Jack3d Success Series – Female Wrestler Nikki Storm

My name is Nikki Storm, personal trainer in Glasglow, Scotland and professional wrestler. Here’s my story.

Dancing into Wrestling

I was interested in sports since childhood. Sports day in school was always my favourite time of year. I loved sprinting and did athletics until I was 17. I struggled with high jump the most (I’ll excuse that as I’m 5,1) but I adored long distance running. I became stronger at that than the sprints.

When I was ten I joined a dancing school and specialised in tap, jazz,modern, disco and cheerleading. Every year there would be examinations and shows. I still have some of the DVDs from shows, although I don’t think I would ever show them to anyone! I ended up being a cheerleader …

Jack3d Approved Gym: Elite Performance Center – Portland, OR

I will never forget my first Max Effort bench press team training at Elite Performance Center, EPC for short. It was a cold, cloudy evening; the sun was dipping as night rolled across the sky. A slight chill nipped at my face as I stepped out of my car – my foot landed in a small puddle. I had no idea what to expect. While walking towards this little door I could hear a booming sound system, the crash of what sounded like thunder clapping and grunts. I knew before I set foot into the door that this would be my new home.

As I stepped into the gym and my eyes adjusted to the lighting, I was quickly hailed down to the bench press …

Is DMAA Natural? New Research Confirms in Geranium

Is DMAA, or 1,3 dimethylamylamine, one of the keystone ingredients in USPLabs’ hit pre workout supplement, Jack3d, a naturally-occurring substance?

This has been a major debate for well over a year, and has major implications for the nutritional supplement industry – for reasons that go beyond DMAA-containing products. We’ll get into that below.

Before we begin, a few disclaimers:

This site is not run by USPLabs, nor are we affiliated with them in any manner. We are a Jack3d fan site that was originally created to dispel some myths about this awesome product, and find good deals.

That said, we are going to be a bit biased. That is why we are linking to the original study if you’d just like to read that. We’ll

Getting Ripped with Herve Doliska in Miami Beach and Online!

A friend of mine needed a high-end personal trainer in Miami, FL and asked who to get. I found none other than Herve Doliska, whose awesome mix of education, physique, and likability made him my #1 choice in Miami. He also provides online training too, though.

All About Herve

Herve’s a certified PT (AFAA/ACE) and is also a high school football coach, which I knew my friend would love. He went to West Virginia where he got a bachelors degree in exercise physioliogy and THREE minors — communications, personal training, and sport & exercise psychology.

To say Herve knows his stuff is an understatement. But does he also walk the walk? Just look at his pics and see for yourself!…

Introducing ajFitness – A Bulking Stack with @FitnessWithAJ

There are some serious gems on YouTube and Twitter, and I found one when I stumbled on ajFitness. AJ is a studly fellow and I don’t know tons about him, but his last video is at UCONN, so he’s probably up there in the Northeast.

What I like about AJ? He looks like an ATHLETE. He’s not a crazy looking powerlifter or bodybuilder, he just looks like an athlete. But in fact, he’s a model. This is what I personally think all guys should aspire to be (but don’t be ashamed if you have a few more percent of bodyfat than AJ… you’ll still look great).

AJ and his videos and tweets are a good inspiration if you’re going for this kind of body — …

Stuck Inside from the Hurricane? Here’s Your PRISON Workout!

As we’ve been hanging out on Twitter (follow us at @Jack3dFans), we’re extremely saddened to see so many of our users who have been affected by Hurricane Sandy. To those of you with limited power and affected infrastructure, our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your families. We hope things are going well. This is NO Reason to Give Up – Fitness is a Year-Round Activity!

We can’t help you with the first two strengths, but we sure as hell will help you with a nice prison workout if you’re stuck inside, your gym is closed, or you simply can’t get …

Jack3d Approved Gym: Dave Fisher’s Powerhouse – Torrance, CA

Gritty, old fashioned, and real-deal metal weightlifting equipment and machines. Now this is the way a gym is supposed to be.

I’ve recently begun going to Dave Fisher’s Powerhouse Gym in Torrance, CA, and I must say that I’ve been missing out. It’s not some fancy soccer-mom studio where you’re going to find pilates classes. No way, no thank you.

Instead, the Powerhouse Gym is all about weightlifting and a little bit of cardio – exactly what we want when we’re on a Jack3d-fueled workout… making this our first “Jack3d Approved Gym”.

The Equipment

First and foremost, there’s a proper bumper zone for your deadlifts and cleans. If this doesn’t excite you, then you might not belong on this site. For too long I’ve been …

TShawFitness – “The Gym is My Church & I Pray Every Day”

"2 scoops with 1g extra L-Arginine, 2g Beta alanine & 5g cittruline. Can anyone tell its leg day?

The only thing that gets me more stoked than reading Tweets like this is leaving Tweets like that.

So when I saw Tom Shaw, a personal trainer in Sunderland, UK, post it, I had to know more about him.

Tom was in the British Army starting at the age of 17, and recently left last year. While he was with them, he began training as a personal trainer (known as a PTI in the army). Looking at his Twitter base and following, you can tell that he's as passionate about fitness and personal growth as anyone out there.
