Two New Articles



















First, in the February '11 issue of Planet Muscle, I have an article entitled "400 Pound Bench and 50" Chest." What makes this one unique is that it's actually a re-print of one that I already had in PM about a year ago. However, they said that it was "hands down, their most popular article of the last two years." Their words, not mine. Pretty cool.

And, in the February '11 issue of Iron Man, I have an article entitled "X-Factor Arm Workouts." I don't usually write "body part training" articles, so if I did, then you know it's going to be different.

    Cool man!! I will check it out! BTW, no doubt about your articles being the best! I always loved your Ironman article where you talked about the truth about over-training - I didn't know nothing about lifting back then

The Big and Strong Series - Overhead Training

The High-Set, Low-Rep Training Manifesto Part 3: Overhead Press Training       Part 1 - Legs and Back       Part 2 - Chest and Lats      It’s now time to turn our attention toward overhead training.  If you want to get as big, strong, and as jacked as humanly possible, you need to place overhead training in your lifting arsenal.  There are several reasons for its importance.  Before we get into those reasons, and then some different workout programs that are great for overhead work, I want to discuss something slightly tangential, but it also needs to be considered, especially if you’re going to get the results you want out of this series.      Assuming you have read parts 1 and 2—if you haven’t, you may be at a slight loss as to exactly what is being chewed over here, so please do so—you will know, by now, that this training methodology of high-sets (sometimes a lot of ...

The Big and Strong Series - Chest and Lats

The High-Set, Low-Rep Training Manifesto Part 2: Training the Chest and Lats      In Part 1, we discussed some different high-set, low-rep training strategies for the legs and back (squats and pulls).  If you have not done so, please read the 1st essay, as it covers some information necessary for understanding the reasoning of the training that will be presented here.  At the very least, read the 1st few paragraphs, even if you’re not interested in leg and back training as much as you are interested in upper body training.  Maybe you just want a big bench press or just want to look good with your shirt off while at the beach—I don’t know.  Even if you are only interested in a good upper body, you will get there much faster, by the way, by training your leg and back muscles.      In future essays, we will also cover arm training and overhead press work.  I have divided the series into these divergent parts for a r...

The Training Secret to End All Training Secrets

     I write a lot about lifting because I think a lot about lifting.  I am a writer after all.  Sometimes I even write about writing.  When you’re a writer, that’s what you do.  You write.  Anyway, I was thinking earlier about why I write about lifting and why in the world I continue to write about it, even when I’ve penned around 800 articles at this point, but who’s counting?  No one but me.      I think I’ve written more articles, essays, and musings this past year than I have in any other year of my life.  That’s saying something since I’ve been writing training articles since 1993, when I sold my first articles to IronMan magazine and MuscleMag International .  Earlier this year, at some point, I remember briefly thinking something along the lines of, “What if I run out of ideas to write about?  Maybe I should slow this thing down.”  But then I realized that it’s not possible....
