What is the Program Vault? Jun 02, 2018

Show notes

Doug and Anders here; excited to share with you that we've put all of our best training programs on a single membership site so you can access all of them for one monthly membership.

We used to sell them for over $97 per month EACH and now you can have access to all 11 for only $47 per month.

You get 11 programs instead of 1 and instead of paying 11 times as much you only pay HALF as much (if you're not much of a math person... that's a GREAT DEAL!)

Listen to this episode to get familiar with the programs then go to this link for more information on how to get access:

http://shruggedcollective.com/vault

If you have any questions please email us at help@barbellshrugged.com

This is one of the best products we've ever put out at the best price (definitely the best price, it's very cheap for getting so much) we've ever put out, highly recommend you take advantage of it and sign up today.

Best, Doug

In chapter 8, we describe the evolution of human performance and the factors that influence it. We show how the modern fitness industry came to be plagued by extreme ideology, persuasion, and isolation. Andy provides context for this conversation with the history of training from the ancient Greeks to the birth of bodybuilding.

Feed Me Fuel Me — Keeping Perspective w/ Ryan Moody — 88 May 24, 2018

Show notes

Ryan Moody is known around the world for his explosive athleticism. He has broken multiple world records with both Guinness and the World Records Academy in various jumping feats. Ryan is also creator of THEXWOD, a program dedicated to furthering an individuals' ability to build explosive power and speed.

Before breaking those records, Ryan had lived in a state of near constant pain since his life altering bike accident at 8 years of age. He spent most of his young adult life searching for methods to help him overcome his pain, while vigilantly pursuing all of his dreams and goals.

Ryan has overcome debilitating injuries, life-threatening and infectious disease, broken limbs, multiple concussions, double knee surgery, and even paresis (partial loss / impairment of voluntary movement). He was told by doctors on 3 separate occasions that he would; "never walk, run, or play sports again." Professionals have even referred to him as a "Scientific Anomaly!"

In his pursuit of breaking multiple world records, Ryan developed a multitude of health and fitness programs on diverse platforms for all types of people. He travels the world speaking about "Strength Through Adversity", "Prolonging Lifespan & Increasing Quality of Life", and conducts training seminars that teach his health and fitness methodologies.

In this episode, Ryan shares how he coaches a wide range of athletes including children, olympians, and crossfitters to prioritize explosiveness in the hips. He takes the conversation further north and talks about the importance of mindset, especially when it comes to a heavy lift, using Michael Jordan's "sick game" as an example of simply turning the mind off and playing.

Enjoy!
