Omaha Strength Gym – The Forged Athlete – Hit Squad!
Yo everyone-
Today the crew became nicknamed the hit squad.
This group is serious and will let nothing stand in their way when it comes to improving their strength.
Even though we train as a team often times it becomes personal. It’s war with one’s mind and body.
Consistently breaking records and adding muscle is what we like to do. It’s hard not to join in on the fun!
In a few short days there will be additions to the squad. The new members were able to successfully pass
our intro workout and interview. We are very serious with what we do in this gym!
These guys will make huge improvements with themselves over the duration of the program.
It takes dedication, hard work and a mindset of becoming excellent.
That’s what we preach and live by everyday of our lives. There is no other way!
In the vid below is a series of exercises that are currently being worked upon over and over until we get it
perfect with these guys.
There is no room for mediocrity in here. We only want winners and people who want to succeed.
So check the vid and leave a comment if you want?

Omaha Strength Gym – The Forged Athlete – Freaks Doin' Work
Too all my freaks out there-
Here’s a quick vid on a couple of our guys throwing some iron around as well as themselves.
These two guys just started the program. We emphasize a lot of body weight and free weight exercises to develop a good base of strength and then move on.
Our crew was small today, but that didn’t stop them from having a great workout.
Keep in mind that the gym temp is the temp outside. So if it’s 30 degrees outside then 30 degrees is what we have to work with.
This goes for the spring and summer months as well. You have to be ready to battle anything at a moment’s notice. We also keep it chilly for mental toughness.
Watch these two as they turn up the heat. No need for being comfortable when you’re working out.
People need to get comfortable being uncomfortable.
Enjoy!

Omaha Strength Gym – The Forged Athlete – The Right Choice
The Right Choice…
Hey whats going on?
I hope you’re feeling strong, getting strong, and living strong.
It’s a COLD day here in Nebraska. Just seems like this cold will never end.
It’s been a long and drawn out winter and we are only in February!
That’s fine for me though. Other people, not so much.
These people I speak of are the WEAK. The mentally weak. The people who make the easy choice.
You see, today I had a choice to make.
My choice was to either do my workout in a 28 degree Fahrenheit gym or go home and just not lift because it was too cold.
I will be honest – At first, I did not want to lift in the cold. My hands where freezing and I was just plain cold and uncomfortable. It was HARD to get going! It took a lot to warm up.
The barbells were ice cold, the kettlebells were so cold that I couldn’t grasp them for longer than 30 secs at a time without feeling like my skin was getting frost bitten.
It wasn’t a good place to be.
But, I knew in the back of my head that if I were to not lift and just make the easy choice and go home, I was the true failure.
At that point, I put my hood up, put on some gloves, and cranked up the music!
I got my mind back in the zone. I made the “right” choice….
I’ve may of never had a better workout then that one right there!
You see the difference between the “easy” choice and the “right” choice is a matter of GUTS.
It takes guts to make the “right” choice!
Cowards, weaklings, and failures make the easy choice. That doesn’t take anything.
I’m going make sure to be one of the 1% of the population that consistently makes the “right” choice.
Although, making the “right” choice doesn’t necessarily always put me in the most comfortable position, or even in the right position, that’s OK.
You want to get in uncomfortable situations. You want to be forced to change and adapt. This forces you to become better.
Forcing yourself to continually get better will in return get you that much closer to your ultimate success.
All success minded people and people who have had massive success continually find a ways to make the “right” choice.
They dig deep down inside and make sacrifices.
They use their GUTS.
They get it done! Period.
The question is, do YOU make the “right” choice or the “easy” choice when it comes down to it?
You need to answer that question.
Make sure it’s the “right” answer…
In the mean time,
Get Forged Strong!

Omaha Strength Gym – Feats of Strength
Hey Yo!
Check this dude out!
If you can do this then you are one strong mofo.
From time to time we like to post vids that stand out and this is one of them.
Talk about being strong this guy lifts a 405lb stone and shoulders it.
Now being able to lift 405lbs is impressive on its own, but to shoulder it as well is amazing.
That takes some serious strength guys.
Hope you enjoy the vid and leave a comment on what you think.
Not enough people out there giving opinions on strength, so lets see some.
Stay Forged Strong!
