NEW WEBSITE!
Add Jason
Ferruggia Uncencored to your favorites!
Finding good training information on the net is
hard to do; so I wanted to share this new website with
my readers. For those of you who don’t know Jason
Ferruggia, he is a friend & colleague of mine. His
views on training are similar to what you would read
on my website, but you will always learn something new
and entertaining from Jason’s stuff. I have the
utmost respect for Jason because he actually trains athletes
for a living and he gets “real world” results.
If you want the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but
the truth about training, check out Jason’s blog
on a daily basis.
It’s what I read when I’m
not reading www.defrancostraining.com!

Q: Coach Defranco,
In honor of the holiday season I thought I
would send you in a fun question. It seems like this
is the time of year when every TV & radio show
has their top lists, i.e., the top 3 reality shows
of the year, the top 10 songs of the year, the most
exciting sporting event of the year, etc. So Coach
Defranco, I ask you, what are your 3 most memorable
questions that you have answered on your Q&A since
you started this website?
Have a great holiday season and thanks for
educating & entertaining us for all these years
coach!!

A: Dan,
Great question! To be honest, I’m glad I didn’t
get too many “thought-provoking” training
questions this week. I’ve been working around the
clock finishing my Super
Strength DVD and now that it’s FINALLY
done and ready to ship, I needed an easy week of questions.
Your question was a fun one and it was cool to look back
and take a trip down memory lane. So, without any further
ado, here are my 3 most memorable questions!
#3 – Coach DeFranco is a cheater?
#2 - The
infamous “not-so-silent Bob” accuses
DeFranco’s athletes of being on steroids!
#1 - George
DeFranco gets criticized for his hammer curl form!
Hope you enjoyed ‘em as much as I did answering
them!

Q: Joe,
A week ago I read an article on elitefts entitled A
Visit to DeFranco’s – that was some funny
shit! Who is that guy and what would I have to do to
come watch you train your athletes like he did? I live
in Virginia but would take the drive in a second if you
offer that opportunity.
Thanks and if you can’t get to my email,
I understand you’re busy.
Ralph
A: Ralph,
I agree, that was one of the funniest, most well-written,
clever articles I have ever read! (I should probably
be ashamed of some of the things that he wrote, but I
have pretty thick skin so I can take it!)
To make a long story short, the author of that article
is a New York City bouncer who started a blog about
3 years ago. In his blog, he basically talks about the
nightly nonsense that he has to endure as he works the
door at 2 of New York City’s most popular clubs.
Anyone who knows about NYC nightlife knows that the “nonsense” that
I’m referring to are the guido’s, whores, wannabees
and scumbags that frequent most “popular” NYC
clubs.
Much to my delight, “The Doorman” mentioned
my website in one of his blog entries in which he referred
to the type of training he prefers. Knowing that he was “one
of us”, I emailed him and after a couple of emails
back and forth I invited him to come watch me train some
pro athletes. (This is what motivated him to write the
article about my facility.)
Another interesting fact about “The Doorman” is
that his blog became so popular that HarperCollins signed
him to a book deal which should hit the stands shortly
after the holiday season. Support our own and check out
his blog and
look out for his upcoming book! It should contain some
funny shit!
As far as visitors to our facility…you may want
to read A
Visit to DeFranco’s first to see if
it’s something that would interest you. If anyone
would ever like to visit our facility, email me at joe-d@defrancostraining.com.
I will be honest and tell you that some times of the year
are just too busy and we can’t accommodate guests;
but for the most part we would welcome anyone with an open
mind that is willing to learn about our system of training.
The Darkside continues to grow…

Our very own Super
Strength DVD cover girl, Jenna Corrado, has been named
as a Top 10 finalist for GUESS? FACES TO WATCH model search. This
is just another example of why females should not be afraid to strength-train
and push themselves in the weight room! Jenna has trained hardcore
with us for over 3 years (box-squatting, benching, glute-ham raises,
etc.) and I think you will agree that she hasn’t become too “masculine”!
Please support her quest to become a new breed of model and take 30
seconds to vote for her HERE!
