Now, most of us have seen a Sly Stallone Rocky or Rambo movie right?  If you haven’t…no worries…let me give you a hand a help you get out from under that rock you’ve been living under. 

Sylvester Stallone is a guy who has looked denial, defeat, and distain in the eyes and would not allow himself to be beaten by any of them.

This is our final module in our three part fitness series dedicated to Sylvester Stallone.
In this session, we are going to discuss some of the finer points of this program.

In today’s training session we will be focusing on fat burning and athletic based movements – more specifically, boxing conditioning.

In this workout we’re going to concentrate on muscle building/toning  as well as strengthening as our primary objectives.

This topic continues to be discussed heavily in the fitness and athletic community. How much protein do I need to enhance my muscle growth? How much protein do I need to keep my muscle while attempting to drop unwanted body fat?

These are valid questions. The answers, however, are not always cut and dry.

In my private practice as a professional fitness trainer, I’ve heard just about everything when it comes to fitness goals.

From toning up my hips and thighs-to-burning fat-to-building freaky looking muscles-to-getting a body like a male gymnast.  You name it…I’ve probably heard it.

Hey guys, what’s up?  Matt Elam here.  Today we’re gonna talk about fundamentals of strength and functional mass.  Let’s get started – no time to waste.  We’ve got a lot of stuff to cover here.  This is my basic methodology:  If you truly want to build muscle fast and do it without the use of anabolic steroids, you’re going to have to go old school weightlifting and bodybuilding to get it done!

If you’re an astute follower of bodybuilding, then you know the legendary names of old-time physique champions like: Steve Reeves, Reg Park, John Grimek, and Bill Pearl. Besides possessing physiques that were well ahead of their time, these men had something else going for them: they were athletic!
