Great News

The gym is looking great thanks to my dad and his crew. They have put a ton of time into it. Dad, I really appreciate it. It's a big space and there are going to be a lot of victories in there. I have already trained a handful of people there and they love it.

It has been my dream to have my own home gym and I am so grateful that my dream has finally happened! Boot Camp is only a week away. I can't wait. If you haven't checked out the page, do so now at www.newjerseybootcamps.com. Some of you have asked where we will be training. We will be doing a lot of training outside but also at my house.

Have a great start to the week!

Cranford New Jersey Personal Trainer Josh Mandel

I was training Ethan Krell today at my house in Cranford. Since the gym is still under construction, I decided to have him do some jumps onto the gym flooring outside. Make sure to watch the whole video.

Cranford New Jersey Personal Trainer

One thing I am realizing is that rest is extremely important. Yesterday's workout at my house in Cranford was intense. I decided to take today off from working out so my body can fully recover. Tomorrow, I'll be ready to go right back at it. Make sure you take the time to allow your body to recover. Don't forget, Boot Camp will be starting October 6th. The first 5 people to register will be receiving a special bonus. The page will be up shortly so you can register.

Have a great night!

Crazy!

Today was crazy. I am actually too spent to upload the videos from today. We ended up only doing the 300 workout. Actually, that's not true. We did the 300 workout. It took me about 20 minutes to recover. My arms and legs were actually shaking when I was done. I have to plug Excel Gel. I didn't think I was going to be able to do anything else after the 300 was done. I took an Excel Gel and 5 minutes later started to feel like myself again. We ended up doing some kettlebell circuits and crazy band work. The gym is really starting to come along. We are so happy to finally be settled in our Cranford New Jersey home. The projected start date for bootcamp will be Monday, October 6th, at 6 a.m. The new bootcamp website will be up and running in about 2 days. You will be able to register there. Any questions, feel free to contact me. Have a great start to the week!

Fitness Biz Boot Camp

I just got back from a fitness biz Boot Camp. It was awesome! I got a chance to meet and learn from the top fitness professionals in the world. I am pretty excited about something else also. At least, I am excited right now. My good friend and fellow personal trainer Greg Smith came to town for the boot camp. In honor of him coming to NJ from Ohio for the weekend, myself, along with 5 other guys are going to do a crazy workout tomorrow.

As of right now, it has 3 parts.

  1. 300 workout (crazy just by itself)
  2. Tire Flips (also ridiculously hard by itself)
  3. Log Flips (the last log we used snapped on us so hopefully we can find another one)

Rachael is going to be doing most of the camerawork tomorrow. You'll get a chance to see us at our best and by the end of the workout at our worst.

Should be fun. Better get to bed. We are going to need the rest!
