Hey guys, I attended the CFFB training you had back in March and am excited to start your training. Prior to the seminar, I was training for the games, which is evaluating fitness one AMRAP workout at a time. I was wondering if you plan on holding another combine. I know this year's combine was cancelled due to scheduling issues. I can't tell you how psyched up I am for this event...
Hi John, I read your post on Irony and you said you tested your blood sugar levels and the closer to 80mg you could keep your levels 2 hours post meal the leaner you were able to get. I started this experiment - my plan is for 30 days - give or take. I just started here is what I got...
Violence is one of the great riddles of the male sphinx. And football, for a lot of teenage guys, is how they learn to solve it. (In other parts of the world, it's rugby. Or armed robbery.) Blame testosterone—that strange ineluctable whatzit that rises up inside you (if you're male) during puberty, insinuates itself into your psyche like a menacing twin, tries to take you over or at least wrestle you down into the blood and muck. Call it: The zombie in the pudding. Out of the sweetness of youth it comes. And just keeps coming. And it wants to eat your brain...
John, I've been following CFFB for a nearly a month now and like the variety, the rest day mid week and mixed up work outs. I have increased in strength and put on a small amount of weight, & according to my good lady wife I also look better naked too!...
John, many thanks for the awesome program! I know that you would of course include them if you thought they were necessary, but I'll ask anyway. If you were to include curls or other direct arm work, what would be the optimal way to do so? Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and experience with us...
I received one recently, asking if I thought constantly varied functional movements performed at high intensity was a solid programming philosophy. Yes, without a doubt...
I am not sure how many of your read the NY Times or are fans of Gary Taubes, author of Good Calories, Bad Calories, but recently Taubes did a review of Robert Lustig’s lecture on sugar, called “Sugar: The Bitter Truth.” The 90-minute lecture discusses the effects of sugar, high fructose corn syrup and epidemic of obesity plaguing us today...
This commercial has all the elements of humor, a Russian billionaire and a tiny giraffe. Actually, I am not sure why this has gone viral, but every time I see him kiss the mini giraffe, I can't stop laughing. Really...everyone just wants opulence...
I always get asked what is up with Phil Collin's song, "In The Air Tonight" and the NFL. I have no idea who or why the stadiums started playing this song, but once they do the mood of the game, team and crowd changes, instantly...
This song finds it way into every play I have and it has been a constant since it dropped in 1992. I was a sophomore in high school, a little less than 20 years ago, and I can remember hearing it for the first time...
