“The weight was too heavy… and I was helpless”
This story ends with “Anders Varner” stenciled on John Cena’s garage door at his private gym, Hard Nock’s South, in Tampa, Florida.
It starts with a DNF in front of thousands at the CrossFit Regional.
The weight was too heavy. Everyone in my heat finished. Four minutes remained on the time cap. Everyone gathered, cheered, and I was helpless.
A full year of training culminating in the cold realization that strength was my biggest weakness.
“That will never happen to me again,” I thought. In that moment, I committed to becoming a true strength athlete.
I did “regular gym programming.” Sure, it got me strong. But strong is not the goal.
The goal is to get brutally strong, to leave no doubt, and become a true strength athlete.
Becoming One Ton Strong -> John Cena
I committed to strength. I wrote countless programs and threw them all away.
Finding percentages, mixing squat cycles, calculating volume, speed, power, and dosing accessory movements.
The One Ton Strong training plan was born. The next year at regionals, I overhead squatted 245# for a triple and my team walked out with a first place finish. The strongest team in SoCal.
In 2012, John Cena became a member at my gym, San Diego Athletics. We trained together for four years.
In 2015, Cena invited me to his private gym, Hard Nocks South, in Tampa FL.
Minutes before boarding a private jet out of Los Angeles, he looked at me and said, “You ready for the One Ton Challenge?”
“You are going to set a 1RM in the snatch, clean, jerk, squat, deadlift, and bench press. Add them all up and the goal is 2,000 pounds.”
48 hour later, my name was stenciled in John Cena’s gym on the “Iron Warriors” mural.
Snatch – 232#
Clean – 308#
Jerk – 300#
Squat – 419#
Deadlift – 465#
Bench Press – 285#
One Ton Total – 2,009#
This program, One Ton Strong, took me from DNF at the CrossFit Regional to a private jet with John Cena, ending with my name stenciled on the most famous garage door in strength.
One Ton Strong has been crafted, tested, and perfected by hundreds of strength athletes.
