Skip to Main Content Call Sales LOOK BETTER, MOVE BETTER, FEEL BETTER, GET STRONGER, AND BECOME UNBREAKABLE Stop doing programs that give you one benefit at the cost of everything else that matters to you, and start a program that builds everything you want. 90% of the fitness industry focuses on the outward appearance of fitness. If you have low body fat and some decent muscle, you’ll make an awesome before and after picture, even if it’s something that’s entirely unsustainable and you feel terrible. Aches and pains are considered the cost of doing business when it comes to fitness, and some wear it like a badge of honour. LOOK HOT NAKED or IMPROVE ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE If you want to become an absolute stud in terms of how much weight you move or how fast you get, you usually aren’t going to stop traffic with your six pack. Likewise, if your main goal is aesthetics, you’ll probably not become a speed demon who moves like an undercover ninja. You typically have to pick one or the other and deal with the results you get. IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THIS WAY What if you could lose weight, gain muscle, and not sacrifice your ability to move pain-free? What if the program you used actually helped you to move better, feel better, AND look better all at the same time? I may not know you, but I know what you’re going through. Likely you’ve hit a plateau with your training where you’re not getting any stronger, losing more body fat, muscle growth has stalled, and you’re finding it hard to feel like you’re in good enough shape. There’s likely also a couple of small aches and pains, not to the point of being injuries, or maybe they are, and they’re getting in the way of you doing the best workouts you possibly can. THIS SHOULD STOP NOW Your workout should get you closer to your goals, make you feel like you’re in better control of your body, and also have you moving better than you did before. If your current program isn’t doing this for you, YOU NEED A NEW WORKOUT PROGRAM As featured in I’ve worked as a personal trainer for over a decade, and in that time I’ve had the opportunity to work with the following: Olympic caliber athletes. Professional athletes National sports teams and organizations Spinal rehab clients recovering from injuries, surgeries, and long standing issues “Weekend warriors” looking to get the most out of their passions without feeling like they got ran over by a truck every week Medical management clients Average Joes and Janes looking to stay healthy A common theme with all of them is they wanted to feel good, move well, and look hot with or without their clothes on. I’ve gone through the same thing. I’ve personally done programs focused on: bodybuilding powerlifting “functional” training speed work, sport performance, and everything in between Whether these programs delivered great success or failure, I found myself feeling beat up and worn down by them. When I would use these techniques with my clients, they found the same thing. Some would add 100-200 pounds to their deadlift, but then complain of low grade low back pain, or sore achy shoulders that didn’t go overhead as well as before. When I started blending elements of different programs together, I still saw similar results when I was focusing entirely on one element or another, but also didn't feel like I'd been hit by a truck every week, and didn't need to spend as much time doing active recovery on my non-training days. My clients found the same thing: "They moved better, built more strength, felt powerful in their daily activities, and loved every second of their training." I like hanging out with people who make me feel dumb. Dean Somerset is one such person. This isn't to insinuate, however that he's some uppity strength coach who thinks he's the smartest guy in the room - on the contrary, Dean is one of the most humble, down-to-earth people I know. Tony Gentilcore CSCS Most training programs promise a lot in a very short time. When they don’t deliver on the promises, people will look elsewhere. Kick program-hopping in the face with a program that continuously makes you feel better and gets the results you wanted, plus some you didn’t know you needed. Everyone knows fitness isn’t developed within a couple of weeks, but over the span of years of dedication and consistency. It’s the guy (and girl) who are in the gym every week, month after month, who see the best results and biggest health benefits, not the one who hits it incredibly hard for a month or 3 and then falls off the face of the earth. 12 weeks only gives you the very earliest physiological adaptations to see progress. Most red blood cells have a life span of 120 days, meaning to see meaningful physiological changes in how your body utilizes and transports oxygen, you’ll have to train consistently for 3-4 months. That’s just to see the start of oxygen transport improvements. Your mitochondria, the cellular powerhouses that use oxygen along with carbs and fats to make energy to workout, can see upticks in their development following a single session of cardio activity, but to see meaningful increases in mitochondrial density (how much oxygen can be used and how much cellular energy can be produced) the timeline seems to be more around 16-20 weeks of consistent effort. What does this mean? Your 30 day challenges are useless and a waste of time if you’re looking for meaningful and sustainable changes in how you look, move, feel and perform. To see increases in muscle accretion (what muscle growth is technically called to physiologists) it would take at least a month to observe in lab settings, and a minimum of 3-6 months to show a visible difference in muscle size not chalked up to carb or water balance changes or other nutritional status changes. As a result of these features of physiology, using a 12 week program is good, but usually needs a lot more time to see the kind of results people want in a program. It’s a convenient calendar to match to a season, a business quarter, or to a semester in school, but doesn’t technically match your physiological demands to see the results you’re after. Additionally, most programs try to cram as much into that short timeframe as possible, meaning people leave the gym feeling crushed and wind up dropping out after only a few weeks. Dean is one of my go to guys in when I need help finding exercises for my patients with orthopedic issues. His biomechanics/kinesiology knowledge is top notch. Dr. Spencer Nodalsky Family and Obesity Physician That’s why I made it my mission to create something better. I wanted to make a program that would address these key features: Programming as individual as possible and adaptable to each individuals specific training environmental and schedule. Long enough to get the results and consistency that would make training a part of their life, not just a component for a few weeks. Make people look great, move great, and feel great. THAT'S WHY I CREATED HIGH TENSILE STRENGTH TRAINING Tensile strength is a quality of a material that allows it to handle forces applied to it without bending or breaking. Essentially, the higher the tensile strength, the more stress the material can handle. With High Tensile Strength, the goal is to increase what you can do, in all directions and outcomes, and handle those stressors without failing. This means making you strong, stable, flexible, powerful, while increasing your cardio capability, work output, and movement competency, all while making you look more athletic, trim and powerful than ever before. A very unique aspect of High Tensile Strength is the semi-custom program generator. Remember those “Choose Your Own Adventure” books from our childhood? Where you turn the page to a specific choice to progress the story in the direction of your choosing? Imagine having complete control of how, when, where, and how often your program is developed to maximize your abilities, minimize your weaknesses, while also letting you train ...
