Overview

CrossCore® Hardcore makes a compelling case that the small, light and very portable CrossCore® training device can build the same kind of strength and muscle normally associated with barbells and dumbbells.The CrossCore® is a "gym-in-a-bag" that can meet the strength building requirements of the most demanding of athletes—while catering equally well to the dedicated fitness buff who seeks a fast, convenient and effective way to get as strong as they want.CrossCore® Hardcore attacks every body part with a carefully-planned set of progressions that replicate traditional exercises like the bench press, the deadlift and the squat—but without the need for heavy weights or a gym.CrossCore® Hardcore's lead author Marty Gallagher originally developed these protocols at the request of US Tier One Spec Ops—who sought a portable training device that could still provide a powerful workout in the most challenging of locations.After Gallagher's protocols proved to exceed all expectations with his Special Forces trainees, he turned his attention to several world-champion powerlifters—who were equally impressed by the results they achieved with the CrossCore®.The CrossCore® Hardcore program has been acclaimed by a wide range of experts, from leading physical therapists to the most experienced of NBA strength and conditioning coaches.Marty Gallagher, with the help of his co-author Dr. Chris Hardy and with Michael Krivka, has distilled his fifty years of world-champion-level strength achievements and coaching experience into a unique program that can help anybody achieve higher levels of fitness in minimum time with maximum efficiency.
