  • ASAP Strength Training Podcast; Squat Technique with Three Time Olympian Weightlifter Fred Lowe

    Squats Fred Lowe knows what he’s talking about. He won his first Senior Nationals in Olympic style weightlifting in 1969, and went on to win a total of seven Nationals. He held the US National Record in the clean & jerk for 22 years and was voted as one of the lifters of the decade for the 1970s. He is still the lightest weight US athlete to clean & jerk over 400 pounds, which he did in the 165 pound class. He was on three Olympic teams: 1968, 1972, and 1976. After a layoff from 1983 to 1993, Fred started Masters level weightlifting. He has competed in 3 Senior Nationals since that time and in 1997 took a bronze, becoming the oldest man to medal in a US Senior Nationals.

    If you want to learn proper squat technique, who better to learn from then a three time Olympian.  ASAP Podcaster Ed Cicale talks technique with Fred Lowe in today’s podcast. Just click on the ASAP PODCAST Logo below:

  • BGSU Strength Clinic Wrap-up & Podcast

    Oie_dsc_0461_2

    Aaron Hillman’s first strength & condtioning clinic at Bowling Green State Univ  was quite successful as many coaches, athletes and personal trainers walked away from this clinic with useful and applicable information. Longtime University of Michigan strength coach Mike Gittleson (retired) gave a great talk on developing hand and forearm strength. But it was his professor-like demeanor and storytelling abilities that helped to convey his training methods and topic. There’s no question why he spent 30 years at the U of M and had the opportunity to work for one of college football’s all-time great coaches…. Bo Schembechler. Mike Gittleson’s a true master in the field of strength training.

    We also heard from Kelly Howe… an assistant at BGSU. She oversees the many of the female athletes and she left no doubt as to the intensity of her workouts! We’ll provide further podcasts with Kelly, as well as with Clinic Director Roger LaPointe, and Three time Olympic Weightlifter Fred Lowe.

    Today’s podcast is a clinic wrap-up with Aaron Hillman (BGSU) and
    Cincinnati St. Xavier High School Strength Coach Carlo Alvarez.
