Holistic Gains, No BS: This program hits strength, mobility, and flow in one insane package. You’re not just building biceps; you’re improving joint health, coordination, and agility. Lizard crawls and animal flows torch your core and make every joint in your body bulletproof. Many users of this program, who ditched kettlebells and other implements after battling lower back pain, reported feeling “amazing” after six months—stronger, more mobile and pain-free.

Going Beyond The Gym: You don’t need a fancy gym or equipment. A small room and maybe a pull-up bar are enough to dominate these workouts. Perfect for those of us who’d rather train in a park or at home than deal with crowded gym bros. The workouts are short—15 to 30 minutes—but don’t let that fool you. They’ll humble you, they've hit me hard at times and I still felt like a million bucks.

Cub to Beast: Whether you’re a couch potato or a seasoned athlete, Movement 20XX scales to your level. Beginners get clear coaching to nail the basics, while advanced movers can crank up the intensity with harder progressions. Maria, a mom who learned cartwheels for the first time, unlocked moves she never thought possible. That’s the kind of empowerment we’re talking about.

Fun as Hell: Let’s be real—most workouts are so tedious and boring. Not getting that crap here. The animal-inspired flows (think bear crawls, monkey walks, and low-flow rolls) and creative movement patterns keep things fresh. It’s like playing while getting shredded. Users rave about how the workouts “never get dull” and feel like a dance with your own body.

Injury-Proof Your Body: Unlike programs that grind your joints into dust, Movement 20XX prioritizes posture and structural balance. It’s helped a ton of people who had ankle, knee, and hip pain, move pain-free and build muscle. The focus on mobility and proper form means you’re not just chasing gains—you’re building a body that lasts.

The Gritty Details: What You Get

When you sign up for Movement 20XX, you’re not just buying a course—you’re investing in a transformation. Here’s what’s in the package:

Nearly 100 HD Videos: Eero Westerberg himself walks you through every move with crystal-clear demos. No guesswork, just precise instruction on what to do and what not to do.

6-Month Training Plan: Daily workouts and weekly schedules take the thinking out of your training. It’s plug-and-play, with progressions that evolve as you get stronger.

Five Core Elements: The program breaks down into lizard crawls, climbing, squats, static strength, and active flexibility. Each targets different aspects of movement, from explosive power to fluid grace.

Flow Routines: Eleven structured flow routines blend movements into seamless sequences. Think of it as choreography for your inner warrior. Plus, a free expansion library that adds even more flows to keep you progressing and learning.

Lifetime Access: Pay once. The Recommended Package which gives you the Full access to Movement 20XX. Your access never expires All content and bonuses included. 6-month training program plus a Special: Movement MasterClass is under $300. 

If you want to go for the Personalized Experienced which includes all the stuff the Recommended Course has but you also get an additional 3 months of online coaching with Eero Westerberg (Includes a personalized plan, 2 consultation/coaching calls, email support and form check analysis) which is at under $2500

Compare that to $60-$100 per session for a personal trainer who might not even get movement training.

Money-Back Guarantee: Vahva stands behind their product with a 30-day, no-questions-asked refund policy. That’s confidence in their system.

The Real Talk: Pros and Cons

No program is going to be perfect, so let’s cut through the hype.

Pros:

Transformative: Users report insane improvements in mobility, strength, and confidence. One 44-year-old dude said he felt better than he did in his 20s.

Versatile: Works for all levels, from newbies to pros like UFC champ Jiri Prochazka, who trained with Eero.

No Equipment Needed: Ideal for home workouts or travel.

Fun and Engaging: The creative flows make training feel like an adventure, not a chore.

Holistic Approach: Combines physical and mental fitness, inspired by Finnish grit and Eastern movement practices.

Cons:

Pricey Upfront: Paying 4 digits, it’s a quite an investment compared to apps like Cali Move ($60). Is it worth it? If you value true quality and lifetime access, hell yeah. But it’s not cheap.

No Native App: The platform is mobile-friendly, but it’s not a dedicated app, which can feel clunky on phones.

No Progress Tracking: You’ll need to track your own gains, as there’s no built-in system for logging progress.

Not for Everyone: If you’re all about bodybuilding or maxing out deadlifts, this might feel too “flowy” for your taste. It’s for those who want to move better, not just look bigger.

Who’s This For?

Movement 20XX is for anyone who wants to own their body, not just sculpt it. It’s for:

Fitness enthusiasts bored with repetitive gym routines.

People recovering from injuries who need a low-impact, joint-friendly program.

Athletes looking to boost performance in sports, martial arts, or dance.

Beginners who want a structured, scalable way to get fit without a gym.

Warriors who crave a challenge that’s as mental as it is physical.

If you’re the type who wants to flow like a panther, lift like a gorilla, and move without pain, this is your jam.

The Verdict: Is Movement 20XX Worth It?

Fuck yes, it’s worth it—if you’re ready to commit. Movement 20XX isn’t just a workout; it’s a mindset shift. It teaches you to move with purpose, to respect your body’s natural design, and to push your limits without breaking yourself. The price tag might sting, but with lifetime access and a money-back guarantee, it’s a low-risk bet on a stronger, more capable you. Users like Annie, at 65, gained mobility they never thought possible. That’s the kind of impact we’re talking about.

This program isn’t about chasing six-packs or ego-lifting. It’s about becoming a functional, confident, and resilient human. If you’re ready to ditch the treadmill and unleash your inner beast, Movement 20XX is your ticket. Check it out at and start moving like you were born to.

Now, go dominate. 💪

Stay strong, stay mighty and be amazingly awesome.
