Do you know exactly what will happen tomorrow? Sorry, I don’t mean to get all deep on you right before St. Patrick’s Day celebrations kick off, but I just wanted to talk a little about the unexpected before we kick this weekend off right… This past weekend was supposed to be awesome. It was supposed...Read More
Hey guys and gals! It’s been a bit too long since we’ve done a “Heard of this?” segment, so allow me to break the silence! To make it up to you I’ve got TWO exercises for you today… Let’s start with a unique exercise, the Sandbag Glute Bridge with Inverted Row Combo. This kind of...Read More
Supreme Strength Seminar Hello world! I wanted to make sure that you all know about Todd and John Gaglione’s Supreme Strength seminar taking place in Long Island, NY on March 31st. I was lucky to be a guinea pig for this program, and TRUST me- it works! I was able to maintain the program while...Read More
It’s Wednesday, and I know you’re probably dragging… sucks for you! I kid, I kid… But seriously, as Todd talks about in his new book, “The Pull-Up Manifesto,” challenges can be a great tool to break away from boredom. So I propose a challenge! (Who’d-a-thunk-it??) Enter the Dragon Flag Challenge: It’s true, these guys are rarely...Read More
Hello world! It’s Chris and I’m back again with another edition of “Heard of this?” We finally got bumpers at the new facility (thanks to Sorinex for the AMAZING prices, and to my client Lindsey for finding them!), so I figured, what better to do than finish off our lift the other day with some...Read More
Back again with another edition of “Heard of this?” This time around I’ve got a pretty cool core stability combo for you! The first exercise is a plank rope row. We have the rope wrapped around the base of one of our dumbbell racks, but you can also hook it up to a sled or...Read More
Hiiiiiiiiii! Sorry, I got really excited there- sorry about that! So it has been a killer week at Beyond Strength Performance. The blog has been on fire with posts, and I wasn’t sure if I was ever going to get my turn. I received too many emails to even count over the last few days…...Read More
Merry belated Christmas everyone! I don’t know about you, but I just had an all-around amazing holiday weekend. For part of the weekend I went to Newburgh, NY (right near West Point) to visit my 94-year-young grandmother, “Granny” Cornish. I don’t get to see her as often as I’d like to, and let me tell...Read More
I had the opportunity to meet an amazing group of individuals this past weekend- a large group of Reconnaissance Marines. They were in town to support a fellow Marine, Sean Reed, who was making his amateur debut in mixed martial arts. Little did I know, this would turn into something MUCH bigger. Let me back...Read More
Hello world! I’m back again with another edition of “Heard of this?”… this time around I’m going to  shed some light on a commonly performed exercise, only with a slight twist involved. The barbell rollout is a pretty simple exercise, and most often it is performed with a plate on each side of the bar...Read More
Last week Todd unveiled a possible new feature for our blog in 2012, “Awesome Research Thursdays.” Your feedback has been great and we are happy to say it will be a part of the blog moving forward! This week I wanted to unveil another possible feature for 2012, “Heard of This?” I will be taking...Read More
The grand opening has come and gone- I am so excited about everything. I’m excited to be back writing, filming, and sharing some of what I love to do with all of you… In this post I want to talk about medicine ball throws. When do you write them into the session? How many reps? ...Read More
You may (or may not) have noticed my absence from the blog lately. I would hope that you did since my writing is so outstanding, groundbreaking, and full of awesomeness. What? No, no- Todd wrote that post… that one too. Okay, so maybe consistency with writing isn’t my cup of tea, but this post is...Read More
So this is a bit overdo (considering in was announced on Monday), but a big (HUGE) congratulations goes out to Dustin Pague on making this season’s “The Ultimate Fighter 14” on Spike TV. You may remember my post about him trying out quite a few months back. If not, check out the link and watch...Read More
This weekend Todd and I attended Joe Hashey’s program design seminar at his gym, Synergy Athletics in Endwell, NY- and wow! First off, I want to start by saying that Joe is a good dude… Have you ever had that teacher that really connects with the students in a fun manner, meeting them at their...Read More
