A No B.S. Guide to Developing Real Confidence

August 1, 2015 by Chad Howse 1 Comment

I remember my last fight vividly. I was at ease. I’d taken the fight on short notice with a kid that had come up from Oregon or somewhere along the coastal U.S. of A., and even though I found out he was a southpaw only minutes before the fight, I was at ease. There was […]

Grit & Gameness: How to Be Good at Being a Man

July 9, 2015 by Chad Howse 3 Comments

It seems that our society is hell bent on teaching goodness and equality and fairness without putting much thought into the values and virtues that make greatness. Rewarding based on participation rather than merit does more damage than good. Creating an artificial, level playing field removes initiative and reward for going above and beyond. Trying […]

Something Worth Fighting For: the Virtues That Won Independence

July 3, 2015 by Chad Howse 5 Comments

“Over-sentimentality, over-softness, in fact washiness and mushiness are the great dangers of this age and of this people. Unless we keep the barbarian virtues, gaining the civilized ones will be of little avail.” – Theodore Roosevelt Today is the day that Americans celebrate their independence from tyranny. It’s a day not only to celebrate what […]

The Pussification of the West

July 3, 2015 by Chad Howse 47 Comments

While there is debate as to whether or not our modern society is “better” than those in the past, there’s little debate that our society is weaker. Our weakness shows in our entitled view of how the world works with us at its center. It’s seen in our seeming inability to recognize that evil exists […]

You’re Wasting Your Workouts by Not Eating This Much Protein

June 22, 2015 by Chad Howse 6 Comments

Without hard work you’re not going to do much of anything in this world. Laziness is inherently evil because it wastes the talents and potential and the capacity for goodness and greatness that you have. It’s this notion of “wasting” potential by not applying ourselves that we must also apply to our training. Assuming you […]

No, You Are Not Perfect Just the Way You Are

June 4, 2015 by Chad Howse 1 Comment

No, you are not perfect just the way you are, nor are you special, though you are unique. To be perfect how we are would nullify the need for improvement, and improvement is necessary. To be special would be to place ourselves above the masses, when it’s humility that will allow you to learn. What […]

Why You Don’t Need a Mentor

April 21, 2015 by Chad Howse 7 Comments

I get a fair number of emails asking amount finding the right mentor; fellas asking if I can tell them how to get a mentor or if I can in some way mentor them, it’s after reading the question that I break the news that I’ve never really had a real, solid mentor before, just […]

Are You The Strong Man or The Critic?

April 10, 2015 by Chad Howse 8 Comments

In Theodore Roosevelt’s “The Man in the Arena” speech, he talks about “the critic”, the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, but is he addressing the critic or the strong man, the “doer of deeds”, or is it both? Many a year ago now while I was in high school, admittedly only […]

Your Life is Won In Battles That Last But Seconds

April 2, 2015 by Chad Howse 3 Comments

I’m still seated as a long day nears its end. My eyes are fixed on my computer’s screen, having only moments ago finished my newsletter, I check that off my to do list and start to stand up. It’s then, just as I’m about to proclaim the day a success, my adversaries defeated, both laziness […]

If You Want to Be Successful, Never Look Forward

March 31, 2015 by Chad Howse 12 Comments

I light my cigar, one of the few remaining from the batch I brought back from a recent trip to Argentina, and take a sip of cognac. It’s been a long week in hours worked but it seemed like it lasted only a few days. I had my head down all week, working, writing, and […]

Find Trouble

March 25, 2015 by Chad Howse 3 Comments

The other day I was on the phone with a pal of mine. We were talking about work, we both run our own businesses, and also adventure. We talked about the past year, the places we’d each been. I’d traveled throughout Argentina and Italy and a handful of other places. I’d hiked glaciers and rode […]

The Most Important Days to Train…

March 20, 2015 by Chad Howse 6 Comments

It’s been a lethargic day. For the past week I’ve been toying with a sickness that would neither fully take hold nor completely go away. My bed times have been earlier, I’ve spread out my training a bit more and it appears that I’ve finally beat the bastard. And then today happened. There are no sniffles, […]

How to Create Your Own Strength Program

March 14, 2015 by Chad Howse 10 Comments

When it comes to building strength, there are countless approaches that can get the job done. 10 years ago, if you were to talk to 10 powerlifters about what type of training they follow, you were likely to get 10 different answers. But walk into a powerlifting gym today and ask 10 powerlifters about what […]

Manliness Was Once Our Greatest Virtue

March 5, 2015 by Chad Howse 3 Comments

There are three books next to me on my desk and all three are written by or about great, wise men. Reading through each, I notice a consistent referral to a virtue that’s no longer spoken of in our society, or at least not as openly or as freely as it has been throughout human […]

The Event Doesn’t Matter. Your Reaction to it Does.

February 27, 2015 by Chad Howse 8 Comments

We are all given a hand in life, a set of cards that we have to play. Some hands are perceived to be better than others while others seem nearly impossible to rise from. The reality is that the hand you’re given matters little, your reaction to it is everything. Your reaction to failure can […]
