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 […]

You Don’t Know HIIT

Andre Smith – O-Lineman for the Cincinnati Bengals gets his HIIT on

Yesterday, Timbo (aka Dr. Timothy Miller) added a comment to one of my older HIIT posts – HIIT v.s. Type 2 Diabetes.
Since it was an older post, most of you wwill never see his comment.
And that would be a shame.
Tim’s description of a real HIIT workout was fantastic:
I’ve been doing HIIT workouts about four times per week for three weeks now. I do it on the elliptical trainer at the gym. (The stationary bike tends to hurt my knee.) I can go harder on the stair master, because I’m using my upper body at the same time as my legs. I warm up for about five minutes at modest speed and resistance, then turn up the resistance really high and go AS HARD AS I CAN for 30 seconds, then go slow and easy for five to ten minutes, and […]

Personal Trainers BEWARE!!!
In 2010, a Japanese Fitness Robot named Taizo will begin stealing all of your clients.
Initially designed as a rehabilitation robot for Japanese senior citizens, Taizo has performed well in its 5 test runs at group homes and community centers. During these tests, seniors found it easy and fun to mimic their robotic Richard Simmons.
In fact, company representaties were thrilled with how well Taizo interacted with the seniors.

Sadly, it was only after Taizo had left the building, did they find out that most of the seniors were senile and had confused Taizo for their grandchildren.

Taizo is expected to be ready for commercialization in 2010.
For more info about Taizo, go to PlasticPals

The King Of The Beach MMA took place last Sunday, September 6th, at Port O’ Call in Kill Devil Hills. The event was a fundraiser for the OBX Select Wrestling Team, a non-profit traveling team ran by Coach Kyle Briglia.
There were approximately 200 people at the event, which goes to show how popular MMA is becoming even in the Outer Banks. For the main fight, Wayne Hunter vs Derek “Pole”, the crowd went wild – you’ll see it on the video.
We missed a couple of the fighters’ names, so if you identify somebody on the videos, leave a comment at the bottom of the post and we’ll update the videos.
