Movember Fundraiser


Last week I posted about the 70sBig-Movember movement to raise funds and awareness for men’s health, specifically prostate cancer and other cancers that affect men.  To date, the 70sBig Movember Team has raised over $2,500 in just 14-days. To do my part to garner donations for the cause, I am selling an abbreviated manual [$11] in which all net proceeds will go directly to my Movember Donation account, and ultimately the 70sBig Donation team.

Earlier this year I put out the “Next 8-Weeks…”, an ebook which included programs based on Strength, Technique, and a Combination (Hybrid) template.  In keeping with the theme of 70sBig, and based on inquiries from the past few months, I have put the 8-Week Strength program up for sale for $11 for the remainder of the month of November to support Movember and men’s health.


Strength in Olympic Weightlifting is very specific to the key movements and positions used in performing the competition lifts. So the exercises presented in this program are basic compound exercises that overload the muscles and movements used in the comp lifts.  For example, exercises such as the Overhead Squat, Snatch-Grip Push Press, and SG Deadlift may offer great improvements in strength which should transfer when performing the Snatch competition lift. 

This 8-week program is broken down into two, 4-week cycles. The exercises used in each 4-week cycle remain constant but the volume (sets-reps) and intensity (%max) changes on a weekly basis.

After you order, you will get INSTANT ACCESS to  download the ebook onto your computer. 
The e-book format is PDF, which can be viewed on Mac or PC.


Feedback on the Strength program has been very good with numerous lifters reporting PRs in both the strength lifts and competition lifts:

I just finished the first 8 week strength cycle. Prior to starting the program I competed in my first meet in about 6 years. I'm a "reentry" master lifter who competed many years ago. At that meet 8 weeks I snatched 100, c & j 125, back squat 160, front squat 135. This week I back squated 183 and front squated 153! 4 weeks ago I snatched 112 and c & j 130. So I'm very excited by my progress. I want to personally thank you.

The goal of the 70sBig Movember team is to raise $5000 in the rest of the month (about 2-weeks from now).  I would like to personally make a big contribution towards this goal and with your help and purchase I think we easily make our mark.  Prostate cancer, and other issues related to men’s health, is often neglected by the popular media and this is an opportunity to make a contribution to a worthy cause.


If you have previously purchased the complete “Next 8-Weeks” ebook and would still like to contribute please consider donating directly through my Movember donation page: http://mobro.co/doctorhartman and I will personally assist you via email in customizing any of the programs in the “Next 8-Weeks” based on your current goals.  

Together, we can help raise awareness for Men's Health.  I hate cancer and you should too...please consider making a donation or doing something to help the cause.
