First 5 Athletes to sign up receive FREE Secrets of Elite Sports Performance E-book.
1. Qualifications-anyone can call themselves a personal trainer or a coach. And some of the certifications only require a 2 day online internet course to become a personal trainer. I don’t know about you but as an athlete or a parent I wouldn’t feel comfortable having my son or daughters sports performance put in the hands of a person that has only completed a course that didn’t even administer a competency test. Heck some of these certifications allow you to keep repeating multiple answer questions and exams until you get it right! (more…)

Thanks to all the coaches and athletes that attended my Strength Speed and Power for Athletes Seminar in Melbourne. The response was overwhelming and we’ll back back soon. Unfortunately, the still camera shots from the seminar did not come out. The only photo that came out was this one of me at St Kilda footy club with Strength and Conditioning Coach Steven Tingay.
The perks of being a strength and conditioning specialist! I just spent 2 amazing weeks in Indonesia combining 2 of my passions-Strength and Conditioning and Surfing. I was fortuntate enough to be one of the keynote speakers for the Australian Professional Firefighters and Lifeguards Training conference located in Grajagan or G-land as its affectionately known. The waves were sensational and the conference amazing. Stay tuned for an article on how to physically prepare fireighters coming soon. Check out the pictures below.

I just got back from consulting with the New South Wales Institute of Sport (NSWIS). Its always good to talk shop and gain ideas from other coaches and experts in similar but different fields. I caught up with Brent Kirkbride NSWIS physio and discussed some new concepts in the quest to keep their elite swimmers injury free. Keep and eye out for the 7 secrets to staying injury free article soon. Check out some of the pictures below!
February 27th marked the inaugural In Joe We Trust How to Physically Prepare Elite Athletes Seminar. The seminar sold out 6 months in advance!

No I haven’t been Missing in Action…….I just got back from travelling through South America, consulting with South America’s fastest sprinter Kael Becerra. Kael is one of the most focussed athletes I have ever met. He has assembled an amazing entourage of experts around him and is constantly on the look out for new ways to maximise his performance. Rumour has it he will be travelling to Australia to train in THE PIT for a month. Look out for an article on some of the new techniques I have implemented with Kael in his quest to be the BEST IN THE WORLD!
Broc McCauley Rookie Listed to Brisbane Lions
Overlooked in the 4 previous AFL Drafts…..you’d have to wonder if you were talented enough to get drafted…..
But that was not enough to stop him from pursuing his dream…..
The sharks best and fairest, selected in the AFLQ team of the year…
He simply played and performed that good the selectors could no longer ignore him…..
For the second year in a row THE PIT produces another Drafted AFL Footballer….
From out of nowhere PIT Athlete, Bryce Retzlaff has been one of only two Queensland AFL footballers to be drafted.
He was picked up by the Brisbane Lions at pick number 84 in the 2009 draft.
His selection stunned most people, but really shouldn’t have.
Collingwood player Dayne Beams, told Bryce about THE PIT and said if you’re serious about your football and you want to be the best you can be, see Joey.
In my time working with Bryce his work ethic, willingness to push through pain and commitment to achieve his goals could never be questioned. (more…)
Congratulations to one of my colleagues and mates Dean Robinson the Strength and Conditioning Coach from the Geelong Footy Club.

Congratulations on the fruits of your labour to produce the fastest, strongest, most injury free footballers in Australia.
Congratulations to Queenslands James Cook University Rugby Union who raised the most money! You will be receiving $10,000.00 worth of In Joe We Trust Strength and Conditioning Resources Package and a Live Coaching Day! See you soon!
In Joe We Trust High Performance Training Feature Review in Muscle Mag Australia
August 2009 Muscle Mag Reviews the Heart Breaker.
This is what Muscle Mag reviewer DR Shane Rogerson had to say about the Heart Breaker:
There is also something kind of primal about gritting your teeth and pushing a big chunk or metal across the ground!
This is one of the best pieces of equipment I have come across!
This is a hardcore piece of training equipment and can floor even the most seasoned athlete!

Collingwood Star AFL player and former In Joe We Trust athlete Dayne Beams is in this months Alpha Magazine showcasing his Strength and Conditioning and Dietary Secrets. Collingwood Strength and Conditioning Coach Dave Buttifant has been impressed with Beams professionalism-He’s a willing worker, has a great attitude, the right work ethic, knows the right things to do and tries to do them all the time. You can never get enough young blokes with those characteristics. Beams says he’s been in trouble a couple of times for doing extra work and not telling, Buttifant! Enough Said!

As we know athletes are traditionally strong, fit, healthy people and may feel indestructable! But cancer can affect any person regardless of Strength. The Call To Arms is a chance for Sporting Teams to utilise their profile in a positive way by reminding people, that cancer could happen to you or your mate! So get behind this great cause and click here for more information.
All the best for former PIT and In Joe We Trust athlete Dayne ‘Beamsy’ Beams who plays his debut game against Richmond this Thursday night.
Coaches and parents have often commented on the fact athletes training at THE PIT are physically superior but also know how to use their physical abilities to their advantage. I had the opportunity to have the expertise of Brisbane Lions Tackling and Wrestling coach take PIT athletes through specialized tackling wrestling and body contact drills. The techniques worked that well, the following day one our athletes the attended the tackling clinic put another footballer in hospital. Our thoughts are with the footballer and his family.
I recently caught up with colleague and world renowned strength coach Charles Poliquin. Poliquin showcased some interesting and downright mind blowing instant strengthening and flexibility techniques that he has been utilizing with his athletes. I’ve begun experimentation with these new techniques and they have yielded instant and remarkable results and will be a key training tool in my arsenal. Keep an eye out for an article outlining these unique methods.
Congratulations to PIT Athlete Mark Lock who was named Inaugural Captain of the GC 17 AFL Team. Locky has been training in THE PIT for the last few years and holds numerous records-his Chin Ups for reps with an extra 70kgs at 15yrs of age defies logic. Great stuff!
