Listen to Yoda

Friday, April 30th, 2010

badgeThis weekend I am in beautiful Anaheim California for a Fitness Summit. I will be speaking to over 300 of the country’s (and the world’s) top trainers – which is obviously a HUGE honor. Sure I’m nervous but I’m also awesome so I’ll be fine.

In addition to that I have the distinction of having the largest name badge. I am the Flava Flav of name badges (Google him, that’s a semi-funny joke). And you know what they say about guys with large name badges… nothing really.

End of the Road

Thursday, April 1st, 2010

Life is funny thing.  It is full of ups and downs, in and outs.  And when you least expect it, you get a smack in the face- a wake up call.

Two days ago I got my smack:  An epiphany if you will.

end-of-the-road1So here it is…

I have been lifting for over twenty years.  And for the most part they have been good to me, but it is time for a change.  And that is why this is a decision I do not take lightly.

Fishy Math (video)

Wednesday, March 17th, 2010

filet Math.  Always fun (not).

Math was never my strongest subject (although I was ok).  Actually from about 8th grade on I copied all much some of the homework from a guy in my class who went on to be a math teacher.

That goes to shows I can really spot talent :)

The funny thing was I always scored higher than him on the tests (on which I DID NOT cheat.)

 

But I digest…

Fish oil is a wonderful thing.  But most of you are not taking near enough.

It’s time.  Are you ready?

I have updated my original 28 day fat incinerating “C-Diet" to version 2.0 and I need some testers.

And I shouldn’t say “some” – I need SERIOUS testers. Real ACTION TAKERS.

Let me make something perfectly clear:

THIS DIET IS NOT FOR WUSSES

It will involve utilizing old school fat loss methods combined with cutting edge nutritional protocols to deliver superior results. It is a low calorie, low carb full on body fat attack diet.  Serious shiz.

Hard Questions

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

why

 

You’d think with that title I’d come back with something like  “That’s what she said”, but no, not today.  (although it does make me snicker a bit)

I am taking these post directly from my friend Turbulence Training guru Craig Ballantyne, who recently posted these questions that really got me thinking. Maybe they will get you thinking too…

 

 

  • Why do you continue to make short term decisions that ruin your chances of long-term success?
  • Why do you continue to eat junk when you want to lose fat?

Sick and Tired (Again)

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

About 2 weeks ago I got hit with a miserable head cold / flu.  It knocked me on my ass for about 3 days.  I got over it (or so I thought) and resumed life as usual.

flu4 Then a week ago I had a 4 day business trip to Miami planned.  I had a great time, learned a ton but for some reason had a real hard time sleeping.  No real reason I could figure out, just one of those things I guess.

100 Rep Workout: The Game

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

For me, the name of the game is fast workouts. I should say fast, effective workouts (who wants a fast workout that doesn’t do s#^t right?). So I am always looking for creative ways to craft superior workouts that are quick,  effective and have the power to boost the metabolism for 24-48 hours.

As an added bonus I love it when they are portable (I can do it anywhere).

The other day I saw one of the trainers at my facility doing something kinda interesting with his clients.  So like any good boss I am stealing it and calling it my own (thanks Casey).

Quite Quotable

Eintein-insanity
Kinda like walking on a treadmill :)

Most of the time, when I get quoted it comes back and bites me in the ass.

Things like:  “I’ll have the house clean by the time you get back”

or

“Sure, I’ll keep an eye on the boys boys – no problem.”

Yeah, sometimes being quoted sucks.

But there are others much more profound than myself who are actually worth quoting.

Quotes can serve to inspire and motivate.  To make you move out of your comfort zone and into a personal success zone.
