 As I’m sure many of you have noticed, San Francisco 49’ers strength coach Duane Carlisle recently released a new product titled “Total Football Training.”  I actually wrote a preliminary blog about it last Friday, which I’ll link to below:

Total Football Training - An Early Review

As promised, I took the time to review the entire product over the past 4 days.  Below you’ll find the many things I liked about the product, as well as a few things I disliked.  Enjoy!

 

The Things I Liked

* The energy system training. 

It’s physically painful for me to see strength and/or football coaches who write in energy system training such as gassers, 400’s, and other heavily glycolytic training mediums like into the conditioning programs of football players.  It reminds me of the days when my high school basketball...

(Note from MR: This week and next I'm going to rehash some of my most popular newsletters to-date.  If you aren't already a subscriber, be sure to fill out the form on the right-hand side and get tons of free stuff!)

A few days ago, I reviewed a NY Times article which espoused the benefits of running on joint health.  If you'd like to see my entire write-up, I've provided the blog link below:

2010 Midwest Seminar Updates

2010 Midwest Performance Enhancement Seminar 2010 Midwest Performance Enhancement Seminar

As many of you already know, the early-bird registration for the 2010 Midwest Performance Enhancement Seminar is rapidly approaching.

In fact, I'm pretty some of you are purposely trying to spike my blood pressure by waiting until the last minute to sign-up!

Regardless, this is one of a few reminders I'm going to give you between now and the 24th - if you register on or before July 24th, you not only save $50 of the registration fee, but you'll also get access to a FREE one-day seminar on A-Z business training the day before the seminar!

Seriously everyone, this is a can't miss deal. Sign-up today and save yourself some cash, and me from an early heart attack!

One more note: Unfortunately, Brian Grasso will no longer be in attendance.  With Brian living in Canada now, it's harder for him to present and travel abroad...

The RTS Tweetchat

Tweetchat Tweetchat

Everyone -

As promised, tonight I'm going to do a live Tweetchat at 8 pm EST. 

In case you aren't sure about a Tweetchat, or how to get involved, here is a brief write-up that I posted before:

The Single-Leg Tweetchat

The Hashtag we're using for tonights event is: RTS1 (someone else was using RTS, and I don't speak French!)

Once you're registered and logged into the Tweetchat system, all you have to do is sit back, relax and chat away! I'm hoping to have some really good discussion, so be sure to stop by, even if it's only for a few minutes.

Take care and I'll see you tonight at 8 pm!

All the best

Mike
