    Today’s Workout: Lose weight and build muscle without a workout “plan”

    The Survival Plan: Building an Unbreakable Machine

    The Survival Plan: Building an Unbreakable Machine

    What if you actually had to push, pull, or even carry something incredibly heavy? How about sprint, jump, or climb? And would you have the stamina to do if for a sustained amount of time?

This program has been designed and demonstrated by Mike Counihan, a New York City law enforcement officer and group training instructor. Follow him on Instagram @nodonutshere.

    Interesting Humans: The Waterman That’s Training Adrian Grenier for a Gnarly Swim

    For most of us, running or cycling for two miles is nothing. But swimming through currents and tides and unpredictable swells is an entirely different animal. On September 27th, actor Adrian Grenier will be joining Richard Branson to do just that. The two will swim across the Strait of Messina between Italy and Sicily. Why? Branson is doing this as a part of the 2016 Virgin Challenge; Grenier is doing it to support his own cause: The Lonely Whale Foundation. While rumor has it Branson’s already in training, Grenier has tapped endurance waterman and Red Bull’s Surf+Rescue Technical Director, Bruckner Chase.…

    Introduction or Transition: The plan beginners or intermediates can follow

    It doesn’t matter where you are in terms of your fitness when it comes to this plan.

Once spring comes around, you’re probably looking to shift gears to trim up for summer which typically requires full blown high-intensity training. While some may…
