AMD FAQ’s

1. What is the AMD 2.0 and how is it different to other program out there?

AMD 2.0 is not just a program, it is a system.  It shows you the perfect template that you should utilize for every workout.  It has every essential component that you need to prepare for the workout and to eliminate all of the negative effects from the 23 hours of the day you are not in the gym.  Even though there are 24 weeks of workouts and 2 separate workout paths, the goal of the AMD 2.0 system is to teach you how to create your own programs so you never have to rely on clueless trainers again. I still get emails everyday from people who tell me they feel better, move better and have been getting stronger every workout as a result of applying the AMD method consistently in their training.

2. How do you KNOW these workouts actually burn fat and build muscle?

Because I’ve used these workouts with my clients and athletes and gotten amazing results.  Over the years this has allowed me to tweak and perfect the AMD 2.0 template to what it is today.  Fast and highly effective workouts that can be done in under an hour and leave you feeling better than you have in years.  The AMD 2.0 system has 2 – 12 week workouts, one for building muscle and losing fat and the other for building muscle and getting strong.  In fact, I just used the fat loss component to lose over 35 lbs myself and I feel great.  I’ve actually started jumping again after struggling with a bad knee for the last 20 years.

3. What if I’m a relative beginner?  Can I still use this program?

Definitely!  In fact, that is exactly who the BM/LF program is for.  The person who is new to the gym and wants to get started the RIGHT way.  And if you are a beginner, you can learn how to do the right exercises, the right way.  The key mobility, activation and warm-up movements that most lifters never learn about, will already be in your program.  So you don’t have to make the same mistakes I made when I started lifting.

4. I’m not a young guy, will this program still work for someone who is older?

If you are older, you have to use this program.  Trust me, I know.  As we get older we lose mobility, we lose muscle mass and we become more susceptible to injuries. The structure in the AMD program will bring back balance into your program and help reduce those every day aches and pains. You’ll feel better, move better and that makes all the difference.

5. Does this program work for women as it does for men?

I’ve used this same template and these same workouts for my female clients as well.  Issues like knee stability, upper back strength, posture and fat loss can all be overcome with a comprehensive program done consistently.   In my experience women are very tenacious and love when they start seeing results.  That is why I’ve received so much positive feedback from women who have applied AMD to their workouts.

6. What if it doesn’t work for me?

I have included an 8 week money back guarantee that after you try the program,  you’ll love it.  Give AMD an honest effect and be consistent on the program as it is layed out and you will get results and feel better.  If you don’t, you can email me directly and I will refund your purchase price.

7. When can I get my hands on AMD 2.0?
The system will be available on tonight (Monday, December 6th) at midnight.  I am offering AMD 2.0 at a 20% discount (and with some awesome bonuses) and will return the package back to the normal pricing soon.  I truly believe in the program and it has changed countless lives. I hope you’re ready to change yours.

Hardest Core Exercise – Part II

Dragon Flags with Bruce Lee Son!

by Jim Smith, CSCS, RKC

In the first installment of Hardest Core Exercise Ever, you’ll remember we setup a sit-up to press on the GHR bench with two kettlebells.  This variation provided a high intensity, powerful contraction of the rectus abdominis and hip flexors, as well as engagement of the lats.  A contralateral torque was also was also overcome by the internal / external obliques and TA.  More so when the kettlebells were pressed independently.

In this next installment, we will target the same musculature with another high intensity exercise.  It is not called the Hardest Core Exercise Series for nothing!

For our next exercise, we’ll give a shout out to the guy with one of the best known six-packs in the biz – Bruce Lee.  No one can deny his world-class physique.  But unlike most guys, he was not only ripped, he was strong.  And one of the reasons for his strength was some of the advanced bodyweight exercises he used in his training.  One such exercise was the Dragon Flag.

Oh you’re still not convinced, let me throw in Rocky from Rocky IV (even though Rocky III was the best one!)  Sly was at his peak and wanted to show how hard he was training to conquer the evil Russian.  So again, the Dragon Flag was pulled out.

Dragon Flags

Dragon Flags are performed by bracing hard on a bench or hard surface, while locking your arms in a fixed position.  The legs are driven up as if you are performing a reverse crunch.  From there, the lifter will lower themselves down not allowing any part of their body to touch the bench except for their upper back.  This is an important form cue.  This makes the exercise so much harder.  The lifter lowers their body until it is right above the bench.  The other important coaching cue is to make sure when the lifter raises back up, they do NOT bend at the waist, but rather raise their entire body as it was lowered, in a straight line.

Why Are Dragon Flags Good?

Dragon Flags entire the entire torso.  The entire torso is (and should be considered) the core.  Isolated movements attempting to target one muscle group are not effective in the real world.  More torso rigidity for squats, deads, bench press, clean & press, sporting events, athletes, power development, etc…you name it, is developed with Dragon Flags.  Long duration tension (static and engaging strength training movement patterns) along with a full body engagement will always be preferred in the long run.

Where to Incorporate Dragon Flags?

We typically engage them after the workout.  We know that the athletes are warmed up by that time and also that none of their primary lifts will be affected by the recovery from doing the Dragon Flags.  They are a seriously powerful movement and full recovery between sets is a must in order to give an all out effort with each attempt.

If I Can’t Do a Dragon Flag, What Do I Do?

You can modify the Dragon Flags to make them easier if you can’t perform them right away.  It took me a long time to be able to start hitting them on a regular basis.  You can just perform negatives.  Lower as slowly as possible and then drop your feet onto the bench and drive back up to the starting point.  You could lower slowly as far as you can and then tuck your knees to your chest instead of raising back up and keeping your body straight.  This would be considered then next level up.  If you can hit the knee tucks AND control the negative to a stopping point above the bench and with your body in a straight line, you can then move to the full execution.

Dragon Flags

As you’ll see in the video, I hit 5 reps on the first set.  I think I could have hit a couple more with good form.  In the second set, I throw on ONE 10lb ankle weight and try it again.  You’ll have to check out the video to see how I did!

Cool Metabolic Core Training Exercise

Great for Conditioning and Power

Check out this cool exercise from Martin Rooney.  He demonstrates the proper execution of the movement with a powerful rowing motion with the arms and an explosive flexion at the hips.  Pulling in the lats and upper back is key to any real core training movement.
