4. Examine.com Turned 6-Years Old
And to celebrate they’re giving everyone a free sponge bath! Kidding.
However, they have reduced the price on everything on their site by 40% until midnight (3/17). I don’t feel there’s a huge need to be pitchy here. They’re the largest database (50,000+ references), they’re 100% independent, they’re trusted (2 million+ visitors/day), and they’re simply the best.
No ads, no consulting, no coaching – just an education company 🙂

Stuff to Read While You’re Pretending to Work
The 12 Best Ways to Build Shoulders – T-Nation
T-Nation asked a bunch of coaches how to put boulders on someone’s shoulders and I happened to be one of the coaches they asked.
Some great content and ideas in this one.
Conscious Coaching – Brett Bartholomew
We’re always quick to gravitate to the latest and greatest trends in the weight room without taking into consideration something more relevant: how to motivate our clients & athletes and meet them where they are…both psychologically and emotionally.
It’s not always about sets, reps, and PR’s.
Cool Factoid: Tom Hanks (yes, Forrest Gump) is going to be narrating the audio version of this book. Awesome.
A Comprehensive Guide to Preseason Baseball Training – Andy Haley (STACK.com)
You can’t squeeze an entire offseason of training into two weeks before the season starts. Don’t be that guy.
Social Media Shenanigans
Not my strongest week. Gotta pick up my game.
Easy” lifting is oftentimes GREAT strength training. Quit it with the (excessive) sets to failure and forced reps. Not missing reps matters
