80/20ing the 80/20...

But after developing it, I noticed some sticking points in it that stopped some people from doing it.

While it was mostly bodyweight exercise, it wasn’t fully. Also many people didn’t have the bar or other setup for pullups.

While streamlined, there’s still a good amount to understand before starting. The guide book is 68 pages.

So I thought I could do it all again. The 80/20 Principle is exponential, by that I mean I could strip it down further. Basically just 4% of the effort for 64% of the results.

Introducing…

The Bare Bones Bodyweight Training Program

This requires absolutely zero equipment. (There are a few spots where common items like a chair may be used, but nothing besides the floor and your body is necessary.)

It utilizes three exercises, ones you’re probably already familiar with…

Pushups

Most people make one critical form mistake in doing these...

Bodyweight Squats

Unfortunately, most people can't do a full range of motion here, but with proper training it can be regained.

Plank

Most people can move beyond this basic plank pretty easily.

There are regressions and progressions with all these from total newbie to elite athlete for each of these.

Once again, it is quick workouts, typically ten to fifteen minutes, that build not just strength, but endurance, and even flexibility too.

The Keys of Progression

The trick to any training program is that it must be progressive.

Inside the Bare Bones Bodyweight Training Program you’ll find four different progressive methods used, but in a simple and easy format.

This program like my others is built to help you understand HOW to progress.

Don’t let its simplicity fool you. This is the sort of training with which I built my foundation of fitness many years ago.

In one hour of video and 12 pages of written material you'll discover:

• The arm position trick that most people get wrong on pushups, and how it can damage your shoulders.
• Three regressions (easier exercises) and three progressions (harder exercises) of the regular pushup.
• Why fist pushups make pushups both easier and harder (probably not what you think).
• A two dimensional instead of one dimensional pushup variation that has fixed many shoulder injuries.
• Breathing in squats, why some may want to do it one way and others the exact opposite.
• When to go bodyweight only for squats, and when to use weights.
• Key differences in ball of foot squats and flat footed squats.
• Most people can easily do the plank. Here are five regressions up to highly elite.
• How to build hand strength with bodyweight exercises, and actually without adding any new exercises or sets to your workout.
• Why beginners and advanced trainees might do the same amount of sets, while intermediate trainees will do more.
• Simple benchmarks of ability to shoot for for pushups, squats and planks.
• Four ways to track your progression in Bare Bones Bodyweight Training.
• The goals to shoot for from rank beginner to elite athlete.
• Why this program works well for high stress loads and/or travel.
• How this program is built with modularity in mind and thus can easily be combined with other forms of training.
• And more.

Who is this For?

If you’re a longtime customer of mine, this may not be a good fit for you. In many cases, you’ll be “beyond” this program with my many other programs.

That being said, I currently am using this program when I travel and am away from my normal gym setup, so it does have its uses.

And as with almost everything I teach it is scalable to all levels. So you can take the “template” and use exercises like handstand pushups and pistol squats.

Yet, this is geared more towards someone just starting out…or coming back from a layoff.

This brand new program is currently only available for Vital Force Guild members.

What is Vital Force?

Vital force is that immaterial thing that is the difference between life and death.

The flow of vital force is why a child has endless energy while you may struggle to stay awake after lunch.

The flow of vital force is why some 70 year old’s are still in the vibrancy of life, while others shuffle around like zombies.

The flow of vital force is why I’ve been crafting this new program for you…despite going through an extraordinarily difficult time in my life with my family!

You might call it Qi. You might call it Prana. You might even look at it through a scientific frame like Sheldrake’s morphogenetic field, or dive into the light-emitting capacity of DNA.

The important thing for now is to realize there are methods that essentially turn the spigot on a hose to increase the flow of vital force in your life.

It’s almost that simple. Such practices that amp up your flow of vitality are what the Vital Force Guild is all about.

So powerful that you won't be able to help yourself from building up your vital force as part of the guild.

In addition to strongmen and herbalists, I fairly regularly interact with shamans, energy workers, doctors, hypnotists and more. All of these viewpoints are useful for your vitality. All will be brought to you inside the Guild...

The Guild’s Craft is Health and Fitness

Guilds, of various sorts, were a big part of how medieval society operated. Many guilds would focus on a specific trade such as blacksmithing, baking, or brewing.

Our guild’s craft is health and fitness, on enhancing the vital force. 

And I truly intend for this to be guild-like in its operation. I’m the guild master and you’re the apprentice. With work and dedication you’ll be promoted to journeyman level…and maybe eventually master in your own right.

Every month will have new ways to earn Journeyman Badges to help refine your skills and meta-skills.

It’s not just about spreading knowledge, but building fellowship to together practice honing our craft. Learning from each other's successes and failures.

While the guild is founded now, like a living being it will evolve over time.

What Your Guild Apprenticeship Contains

The Vital Force Guild Monthly Video/Audio Training plus Newsletter shipped to your door Every Month ($58 value)

My latest and greatest information and experiments distilled down to videos and a newsletter each month. I’m always researching and experimenting with myself. Some of this yields great results and this is where I’ll be sharing it all.

Sometimes this may be more on the physical level of training, including specific modular programs for your fitness. 

Other times it may relate more to improving your health and vitality through a wide variety of the hundreds of health modalities available. 

Very often are times where the energetic or mental side involved. Some issues will be a deep dive on a single topic, coming about it through all lenses. Others will be a smorgasbord of strategies and tactics.

Not every monthly training will be life-transforming for you. The way I see it is that my aim is that just two to four of them per year delivers a big difference to you and your health and fitness. The others may just be “okay” for you and your situation (perhaps something you hang onto later for when you’re ready or you need it).

There’s something special about receiving something in the mail in today's digital age so this newsletter will be sent to your house. You'll want to rip open the envelope and devour it right then and there.

All the other parts will be found online in the membership portal where you’ll find access to the videos training inside, a PDF version of the newsletter and more.

You’ll gain instant access as soon as you sign up.

The Vital Force Guild Telegram Group ($49 value)

This is a private member's only group, not open to the public. It includes both a broadcast channel as well as a place to post questions, get feedback, chat with other guild members, and more.

I’ve chosen Telegram for its ease of use, and lack of censorship compared to other places (because we will be talking about "taboo" topics). This free app can be used on any computer or smartphone.

Use of this location is near critical to honing your craft. (If you absolutely won’t use Telegram, because you don't use social media which I understand and acknowledge, there is a workaround I’ll offer.)

The Vital Force Guild Group Coaching Call ($79 value)

Once a month I’ll hop on Zoom live with members to answer any and all questions, give feedback, share my latest experiments and more with the guild members.

These are built with the “Ready, Fire, Aim” philosophy in mind to help you get the best results. To get you ready when you are not. To get you into right action. And to course-correct along the way.

Right now the plan is to rotate the time and dates for this so that different people may be able to join at different times.

I regularly charge $250/hour for one-on-one work with me at this time, so ten minutes focused on you and your challenges can be worth more than the price of the entire program.

No worries if you can’t attend live, you can send in your questions ahead of time as well as watch the recording later, as they’ll be posted to the member’s site.

While getting your questions answered is great, you'll also learn so much from hearing about what other members are going through and focused on too.

No stone is left unturned! While the focus is vital force, this touches on each and every part of life. Therefore, you can ask anything and everything here. 

This coaching is aimed at best helping you guide your apprenticeship towards vital force mastery.

Additional Bonuses from Time to Time ($??? value)

I’ve already got some tricks up my sleeve planned for some special extras that I’ll gift to guild members from time to time. 

Some bonuses will be gifted out to all guild members. 

Others will be earned in various “Guild Games”...

Your Monthly Guild Tribute

The total value of the program for one year is at least $2232.

For each month at least $186 in value. But you won’t have to pay that much.

The initial dues for your guild membership are just…

$49.95 per month

or

$499 per year

For those that know this is the right step for them, you can signup for a year at a time, basically paying for ten months and getting two months free, for…

For those that need a more modest payment program, you can make your monthly tribute.

With this I’m asking for a minimum of three months commitment because true transformation takes more than a month. By signing up, you agree to this commitment.

As soon as you sign up today, you’ll get access to the Bare Bones Bodyweight Training Program...
