Power Training by Robert dos Remedios

If you are looking for a new book to add to your reading list then make sure you check out the latest book to come out of the Men's Health stable. Power Training by Robert dos Remedios is a great book that provides real world solutions for strength and power development.



Dos is a great coach and I had the pleasure of watching him in action a couple of years ago whilst visiting his facility. Just for a change there is a book that has been written by someone that actually gets their hands dirty on the gym floor. Well done Dos.....you deserve it.....enjoy!

Real World Fat Loss Seminar

Welcome to my first post on Nick Grantham's Blog! We recently hosted Alwyn and Rachel Cosgrove in a one day seminar at our new training facility in Newcastle Upon Tyne. The seminar was a huge success and the feedback from delegates was absolutely fantastic. Alwyn kicked things off with a great talk on Real World Fat Loss, combining his unique style of real world experience with the latest research findings. Rachel followed on from Alwyn and provided an insightful overview of fat loss for females. The afternoon session was led by myself, looking at how to cut weight for weight category sports, before a superb practical session that left everyone hot and bothered! A great day and we are now looking forward to hosting Alwyn and Rachel in 2008.....along with a number of other top international speakers. Keep an eye on the blog for updates.

The great thing about hosting seminars is that you have the opportunity to listen to some great talks and meet lots of very interesting people....whilst picking up some useful hints and tips that I can use with my clients. I always manage to come away with something and Alwyn and Rachel certainly delivered several pieces of advice and information that I was able to implement straight away on Monday morning! My favourite tip - THE CRAB THEORY (thanks Rachel) - want to know what it is.......well you should have been at the seminar!!!! Only kidding - keep an eye on future blogs and all will be revealed.
