ARNOLD CLASSIC 2016

TANKTEAM–

Frank’s Fitness invaded Columbus, Ohio and hit the Arnold Classic 2016! Describe the weekend? HOLY SHIT! Jam packed!

POWERHOUSE GYM

First on the Agenda? Watching Arnold accept the Powerhouse Legends award.   Seeing Arnold accept this award was truly once in a lifetime… THE MAN HIMSELF! Arnold is my inspiration to achieve dreams, give back and stay hungry. Powerhouse Gym co-founder Will Dabish, presented the award to Arnold and was cool enough to stick around for a photo op. Thanks Will!

THE EXPO

Wall to Wall!! The people, the vendors, the athletes on the concourse stages. Two days was not enough time to hit every booth. I want to thank MHP, Victor Martinez, Jon Andersen, Jessie Hilgenberg, and Dan Gronkowski.

THE BAILEYS

Picture this, you’re shrugging, hittin those traps… You look over and Dana Linn Bailey is shooting the cover of Muscular Development! Damn., if that’s not motivation I can’t tell you what is. Awesome to see and meet the Baileys at the Powerhouse gym in Columbus. Next stop Warhouse!!

EPIC weekend and we will be back next year!

GET BIG! CONQUER! SUPERBOWL!

TankTeam–  Long time no see…Status check!  What are you lifting? How are the Gainzz? 5 Weeks out!

Bulk Season is still in full swing.  GET BIG!   This year I’ve kept “dirty” bulk to a minimum and look and feel 100% BETTER.

Don’t let the weight you’re pushing get in your head.  Yes, crushing a whole pizza daily you will feel the strength gains but how do you feel just walking around?  How do you look in the mirror? Is this the physique and mental state you want?

Get the calories in but still be mindful of your diet.  This isn’t contest prep but this isn’t Sumo training. Don’t go overboard in your eating! Stay healthy physically and mentally and conquer…

Today is Superbowl Sunday, skip the pizza and wings and fire up the grill.  Kabobs are a simple low-carb crowdpleaser and will fit in your macros.

NEW YEAR, NEW YOU!

What’s up TankTeam? New Year, New You – I can’t stress this enough. I walk into the gym and see so many new faces and it’s awesome. New faces in the gym means that person made a decision to make their life better, get healthy, look as good as they feel on the inside, WHATEVER! IT DOENST MANTTER, why? Because it’s your journey not anyone else’s.

Don’t doubt you’re journey and if anyone does, TELL THEM!!… (you can fill in what comes next)..

I will say this until I can’t feel my face, this is your life, you’re journey – Conquer!

Oh and be happy….

VISUALIZATION

TANKTEAM–

I want to take some time talk about visualization and how I practice this powerful technique.

This second step after setting a goal step is visualizing yourself at the finish line. This goes for anything in life not just the gym.

I came across a lifter struggling with the same old “Are my arms going to grow, WTF?”. My response – visualize them with peaks as high as Everest! Or that bicep is the biggest meatball crafted by the best chef in Italy! Anything to take your mind of the same old rut and visualize yourself in the place you want to be.

I use visualization for weak body parts but also right before heavy lifts. My favorites are transforming into the hulk (yess…) or going super saiyan (Goku, not Vegeta) right before that heavy squat set.

It takes practice but once you can use this technique there are no limits. You will go where you want to go and be who you want to be when you need to, even for just a few seconds!

Train hard – TANK
