Old Spartan Fitness

Are you carrying a little extra flab around your middle?

Is it really starting to bug you, needing to suck in your gut just to tie your shoes?

Your energy always seems to be low. You're trying to live life at full-speed but the gas tank is always empty.

You need a plan, a workout plan.

No hype, faddish crap or 90 minute long training ideas need apply.

You want the real deal and have no intention of spending half your life training.

This plan is for you if:

• You want a proven system that will get results when you put in the effort
• You want to train your full body and recapture full range of motion movement
• You want to get it done quickly training no more than 95 minutes a week
• You want to lose your gut and build a muscular body
• You want to shed decades off your face and body

How does it work?

• You keep it simple. Always a good rule.
• You focus on strength building.
• You perform the 5 Human Movements.
• You embrace consistency.

Why focus on strength building?

Strength solves all problems.

Whether you're trying to lose fat, build muscle, increase energy levels or re-hab a sore lower back, an effective strength-based training program is your best vehicle.

What are the 5 Human Movements?

1. Push as in vertical or horizontal upper body pushing.
2. Pull as in vertical or horizontal upper body pulling.
3. Hinge as in the hip-hinge or bending over at the waist and standing back up.
4. Squat as in squatting down and standing back up.
5. Carry as in walking while carrying a load.

Why do the 5 Human Movements?

Because you are a human and trying to be a better one. Move like one.

This is movement for life.

• Vertical pushing is like storing a box of clothing on an overhead shelf.
• Horizontal pulling is like pulling the washing machine out away from the wall to clean out all the crap that has accumulated behind it.
• The hip hinge is bending over and picking something up off the ground.
• The squat is getting down to pull some weeds out of your garden and then standing back up.
• The carry is picking up your grand daughter and walking across the street with her.

This is training for real life.
