It was an early morning and I was practicing Tai Chi in my back yard. The earth was quiet and all I could hear was the sound of the morning birds and my gentle foot steps.

You know that I like to push the envelope with my workouts and today is no different. In fact it is one of the most challenging workouts yet. However, I will not be joining you today in the sweat and tears.
Instead, I have a special guest making her cameo appearance on AShotofAdrenaline TV, it is none other than Mrs. Adrenaline herself… my wife Allison!
Today, I put her and you through the 7 Minute V Up Challenge.
So I would you to give her a hearty Adrenaline-style welcome!
Before we get down to business I want to take a moment and express my deepest thanks to my wonderful, beautiful and loving wife Allison.
Proverbs 12:4 says, “A wife of noble character is her husband’s crown...” and she most certainly is for me. She completes me and I am eternally blessed for her support and encouragement in all of my endeavors. Happy 1st Mother’s Day sweetheart!
Welcome! The purpose of A Shot of Adrenaline is twofold. The first is physical. I am extremely passionate about body weight exercises and helping others transform their bodies with body weight routines. Here at SOA, I write articles and publish videos with the goal of helping you do that.
If you have a specific or personal question I am happy to help. I read and answer every email I receive. Feel free to contact me here: todd@ashotofadrenaline.net.
The second purpose is to share my personal story. By the time I was 13 I had developed an insatiable desire to understand why we are here. After over a decade of spending endless hours in zen meditation and traversing the plains of Atheism, Buddhism, Baha'i, New Age and Shamanism, I was brought to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.
Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." - John 14:6
This site is a public proclamation of my faith in Him that saves. If this offends you, I welcome you to read my story and learn about the experience that brought me to Jesus.
Bodyweight Overload is a 6 week program that I created that helps people build muscle while using only body weight exercises. It incorporates principles of Angular Training and Bodyweight Distribution to overload the muscle and stimulate growth. The above picture shows my results after 2 months on the program.
You CAN build muscle without weights, you just need to know how to do it.
