We just redesigned the Workout of the Day website with a fresh WordPress theme that makes all the info about pushups, pullups, burpees, and all the other bodyweight exercises you love a lot easier to find.
We also improved our exercise reference library with YouTube videos about burpees, pistols, knees to elbows, and all the other exercises that comprise our circuit training and daily exercise routines.
Expect to see more updates soon. This is only the beginning…

Time to talk about your body's potent fat burning hormone: HGH. I wanted to let you guys know up front that this post isn't a grand scheme to sell some sort of HGH supplement. There are some pills and supplements that can make a little difference, but this article will be dedicated to increasing your Human Growth Hormone (HGH) with just a solid diet and exercise routine. I've talked in passing about HGH in the past, but felt the need for a post that goes a bit more in depth.

[The science behind HGH is as simple or as complex as you want to make it. I will touch on how HGH works in your body, but mainly focus on actions you can take to increase this natural fat burning hormone in your body. Oh yeah, this picture is suppose to be a mad scientist.]
The Basics: What is HGH (Human Growth […]

The European EBU lightweight Champion Anthony Mezaache retained his title yesterday in Paris, France.
He spent 10 days in my camp near Philadelphia to start a strength and conditioning program 2 months ago. He showed great technique, speed and conditioning to win an unanimous decision in 12 rounds.

This question kept me up late last night:
Why don’t you make shopping lists for people instead of meal plans? let people make what they want, when they want it. when the food is out, you’re done eating until the next shopping list is published.

Really, its a very good idea.
A predetermined weekly shopping list that contains a set number of calories, fruits and vegetables provides an incredible amount of flexibility while at the same time helping people ‘target’ a certain calorie intake.
Basically, take a weekly calorie goal, and eat it through out the week in any manner you like. Once meal per day, three meals per day, 32 meals per day….what ever suits you best. BUT, when the food runs out..the food runs out.
This would be a great way to learn what a certain calorie intake ‘feels’ like.
The simplicity and logic makes this an intriguiging idea.
I checked with John Barban and […]

Fat Loss Meal Plans

NEWS FLASH: Over the next couple days your email in-box is going to be FLOODED by people promoting Meal Plans.
My guess is your going to get a MINIMUM of 5 emails over the next week.
You’re going to here all kinds of stories of why you absolutely MUST get a meal plan.
And, surprisingly (under the correct circumstances) even I am going to be one of those people!
Here’s the deal:
I’m not just blindly promoting some random product – I am promoting it for a specific purpose ANDfor a specific reason.
That reason is I lost a HUGE debate with Eat Stop Eat science editor John Barban.
This debate led to John creating meal plans.
It was about 2 months ago, we were sitting in Williams Coffee Pub in Burlington Ontario, I was having a cappuccino and John was having a black coffee (he was fasting).
Out of the blue, John drops this line on me
John: “You […]

Billy Frezza Will Be Debuting In The First MMA Cage Fight In The Outer Banks

KnuckleUp’s own Billy Frezza will make his debut during the first ever MMA Cage Fights in the Outer Banks, to take place July 18th, at the old SeaMark Store in Nags Head.
The Outer Banks club is proud to support Billy and he’s been receiving a well-rounded training, worth of a large amateur show.
Billy has been training with all of our highly-qualified instructors, each teaching him their specific areas of expertise, ranging from cardio training to jiu jitsu submissions.
I had the honor to help him with his submission training, and I was flabbergasted by his agility, speed, and technique. Given the approximate 70lbs difference between us, Billy’s ground game is effective and sharp.
A very dedicated fighter, he’s commited to the training, respects his intructors, and spends an unsurmountable amount of time at the gym. If Morrison had […]

Brad – as I’m wanting to lose “baby weight” after my 6th baby just 7 weeks ago I’m wondering your thoughts since I’m a nursing mother and getting enough nutrients to be sure my baby girl has enough. Is that not a concern since you actually do eat every day? Or would a 16 hour fast be better nutritionally for my baby?
Thanks so much –
Vanessa

From the research I have read, a women’s breast milk is unaltered during periods of short term fasting. The common belief is that the nutrients in breast milk come from the mother body-stores and not the immediate food derived sources.
I personally know of two women who have successfully lost baby weight while following ESE. First was my wife, and second was Lindsay, whom you can read about HERE.

PS- This is one of those touchy amost medical questions, so I should point out that my comments are […]
