Bodyweight Strong
Published: Tue, 04/22/14
Just like you, I like lifting weights.
I've been training for many years, and I still love lifting
heavy stuff as much as ever.
Problem is, life "gets in the way" more and more all
the time. A variety of factors - cumulative injuries
that have kept me from lifting heavy like I used to,
less time availability to hit the gym, just wanting an
occasional break from the hard training - have
motivated me to explore other modes of training to
gain functional, healthy strength.
That's what drove me to learn more about advanced
body weight training:

Now when you think body weight training, you probably
think conditioning. Burpees, body weight squats, plank
holds, stuff like that.
That style of training is GREAT - don't get me wrong. I
use it in my workout programming on a regular basis.
BUT - if your goal is to gain actual STRENGTH with
body weight only - you have to use advanced, high-
resistance body weight movements that you can do
for the five to ten rep range. The high rep burn - out
stuff won't do.
AND, you also have to put them together into a logical,
progressive SYSTEM - random "workouts of the day"
will NOT get you to your body weight strength training
goals.
Problem is, there isn't a lot of info in the fitness space
on the concept of getting strong with body weight only
workouts. It's mostly the high-rep conditioning stuff
we mentioned before.
That is, until now.
=> Build strength and lean muscle with just your body weight
My fitness expert friend Forest Vance - the former pro f
ootball player, you remember him, right? - put together a
totally new program, called Body Weight Strong 2.0.
It's a 12 week, progressive training system that is based
around challenging (but attainable) body weight - based
movements to get you super strong. And it's just what
you need if you are looking to gain strength and muscle
with just your own body weight as resistance.

PS - According to Forest, when you train with the Bodyweight
Strong methods, "there is WAY more carry-over to many athletic
activities then there is from other more traditional methods.
"The brain and the nervous system get "better acquainted"
and your body awareness goes off the charts. It is also just a
great "break" and change up from other training methods.
And it REALLY saves the joints."
