Strength coaches have been obsessed with squats and bench press for years, but is strength the only factor to consider when developing an athlete?

Check out this article by ROB PANARIELLO.

How much strength do athletes need?

Lots of coaches focus on one thing, but athletes need a variety of skills.  Their bodies need to be stable, strong and powerful from a variety of positions.

Does a top tier tennis player need the same max strength as a offensive lineman in football?

A great athletic strength and conditioning program has to address a variety of factors.  It will be different for each individual, each sport, as well as, the time of year it is being performed.

In other words, let’s get serious for a few weeks and ask yourself: what can I really accomplish in 25 days?

You could drop 10lbs
You get lose 3 inches off your waist
You could fit back into those jeans
You could perform a certain challenge
You could increase your strength

You could reclaim your confidence

You could do a lot of things…..

Each team has 3 current members and up to 2 new members.

Who do you know that might wanna join us?  Each team must have at least 1 new client, 2 ideally.  Your team will compete against other teams in “The greatest changes in the month of February” – and this is not just about weight loss, it also involves several physical challenges in addition to a written aspect.  Although losing weight or inches can be rewarding, we want to include physical challenges too.

Winners Will Earn Over $2500 in Cash and Prizes

Here’s what’s involved:

***1st Assessment is either Friday Feb 3rd from 5-7pm or Saturday Feb 4th from 8-10am

We will take pictures and measurements (weight, body fat, and inches).

• Weight loss/gain  25pts/1st, 10pts/2nd, 5pts/3rd
• Body fat change 25pts/1st, 10pts/2nd, 5pts/3rd
• Picture 25pts/1st, 10pts/2nd, 5pts/3rd

Everyone will also do the following physical challenges (25pts for 1st place, 10pts for 2nd, 5 for 3rd place)

• Tsunami to end for time
• Power sled drive – Bodyweight for 50’
• Dead Hang for time (guys 2inch bar, girls 1 inch bar)
• 1 minute Versaclimber for distance.

Your story (50pts to winner, 25 2nd place, 10pts to 3rd and 5pts for every story.  
Tell your “Transformation” story:

• What did you accomplish?
• What did you learn about yourself?
• What challenges did you overcome?
• What do you still need to improve?
• Etc, etc

Winners will NOT be judged on straight performance or aesthetic measurements.   (i.e., The leanest person at the end of the month doesn’t automatically win.) 

We WILL be judging by most dramatic improvements.  We want to see people change and improve.  We did this so that the entire contest is a level playing field for everyone involved.

This is gonna be incredible!

You will also have the opportunity to ask questions, encourage others, and build an additional accountability team with other people that are changing too.  As you know, support and accountability are a foundation of IR’s program.

Two weeks before my 7th fight the worst thing that could happen, happened.  I tore my bicep tendon off the bone during a practice session.

I had surgery a few days after and had to get used to the idea of not training for 4-6 months.

This was very depressing considering that Corey, at Innovative Results, had me in the best shape of my life.

Corey kept in touch and made sure that the moment I could train, we would get back to work. He killed my lower body for 3 months until I was able to start using my upper body.

5 months in, I got the clear from my dr to fight and because of Innovative Results I was able to jump back into training with out being out of shape! .

The positive attitude that comes out of the gym is overwhelming and it kept me so motivated even though I could not train my entire body.

Now im back at 100% ready to fight!

These days every fast food restaurant is trying to make their menus more health conscious.

Unfortunately, some choices are still better than others.

Check this out:

Don’t be fooled by names and marketing.

If you want to eat better foods, you have to learn how to read the fine print, check labels and be careful what you eat.   Companies spend millions of dollars figuring out new ways to get us in their restaurants.

Stay alert and keep making good choices!

Sometimes we all just need a little motivation.  Lets face it, simply watching someone do something incredible, rubs off on us a little bit.  People can do incredible things when they put their mind to it and stay consistent.

Here are some of my favorite videos

1.  Sergey Rudnev doing some incredible drills at the IKSFA workshop at IR.

2. Who needs a ton of equipment…not this guy!

3. Don’t try this at home…

Everybody wants to have a tighter behind…a firmer toosh…rock hard glutes or something along those lines.  The problem is, most people have no idea how to train their glutes properly.

Luckily, fellow trainer Bret Contreras, interviewed a few top coaches and got their favorite “glute” exercises.

These guys are some of the best coaches in the world and train some of the world’s best athletes…needless to say, they’ve got some great info to share with ya.
