How does a Discus Throwing Olympian from Chile train during his offseason? He lifts a 465 # Atlas Stones at Area 56 Warehouse Gym! Great to have Claudio Romero back visiting once again!

A wise man once said “Build the chest. F^ck the rest.” So we went out and got one of the legendary pieces of powerlifting and bodybuilding equipment that will do just that. The Dynabody Standing Power Press. This heavy duty unit will increase your pressing power and allow you to train at a variety of angles from incline to flat to decline in both overhand and neutral grips. You may have seen one of these machines used in the Strongest Man on Earth contest for the ascending keg press. We will be upgrading ours with a Thompson Fat Pad from Rogue to make it even more awesome (IYKYK). This particular unit came from infamous Atilis gym in Jersey which made national news for defying the government ordered shutdown of 2020 much like we did. 😉. Remember: Strength. Is. Essential .

As much as you hate it…sometimes the best coach is the one that holds you back and saves you from yourself!

One of the biggest challenges of coaching yourself or writing your own training program isn’t a lack of motivation or accountability. It’s knowing when to pull back and allow yourself to recover.

We see this time and time again with self coached athletes. We hold ourselves to an unnecessarily high standard and push through when we should be backing off.

Competition prep is a perfect example. Pushing too hard or training too heavy too close to meet day can leave you fatigued and prevent you from performing at your best when it matters most.
