Get Buffed!
Ian King's guide to getting bigger, stronger and leaner!
DVD Book and Workout - for a fantastic
product.
I know you hear this all the time, but I divide my years
in the gym into pre-King and post-King. The pre-King
time was almost entirely wasted, I think. Thanks for a
fantastic product. Yours,
--Colby
How to Teach Strength Training Exercises - does
it cover all the exercises?
I have a question for you. I am anxiously awaiting get
buffed 1 and the dvd. When I am ready for the get
buffed 2 and 3, do your video "How to Teach Strength
Training Exercises" cover all the exercises in those
two book including the stretching and control drills? I
rather buy one video rather than all the individuals
videos. My goal is to be able to design and train my
own self effectively. Thank you,
--Edith
Edith - The How to Teach covers only the strength
exercises (including control drills). The stretching you
will need 'Ian King's Guide to Individual Stretching'.
Also, the GB Workout DVD will cover the strength
exercises for the GB 1 workout but not necessarily the
GB II and III workouts (or the Control Drills), which the
How To Teach series will look after.
FYI I expect to take the HTT series to DVD early in the
new year.
My goal is the same as yours for you!
--Ian King
The Get Buffed! DVD and book Combo
Dear Mr King, I have bought and received the get
buffed DVD and book Combo and a DVD on drill
control. I realized that on the squat portion you
mentioned something like "squeeze your cheek"
when standing up from a squat. Does "squeeze your
cheek" means squeeze your buttocks? I am not sure
of this slang used.
Also, your dvd contains very good training mentions. I
am blessed by it.
Thanks. Have a great day.
--Henry, Singapore
Henry - great to see you investing in your education!
The abdoms and gluts (cheeks) work together to
control hip position. Going down in the squat I place
prime focus on sucking in the tummy to ensure
control of pelvis into what I call an optimal position
(relatively flat and unchanging lower spine shape)
and contraction of the gluts (i.e. squeeze cheeks) in
the up phase for the same reason.
Thanks for feedback on the DVD. That's more
technical info that I understand but will pass it on to
our suppliers.
I am impressed with your application of gratitude.
--Ian King
Training Program
Hi Ian, I am a bodybuilder and I wish to gain more
muscle but i have done lots and lots of programs out
there including yours twice over.I was wondering if it
would be possible for you to design me a program for
the purpose of gaining muscle? Obviously I would
pay you to do that i am sure we could work out a
price? If this is possible could you please contact me
via email? I understand you would be very busy but
you are my fav coach and your programs have always
worked but recently i seem to have been stuck at my
current weight of 225lbs.
I have tried many different things eg.resting
more,sleeping more,reducing volume,increasing
volume and nothing has worked.
If you could do this request i would be most happy if
not then thank you for your time mr.king
--David, United Kingdom
David – thanks for your email. Great to see your
commitment to your training. I am asking my head
coach to touch base with you to see how best we can
serve your needs. His name is Mike Pimentel and his
cc shows above. I rarely work outside of referred
clients. Also, it may not be cost effective for you to hire
myself, and my personal values are committed to
excellence – I don’t start something that is not
sustainable for a reasonable period of time. I will
oversee the communication between you and my
coach/es. Look forward to the outcome!
--Ian King
Italian B'Ber
Hi Mr King.I'm an italian BBer and I have read many
your writings and specializations on Tmag and I have
used your specializations for arms and chest. But the
problem is my chest! It doesn't improve! or,better,it
improves a little. Have you some exercise for me or
some program,please? Thank's very very much.
--Oreste
Oreste - thank you for your email. When generic
programs such as those posted in my articles/books
don't do the job, you probably need an individualized
program.
My coaches can individualize a program for you if you
wish to hire a KING coach. Learn more at the linke
below..
Anything is possible if you believe it is, and are willing
to take action to achieve it.

Champion Athlete!
Marathon racer meets KING Coach!
I am a marathon runner. Actually, to be more
accurate, I am a marathon racer.
When I had my first assessment with Darren Stehle in
the third week of April, I had logged about 500 miles
of running in 2006. I had withdrawn from the Boston
Marathon and decided to reduce my running workouts
indefinitely. I was experiencing intense fatigue in my
lower back and I had incurred what I thought was an
injury in the form of a pulled muscle in my right
adductor.
When I met with Darren, he did a thorough analysis of
my posture and flexibility. He was particularly
observant of the differences between the two sides of
my body. While they are subtle, he could accurately
pinpoint the areas that were different and he pieced
together, from my personal mosaic, some very
accurate ideas about my back and ‘adductor’ issues.
(It turned out that I actually had a groin injury, which I
wouldn’t have known without Darren’s focused
assessment.) The basic diagnosis confirmed that I
am very inflexible – probably due to the finite range of
motion I use as I run long distances. He made
copious notes to take with him to his personal
laboratory.
A week later, we met again, this time Darren arrived
with a full stretching plan in hand which he guided me
through step by step, explaining why each exercise
was appropriate for me – to increase my flexibility. He
also took care to start with a particular side of my body
first, depending on the exercise, so it would address
my weakest side and build flexibility where it was
most needed.
Now, after six weeks of using Darren’s program, I
have run well over 300 miles. I am moving easier,
much faster and smoother. I am having more fun and
I no longer feel that ache in my back and my groin
injury has fully mended.
I appreciate Darren for his precision of observation
and for sharing his genius with me. I feel excited
about my running program again. I gladly
recommend Darren to anyone that has a specific
need in the area of Integrated Fitness. He is a
fabulous listener, a great observer and creates
programs tailored specifically to each client’s
needs.
Thank you Darren!

Coach Education
A balanced approach for a global future!
it should be used i feel as a text book!
To Ian and the crew at KSI -
I
have been a personal trainer for 2 years now and
have read a few books on strength and conditioning
and i assist a friend of mine in training his
powerlifting clients ( they have just competed at the
world natural powerlifting comps in Bendigo, Vic) the
muscle book i have just finished reading is a top rate
book that is crammed with so much top information it
should be used i feel as a text book for people who
are getting into the fitness industry once again
congratulations on a first rate book, i will keep in
touch!
Regards
-- Simon.
Simon – thanks for your email and for the positive
feedback on the BOM! Great to hear you received the
value we believe was put into this book, and we have
the belief in common that this is one of the most
informative books ever released!
As a personal trainer, we trust you are familiar with
our professional development products and courses,
on here.
Thanks again, and all the best with your training and
business!
-- Ian King
The best route in regards to educating myself?
Ian, i am a bodybuilder and i love to train hard and
make the best of my training.However i have hardly
any knowledge of training and have only 2 years
experience.
I am interested in some kind of education which
would be the best route in regards to educating
myself?I wish to some day become a trainer however
don't want to be another uneducated instructor i want
to be able to give the best advice possible and also to
further my career in bodybuilding at the same time.I
also am interested in all aspects of training.
You are by far my favorite coach and love reading your
stuff on T-nation and i have also got your book "how to
write strength training programs" which i sometimes
feel is too advanced for me.
I have also done some of your programs like
limping,super strength and the arm program which
where great.I really want to excel in life and need the
best advice from the best to do that,so Ian if you could
give me some advice i would be greatful.By the way i
am 22 years old and from the UK
Thanks a lot,
David
David - thank you for your email. I have concluded that
you are seeking guidance in your potential career
path in physical preparation. In essence you will need
to make your own mind up, but you will be drawn to
what you attract and deserve, and as long value this
concept, you can change your attractions.
In essence the first question is whether you want to
do a university degree or an industry certification. I
believe I have addressed these issues at length in
two of my book - 'So You Want to Become a Physical
Preparation Coach', as well as 'The Way of the
Physical Preparation Coach'. I would imagine that if
you don't have/read these books you will.
At some time in your life you may be drawn to the
KING Coaching Program - who knows. I would only
want that if it was a match for who you are.
How much you achieve, how much impact you make
on the world in your short time on this planet is
determined by your - your self-belief, values, and
determination/work ethic.
As you assess all your options be objective in your
assessment. Look at the way your potential
influences/role models lead their life and ask if that is
what you want. And continue to seek a better way! All
the best!
-- Ian King
Thank-you again for the opportunity!
Ian, Thank-you again for the opportunity to interact and
learn from the exceptional coaches from KSI. Each
one demonstrates a high level of character and
commitment to excellence; the fact that they are
willing and able to communicate their skills is a
bonus I am grateful to have the opportunity to
experience. The value I received is far greater than the
monetary cost of the Boot Camp – not even close.
There a many concepts that I was exposed to during
my time in Utah that are already proving beneficial as I
move forward; a couple in particular.
1) Consistency is the key to any successful
endeavor, whether it be physical preparation,
business, relationships – anything. Take action every
day that will further your goals.
2) Effective time management; deletion and
delegation. Get the clutter out of life that interferes with
your goals and make time for the important things. I
also appreciated the manner in which you suggested
our priorities be arranged:
- Personal health
- Family
- Financial – Never allow this to take priority over
1 & 2
The exposure I have had to KSI has caused me to
conclude that the training in physical preparation is
the finest available anywhere. While this is important,
it is more important to me personally that KSI prompts
development in all areas of life – personal and
professional. It is evident to me that there is a sincere
desire to see students grow and succeed in their
endeavors – this is far different from many
organizations out there.
I would be remiss if I did not let you know how much I
appreciated working one on one with Miguel Charles.
The time he spent with me is paying dividends in my
health and has changed my thinking as it relates to
the relative importance of the physical qualities. The
added emphasis on flexibility and stretching has
made a positive impact on my quality of life already.
My wife Nancy and I have the opportunity to meet with
Mike and Rhonda Pimental next week regarding
getting started with KING Health International. This is
just one step of action of many that we are making as
we move forward on this new journey. I look forward to
a continued association with you and your fine
organization. Thank-you,
--Dean Carlson
Again I am impressed with your sharing. I strongly
encourage you to be clear in your plan and stay
committed. The daily winds may buffer us, but
ultimately if we stay true to our clear, firmly held goals,
supported by determined, consistent action – you will
build the life you desire, and have the impact on
others that makes the difference in their lives in the
same way you have had these gifts shared with you.
I look forward to watching which team you ultimately
chose to play on – the <5% who really make a
difference in their lives and others; or the >95% who
chose not to go the distance.
--Ian King

KSI's holistic approach to coach education places
significant focus on personal development. One of
our
mentors that we recommend to everyone is Jim
Rohn,
America's leading business philosopher. His has an
amazing ability to say so much in so few words.
Here's and example of that:
Concentration
When you work, work. When you play, play. Don't mix
the two.
