Introduction
===========
After announcing the release of my new DVD Set “Situps From A to Z” my email inbox was poppin’ like popcorn in the microwave.
The number one question I received was, “Can we see a preview of the DVD?”

So here’s my answer to that question.

My name if Rhadi Ferguson. I am a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist, I hold a Ph.D. in Education, I wrote my dissertation on training in an unstable training environment utilizing an upper body protocol that I co-developed. I have over 30 DVDs in the marketplace, over 100 videos on Youtube and Facebook and have more pages on Google than I care to count. A simple Google search will tell you who I am and what I do.

In furtherance, the initial release of this DVD is NOT for the tire-kickers or the people that I have to convince when it comes to the quality of my products and the information which I provide. Those individuals can pay the regular $54.95 offering price and view the video preview and trailers at that time.

As for right now, I’m dealing with the people who know my work, are familiar with the impact that I’ve made in the fitness and sports performance training world and are interested in what Dr. Ferguson is doing next.
So to answer succinctly, “No. There will not be a preview for this DVD until it is offered for $54.95. However, on the 10th of November it will be offered for a sweet price of $0.00 for the ones that act fast and understand the benefits of doing so.”
That’s right $0.00 You pay nothing for the DVD set.

===========
Well, what’s in
The DVD?
===========

If you really want to know what’s the DVD is all about, just wait a couple more days and I’ll give you the website where you can read all about it.

I promise you I’ll let you know EXACTLY what you’re getting yourself into and what it is that you’re getting.

===========
Closing
===========

Very soon you will be able to get your hands on the DVD that literally changed the game for me as a strength and conditioning coach. If you’ve never seen the abs of some of the players that I’ve coached let me tell you what they look like. They look like abs of steel!!! Plain and simple. And now you are going to learn the EXACT exercises that I use and that you can use to in order to get your midsection tight, firm and sexilicious! (…and functional too)

I just wanted to say “thank you” for reading my emails and my newsletters.

I understand that your time is limited and precious and when you can spare a minute or two to read what I’m sending you, I am truly grateful and to show you how much I want to give you the first dibs on my DVD coming on the 10th of November “Situps

From A to Z”.
I’m going to give you the chance to get it for phree!!
That’s right PHREE.

I am very excited about the release of this DVD and I want to let you know that this DVD will cover the exercises that I do with my general population clients all the way up to those that I train who are professional athletes.

The “Situps From A to Z” DVD Set will show you:

- The Right Moves To Get Strong and Ripped

This new DVD is not a DVD full of boring @$$ crunches and plain ole vanilla situps. This is the abdominal DVD of century.
If  you get this DVD and are not satisfied, I’ll buy it back from you. That’s how confident I am in this DVD.
So keep your eyes and ears open for my brand new DVD. “Situps From A to Z”
The regular price of the 2 Disc DVD Set “Situps from A to Z” will be $54.95, but on the 10th of November, until the 17th of  November, I’m letting it go for only F.-R-.-E-.E.

That’s it.

Take care and I’ll *see* you on November 10th.

I have some phenomenal information
for you.

==============
First
(phree training manual)
==============

First, I’ve really been doing a
lot of studying and am learning
a great deal from Arthur Lydiyard.

If you’ve never done any research
on him and you train, coach or train
yourself, I would highly suggest that
you check him out.

His training philosophies are sound
and profound. As a matter of fact,
I’ve learned a lot from him over
the years.

Don’t get caught up in the sport
and it being about running. Really
read about his take on aerobic and
anaerobic conditioning. Very interesting.
I printed it out and filed it.

If you have not gotten your
Free video preview of “Pushups From
A to Z” you MUST do so immediately at

Thirdly
==============

For those of you that don’t know,
I attended the Mixed Martial
Arts World Expo in October of 2009
It was fantastic.

I did a great interview with Eddie Goldman
and so did 1984 Olympic Gold Medallist
Mark Schultz. I believe you’ll love this.

As I get older, I find that my mind still wants to do the things that my body can no longer do.  I watched Bill Cosby on Jay Leno last night and during his standup set he said, “As you get older, thing that are supposed to be soft get hard and thing that should get hard, just stay soft.”  The crowd erupted in laughter and quite frankly I thought it was funny too.

But the reality of it was disheatening.  It’s true, as you get older, thing get a little bit stiffer, tighter and flexibility decreases. As a grappler, one that participates in BJJ, Judo, wrestling, or MMA, you need to know how to stay fit and keep yourself feeling “young” so that you can train with the youngsters.

Here’s 5 tips to help you do just that.

Tip #1
====================
More Driling. Less Rolling
====================

“More Drilling and Less Rolling” is BJJ talk for more drilling and less going “live”.  So often we want to go hard and just drill a little bit and start training.

Well, progress is gained through repetition and repetition is the currency that one must pay to become a champion.  As you get older, you have to increase the amount of practices where you just drill for 30 minutes to 60 minutes and get a quality sweat and a good practice in so that you can be sharper when its time for you to go “live”.

Tip #2
=====================
More Off The Mat Workout
=====================

That’s right. Increase your Off The Mat Workouts. Drill more, and then get off the mat and in the gym or the pool or a spinning class or a yoga class or a combination of those and/or something else active.  This will increase your fitness level and strength levels while creating a larger base for you to drill more and even harder and you will be able to improve without increasing the propensity for injury by increasing your amount of  “live” sessions.

Tip #3
=====================
Treat Yourself Like A Car
In The Winter And….Warmup
=====================

If you live in a place where it gets cold, you understand the importance of going out and warming up the car before driving it.  Well, don’t treat a machine better than you treat your own body. Allow yourself the opportunity to warm up as well. Before engaging in any activities, make sure you get a good lather of sweat built up and also make sure the body’s core temperature is warm. This will allow your ligaments and tendons to gain some much needed pliability as you begin your dynamic flexibility protocol. (uh-oh…. you don’t have one?  Well that leads us into Tip #4)

Tip #4
=======================
Make Sure You Have A Solid
Warmup Protocol (one that
has dynamic flexibility movements
=======================

There’s nothing like have a set warmup protocol that you can go to. It puts your mind at ease and let you know that when you are done warming up - YOU WILL be warm. Also it is important to make sure that you incorporate some dynamic flexibility.  Static stretching most certainly has its place in the spectrum of readiness, preparedness and cooling down, but there is nothing as beneficial as dynamic stretching before working out or competing.

Tip #5
=========
Compete
=========

That’s right.

Keep your competitive juices flowing by doing things like 5Ks, 10Ks, Masters grappling competitions, swimming meets, indoor rowing competitions.  Do it all. Don’t worry about being first. Be concerned with competing well, controlling your emotions and exploring new crosstraining opportunities.

================
Closing
================

That’s it. Take care. Enjoy and Happy Training.

I don’t know if you’ve heard this yet, but
I wanted to share it with you.

Whether you work with athletes or general fitness
clients, you’ve probably heard of Mike Boyle.

If you haven’t, he’s one of the most experienced
and successful strength and conditioning
coaches in the world.

I won’t try to cover everything he’s achieved
over the past 25 years of coaching, but believe
me, he’s good!

Well he just did an interview with another
elite coach, Alwyn Cosgrove, that he’s calling
the ‘State of the Strength and Conditioning
Industry’.

In the interview he gives his take on everything
from how to spot good trainers and bad trainers,
the role kettlebells, bands and equipment should
play in your coaching, why the best trainers
are the ones who change their programs more
often and the good, the bad and the ugly side
of marketing.

You might not agree with everything he says,
but if you’re a coach or trainer this is
something you simply *have* to hear.

==================

You all know that I’m a big proponent of doing Pushups and various other exercises that give you a big bang

for your buck.

Now you will REALLY understand why I’m a big proponent

of such exercises. Not only because they’re inexpensive,

not only because they engage more muscle groups,

but most of all because its SAFE!!!

Sometimes the risk of a big huge bench, just isn’t worth the

reward.

Case in point…

Recently, a running back from USC was doing a bench

press workout and unfortunately the bar slipped from his

hand and crushed his neck and larynx.

The doctors say that he could have most certainly died.

He’s now in stable condition in the hospital, but still cannot

speak.

I know some of you are going to think that this is a freak

accident, but if you have children, any accident, freak or not

is too frequent and too risky.

Can you imagine how his mother’s heart dropped to the pit

of her stomach when she got the call about this accident?

Lawd-a-mercy! I couldn’t even imagine such a thing!

My wife and I immediately began to pray for this young man and his family when we heard this news.

I’m emailing you so that you can understand that safety is the

key.

As a strength and conditioning professional, if I can possibly

prevent this or at least reduce the incidence of this happening

to you because you are now mixing more pushups into your workout

or different chest exercises, then I feel that this email has been

a success.

And remember, don’t ever say something cannot happen to you.

The reason why people call things “accidents” is because they

never planned for them to happen.

Please read this article and if you are a praying person. Please

pray for this young man’s recovery

Read this please!!
