Bubs Naturals Collagen Protein and the SmartShake Shaker make for a solid 1-2 punch

Pounding a protein shake after your workout is as American as apple pie, but just because something’s a tradition doesn’t mean you can’t shake it up a little. As opposed to the whey protein I grew up on, I recently made the change to Bubs Naturals Collagen Protein–a shift more and more people seem to […]

Using Strike Force Energy as a pre-workout supplement?

While there are already plenty of supplements on the market aimed at giving you a boost of energy to get your workout started, I approached the problem from a slightly different standpoint: I’m not a gel-haired bro looking for an edge before I get my pump on (though I could be accused of that from […]

E.A.R.N. – A simple but effective way of mastering your fitness regimen

In the pursuit of bettering one’s self from a physical standpoint, there are so many options available today. There is no “one size fits all” approach to fitness nor has there ever been. I’ve met people from all walks of life in peak physical condition; some of them do insane amounts of running, swimming, and […]

Old Man Fitness: Supplements that work and why they don’t for you

Old Man Fitness: Supplements that work and why they don’t for you

Ah, supplements — to the uninitiated, they seem like powdered steroids dispensed via that obnoxious shaker the religiously “fit” among us are always carrying around the office instead of a coffee cup. To the beginner, they offer the promise of expedited progress, or even progress you could never do without the aid of science and […]

Old Man Fitness: Tailoring your workout to your injuries

Old Man Fitness: Tailoring your workout to your injuries

As we get older, we tend to collect things. Piles of artifacts representing memories both lost and treasured, old receipts we think we may need, and that shirt you know you can’t pull off anymore but just can’t find it in yourself to part with all take their places in our lives and homes like […]

Old Man Fitness: How to earn your ‘black belt’ in fitness

Old Man Fitness: How to earn your ‘black belt’ in fitness

If you’ve ever taken the time to sit and read a bodybuilding magazine from cover to cover, you’ll likely come to a few interesting conclusions: the first is that advertising often tries really hard to pretend it’s expert analysis, and the second is that supposed experts in the fitness field often contradict one another, and even themselves, […]

Old Man Fitness: Superstition, fitness and the power of belief

Old Man Fitness: Superstition, fitness and the power of belief

The old adage, “there are no atheists in foxholes,” while maybe not universally true, speaks to the level of helplessness that’s inherent to our very being. No matter how hard you work, no matter how prepared you try to be, there comes a time when there’s nothing left to do but succeed or fail. There, […]

The mind-muscle connection (unplugging and escaping through exercise)

The mind-muscle connection (unplugging and escaping through exercise)

Preface: Many of you know me as the producer and a host on SOFREP Radio, and on an episode with Alex Hollings talking his “Old Man Fitness” series I tapped into my philosophy on working out as a way to unplug and escape from the monotony of our day to day living routine. I can’t really take […]

Old Man Fitness: How to keep making progress when lifting alone

Old Man Fitness: How to keep making progress when lifting alone

For lots of people, fitness is a social endeavor. They go to the gym with the intention of both improving themselves and catching up with friends, and for many, it’s that social interaction (and peer pressure) that helps keep them coming back. The social element of fitness can be a powerful one, serving as the […]

A Superheroes Workout, The Arrow

A Superheroes Workout, The Arrow

We’re going to take a slightly different approach to this workout article. Instead of highlighting one of the Loadout Room writers routines, we’re going to look at what Stephan Amell did to prepare for his role as Oliver Queen in The Arrow. Now I’m not one to get all into the superheroes like I was as […]
