Fitness Training: The Extreme Home Gym

   He didn't earn the nickname 'Mad Dog' by sticking to the status quo!
Jeremy Podlog is a married father of two, a competitive amateur wrestler, a digital media entrepreneur,  and an award winning documentary film maker. All of these titles require an extensive commitment of effort and time.
   Jeremy's 25 year plus wrestling career was capped with a Canadian Championship bronze medal and an appearance in the wrestling World Cup on the Canadian National team. His tenacity and attacking style led to the Mad Dog moniker. Many a wrestling tournament announcer lauded these legendary exploits with trembling, tongue-tied reverence.

 Jeremy still has the fire in his belly to keep on wrestling. He is addicted to the sport. In his own words "The wrestling mat is my crack pipe! I gotst to have it!"  

   Jeremy's dilemma is a familiar one to many a working person.
  • His wife is a successful and busy career woman
  • His children are getting involved in sports and arts
  • His film making career is beginning to boom. He is well on his way to becoming Canada's answer to Michael Moore or Morgan Spurlock.
   This mushrooming success of family and vocation has left less available time for his avocation - wrestling. However for a think-out-of-the-box type of genius like Jeremy this is not a deterrent. It is just another challenge! Rather than take valuable time to travel to the wrestling venues to practice,  he has built his own wrestling room in his garage. With some mats and some constructive ingenuity the Mad Dog is back in business - big time!
    Jeremy is also fortunate to live in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, a city with no shortage of current and former internationally and nationally experienced amateur wrestlers. He is able to entice these warriors over with promises of tea, muffins and post workout grog in exchange for an hour or two of combative exercise. In this way Jeremy can work around his hectic business and family schedule.
Since Calgary can experience the full wrath of a northern prairie winter, the garage can be heated.
   Jeremy also has a home gym in his basement to supplement his wrestling with weight training.
Occasionally he is able to slip away for CrossFit sessions at a nearby club where he also provides digital media consulting services.

   Jeremy's personal wrestling studio should not be confused with an infamous 'Professional Wrestling' institute known as the 'Hart Dungeon'. The Hart family are Pro Wrestling icons who ran a school for aspiring Pro Wrestlers out out the basement of their Calgary mansion. Rumors of the family patriarch, Stu Hart, physically torturing ex-football payers turned wannabe pro wrestlers are tales of horrific local legend. The Mad Dog's garage dungeon is more about competitive fitness and fun.

   Hopefully this home studio can keep one of amateur wrestling's most charismatic and colorful characters in the game for a few more years.  
   
Don't try this at home! Then again - he did!
Mad Dog Podlog and his garage wrestling studio.
Mess with him at your peril!

Until next time,..Keep Fit
