Special Deal From RevGear To KnuckleUp Friends!

Today Morrison received a really exciting phone call from Paul Revlon, the owner of RevGear.
Paul has just ordered a new shipment of BadBoy tshirts (they all come from Brazil) and he wanted to know if any of our members would be interested in the getting the few official Roger Huerta UFC Fight Night 19 t shirt that he’s still got in stock.
It so happens that he’s not going to keep them in inventory too long after the event – it doesnt make much sense, right? But it’s such an unique t-shirt, in such an unusual approach, that we convinced him to let us put the deal here on the blog for all of our friends.
Paul said they’ve only got about 100 shirts left, and he was going to take it down from his website tonight, but Morrison got him to leave it up until […]

It looks like my prediction of a American Soda Tax may soon come true.
According to ABC News, “several of the nation’s leading health experts are calling for a tax on soda as a means of curbing America’s obesity-epidemic”.
But wait, here’s the good part:
Their paper, appearing in the most recent issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, calls for a tax on “sugar-sweetened” drinks in order to reduce the consumption of the drinks and lower health costs as well as fund government-run health programs.

FUND GOVERNMENT RUN HEALTH PROGRAMS
“A tax on sugar-sweetened beverages is really a double-win,” said Dr. David Ludwig, a co-author of the paper and director of the Optimal Weight for Life program at Children’s Hospital, Boston.
“We can raise much-needed dollars while likely reducing obesity prevalence, which is a major driver of health care costs, the paper states.
“Ultimately the government needs to raise more money to cover the deficit, […]

I apologize for the lack of updates lately, I’ve been hard at work on a new project…However, something appeared in my in-box today that I had to share with you…
It was an article from the NYTimes about “The Risks and Rewards of Skipping Meals”
In this article, the author attempted to review some of the research being published back in 2007…Specifically a study publshed in Metabolism, which “looked at what happens when people skip meals but end up eating just as much as they would in a normal day when they finally do sit down to a meal.”
The study, conducted by diabetes researchers at the National Institute on Aging, involved healthy, normal-weight men and women in their 40s. For two months, the study subjects ate three meals a day. For another eight-week period, they skipped two meals but ate the same number of calories in one evening meal, consumed between 4 […]

Charlie Craddock, 1st Place Absolute and 2nd Place In His Category

KnuckleUp Brazilian jiu jitsu and MMA student Charlie Craddock dominated The Good Fight tournament in Virginia Beach on August 29th.
Charlie conquered first place in the Absolute No-Gi Beginner division (Absolute means there’s no weight categories – fighters can compete against heavier or lighter opponents) which is in itself a major accomplishment.
But he went on to win 2nd place on his weight category (177-179lbs) in the beginners division as well.
And Charlie is one of the few fighters that actually respects the beginner requirements (less than one year of training) – most competitors forget their time on the mat when signing up.
The entire KnuckleUp team is very proud of Charlie for these two major wins. He’s a dedicated student, and comes to the jiu jitsu classes even when he’s supposed to start his shift right after.
As you can see in the picture […]

Rev. Jay Bowman After Our Fitness Boot Camp

KnuckleUp’s Fitness Boot Camp beach edition is now finished…
For the past 5 weeks, our group of boot camp warriors woke up at 5am every Tuesday and Thursday to come to the Gym and get in shape following Matt Costa’s military-style workout.
If you ask any of these boot campers, they’ll tell you that it was not easy; it took a lot of determination, strength, and will power.
But what they’ll undoubtedly say is that it was worth EVERY drop of sweat. Warriors like Reverend Jay Bowman lost weight and gained muscle at a rate beyond any treadmill training ever could.
We’re still compiling the data from their last weight in and will post it here as soon as possible.
For now, check out these pictures that Rev. Jay took during some of the sessions:

Instead of doing a post analyzing a scientific study, I wanted to make a list of random fitness tips that came to my head when thinking about staying in shape and eating well, etc. These are just some observations I've made over the past 39 years. I don't turn 40 for another 3 months, but close enough. I am hoping to start this little brainstorming list and have people reading this, add to the list in the comment section.

[I like to think of the posting an article on the Internet as sending a message in a bottle. It is crazy where the info winds up. I send out from my apartment in Seattle and within days it is found in many remote areas throughout the world. I really love the whole concept.]
So This is Just a Random List of Fitness Tips & Observations

A few months ago, I created a Squidoo Lens about Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool Workout.
The lens was essentially an introduction to the workouts that Reynolds had to endure in order to transform his naturally thin (aka scrawny) frame into a muscular, ripped physique worthy of superhero status.
Since then, I have received a ton of emails from guys eager to build their own Deadpool bodies.

The only problem was that I was underwhelmed by the original workout.
It was good, but it wasn’t great.
Sure, it would help you look like a superhero, but it wouldn’t help you perform like a superhero.
So, I re-invented the Deadpool workout and spent the summer beta testing it on some willing victims up here in Toronto.
And, if I say so myself, I have come up with a seriously kick-ass training program.
Over 3 months, my 4 scrawny test subjects:

Gained between 5 and 14 lbs of muscle
Increased their max strength between […]
