  • The Jim Flanagan Podcasts Part One & Two

    Flanagan If you're into strength training and you find yourself in Orlando, Florida…. you have to get in contact with Big Jim Flanagan. Jim's been in the fitness and strength business for over 40 years! Basically, he's seen it all. All of the trends….changes, for good or bad. Yet throughout all of the years, Flanagan has stuck by his guns and hasn't veered off course for the latest "workout of the month". Jim knows the principles of exercise physiology and put the information to work with people like Arthur Jones, the creator of the Nautilus machines and Dr. El Darden, an exercise physiologist, body builder, and author of a multitude of books and manuals on strength training.
    Del frisco's Today, he's the director of operations for one of Orlando's favorite restaurants and top steakhouse… Del Frisco's Prime Steak & Lobster. How popular? Let's just say that the restaurant had one thousand reservations for New Year's Eve!!!!!
    If that's not enough, he's also a distributor of Med-X Strength Training Equipment. And, as for working out, he owns one of the finest home gyms known to mankind. The gym has modern, state-of-the-art equipment and some refurbished original Nautilus machines. But, what really sets the home gym apart from others is the hundreds of photographs and posters…most autographed (with a personal note to Jim) by an incredible variety of famous people from all walks of life.  And each photo tells its own story… as told by Jim Flanagan.
    Before Jim and I sat down for the recording session of today's ASAP~Athletic Strength And Power Podcast, we stopped to eat at one of Jim's favorite diners: Shannon's Diner. The Soup of the day for that particular Friday was "Black-Eyed Pea/ Vegetable" which I had a large bowl full with a hamburger. A special recipe hamburger and the meat is ground fresh in the kitchen by the chef. I've got to tell you…. this is probably the best hamburger that I've had in the last twenty-five years. Therefore, Shannon's Diner gets ASAP Approval!  In fact, I'm planning another trip to Orlando just to go back!  Shane Also, I need to get back there so I can train with Jim Flanagan at his home training center and watch a good western movie while recovering! (Jim's an avid western movie buff).Enjoy today's podcast.

  • Press Release: Football Strength Clinic #1 “The Legends”

    Cincinnati, Ohio: "The Meeting of the Tribes"

    Clinic Date: June 17th & 18th 2011
    conducted at:
    The Clifton Cultural Arts Center
    3711 Clifton Avenue
    Cincinnati, Ohio 45220

     

    Kim_wood_gym_008_2 Former NFL Strength Coach, Kim Wood, will be directing "the best football strength training clinic….EVER.  The one they'll talk about for years".

    Kim Wood was one of the first strength coaches in the National Football League. Hired by the legendary Paul Brown, Coach Wood conducted the strength training program for the Cincinnati Bengals for 28 years. Two of the teams played in the Super Bowl…competing for the NFL's biggest prize. Kim had the opportunity to work with some of the game's finest players. Now, he's planning on paying forward… a strength clinic that will provide training information…real information….that coaches can truly use to improve their programs. This first of several clinics/ seminars planned is titled:

    Football Strength Clinic #1

    "The Legends"

    Kim Wood, who created the world reknowned Hammer Strength machines, has assembled a speakers list:
    Dan Riley... 30 year NFL Strength Coach. Mucho Super Bowls. Washington Redskins
    Mike Gittleson: 30 years University of Michigan. Bo Schembechler's first and only strength coach
    Dr. Ken Leistner…. strength training legend… "there at the beginning" a treasure house of strength training knowledge
    John Wood: combat grip strength guru
    Kim Wood

    ….and many other first tier speakers!

    "….years ago, the NSCA invited Dan Riley to speak at their national clinic in Kansas City. It was a big move for the NSCA because they were concerned about having a "high intensity" strength coach at their big clinic. Anyway, Dan gave an awesome, high energy slide show and presentation of the Penn State Strength Program. People were stunned. At the conclusion of his talk, Danny made an interesting statement. He said, "I'm here to talk about strength training. Let's all get together tonight, roll up our sleeves and get to know each other…and talk about what we're here for….Strength Training".
    There was an ice storm roaring outside and everyone was stranded at the hotel. Space wasn't provided there for all of the coaches….but 70-80 guys got together in an empty hallway and 'talked training' till after midnight. That's where I became friends with Mike Gittleson. It was the best clinic that I've ever been to. The upcoming clinic in June 2011 at Cincinnati follows the spirit of what Dan Riley triggered in K.C."

  • University of Alabama Crimson Tide’s Coach Nick Saban

    Bama …just returned from Orlando , Florida. I got an up close look at the Alabama Crimson Tide. Hard to figure that the team had lost three games this season. However, as you'll hear in today's video… Coach Saban talks about the human side of things…complacency. Not staying focused… not finishing the job. And therefore, 'Bama dropped some games this season after having leads in all three. Anyway, it's always interesting to hear from one of the top coaches in all of football.

  • ASAP Video: at University of Kentucky Basketball Conditioning 2010 [video #80]

    UK It was hot. It was humid. A typical mid summer afternoon in Lexington, Kentucky. Steamy. (ASAP's #1 Canon High Def video camera shut down after being in air conditioning all morning) The Wildcat football squad had just finished up a weight training session. Then, in comes the youthful basketball team. Don't forget, the Kentucky Wildcats just sent an unprecedented five first round picks to the National Basketball Association's (NBA) First Round. So, this is a young team that Coach Calipari will send out to the hardwood this year. But these young guys work hard! No question. And, they have skills!
    This workout may have sent the average guy to the UK Med Center. Yet, Head Trainer Chris Simmons never waivered. He knew this bunch of guys could handle the adverse conditions, while at the same time, the players would acclimate to the training. There was plenty of ice cold Gatorade on hand and the strength staff monitored the players' heart rates with the Polar heart rate monitors…. exercise physiology at its finest here in Lexington.
    Meanwhile, strength coach Mike Malone took the helm…literally, as he rode the Ram Sled that the players were driving from one end of the football field to the other.  Isn't the Ram Sled a football thing? Not at Kentucky! As you'll see in this exclusive ASAP Video….. our 75th video.
