I have two new articles this month already out.  One of them is in the latest issue (April '09) of Iron Man magazine - see pic to the left - and the other is at the website www.dragondoor.com.
The Iron Man article is entitled "Total Training" and it deals with full-body workouts for advanced lifters.  Which, despite what many of you "split" advocates might believe, is still the best kind of training that can be performed.
The Dragon Door article is entitled "The Heavy-Light-Medium System for Strength and Power."
Check both of them out.

Metabolic Muscle-Building

  Hybrid Hypertrophy/Conditioning Programs Combining Full-Body Kettlebell Workouts with Multi-Split Bodybuilding Training      A lot of our population, including lifters and bodybuilders, are metabolically compromised.  I’ve seen a number of studies, research papers, and health articles declaring this.  But I don’t need a study or some health expert to explain it to me.  All I have to do is go to the grocery store, a local restaurant, or the local gym (not that I go to a local gym; just saying) to see the obvious right before my eyes.  People are out of shape.  And, despite a push to make America healthy once again, we’re getting even more out of shape.  But it doesn’t have to be this way, and, in fact, despite more and more obese people in this country, there are also a greater number of people who are in fantastic shape.  Even though it’s easy to be out of shape these days, it’s also easier to be in shape.  Ther...

Train Just to Train

  Some Thoughts and Musings on Why I lift and Why You Should Lift (with a Little Help from Budo and Zen)      Over the years that I have been lifting—going on almost 4 decades of training at this point—I have been asked a number of questions.  Most of them are in the “how” category.  How do I gain muscle?  How can I increase my bench press?  How do I get big arms?  And, from primarily women, the most often asked is how do I lose weight?  Or how do I get in shape?  Occasionally, however, I have been asked the why question.  Why do I lift?  Why do I train?  Now, usually, though not always, this is a what question.  As in: what are my goals?  What am I trying to achieve?  Though there are times when the inquiry is deeper .  Especially as I get older, sometimes folks want to know why I still do this lifting thing.  After all, I’m not preparing for powerlifting meets anymore or getting...

The Strength/Power/Mass Protocol

  Get Strong, Massive, and Powerful with this Minimalist Program      Yesterday, I received an email from a reader with a simple question.  He asked what I thought was the best program for building strength and mass—this is one of the questions that I have received fairly regularly over the years.  He said that, after reading the many workout programs that I have on offer here at Integral Strength , he wasn’t sure which one he should select or what kind of program “style” in general was the best, and he said that, to be honest, all of the various programs I write about left him more than a little bit confused.  I told him, first, that there is no one program that reigns supreme over all others.  There are, in fact, a handful of programs that would be great depending on the lifter.  When selecting a program you must take into account several factors, including lifting history, age, job occupation (a construction worker needs a diff...
