Big shouts out to all the Clark Bartram family!
Just want to say, if you haven't already, go get a copy of Hunter Prey! Now available here in the UK. Awsome movie! Lets support Clark guys.
Nice stuff Mr. Bartram!
Best wishes.

I had a wonderful opportunity to meet & briefly train with the US Navy seals & marines this weekend. I just want to say how impressed I was with their amazing condition! I have so much greater respect for them all. I genuinely feel they must be among the finest athletes in the world.

I'd like to highlight what seems to be a mis-understanding in general health & nutrition these days. Many people are eating & drinking what they think are super foods that are fat free, low calorie & healthy choices. I've found quite a few that seem to be good for you, but often aren't:

1. Bran Muffins
Coffee shop muffins can be four times the standard size & contain little bran or fibre. Choose a wholemeal wheat version.
2. Fat-free Dressings.

I would like to wish everyone on ClarkBartram.com a fantastic Easter.
Have a good break & live the best life you can over the weekend.
Thanks to all who contribute to making this an amazing site. Lets make 2010 the best year yet!
All the best from the UK.

Hi to all at ClarkBartram.com!

Great to see that this website is still as informative as ever & growing day by day.
I haven't been able to blog/write for a while, & just wanted to let CB.com family know that I have recently qualified, & got my degree in Sports nutrition.

I am so pleased & it has taken a long time. Networking with you guys on here has really kept me going strong & I have gained inspiration from many of you.

Thanks to everyone & I intend to contribute more in the coming months.

Best wishes from London, England!

Hey Clark.
Loved the sprinting video. Early & intense!
Just wanted to check that you do ship products to the UK from this site too? If so, I'll order some books etc.
Thanks mate.
Best wishes.

Wednesday's workout for me was in my home gym & consisted of back & shoulders. It's the final session before I change things up a little & train one bodypart per day.

After a good breakfast & some strong coffee, I began with 4 sets of lat pulldowns (12,10,8,6 reps), followed by 4 sets of dumbell military presses ( same rep range).
4 sets of barbell rows & 4 sets of side laterals were next before the 3 killer supersets of good mornings & dumbell front raises. (10-12 rep range).

Great that you guys are sharing training schedules etc here.

Today, mine consisted of a typical mountain bike climb near my London home. Left the house soon after breakfast, & began with a steep climb up a pritty busy freeway. (No better way to make you wake up!)
A 10-15 minute ride on the flat got the blood pumping & took me to the hills where I climbed for 5 solid minutes, followed by a downhill freewheel for 2.
I continued this similar pattern for 20 more minutes, then made the sweet & very welcomed journey back to my home.

Just want to wish all of the ClarkBartram.com family a wonderful 4th July over there in the States.
Wish I was there too.
Best wishes to all.

I'm sure there are times in all of our lives when things seem to get too tough to cope with. Recently, I've been feeling a little that way. It seems one problem just follows on from another.

But I know it will not last.- Anytime I sense these things coming on, I like to read some of Bruce Lee's words to his friends at his & their lowest times. I'd like to share one letter he wrote to a troubled friend:
