Jamcore Team Blogs

Hello everyone
First I would like to say hello to everyone at MFT and apologize for not being able to be around here . I have been back to my country after 22 years. Seeing my family and my friends after 22 years was really what I needed. I got really burned out on working like crazy and forgot what was important in life. Now I feel good and fully charged to be back here and the new upcoming jamcoretraining.com site stay tuned to see it . God bless you all and Im glad im back here .

To all the members of MFT, the site is not shutting down and I still around to try to help as much as I can with the site. We are looking into a different to keep the site up and running. The payed membership would help a lot but getting the work done to set the section for the members will cost us money. Anyway this site will still be around for a while so No worries at the moment. God bless you all

Hey Everyone
Sorry for the delay to post the next Video Blog answers, we will have them up on friday. The reason we didn't have them on monday is because there was not enough questions asked !

Here's a quick fitness quiz for you:

1. How many push-ups can you do with excellent form?
2. How many chin-ups can you do with excellent form?
3. How many bodyweight full squats can you do with excellent form?

Now have a look at your answers. If you aren't able to do

To say that this weekend's workshops with Crazy Legs of Rock Steady Crew was an absolute success is an understatement. For the FREE Youth Workshop, close to 100 kids and even more parents came out to learn the art of bboying from the Living Legend himself.

Bodybuilding and fitness are really incredible things to participate in.

And I'm not just talking about the health benefits (when it's done properly).

I'm talking about the idea that they literally allow you to become an artist and create a masterpiece with your own body.

Happy Humpday MFT!!!

Wow.. Looking at the last blog I posted, I can't believe an entire month has gone by without me posting a little somethin' somethin' :)

We all know that exercise causes lactic acid buildup and some studies have shown that taking baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) can enhance performace in short-duration, high-intensity exercises. But does sodium bicarbonate help with muscular strength during weightlifting?

Ok, so you've worked through Step One of setting your health and fitness goals – you've determined what your VISION is. Now it's time to move to Step Two of the process.

Step Two is taking an objective look at where you are right now. In order to make decisions about what you are going to do, you have to know where you are starting from.

Happy Weekend MFT'ers!
I know it's been awhile since I've last posted a blog entry... between hosting boot camps, training clients and planning several workshops & events in the very near future, I wanted to share with all of you an article posted in this month's REALITY Magazine about a fellow MFT Member, me :) You can pick up an issue of Reality Magazine at your local Barnes & Noble Bookstore. AND Sagi Kalev also has a feature article in that same issue.

Please read the letter pertaining to Venom Hyperdrive 3.0 (not the plus version).

In a recent blog post, I talked about setting goals. One Tribe Member (Mehdi) asked if I would write a post on setting realistic and attainable goals. Here goes...

To begin with, let's define what a goal is. In my view, a goal is a target. In some cases, it can be an intermediate target on the way to a bigger target. This would differentiate a short term goal from a longer term goal. In order to get to the longer term goal, you have to pass and fulfill the short term goal.

Starting your fitness planning with goals can be a big mistake. Yes, you read that sentence correctly - I said starting with goals can be a mistake.

I hope you will give me a chance to explain myself...

Hello everyone
I received some questions and wanted to share my answers with everyone.

Here are a few things I wish to clarify.
Q: Claims concerning the absorption of vitamins and minerals (and the host of associated problems):
+ Soy's "phytates" change the way that our intestines absorb food. They can decrease the absorption of metals and other minerals.
