Andy Bolton – The Phase That Launched 1000 Lbs
Could It Really Be This EASY To Turn Yourself Into A “Squatting Machine” And A “DEADLIFT KING”… Even If You Spend LESS Time At The Gym Than You Currently Do… And Have A Lower Risk Of Injury Than You Have Right Now?
The Answer Is “YES”… And If YOU Want To Eliminate All The Physical Pain That Can Come From Training With Bad Technique And Poorly Designed Training Programs, And Start Experiencing The True Strength, Size, Speed And Power Gains That You Deserve From Your Training, REGARDLESS Of Your Current Ability Level… Then This Will Be The Most Important Thing You’ll Ever Read…
Dear Friend,
I have some important questions for you. Think carefully as you answer…
- Have you ever put your heart and soul into a training program—(that you spent a long time designing)—and then ended up frustrated with your LACK of progress… And you just couldn’t figure out why?
- Can you remember the last injury you suffered from training and how it affected you… The physical PAIN and the frustration of not being able to get to the gym and train? (This sucks… doesn’t it?)
- Does it annoy the hell out of you when you have an amazing training cycle (one that goes exactly to plan) and then you turn up at the competition and FAIL to achieve the numbers you aimed for?
- Are you willing to do whatever it takes to reach your strength training goals?
- Do you secretly fear that you might never achieve the goals that you want to in your lifting career – does this make you feel like you might be wasting your time and effort?
- Have you ever felt CONFUSED by the huge amount of information available on strength training… and then not known who to listen to and which strength training program to follow?
- Do you ever feel like all you want is a coach you can TRUST… to show you how to train… and provide you with a strategy that will help you build brutal strength, a HUGE Squat and Deadlift and violent lower body power?
- Do you ever feel like your mind is ready to train hard… but your body feels physically BURNT out and tired (with “achy” joints and sore muscles)?
- Do you sometimes feel that if you knew how to improve your Squat and Deadlift technique… your strength would skyrocket and your injuries/aches and PAINS would go away?
- Have you ever given yourself a hard time and beat yourself up (when you trained with discipline – hard and heavy), during the weeks leading up to a competition… And then lifted “light” and missed your top attempts on the day (when it truly counted), in front of your friends, family, training partners, team mates and fellow competitors?
- Do you want to be seriously STRONG?
Here’s The Bottom Line
If you answered “YES” to any of these questions, then I have some important new for you…
The news is that you are NOT alone.
In fact, that list of questions was created from talking to literally hundreds of lifters and athletes about the problems they were facing with their strength training and their quest to get STRONGER, more powerful and faster.
It’s a fact: most lifters have had the experience of being pain free and thinking they have found the “magic” training program… but then they quickly end up injured andmaking no progress…
And then a never-ending cycle occurs where some progress in made… but then an injury occurs and it becomes easy to start to rely on pain killers to get through workouts and basically… the fun of training disappears and going to the gym starts to feel like a grind.
One thing after another… injuries, pain, missed workouts and no progress. This builds and builds and it becomes easy to start to question why you are bothering to train at all.
This situation gets to the point where it’s normal to start questioning if this “just how training is”. Are pain and in-consistent progress just something to be accepted by lifters?
Is this description REALLY how things have to be?
Or is there a better way?
Why Some Lifters And Athletes Make Consistent And Injury Free Progress, (Year After Year)… And Achieve Their Goals And Become Champions… Yet Others Spend 20 Years “Busting Their Ass” In The Gym and Still End Up Small, Injured, WEAK And Frustrated With Their Progress…
I’m Andy Bolton and I’m one of the strongest men to ever walk the face of the planet. Period.
I don’t say this to brag to you, but rather to re-assure you that I know what I’m talking about.
In my 20year + career as a Powerlifter and Strongman I have become a 6 time World Champion, the former World Record Holder in the Squat and the first man to ever Deadlift over 1000lbs.
I have a huge arsenal of tips, techniques, methods and strategies for building SUPERHUMAN strength, explosive power, speed and all round athleticism.
And I have used this knowledge to produce outstanding results for myself and for other athletes who I have worked with.
However, it wasn’t always this way and my ride to the top of strength sports wasn’t so easy to start off with. In fact, it was hard as hell…
In my early years I struggled with many areas of my strength training…
- My Squat and Deadlift Technique was awful and I didn’t know how to correct it… In fact, my technique was awful on EVERY exercise I did in the gym
- I was constantly frustrated by aches and pains (and some more serious injuries too… these completely stopped me training at certain times, which was very very annoying)
- The issue of designing a sensible, powerful training program that would produce consistent gains in strength… Well, let’s just say that unfortunately this was a total mystery to me
The good news (for me and those who I help) is that over the years I sought out strength training advice from great athletes and coaches all over the world.
Over time I pieced all the information together (and applied my own findings)… to create my own training methods. A set of methods and strategies that have seen meachieve huge success… Success that early in my career I thought would never be mine.
Once I understood how to make rapid, injury free progress in the gym I started helping other lifters and athletes to develop outstanding strength levels, power and athleticism.
And some of these guys have gone on to become Champions in their own right.
There are many reasons why it took me thousands of hours of my life to gain the knowledge to develop my strength potential. I’ll share the main reason with you right now:
Most of the information out there on strength training is garbage. Unfortunately, you have to read and use a lot of garbage to know that it is… I did this and it cost me a lot of time and effort (both in and out of the gym)
In fact, anybody who wants to gain strength, size, power and speed will probably end up reading more junk than they do “good information”. This is a sad fact, but true.
And it can cost YOU a lot of time, wasted effort and pain.
Time that you could be spending strength training and getting STRONGER
It’s not your fault that this lousy information is so easy to get hold of and the good stuff appears to be locked away… kept in secret by the greatest coaches in the world and only used on their world class athletes.
Luckily for you I’ve made a lot of discoveries in my strength training career and I’m not selfish enough to keep it to myself.
I like to share…
In fact, I’m going to let you in on some very important points right now. These things are so important that you must read them AND use them if you want to achieve your strength potential…
The 3 Keys To Making “Consistent And Rapid” STRENGTH Gains, Whist Minimising Injury Risk
After more than 20 years involved in strength sports and devoting a huge part of my life to getting myself and other athletes brutally strong and explosively powerful; I’ve realised that there are 3 Keys that YOU must do if you want to achieve your strength potential and make your training career as long as possible.
Simply put, if you make it your mission to understand and use these 3 Keys – you will find yourself on a long and happy journey where you get STRONGER and more powerful, month after month and year after year…
However, failure to use these 3 Key concepts will kill your strength building progress and lead you towards nasty injuries that could put you out of the gym… FOREVER.
Here are the 3 Keys to Strength that you MUST use if you want to get strong:
Strength Key # 1.
You MUST Know How To Write a Strength Training Program That Works… (This Is A “Make Or Break” Situation). If you CAN Do This You Have A Chance Of Reaching Your Potential… If You Can’t Do This Then Say “Hello” To Being Weak and Injured…
Your Strength Training Program is your blueprint for success in the gym… (Your strategy for developing strength, speed and power).
If you don’t have a strategy (training program) then you will never reach your potential. There isn’t a world class athlete I know who got to the top by “winging it”. No no no… They all had a plan…
And so must you.
Your strength training program will lay out many things. Some of these include:
- When you train
- How long you train for
- What exercises you should use
- What order you perform those exercises in
- Load/Set/Rep Parameters
- Rest Periods
Pretty involved eh?
But this is exactly what it takes to get really MIND-BLOWING strength. A good strength training program can be what separates you from your competitors on competition day and allows you to ruthlessly destroy them.
If you combine a good training program with excellent Squat and Deadlift technique, then you will supercharge your training results.
This leads us nicely into…
Strength Key # 2.
You MUST develop awesome technique on the Squat and Deadlift (if you want to develop insane levels of strength)… And to do this you must practise it – GREAT technique doesn’t just happen by chance.
Technique is often over looked by many athletes. And it’s one HUGE thing that separates world class athletes from everyone else.
Some people don’t know what good technique looks like and some don’t seem to care… but you must pay attention to your technique and work on it every time you set foot in the gym (on every set and every rep).
It’ll give you an instant advantage over 90% of your competition who ignore their technique.
It doesn’t really matter whether you look at Powerlifting, Weightlifting, throwing a Shot-Put or a fighter throwing a killer knockout punch… you’ll find the same thing and come to the same conclusion; the greatest athletes in every sport tend to have the best technique.
With the Squat and Deadlift this is definitely true. Building great technique can add pounds to your lifts faster than anything else you can do.
Here are my 7 tips that you MUST use for Super Squat and Deadly Deadlift technique:
7 Keys to a Super Squat:
- Set up correctly
- Take a deep breathe into your belly before you start the descent
- Make sure you upper back is TIGHT, your shoulders pulled back and down and your chest forced out
- Your weight should be on your heels and mid foot (not your toes)
- Push your knees out and then “sit-back” on the descent
- Drive as EXPLOSIVELY as you can on the way up – attack the bar like an animal (and arch your upper back HARD)
- Hold your breath until you have completed your rep
7 Keys to a Deadly Deadlift:
- Build a vice-like grip (if you can’t hold the bar you can’t pull BIG or fast)
- Start with the bar close to your shins – an inch or two away at the most
- Make sure your arms are locked straight before you pull (and keep them that way throughout each rep… letting them bend is asking for Bicep tears. OUCH!)
- Before the bar leaves the floor… apply some TENSION (think of explosively squeezing the bar off the floor by gradually increasing the force you are applying to it. Don’t just go from relaxed to giving the bar a good yank… This won’t be a strong position and is tough on the Biceps)
- When the bar hits knee height… Drive the Glutes forwards to stand you up straight and complete the lift
- Keep your Abs tight at all times
- Take a deep breath into your belly before pulling and hold this breath until you have completed the rep
So now you know how important being able to write a good strength training program AND working on great Squat and Deadlift technique are to ensuring your long term strength building gains…
However, there’s still another very critical aspect to getting STRONG…
Strength Key # 3:
Rest and Recovery are ESSENTIAL if you want to reach your strength potential… Failure to build enough rest and recovery time into your training programs will lead to OVERTRAINING (this will kill your strength gains and invite injury)
The process of training for strength is a pretty HARD one. You train your ass off in the gym, several times a week. You’re lifting heavy weights non-stop… And this can take its toll on your body.
If you don’t know how to REST and RECOVER you will more than likely end up over-trained and injured. (I certainly did early in my career, before I figured out all the pieces to the strength training puzzle).
The real secret regarding strength training is this:
You cannot train “balls to the wall” every week
This secret sounds so simple, yet most guys fail to listen to their bodies and keep trying to push harder and harder every week… inviting injuries and a lack of strength gains (the exact opposite of what they truly want).
If you want consistent strength gains AND training longevity, take careful note of the following rest and recovery guidelines and apply them to your training…
- Have back-off weeks when you feel run down and weak. These weeks involve training a bit lighter and with less volume (sets and reps) than usual, in order to allow your body and mind to recover
- Use massage, contrast showers, swim recovery and peri-workout nutrition to supercharge your strength training progress and speed up your recovery
- If you do get an injury, STOP doing everything that aggravates the injury until it heals. (If you try to train through injuries you are asking for an even worse one!)
You now know 3 of my most important Keys to making Consistent and RAPID Strength gains, (whilst minimising injury risk) and you are probably feeling like there is hope that if you find the right strategy you will be able to achieve all of your Strength goals.
With that exciting thought in mind… I’d like to introduce you to…
