Are you looking for a way to improve yourself and achieve your goals? Pursuing strength and conditioning is not just about building muscle and improving physical fitness; it can also be a powerful tool for self-growth and personal development. When you commit to a strength training program, you're working on your physical strength and building mental toughness and resilience. You'll learn to push through discomfort and overcome obstacles, which will help you to tackle challenges in all areas of your life. Zach Even-Esh is the founder of The Underground Strength Gym, a training facility in New Jersey that focuses on strength training for athletes and individuals looking to improve their fitness. Zach faced challenges such as being bullied and struggling with self-confidence. He found solace in physical fitness and began strength training at a young age, which helped him to build confidence and overcome his insecurities. Zach offers a unique perspective on strength training and its benefits. He emphasizes the importance of hard work, discipline, and perseverance in achieving fitness goals and encourages individuals to push themselves beyond their limits. Tune in as young leaders ask questions about life, personal growth, entrepreneurship, and more! Quotes: "A life spent looking for shortcuts is a long road to nowhere." – Zach Even-Esh "When you get to that level where you're doing work that matters, You're no longer going to be interested in going out to find the job; they're just going to come to you." – Matt Brad "Because if I didn't look strong and put on muscle, I become a target. And I noticed it; the bigger kids did not get picked on." – Zach Even-Esh "If they didn't have to struggle for anything, without struggle, there's no strength to be built to get you through the tough times. You have to invest." – Zach Even-Esh Takeaways: Shortcuts may seem like an easy way to succeed in life, but they can lead to long-term consequences. Success requires hard work, perseverance, and dedication. It is essential to understand that there are no shortcuts to success. One must put in the effort and time required to achieve their goals. Successful people often leave clues behind that others can follow and learn from. By studying successful people's habits, attitudes, and behaviors, we can gain insights into what it takes to succeed. When you start doing work that truly matters, you will no longer have to search for job opportunities as they will come to you. This means that success and recognition will follow when you pursue something you are passionate about and believe in. Building physical strength can be a means of protection against bullies and attackers. Taking care of your body and building physical strength can increase your confidence and self-esteem, making you less of a target for bullying and harassment. Strength training can also help you develop discipline, mental toughness, and perseverance, valuable skills that can be applied to other areas of life. Struggle and hard work are essential in developing strength and resilience to face difficult situations in life. Without effort, there is no growth. Through adversity and challenges, we learn and develop the skills necessary to overcome obstacles and achieve our goals. Conclusion: Strength transformation and conditioning can be good for self-growth and learning that you are capable of achieving any success you want. By setting and achieving fitness goals, individuals can develop discipline, focus, and perseverance, which are essential skills for success in all areas of life. Strength training can also improve confidence and self-esteem, making individuals feel more capable and empowered. By investing time and effort in strength training, individuals can learn that they are capable of achieving any success they want and apply these lessons to other areas of their lives.

Today's podcast features strength coach, Zach Even Esh. Zach is the founder of the Underground Strength Gym, and has been a leading figure in creative and adaptive strength training means. He is also the host of the Strong Life podcast and the creator of many educational resources in the realm of human strength and performance. As the world moves forward, the world of training has become an interesting place, accelerated by the changing club sport scene, technological advances, social media, and more. At the same time, the actual human being performing the training hasn't changed, and human beings have far more nuances to them than simply being based on the same concepts that a machine, such as a car, does. In many ways, human beings are being trained less and less like actual humans, and more as machines. Cones and ladders have replaced playing basketball or soccer. “Speed Training” has replaced running track, playing other sports, or racing friends on the playground. This isn't to say that our collective intelligence hasn't created a substantial leap forward in understanding training frameworks, but at the same time, increased intelligence doesn't automatically equal understanding how to create the richest possible environment for an athlete. On the show today, Zach speaks on the importance of imperfect, and chaotic elements in training. We talk about how these elements are not just important with respect to the chaos of sport, but also in the level of how we are meant to adapt to training in general as human beings. He talks on the power of a nature-based training system, his menu-based training days, as well as what we can learn from training that “breaks the rules” or would be thought to create “sub-optimal” adaptations. Finally, Zach hits on the important elements of community in the world of sport, and the modern plague of business that has enveloped the schedules of kids, as well as society in general.

Timestamps and Main Points: 3:23 – The branding of “underground strength” versus “speed” when it comes to marketing, and what sports parents are familiar with in performance 8:07 – What a ideal world of play and movement would (and does) look like for a uyoung athlete 15:48 – The nature of preparation based on nature and chaos, versus things needing to be neat 28:19 – How kids are doing more now days, with more coaches, yet accomplish less 38:13 – Keeping training as “rich” and dense as possible, so athletes can spend less total time in training, yet hone human qualities to a maximal level 42:13 – Zach's menu-based workout system for his athletes 48:01 – The power of nature based, variable training to improve an athlete's power outputs and general adaptation 1:10:23 – The value of community in one's training environment as well as the value of training equipment with a history behind it, and the inspiration of using that “He's playing soccer… that is speed and agility” “Sport has no absolutes, so when they are training, I want their body to feel comfortable in awkward positions” “That's something software hasn't brought to the table, kids learning how to compete” “My gym is located across the street from the park, so we'll warm up with a game of ultimate football, and how do you get to the park? We partner up and you carry kettlebells or a heavy medicine ball; then we'll segue into jumping and hand walking and crawling then we do a 5-point game, and then carry everything back” “We carried to the park, played,
