Before you start training with weights you need to lose all the fat first…
Have you ever heard… “Before you start training with weights you need to lose all the fat first.” Unfortunately, I hear this myth often and it is beyond false! It’s like saying you need to pay off all your debt before you get a job. Makes ZERO sense! So, why do people believe this? First, they are afraid of going to a gym and working out. They often don’t know what to do or how to do it. Plus, there will be a bunch of meatheads judging them the whole time. Second, they already feel bad about their appearance. Why would they...
ARE YOU ALWAYS TIRED?
Are you always tired? You could be part of the estimated 80% who suffer from adrenal fatigue! This last week, I was especially tired. I doubt it was adrenal fatigue ;-), pretty sure it was just the time change. Regardless, experts believe that about 80% of the western world will be affected by adrenal fatigue at some point in their life. That means the chances are pretty high, you, at one time will suffer from it...

Lose Weight and Enjoy Treats
Well it’s Wednesday and Hurricane Florence is almost here. I have quite a few friends who own property near or on the beach and all the ones I have talked to are worried and rightly so. Actually, I am worried and I don’t even own anything near the beach, but I love going to the beach. Why? I love the sand, the water, the people watching...
Many people make this same common mistake…
As a personal trainer I get blessed with the opportunity to help people on a daily basis. On top of that, a seriously doubt there is anything cooler than training a new client who is super eager and ready to change their lifestyle and develop new habits. Often times these new clients are working really hard trying to undo what has often taken years to get to. They are trying to make up for lost time. However...

I MESSED UP YESTERDAY & PAID THE PRICE :-(
Last week we talked about Habit 9 - Meet Your Carb Needs Tactfully. Yesterday, I did not meet my carb needs tactfully ;-( and I paid the price on the scale. My mom saw and bought a new “health” item, it’s called, “Breyers delights.” I won’t lie it is a delight and the product when used responsibly is a real treasure! For a whole pint of Low fat ice cream it is only 270 calories, 67 grams of carbs, 20 grams of protein, 8 grams of fat. That is pretty amazing. What is not amazing, is that yesterday I only had...
I am pretty sure my soul left my body last time I worked out lol. But this is what I did and it was epic…I did a High Intensity Cardio session which burns more fat as well as calories over time then steady state cardio (like jogging). This was the workout, it was a blast and took me 23:36 minutes ;-). On a side note, I am the lightest I have been sense 8th grade...

This weeks challenge is both scary and awesome! I want you to run or walk a 5K this week! If you normally walk a lot, I want to you to run the whole thing.

It is always fun to have something to train for as well as a fixed date that you can’t control. It creates a sense of urgency and...

I recently bought a 2018 Camaro, I love it ;-). I treat it much better than I ever treated my 2007 Buick Lucerne lol. And that made me think...
