Stop Making Yourself Sick, Get Healthy!
In my 30 years as a Personal Trainer I think one of my biggest frustrations is watching people who have painful & dangerous health problems (bad cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, acid reflux, heart disease, obesity, joint pains, high stress, depression, anxiety, & more) stemming from weight gain and they WASTE YEARS failing…

Start your kids off lifting weights!
Start your kids off young learning proper strength training, cardiovascular training, stretching, healthy nutrition and proper rest and recovery! Do not believe the myth that can’t cannot lift weights or Strength Train because it could stunt their growth, that’s complete non-sense! Think for a moment – what was harder on me as an obese kid,…

Aging doesn’t make us weak, it’s how we age!
We all get OLD! How many active, fit, and healthy elderly people do we hear complain about aches, pains, and health problems??? Not many! Age does NOT equal aches, pains, suffering, and more health problems. No…how we live dictates how we feel. If we continue to eat junk we will continue to feel like junk.…

I can never tell myself or any client or athlete how many calories they need until I setup our Exercise/Training plans and know how Active I/they are away from our workouts at home, school, or work. Knowing our Exercise and Activity levels comes first then we…

It’s your choice to get healthy!

Did you exercise, eat healthy, and get more rest back then but after you found that significant other you got comfortable and gained too much weight and became unhealthy?? Many of us have been there and gotten…

It’s cheaper to eat healthy! Junk foods cost more!
It’s Cheaper to Eat Healthy! Junk foods cost more! One of the common excuses I’ve gotten from clients, readers, or people in the audience of my lectures for almost 23 years is that it’s too expensive to eat healthy…this is Not True. Change your thinking! Eating healthy foods means eating foods that will sustain you…

Women losing their periods from running!
Women Losing their Periods from Running: Again…Inexperienced Coaches and Trainers are hurting their athletes and clients. If you are a female and your running plan, or the plan your coach designed you, makes you lose your monthly Period, then you are not training with sense and safety. I know it’s a weird comment to make…

Workouts & Exercise shouldn’t hurt you!
No athlete, from Pro/Elite to Youth/Children, should ever be hurting before stepping onto a field, court, or up to a race start line. Training, working out, and exercising should NEVER hurt you aside from sometimes mild muscle soreness. Think about it…why would a smart coach or trainer continue to hurt an athlete or client in…
