Get “Bigly”
From expansive immigration
bans to his election pledge to
create jobs and “cut taxes bigly”,
everything is larger under DJT.
Innovative linguistic skills aside,
should Trump really want to get
big, there’s no one better to guide
him on his journey than Rob Blair,
director and trainer at Commando
Temple. His strongman workout
of mammoth proportions will
help you get pumped up like a
POTUS. Complete the following
once a week.

Air Force One Plane-Pull

(8 sets of 60sec, 3min rest)

Weekend trips to Mar-a-Lago might

be costing the US taxpayer, but there

is a cheaper option – if only Trump

would put his back into it and tow Air

Force One, strongman style. To give

your legs a blast, load up a sled, tie a

rope around the handles and attach

to your waist (A). Drag it over 20m (B),

then turn around and drag back to

the start as quickly as possible.

Join The Arms Race

(10 sets of 10 reps, 60sec)

Bearing arms is a constitutional

right, right? So turbocharge your

own guns with bent-over rows. With

your knees slightly bent and back at

90 ̊, grip a weighted barbell at knee

height (A). Contract your shoulder

blades as you pull the bar to your

chest (B). Complete all 10 sets for an

upper-body blast that will send your

sleeve missiles ballistic.

Weight Of Responsibility

(10 sets of 10 reps, 2min)

Carrying the burden of the Free

World is tough. Which is why the

Prez needs to do the legwork.

Zercher squats can help. Stand with

a sub-maximal barbell on your

elbows, hands touching your chest

(A). Lower until your elbows touch

your knees (B) then explode back up,

keeping the barbell – much like your

cards – close to your chest.

REAL NEWS

Too much time

watching “the

shows” causing you

to squint? LED light

from your TV can

lead to retina

damage. Read a

newspaper instead.

Who knows? You

might learn

Uni of Madrid).

Congratulations, by following

this guide you’ve become the

Donald Trump of your

workplace, social group and

gym, earning you the tools to

build a better future, not just

for yourself but for the poor

saps beneath you, too. To

hold onto this power, it’s vital

that you’re prepared to win

at all costs – just like The

Donald. As the strategic

kingpin behind Olympic

medallist Max Whitlock,

legendary gymnastics coach

Scott Hann is a master

of both planning and

execution. This is his

three-point plan for

presidential prestige. First,

you need to picture

perfection (1) to ensure

everything goes to plan.

Throughout your campaign,

remember to be a secret

softie (2) because, when

dealing with others,

at least a

pretence of

empathy is

crucial. Lastly, always

be your own biggest fan (3).

You are, after all, the man.

“SEE YOU IN

COURT, THE

SECURITY

OF OUR NATION

IS AT STAKE!”

01 / Picture

victory

“Visualise the

run up to your big

win. Imagine

what it will be

like entering the

event, warming

up and talking

with your coach/

advisors. This

way, you’ll be

ready for any

eventuality.”

02 / Stay

balanced

“As a leader you

must appear

ruthless. But

behind the scenes

you should keep

favour with

competitors to

avoid unnecessary

pressure.

Scheduling daily

self-reflection is

key to regulating

emotions.”

03 / Aim

higher

Don’t worry about

others’ progress

• be the best that
  you can be. “If you
  focus completely on
  your performance
  you’ll automatically
  strive to do better.
  The results will
  take care of
  themselves.”
