Bryans' X-Mas List: APT Pro Wrist Wraps

 

 

Every strength athlete needs a few specific devices in his gym bag for those heavy days. No, not tampons for THOSE heavy days, but bar bending, joint smunching days. One of my favorite wrap companies is Inzer. They have been doing it a super long time and have perfected several different types based on the need and type of exercise being performed.

Bryans' X-Mas List: Bulletproof Biohacking

 

 

While on the outside I may come across as a big ol' meathead (right Marshall?) but in reality, I am kind of bright fella. This next gift idea is something that is next level kind of stuff for me. Combining the metaphysical with real dietary ideology based on practical application over millenia is the kind of stuff that may lead us to even further superiority in the coming years.


The Bulletproof Executive introduces the first ever Bulletproof Biohacking Conference. A what? Well, I will let them tell you:

Bryans' X-Mas List: Deadlift Platforms for Planet Fitness Locations

 

 

It is my wish to not only have wonderful gifts bestowed upon me by my millions of followers from around the world... but to give back in this time of uncertainty in the fitness culture. When Planet Fitness emerged on the scene as the ani-christ for true fitness enthusiasts, one very common theme emerged from their marketing - No Judgement Zones. Free of people who might make you feel uncomfortable, Planet Fitness has essentially ensured through a series of ad campaigns and in house tattle tale devices, that people like you and I are not welcome in their facilities. They have made it clear it is a maven for fatties to eat gym provided pizza, tootsie rolls and bagels. No Judgement... unless you are a bodybuilder, powerlifter, strongman or someone who looks like they lift heavy things for fun.

Kippups first? Hell no. Strength first.

 

 


I found this article and this is where I stand with Crossfit as a whole. Learn the basics and develop a foundation FIRST, then move on to movements that rely on your ability to learn how to cheat to be effective and speedy. Thanks to Collective Fitness.com out of Australia for this article:
 
Our Moonee Ponds personal trainers often get asked how to do a kipping pull up, kipping muscle ups and kipping knee to elbows? Our answer is always the same, “can you do 10 strict pull ups, 10 strict dips, 10 strict HSPU, and 10 strict knee to elbows (actually getting your knee to your elbow)?” Then we get started on achieving those milestones which is no easy task in itself. It all starts with strength.

Bryans' X-Mas List: Favorite Sammich!

 

 

You can make an arguement about the next one pretty easily, but for me, there is only one choice when it comes to my favorite Chicken Sandwich. I could give a fuck about the Gay vs Christian battle that ensued recently. I see both sides of the arguement. Chik-Fil- A makes sandwiches and supports organizations not everyone is going to agree with. Gay rights groups certainly didn't like those choices and staged a "sit out" and encouraged others to join them in boycotting Chik-Fil-A in that effort.

Bryans' X-Mas List: Safety Squat Bar

 

 

Don't let the four points of contact fool you, a Rogue Safety Squat Bar doesn't mean squatting will be any easier.
The weight distribution is unique to this bar. Training with the Rogue Safety Squat bar is known to tax your anterior chain; the weight distribution falls between the front squat and the high-bar back squat to vary your power output training. This bar is a safer option for intense squat progressions or maximum load lifts.This bar is known to increase your maximum working weight when compared to the traditional back squat.

Bryans' X-Mas List: Lift Big Eat Big

 

 


The boys and girls at Lift Big Eat Big (LBEB) have come up with a marketing idea that is brilliant in our little circle. Lifting Big goes without saying. We all go to the gym to train our biggest and best every day to consistently improve ourselves. Eat Big goes without saying, but often times gets a bad rap for WHAT kinds of foods we are eating. At LBEB eating big and eating right combined with training big and training right is where it's at.
