Just want to say thanks to all the guys (and girls!) who made the effort to join us in Orlando last weekend. I trust you really enjoyed and benefited, which after listening to all the speakers, I am sure you did!
I believe I speak for all the T-mag staff and writers when I say that it was really important for us to reward those who showed the balls and committement to attend the first show.
I also want to thank Jeff, Billy and Dee for their work in putting it together, and the other speakers for sharing their time, knowledge and passion for their subjects! It was great listening to you!
But most importantly - to those who attended - hope you had a great time and look forward to doing it all again, bigger and better, in October!
Ian, it was a pleasure to meet you and speak with you. I can’t thank you enough for showing me how to properly execute some of the basic exercises. I truly appreciate you taking the time to correct my form. And yes, I’ll keep the power cleans out of my workout until I can do them properly!
Also, your lecture on prioritization helped me realize what muscle imbalances I have. I now realize how to design my workout program to address these areas.
The seminar was worth more than I paid to get the hands on approach you offered. Thanks again! - Nate Dogg
I wanted to say thanks to you as well Ian. I thought the lecture and hands on training were freaking phenomenal! Today I went in the gym and started stretching longer then I normally do and it felt great. I also just took the bar and worked on my form on squats and deadlifts. Since that wasn’t high intensity, I finished it off with king deadlifts and that was very hard.
Thanks for the posture tips, as I am now sitting and walking with my shoulders back. Believe me, I do not want to be on that operating table.
I hope to see you again when I am BIGGER and STRONGER.
To all of those who missed NHB. You really need to attend the next one. It was so awesome listening to all of the speakers. Hope to see more people at the next one, as I am already making plans on going
Mr.King, Although I had read your articles on T-Mag, I had never really paid attention to what you had to say. I mean, I have read what Poliquin, Hatfield, etc. have to say, why bother reading one more opinion? Well, the NHB Seminar opened my eyes to you and what you had to say. After hearing you spreak on the first day, I decided to purchase your book as soon as I returned home. The stretching was intense and I will be in the 10% when it comes to applying all that I learned from you. Thank you for making the long trip to educate us Americans.
Ian, listening to your lectures and watching you coach was an incredible experience that I shall not forget. If I had only met you earlier in my athletic caree I would have avoided many injuries, my training would have been differant and my progress may have helped me achieve the next level. But this is the past. The question is what I shall do in the future. I have already taken steps to achievingh my goal by purchasing your flexibility tapes and injury prevention tapes. The two tapes I believe are critical for any athlete or weight lifter. My goal is to purchase the rest of your tapes and master your training philosophies. I will then attend one of your boot camps hopefully you will have one in october. Take this knowledge and teach it to young atletes so they have the oppurtunity to advance in there athletic endeavors without fighting injuries from improper training. Best wishes to you and your family. By the way cant wait till your child performance book comes out, I have two kids of my own that I cant wait to start training
