EC is Getting Hitched, so You’re Getting a DiscountWritten on April 20, 2009 at 7:55 pm, by Eric Cressey It was a big weekend up in my neck of the woods. The Red Sox swept the Orioles, and the Bruins went up 2-0 in their playoff series. The Celtics are up tonight as they try to even their series with the Bulls at one game apiece. CP clients Steph Holland-Brodney and Aimee McGuire both ran the Boston Marathon, as did our friend Sarah Neukom. In the process, the three of them raised over $40,000 for charity! Many of you helped out via the promotions we did on my site. Great job, ladies! On Saturday, I was the keynote speaker at the NSCA Maine Symposium up at my old stomping grounds, the University of New England. State Chairman Heath Pierce and his staff did a fantastic job with the event. And, as it turned out, I also got honored with the first ever Dr. Richard J. LaRue Award for achievement in Exercise Science. Dr. LaRue was my advisor at UNE and the man responsible for really getting their Exercise and Sports Performance Department off the ground. It is a huge honor, and that alone would have absolutely made my weekend – especially since it was near my hometown, so I got to receive it and present in front of several of my family members. Sunday was my brother’s birthday, and snotty little brother that I am, I had to steal his thunder by capping the weekend off by proposing to my girlfriend of two years, Anna. She’s been known as the “First Lady of Cressey Performance” for some time now, but it seemed like a good time to make it official. Feats of strength like these already guaranteed her the position, but it was nice to know that she still accepted it by saying “Yes!” (she’s got over 250 in her, no problem) Needless to say, I feel like the luckiest guy on the planet right now, so we might as well celebrate – and help me pay off the ring! Mike Robertson, Bill Hartman, and I had planned on a “customer appreciation sale” this week anyway, so we decided to change the theme to one of “engagement.” So, from now through Thursday, April 23rd at midnight, all of the following products are going to be 15% off with the coupon code “HITCHED” (no quotation marks) at checkout: Through RobertsonTrainingSystems.com: Building the Efficient Athlete DVD Set Through EricCressey.com: The Ultimate Off-Season Training Manual Don’t miss out on this opportunity to get quality products at reduced prices. Again, that coupon code is “HITCHED.”

I would expect her to post great numbers like she did in the Neutral Grip Pullups and the Sumo Deadlift. After all, she has a “ringer” (no pun intended) of a personal coach. Hell, I am inspired after watching her perform thos exercises. Congrats and good luck!

Eric Congratulations on your engagement. Committing to and sharing your life with another is one of the most meaningful things in life. I am a lurker on your blog daily, I have MM, and MS. Am on the 4th week of the third phase. Today is leg day and I am tired. Thanks for sharing.

I was kind of scared to read your blog today because I thought your last minute porta potty motivational coaching was going to be on (and it truly was motivating.) How awesome is your FIANCE? SHE’s the one that invited me out last night to go celebrate the end of my marathon career. Congratulations!

PS: The magnificent mobility has been a huge help! Just the rear lunge/twist alone has helped me and two friends with heretofore “mysterious” hip impingement issues. I was unable to do hindu squats anymore due to knee pains, but since using movements from Magnificent Mobility, those pains are gone. Amazing for their elegant simplicity or as another saying goes, “Brilliance in the Basics”

April 21st, 2009 at 11:09 am

Hey, by the way, that Power Rack where Mrs Cressey-to-be is doing her Pull-Ups, where do I find that? That chin-up bar is awesome!

Hey Cary,
That’s the Build Your Own Rack by EliteFTS; you just need to select the monkey bar option:
