Giving Away the House!

Hey guys and gals. I need your help with something. I have created two training programs that work "like a charm" but I want more feedback on them. So if you could:

1. Go to my forum HERE
2. Register yourself for access. Chill-ax, your info is safe. I have no intentions of spamming you and it is required so you can give me feedback on the training.
3. Download either Hydra Training System or Firestarter.
4. Start the program and keep me informed on how well or how not so well it is working for you.

I created the Hydra Training System two and a half years ago. It was created for those looking for serious amounts of strength endurance. The side effects are the usual:
- fat loss
- increase in strength
- decrease chatting on the cellphone while at the gym

This program was first tested on myself,a few of my athletes, who were in need of higher threshold of endurance and the mental strength to push through the "burn"; and a few clients with morbid ideas of training. We all gained kick ass results from the testing phase and when I put the program out to the public.... generally folks loved it. The program is named Hydra Training System because ..... because its a cool name. It is very much a straight forward "linear" type of training model. Time tested and ready for use.



HYDRA TRAINING SYSTEM

The second one named Firestarter was created to eliminate excuses of why a person can not train. The excuses typically revolve around time and disliking gym environments. I first tested this out with an online gaming community. Very mixed reviews for those who commented on the training. So, I worked out the kinks and created the improved version that solved all the problems. Many people still use this system because it does not get any easier and you do get decent results. No excuse training if you are interested.


FIRE STARTER

There you have it my two training systems ready for you. Give one of them a shot and let me know how it works for you.

Mucho Gracias in advance

Fried the Back of My Legs

Last Monday I tinkered around with the notion of using a T-Bar to work the entire back through to the hamstrings. Personally, I'm really not so keen on the t-bar or any constraining piece of equipment. However I decided to throw the exercise in to my Monday routine. The result was my legs and side area of my hips (gluteus medius and minimus most likely) were totally obliterated. It did not take long for the effects to be felt. The next day I was a guy who walked around like C3PO and cringed at the idea of sitting down. The only problem is today is fucking Saturday and I am just healing up enough to get back into a decent routine!

I am quite happy I performed this hybrid exercise on the T-Bar, but quite upset that it diminished my legs to wobbly weak god-fearing limbs. I don't think I would try it again quite yet, but I will sometime when I am ready to put my legs back to the test.

In case you wanted to try it here it is:

Ty-Bar Hybrid

1. Load up a T-Bar with 80% of your guesstimated max.
2. Straddle the t-bar and lift it. MAKE SURE YOU ARE ABLE TO KEEP YOUR LOW BACK ARCHED. If not don't do it.
3. Your feet should be in a dorsiflexion position (toes are facing up and heels down - think opposite of being on the balls of your feet). You may need to grab a few small plates or a small board to place your toes on if the t-bar does not allow for dorsiflexion. Knees should be slightly bent.
4. Keep the body very tight and "white knuckle" the grip. This point you should be standing tall with your "war face" on.
5. Hinge your upper body downwards through your hips. Do not allow any movement except the hips hinging.
6. Using your arms and concentrating on squeezing the shoulder blades together, bring the weight up towards your chest.
7. Now bend the knees more and hinge the hips back as far as possible. Hold for 1-2 seconds.
8. Straighten your arms and return to the standing position.
9. Repeat the sequence and get ready for a shock to the hammies.
