I don’t normally do this, but since it actually relates to the topic of this blog, I figured I’d share it with you. One of the things people constantly ask for is results. Where are they results? They always want to know if a program works and I don’t blame them. Well, I feel like my results from M4 are a loud and clear testimony for High Intensity Training. I also feel that my results so far in M5 are also a clear vote for High Intensity Training. However, here is something that will give even more testimony for High Intensity Training. As you all know, my 14 year old son, Matthew (we call him Matty) has been working out with me. He started this mission with me and has been alongside me for every single workout. He has busted his butt. You’ve all seen his workout logs, so no doubt you are seeing his progress as far as the weight training goes, but there has been an unexpected (for some, but I expected it) side effect. Allow me to explain. Matty is a goaltender on a Bantam aged ice hockey team. I have finally seen a major side effect of his training. Today Matty played a game against a team that had beaten his team handily several times before. Today the story was different. Matty was faster, stronger and more agile than he has ever been. He has to do something called a butterfly slide. It involves him being down in his butterfly position (legs in the splits basically) and he has to push hard with his left leg to go right or his right leg to go left. Today he was moving in his butterfly slide so quickly that he was in position each and every time. The other team’s coach commented that he seemed alot stronger physically this game. It is so true. The boy has upped his squat weight 20 lbs. in just 5 weeks. That doesn’t sound like much until you realize that is a 20% gain already in such a short time. He has almost doubled his bench press during that time period as well. It is pretty amazing. Not only is his body shaping up nicely (he needs to do better with nutrition), but he is now seeing results in his hockey playing. I would say that is an awesome benefit to his training regimen. He is now seeing that the reason for training is to improve all areas of your life, including your sports. Yes, I am a proud father!
