A funny read.
Wow, I haven’t heard Matt Furey’s name in a few years. That’s probably why this new “program” is being released.
The sad thing is, he’s probably a millionaire by now. It’s not sad from his point of view obviously, but all he has done is compile a lot of information that anybody could find on the web, and sells it to people too lazy to look it up.
Which makes a kind of twisted sense, because if they weren’t lazy, they wouldn’t fall for his ploy…
I have a grudging respect for him because he was savvy enough to exploit the ignorance of Joe couch potato, but I’m sure a few of them have turned up here to regurgitate his sales pitch as fact.
Having said that , his hyperbole is annoying and excessive - if you told him to fix his cauliflower ears he’d probably tell you they were cruciferous ears. But then, hyperbole does make for good business.
hmm i followed his stuff for a while back when i was 15 or something ?
i actually think it worked pretty well ?
but i just looked up the exercises on the interwebz !
and also he sent me an email that he once was flying with Paris hilton and john travolta in his private plane and for no obvious reason they went to this aligator/snake pit and due to paris betting him a BJ he should wrestle an aligator in mud filled with snakes
because he was so strong he of course could easily beat the aligator… but the snakes were a bitch cause he had to flex his traps all the time and because of his exercises they were so hard that the snakes venom couldnt enter his muscle but what shot directly back into the snake !!
And im not kidding ! he fucking wrote that !
and it was also at that time i stopped doing his program and found T-Nation !! happy days !
Matt furey now has an alter ego, Matthew Furey who rarely comments on training but pretty much anything else is fair game
Not to be confused with his original persona, Matt Furey
Some friend sof mine who crashed his gatherings for fun claimed he actually takes a break in between his er…seminar saying “Now you will listen to MATTHEW Furey for a while”, disappears to change his getup, don a fake mustache and return as Matthew Furey to amuse and entertain his audience.

Sometimes in my darker periods, I feel like maybe I’m losing my marbles. Mundane little things get on my nerves, there are more bills than money, all of the usual stuff.
Then I clicked on that link.
HOOO-LEEEEY SHIT!
That guy is a fucking lunatic.
I swear that seeing him rant about using a knife on eggs as if it were symbolic of some form of social control or manipulation has done wonders for me.
I will never again be riddled with doubt for my sanity.
Thanks Matt!
“Mr. Furey, what you have just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul”
They have a cartoon edition of Combat Conditioning out.
I couldn’t decide whether to laugh or cry, so I did both.
Cartoon edition? I can see that:
Here’s the LIVE version of Matt furey
And here’s the cartoon version
Doesn’t really look like him too much
