Westside and Metal Militia Training Seminar

[spatts]

I'm trying to get a group together for this. Bob Youngs and John Bott will be hosting a seminar Saturday on squat technique, and then there's the MM seminar on Sunday, as well as deadlift training with Bob and John...all three lifts covered by the best.

So far, Ironlion and chica, myself, TheProject, Hannibal, VDOP and chica, Ish, Phreezer, and others are planning to make it.

It's cheapest to fly in to Philly, and the instructors/staff have been kind enough to help with transportation from the airport to the hotel.

I just returned from a MM seminar, as you know, and I can assure you this seminar is worth every penny. If you're going to spend money on equipment, gear, gym fees, supplements, etc...you may as well spend a few bucks learning the basics. All the extras in the world won't make up for poor technique. This is a great weekend to get your whole game together.

Bump for good learning. And because I just explained to a guy at work why CURLS will not help your BENCH.

 

[Scotsman]

Wish I could make it but barring a miracle there is just no way. Post up on what you learn in sept.

Cheers,

wait a minute, curls don't help your bench?

then how come I always see the big guys with the wife beaters doing bench and curls....huh?

 

[jerkbox]

open to anyone?

 

[WarriorPL]

When must the decision be made if youre coming or not? It's the week i start school so im not sure now if i can go. I would drive up and just find a hotel...

 

[spatts]

Yes! The more the better! If we get enough people coming from similar regions, we can dramatically cut costs, so everyone who wants to go can afford to.

 

[spatts]

_______ to Nazareth, PA

NYC 79 miles (just over an hour)

Columbus, OH 460 miles (about 7 hours)

Detroit 556 miles (about 8 hours)

Atlanta 806 miles (about 12 hours)

Chicago 739 miles (about 11 hours)

Kansas City 1100 miles (about 17 hours)

Miami 1270 miles (about 20 hours)


...anything past that, and you'll probably want to fly.

 

[jerkbox]

spatts, think it would be beneficial for someone like me who is not very versed in powerlifting?

 

[WarriorPL]

Wow only an hour drive from here? When i drove down there to look at colleges took me like 1.5 hours... NYC traffic sucks.
