<p>That one formula has TRANSFORMED the athletic careers of TONS of athletes worldwide.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s where you can get your dusty/discounted copy of The Truth About Quickness (nevermind, they&#8217;re all gone! But you can read about the Truth About Quickness by clicking <a href="http://www.truthaboutquickness.com">HERE</a>).</p>
<p><a href="http://gamespeedinsider.com/checkoutX.html">The &#8220;Dusty&#8221; Quickness Sale</a></p>
<p>1. Glutes + Feet = Freak Athlete is a proven formula.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve done my best to guide you in the &#8220;how to&#8221; of the glutes part of the equation and give you some help with the feet part, but it&#8217;s just inherently more complicated&#8230;that&#8217;s what Kelly and I created &#8220;The Truth About Quickness&#8221;&#8230;</p>
<p>..so you could have a proven resource delivered to you on a silver platter (or in a DVD in this case!). </p>
<p>It WILL show you exactly how to DOMINATE the &#8220;feet&#8221; part of the equation Glutes + Feet.</p>
<p>2. There are 6 &#8220;dusty&#8221; copies of TAQ I found for you (update: like I said above, sorry, they&#8217;re all sold out!). </p>
<p>These will get picked up VERY quickly. If you want to be a freakishly explosive athlete with incredible quickness and agility and ALSO like saving some money, then get yourself a copy right now before they&#8217;re all gone.</p>
<p>3. If you&#8217;re not sure about how good The Truth About Quickness is, here&#8217;s an  unsolicited Facebook wall post I got last week:<br />
<img src="http://gamespeedinsider.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/taqpicture.png" alt="taqpicture" title="taqpicture" width="570" height="317" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-774" /></p>
<p>Please NOTE that The Truth About Quickness was built and designed for TEAM-sport athletes, like basketball, football, baseball and soccer (or any stop-and-start, high-speed game). </p>
<p>If it&#8217;s working THIS well for track athletes, imagine what it does for team sport athletes like you.</p>
<p>Anyways, after that, I sent Sigfried a private message (as you can see in the picture) and he wrote me back this:</p>
<p>&#8220;First of all The Truth About Quickness helped me run faster times than ever in my life.</p>
<p>TAQ gave me a brand new way to train and it enlightened me alot because I didn&#8217;t know what quickness was until now. And I recommend this to any one out there who like me was a skeptic and was still mediocre, trust me use this and your life and body will change &#8212; thank you Alex! </p>
<p>From Sigfried&#8221;</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the link where you can learn more of the speed secrets found inside The Truth About Quickness: </p>

<p>Also, here&#8217;s a pic of the hip flexor and rectus femoris stretches I talked about in the video. Do each one 2-3 times a day, holding it for 30 seconds each (and notice how similar they are). </p>
<p><img src="http://gamespeedinsider.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/flexor.jpg" alt="flexor" title="flexor" width="300" height="221" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-766" /></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lots of football on the tube today..</p>
<p>It ABSOLUTELY pains me to admit that my hometown team is the Detroit Lions. I may not be Eintsein, but I feel really comfortable guaranteeing we will win more games than we did last year (for those who don&#8217;t follow &#8220;fuseball&#8221;, the Lions went an incredible 0-16 last year).</p>
<p>Now, on to things that don&#8217;t make me want to scream or cry, I have some great free content here, just for my VIP subscribers,  on the Game Speed Insider blog today.</p>
<p>Here is a really smooth 4-week workout with a focus on <strong>acceleration. </strong>If you follow this month-long workout plan, I can guarantee that your overall acceleration will drastically improve.</p>
<p>(note that if you want to actually test out your before and after numbers, take 3 full days off after finishing this 4-week plan before testing anything)</p>
<p><em><strong>Day 1</strong></em></p>
<p>A. Pogo Jumps 3 x 20</p>
<p>B. Lateral On/Off Low-Barrier Jumps 3 x 10 (each)</p>
<p>C. Sprints 8 x 10 yards, 6 x 20 yards</p>
<p>D.  Deadlifts 4 x 3-5</p>
<p>E.  Step-Ups 2-3 x 8-10</p>
<p>F.  Weighted Decline Sit-Ups 2 x 20</p>
<p><em><strong>Day 2</strong></em></p>
<p>A. Low-Squat Sprints 3 x 10 seconds</p>
<p>B. Weighted Paused Jump Squats 4 x 6 (with 15% of 1RM in Squat)</p>
<p>C. Sprints 6 x 15 yards, 4 x 25 yards</p>
<p>D.  Front Squats 4 x 4-6</p>
<p>E.  Reverse Lunges 3 x 6-8</p>
<p>F. Anti-Rotation Iso-Hold 2 x 30 seconds (each)</p>
<p>Do these 2 workouts twice a week and make sure you have at least 72 hours between the 2 sessions, and follow that plan for the next four weeks (for your upper body training, just add a couple efficient sessions a week, focusing on big, compound movements and progressively overloading those movements).</p>
<p>All right, let&#8217;s go Lions, don&#8217;t embarrass me too much this year!</p>

<p>On Monday, we talked about the giant myth that lifting weights will slow you down. We very simply and sufficiently went over why <a href="http://gamespeedinsider.com/access/do-you-need-to-lift-weights">lifting weights will actually make you faster. </a></p>
<p>Today, I want to go over 5 key things you need to keep in mind and focus on as you begin your new weight-training program</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I gotta be honest: I have made a TON of mistakes just in training myself.</p>
<p>For example, when I was first starting out, I used the swiss ball religously (those big, usually blue, blown-up balls that are a lot more fun to just sit on than use in an exercise regimen). I did DB presses off of it, bird-dogs (hip and shoulder extension), push-ups and a million other things that did JACK. I even tried to stand on it once (still have the scar to prove it too).</p>
<p>Anyways, I was watching a morning news show this morning, and was reminded of another training mistake I also used to make and one I see EVERYONE still making today.</p>
<p>It involves using this interesting looking contraption called a &#8220;Bosu Ball&#8221;. It&#8217;s actually like half a swiss ball, with one side of it actually looking like half of swiss ball, but the other side is flat.</p>
<p>Anyways, on this news show, they had some really hot, and apparently mis-informed, female trainer giving some generic fitness tips, and almost everything she had to say revolved around using this &#8220;Bosu Ball&#8221;.</p>
<p>&#8220;You can do bicep curls while standing on it, overhead presses, squats, push-ups, you can even do jumps on it, and it&#8217;s great because you are working on your &#8220;<strong>stabilizer muscles</strong>,&#8221; she proclaimed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>I was at the gym earlier today, talking to a guy who was doing a bunch of random plyometric drills because he wants to play better in his pickup basketball games and because he &#8220;wants to jump like LeBron&#8221;.</strong></p>
<p>Now, while I was immediately tempted to verbally abuse this dude because he could train for the next 20 years, take every banned substance known to man and put &#8220;flubber&#8221; in his white Nike&#8217;s and there&#8217;s no way he was ever going to jump like LeBron, I took the high road and got to rambling.</p>
<p>I started to explain to him that he could definitely jump-start his athleticism for his pick-up games by focusing on his speed and quickness.</p>
<p>I began to show him some basic tests and exercises he could do for speed and quickness, when he jumped in and said, &#8220;Wait. Aren&#8217;t they the same thing?&#8221;</p>
<p>(My Immediate Thought: &#8220;&#8230;oh boy, here we go..&#8221;)</p>
<p>But, I <em>politely</em> explained to him that, no, they are not the same thing, but both kick butt and both can be improved BIG-TIME.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s get into this:</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll start first with the obvious notion that&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;YOU WANT BOTH OF THEM.</p>
<p>Put together, these 2 fiery compounds combine to make a scary and rare substance that makes guys like Jay Bilas and Mel Kiper Jr. dance around and argue like they&#8217;re trying to come to a Middle East settlement.</p>
<p>Quickness is your ability to voluntarily react and move in a short distance, and in a time-sensitive manner.</p>
<p>Crossover dribble? Quickness.</p>
<p>7-Step drop? Quickness.</p>
<p>Jump back to first-base after a big lead off? Quickness.</p>
<p>Speed, on the other hand, is much more power-based, and <strong>involves more of your body-weight in high force situations</strong>.</p>
<p>40-Yard Dash? Speed.</p>
<p>Stealing second base? Speed.</p>
<p>Turning a screen pass into a 40-yard gain? Speed (actually, that could probably end up being a combo, if you&#8217;re anything like my guy Barry Sanders).</p>
<p>Those are just a few of a million simple examples (and I LOVE examples..it&#8217;s so easy to learn when you can visualize what&#8217;s someone talking about).</p>
<p>And NOW, I want to hear YOUR examples.</p>
<p>What to you is Speed? What to you is Quickness?</p>
<p>Give me just ONE comment and I&#8217;ll be back in a couple days with some TESTS to see which one you&#8217;re better at RIGHT NOW, speed or quickness?</p>
<p>(And then, based on those TESTS, you can know exactly what you&#8217;re deficient in, and what YOU need to work on!).</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve got the info here waiting for you, let&#8217;s see some comments.</p>
