2nd50strong

Deloading is an important art of your training, if you do it right. Listen in to find out how………

Body weight exercises are not the best way to strength train, especially if you're over 50. Listen in to hear why……………

I'm still trying to figure YouTube out, and I have no idea why my wife can't find any of my videos.

Just spent time with my in-laws in Connecticut and ate like total crap. It tasted amazing, but I feel horrible. Do most people just live like this?…….

As men we tend to not follow good advice. I did exactly that, and here's what happened……..

I went hiking and camping all last week. I even hung out at the beach with my family. I had a hard time finding dads that were in shape and physically playing with their kids. Why is this?

The amazing feeling of the sense of accomplishment, when doing something physically or emotionally hard, is what drives us to keep going…………..

The physical and medical consequences of not strength training are bad enough, but it also causes financial devastation. Listen in on how they're ready to take every penny you have if you can't physically take care of yourself……..

Yes, ultimately we will loose the battle of aging, but isn't our life worth fighting back?

There's no way I'm gong to be better than the other people making YouTube videos in weight training. So my only other option is to be different………

I've been taking a YouTube class and finally made my first real YouTube video. Of course it was harder than I thought……..

I'm all in with the Olympic lifts right now, but I'm also starting to experiment with the Prowess portion to complete 2nd50strong program. Listen in to hear what Prowess will be about………..

I am absolutely confused why men, who are fat and completely out of shape, are walking around acting like they're stone cold killers. Can I break through their self delusion and get them to Strength train?

I'm learning that to be noticed, I have to be different. Join me as I figure out how to stand out in the crowd…….

When we put massive action into a new project, the results never happen as fast as we want. We have to accept this slow start, or we quit and get no start, which totally derails us.

Time is money, but I'm learning that the opposite is also true, and even more important.

If we want to succeed in less time, we need a coach when learning new things. I'm shocked at what I didn't know before taking this course……

My YouTube videos are so bad, so I'm paying to take a course on making them better.......

Olympic weightlifting is really technical. I'm learning to do the snatch, and I'm loving the process......

We've all been tricked into thinking something is our friend, when actually it's our biggest enemy..........

As men in our 2nd 50 years there is one thing above all else that changes our lives for the better. Listen in to find out what it is.....

As I'm learning to tell stories, I've needed to put into words what exercise actually is. This is what I've came up with...............

I've got a lot of real life stories to tell. But I never realized there's a right and wrong way to tell them. Listen in as I figure this out..........

I've been documenting my journey for a while, but what do I do next?......

Apparently, if I try to talk to everybody, I'll end up talking to nobody. I don't really know how I feel about this, but all the experts say I need to be very specific with who I want to talk to. So this is what I'm doing.........

I'm getting ready to publish my first YouTube video, and man, it's really bad............

The videos look like I'm in a cave, so the gym is getting an overhaul.......

I'm moving forward with videos and learning to edit. Thank you Think Media.....

I've started looking on YouTube for people doing what I want to do, and they are light years ahead of me......

I'm starting to video myself, and I look and sound awful......

I took a challenge with my son to make a video everyday for year. This will hopefully lead me into a YouTube channel.....

It's hard to simplify something, and I'm experiencing this with barbell information for my blog.......

I'm writing a lot of content, but don't have many pictures. Finding the pictures I want isn't easy, so I think I'm going to take them myself. The journey of photography begins.......

I love my job. It gives me some great experiences. I'm currently teaching squat, press, and deadlift movements to the oldest person I've ever taught. Listen in to see hold old she is...........

I'm starting to blog about barbell's. They're the most important piece of equipment we use. Listen in as I start the barbell journey......

A lot of exercise equipment is still out of stock, hopefully that will finally turn around this year.

Everything about this process has been hard, but I guess that‘s a good thing. Real results don't come from easy actions....

How to make one program that works for many different kinds of people? That is exactly my question. Listen in to hear what I'm coming up with.

It's getting hard creating all of this alone. I think I need an accountability partner.

I'm creating the actual 2nd50strong programming and ran straight into a problem. Listen in to find what I realized.

Many times the conditions for our workouts won't be great. Are they still worth doing? Listen in and find out.......

The written material is done! Listen in on what I've been doing for the last three months.

We all stop working out at times. I just did too. Listen in to hear what I'm doing about about it.

We all hate certain things about ourselves. Here's one of mine..........

At 2nd50strong we need to up our protein. Listen in to find out how and why......

I'm struggling with my written material with not having a direction to go. I'm also struggling with my workouts. Listen in to see what I'm doing about it...........

Creating written material to look professional is way harder than I thought. Here's another blunder I ran into. Listen in.....

The most important thing to help you succeed is free, and takes almost no time at all. It's your log book. Listen in on why.............

Lifting gloves have a lot of disadvantages, so I don't recommend them. To get a rock solid grip on the bar, chalk is the only way to go......

Finished the press. There's not as much information out there because it's not as popular of a lift. That's too bad considering how fantastic it is for us........

Is boring better? Maybe for our muscles it is. As long as the weights progress, repetition is a good thing.......
