Just returned from my trip home in Slovenia and Im tired but excited to get things rolling in the new year! It was great to see everyone and spend time with family and friends and as always time flies when you’re having fun.

I fit a lot into the trip as I wanted to take my wife to Venice (I will have a short video and some thoughts from that trip) and spend a couple of days in the mountain cabin while also getting in my training. Even though there was tons of excuses why I shouldn’t train, I wanted to stay on point in achieving my goals and make sure that a couple of extra meals go where they need to (hint: muscles). On top of that the training helped me get more energy as I had jet lag for about a week!

While I was in Slovenia, my friend and brother told me that they have been training olympic weightlifting once a week in this old gym, and that I need to join them for a training session. As I am always intrigued I obliged, especially because they told me that it was real old school and they even had some kettlebells that are like a 100 years old. After arriving I realized that the coach is a former national team weightlifter which made it real good, because I have been meaning to work on my olympic lifting form. 

So how big was this place and what type of equipment was in it considering that top level athletes and even olympic athletes have trained there (and still do!). Check it out for yourself….

Old Schoo Training 

What this shows you is that this new “top of the line equipment” that you get in big gyms is something to reel you in, but it is not what is going to make you bigger, faster, stronger, or help you lose body fat. When was the last time you got incredible results from your training (or any results at all)? The results come from a good training program, hard work and a environment that can produce only one thing - RESULTS!

Create a home gym, find a gym that is going to help you get to where you want to be, find group of motivated peope to train with and you will get better results than sitting in a gym and watching people curl in the squat rack and do leg extensions. Couple of questions you may want to ask yourself if you are an athlete:

What are you doing to get the edge over your competition?

Do you want to win? How badly?

Do you want to be the top athlete in your high school?

Do you want to get a college scholarship for athletics?

Do you want to break records?

Do you want to have an athletic build that has the show and the “go”?

Then do something about it.
