Underground Strength Highlight Video
ByThis past weekend I headed to Dirty Jerzey for the Underground meets Powerlifting Seminar.
Arrived at about 4:15pm and headed straight to the Underground Gym with Zach. On our way there we saw a guy driving backwards on the freeway, i thought it was pretty crazy but Zach assured me shit like that goes on everyday in NJ.
Get to the gym and his athletes are already going through their warm-up, they were not sitting around waiting for him or talking about mindless crap they did the night before. Nope they were bustin ass.
We had planned a strength gathering Friday night for anyone who was attending the sat seminar and invited the Diesel Crew and any undergroungstrengthcoach.com members. As soon as the athletes were done shit got crazy.
Some highlights include a dip contest with chains, I think I was the only one to hit 12 chains with Zach, Smitty and a few others maxing out at 10. Lots of grip contests going on as well which Jedd Johnson destroyed everyone on.
Pretty much a bunch of testosterone filled dudes competing on anything and everything we could come up with.
Here’s some highlight video that Joe Hashey from Synergy Athletics took of the event.

What’s great about these things is although I was there to give a seminar I actually learned a ton of stuff myself just from the various conversations I had. This is the sort of stuff that can’t be taught from books
