Eliott Hulse – Muscle Virus Solution

That Are Keeping You From Reaching Your Training Goals

Eliott Hulse – Muscle Virus Solution
Few know this…
But many guys who train
Suffer from silent…
Painless imbalances which keeping them from getting:

Bigger
Stronger

Or getting any closer to reaching their athletic goals
These imbalances are known as a muscle viruses

And often it’s brought in as a response to painful, traumatic experiences in your past

or…
Inappropriate demands being placed on your body
Sometimes these demands are brought on by things such as early specialization in sport…
But most of time…
These muscle viruses are brought on by poor choices in the way you train throughout the years
Let me explain…

Just recently I had an opportunity to visit a commercial gym
Considering I’ve spent much of the past decade working with athletes at Strength Camp…
What I witnessed, during my short stay…

Left me shaking my head in disbelief

One thing that really stood out was the obsession…
….damn near every guy in that place had with training their chest
In the 45 minutes I was there…
There was a constant rotation of guys clamouring for the bench press
And when they did manage to secure one, they would go on to perform a seemingly endless number of sets until their poor pecs couldn’t bare it anymore…
Which I guess wouldn’t be so bad- if these same guys who had just murdered their pecs…
Had stopped there…
But as you can surmise that was NOT the case…
After each of these guys beat the shit out of their pecs, they moved on to another chest exercise…
and another after that

WTF?

All this happened while the seated row sat completely empty by the way
Now, I try to withhold judgment on how others approach their training…
In fact I’m pretty sure I’ve done a bunch of dumb shit myself, over the years…
But this here…
Was madness
I’ve been around the iron game for 20+ years now, so I’m pretty adept at figuring out what people want by observing how they train…
With that said…

I Assume Most Of These Guys Were Performing All These Sets And Reps Because They Wanted Bigger Pecs…

Unfortunately, what they failed to realize is this;
When you want to bring up a particular body part…
It’s critically important you start off by looking at the length tension relationship between that muscle and the group of muscles directly opposing it
You see, your body is an intricate system which functions best…
When everything is in balance…
Maintaining balance is so important to your body in fact, that when it senses things getting out of whack…
It slams the breaks on muscle growth to prevent further any imbalance from happening.
So when these guys dedicate an entire workout to “pumping-up” their pecs, without addressing their:
– medial traps
– lower traps
And rhomboids,

They were unknowingly destroying any chance of growing bigger, more impressive pecs.

And if that weren’t bad enough…
How about this…
If they continued on training this way…
It would result in that rounded shoulder, just got punched, slumped over, concave, bad puppy posture I spoke about earlier.
And that’s just the beginning…
Remember earlier when I said your muscles work as an intricate system to create balance?
Well, when one muscle gets particularly out of balance…
It creates a domino effect throughout your entire body.

And what often starts as nagging shoulder pain…
Often results in

Neck pain (tight upper traps)

Low back pain (tight hip flexor complex)

And hamstring pulls (tight lower hamstrings)
Pretty crazy huh?
And this is just one manifestation of what can happen to the body when shit gets out of whack…
There are dozens more potential negative outcomes…
I’m not telling you this to scare you btw…
But more so to raise awareness about the effects poorly thought out training can have on your body …
And to show you how to spot potential muscle viruses lurking in your body…
So if you’ve already started down that path.
Or just want to avoid that mess altogether,
There is hope
Over the past 11+ years…

I’ve Had Hundreds Of Athletes Walk Through The Doors Of Strength Camp Requesting Our Unique Approach Of Training…

And before we work with any of them…
We take them through a detailed structural assessment to identify which muscle viruses they may be suffering from…
In all of the years of doing so…
And throughout the hundreds of athletes I’ve personally tested…

We’ve yet to find EVEN one athlete who didn’t suffer from at least one muscle virus

Which just goes to show you how rampant muscular imbalances are…
amongst EVEN the fittest members of society
Either way…
Following the assessment…
Each athlete is instructed to follow our patented 4 layer approach to ridding themselves of their underlying muscle viruses…
This 4 layered approach comprises of the following:

STRETCH

When a muscle gets short and tight (tonic), it disrupts the muscles ability to contract properly.
Which in turn lead to a muscle which is unable to express it’s true strength and capacity for power.
To alleviate this you MUST follow a series of stretches that allow the muscles to relax back into their optimal position…
So your muscles can manifest strength they way they are intended to

The second of our 4 phase approach is to strengthen chronically weak muscles.
Muscle viruses work in a zig-zag manner…
Meaning where there is a tight tonic muscle…
There will be a long loose group of muscles directly opposing it…
This imbalance in tone and strength is what causes the problem in the first place
When this is the issue it’s critical you focus on strengthening the weak muscles bring everything back into balance.

STRENGTHEN

BREATHE

The 3rd and often overlooked aspect of ridding the body of muscle viruses is…
Focusing on how you breath.
When your body becomes unbalanced, it results in neurotic holding patterns where you become anxious and start shortening your breath…
If left unchecked this tension makes you rigid and tense
Which, long term turns into anxiety…
hyperactivity…
and stiff rigid organs
Which trust me is Something you DO NOT want
To alleviate this, it’s critical you slow down and learn how to breathe…
This simple act alone when done properly will add years your life and rid you of the negative feelings impacting you right now

The 4th and final phase of our solution deals with ridding yourself of inflammation
In the rare incident your muscle virus isn’t due to emotional trauma
or poorly structured training…
It’s brought on by something far worse…
Inflammation
Inflammation is the body’s attempt at self-protection.
It’s occurs when your body needs to rid itself of harmful stimulus, irritants, or pathogens.
The presence of inflammation is a dead-giveaway that something is VERY wrong
Sometimes poor nutritional choices triggers your stomach to go into an inflammatory state, when this happens it weakens the muscles lining the walls of the stomach
Which in turn reduces the strength of muscular system
If you want to irradiate the muscle viruses laying dormant in your body, it’s critical you reduce inflammation as much as possible.

REDUCE INFLAMMATION

The good news is this doesn’t have to be the case. At least not with the athletes who make the wise decision to train following the 4 step approach I’ve developed.
But I’ll tell you more about that later
Before I do let me make another bold statement…

Strength Camp is known for producing results…

Those who travel here to train using our unique approach frequently break personal records within their first few sessions
We’ve grown so accustomed to this…
We barely bat a lash when it happens…
If there is one thing we do take note of, it’s this…
How much better our athletes feel once they start using our methods
Without fail…

Every athlete who has walks through our doors makes mention of how much better they feel within days…
simply by following our 4 phase approach…
Nagging pains which used to hinder their every movement disappear
Joints that once creaked and popped, are suddenly silent
And according to them…
For the first time in their adult lives they feel as if they can move as freely as they did when they were kids
Now this may not seem like a big deal to some but…
When I hear this sort of thing
