NJ Athletes Need INCHES

WARNING: The Video & Article Below Will Offend Many

If YOU are Offended, Then I am Probably Talking About YOU!

Most athletes do NOTHING extra. Not even an extra inch. They get discouraged because they think they need to go the extra mile.

Before you go the extra mile, you need to go the extra inch.

Watch and Learn…..

The speech given above doesn’t just apply just to football players, but for ALL NJ ATHLETES!

Here’s what I KNOW:

- 8 kids just quit a high school wrestling team because it was too hard. Their Coach is actually my old high school wrestling coach. He was awesome…. sounds like he STILL is awesome.

- It’s a sign of the times. Most athletes don’t wanna do any extra. They want facebook, cell phones, video games and fast food. I call this the pussification of the human race.

- Many Varsity athletes can not perform these basic physical tasks:

A) 50 push ups

B) 10 pull ups

C) Jump Rope

D) 10 Bodyweight Squats with proper form

I have more “basics” to add to the above list, BUT, movements such as push ups should be a staple in every athlete’s daily ritual.

- Most athletes skip breakfast because they don’t have time. Translation: “I’m too lazy and not dedicated enough to wake up early and cook myself my own breakfast.

It’s time for athletes to start working on inches.

Blair Wrestling Teams Up with Underground Strength Gym

Nov 1

The Blair Wrestling Team is a national powerhouse, dominating the prep national scene for 30 years. In addition, these NJ wrestlers are moving to many D1 wrestling teams and some even become NAVY SEALs.

Under Head Wrestling Coach, Jeff Buxton, who teaches more than just wrestling, he teaches life skills, I have NEVER witnessed an entire room, of fully dedicated and motivated athletes, not even at the college level.

This video speaks louder than my words, as you can see The Blair Wrestling team going through a workout at The Underground Strength Gym in Edison, NJ.

When Coach Buxton and I connected via e mail, he was 100% open to learning new methods to take his wrestlers to the next level.

This is coming from a Coach who has a team that hasn’t lost a prep national title in 30 years!

I’ve seen teams have losing records for 5 years or more and not have 1% the motivation of Coach Buxton to help their wrestling team.

The Moral of the Story: You are NEVER good enough, you can always get better. Wrestling is part of the puzzle, strength, speed, conditioning and mental training are other pieces of the puzzle.

Are you filling in ALL the pieces of YOUR puzzle?

Think about that.

PS: As you can see from the video with The Blair Wrestlers, we are ALL business. Yes, we have a blast when we train, BUT, if you want to become part of The Underground Strength Gym you better be more motivated than anyone else you know. If not, you are probably not a good fit for The Underground.

If you are highly motivated and want to WIN, BIG time, then give us a call and we can schedule your trial workout.

Football Training at The Underground Strength Gym

In the video below you’ll see two guys hitting a 350 lb thick bar bench press.

Michael Pitts, an All American Safety from Monmouth U looking to get into the NFL, and Brian “Curls” Pascal.

Curls is a freak – but, many of you do NOT know that once upon a time, Curls was NOT  a freak.

In fact, he was slow, pudgy and showed no inkling of athletic prowess.

He would be tagged first in tag games.

But, in middle school he began cranking out calisthenics – lots of them.

In high school he buried himself in the weight room.

Junior year he began training Underground, back when we were in a garage.

Today, as a Sophomore at Johns Hopkins University, Curls is 250 lbs and is one of the strongest, most explosive and most athletic guys I have ever worked with.

Check out Curls & Pitts moving some serious weight!

The lesson here?

Nothing beats hard work and consistency. This stuff has to be done all year – training NEVER stops.

Kill it!

PS: We are currently on a waiting list to get into The Underground Strength Gym. You can still call or e mail us to leave your name and information. Because we are a private club, referrals and invites from our clients will get priority.

PPS: If you’re waiting to begin training until you get “in”, I must add:

1) Not everyone is accepted into our program

2) Waiting NEVER helps. Start training on your own.

Those who stopped by our gym in the fall and winter are now trying to get into the program and missed out. Waiting is NOT a good thing.
