FROM THE AUTHOR'S FOREWORD:
"I started the Superhero Simplified blog in August, 2013. At that time I'd been running The Fight Gym—a mixed martial arts training center-turned Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu dojo and Strength & Conditioning gym—for almost six years, and I felt like I had some ideas to share.
The original concept was to give regular people practical advice and simple instruction on lifestyle, diet, fitness, martial arts, etc., and in so doing help them surprise themselves. I felt like I had finally sorted through a lot of my own misconceptions about training, and could see where other people were struggling.
It is my hope that what I have written in these pages will help you discover or rediscover just how much potential you have, and just how super you can be."
Scott Burr is a graduate of the creative writing program at The Colorado College, where he was co-chair of the Climber's Association of Colorado College (CACC) and head route-setter at the Ritt Kellogg Climbing Gym.
A long-time martial artist, Scott holds black belt rank in Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, Kodokan Judo, and the Korean art of Kuk Sul Do. He has also training extensively in Muay Thai, Boxing, and Submission Grappling, and has trained with and learned from some of the top names in combat sports, including many members of the Gracie Family.
Scott is a certified pro fitness trainer under legendary strength & conditioning coach Steve Maxwell. He holds additional MaxwellSC certifications in Kettlebell (Level 1 and 2) and Bodyweight (Level 1 and 2) training. He has traveled internationally with Steve, assisting at seminars on everything from kettlebell training to joint mobility to breathwork.
Scott was the head instructor and head strength & conditioning coach at The Fight Gym, a Gracie Jiu-Jitsu school and fitness facility located outside Cleveland, Ohio, for over a decade.
Scott is the author of the novels Bummed Out City and We Will Rid the World of You, and the essay collection Superhero Simplified: Collected, Selected, Revised and Expanded. He is also the author of the training manual Get a Grip: A Practical Primer on Grip Strength and Endurance Training… and More. His short stories and novel excerpts have appeared Metonym, Mildred, The Decades Review, and elsewhere. His nonfiction has been published in Climbing and Urban Climber magazines.
Scott is the 2002 winner of the Ebey Prize for novella-length fiction and was a finalist for the 2004 Reville Prize in short fiction. He is also the 2006 winner of the Geauga Park District Foundation Nature Writing Contest, and was a finalist for the Gordon Square Review's inaugural contest for Northeast Ohio writers (2017). His novel Bummed Out City was one of Library Journal's most-read books for 2015.
He is currently head of design for Hold Fast Grip Tech, where he is refining and improving the training gadgets he dreamed up and developed over his years as the head strength & conditioning coach at The Fight Gym. Visit HoldFastGripTech.com to learn more.
