From James:

"Held in sunny San Diego, the Strength Matters Summit was a great time with some great people. The driving force behind Strength Matters are some great guys from England who have great vision for what they are trying to do with the summit. In a world full of entry level courses and seminars, Strength Matters is attempting to stand out as a source of advanced level information for experienced, successful coaches.

It was an event that I was really looking forward to and one that certainly did not disappoint. I came away with pages of notes and some really big “aha moments” that will help me create even better training programs. I also met some great people and was introduced to the art of nail bending and tearing a deck of cards in half.

In this podcast, I review my weekend and share my notes and thoughts from the presenters. There were some great lessons about creating great habits, how the big toe and obliques are the key to your power and why you need to massage your breathing muscles among many others. If you’re interested in the best training methods to help you improve your strength and cardio, then this is one you don’t want to miss.

If you are in the fitness field or are interested in the latest and best strength and conditioning info, you should also check out the Strength Matters website at http://www.strengthmatters.tv. They have an excellent podcast as well as some other great resources that I use myself.

That’s it for now, I just got back from a Dan John seminar so I’m sure I’ll have some great stuff to share from it as well. Until then…

Ride Strong,

James Wilson
