These guys REALLY fired me up. There is something AMAZING about kids who “get it”.
They do the HARD work without anyone else motivating them, they motivate themselves from within. This is a VERY rare quality as I’ve worked with hundreds and hundreds of athletes, teams and coaches through the years.
Check out the motivation and intensity of the crew at The Edison Underground Strength Gym.
For MANY, Football just ended or ends on Thanksgiving. For a select few teams, one week after Thanksgiving.
For MANY Football players, their “off season” training will begin in July when the Coaches require it. What about the other 7 months? Hmmmmmm
Time to set it straight. I’ve watched Coaches “require” their Football players to train with the team, yet 99.9% of these Coaches have NO expertise in proper, effective and SAFE strength & conditioning. I’ve watches these Football players being forced to perform deadlifts and power cleans, heavier and heavier, with horrific and dangerous technique.
Power Cleans that look like strange jumping jacks and deadlifts that turn a kid’s back into a banana shaped catastrophe.
I question the parent who allows this to happen and I question the Coach who requires this type of ineffective, dangerous, catastrophic training.
In the end, the athlete gets hurt because he is not put in a position where he can achieve his potential as well as being at GREAT risk for injury.
Food for thought.
In Strength,

Travis Woods of Edison began training at The ORIGINAL Underground Strength Gym, the 2 car garage in the heights of Edison. He weighed 160 lbs and couldn’t deadlift more than 185 lbs without rounding his back.
He was off on his own, forced to deadlift light weights over and over until he developed the requisite strength to go heavier. Motivating him on the other side of the garage were some of the original Underground athletes, also Football players from Edison: Brian “Curls” Pascal and Jimmy “Coop” Cooper – 2 of the strongest dudes to ever go through the Underground, both with trap bar deadlifts over 600 lbs.
Recently, T Woods made a memorable appearance in the Snapple Bowl, memorable for the Coaches and memorable for the players, especially those that stood in his way. Check out this write up The Home News Tribune did on T Woods, and, check out some OLDER pics below when t Woods was a skinny kid and how he transformed himself.
Any Division 1 Football Coaches who wanna connect with T Woods don’t hesitate to shoot an e mail my way and I will pass on the good word! haha
T Woods competing in first ever LIFT STRONG fundraiser!
As you can see from the videos above, T Woods has come a LOOONG way, but, he put in ALL the hard work, the commitment to training and nutrition AND the dedication that others simply are NOT willing to do.
That IS the difference maker. What are YOU willing to go through that your competition will NOT go through?
