Many of us work during the week and have the weekends to relax, get to projects we’ve been working on, see family and friends, etc. Typically, we make plans for these events and often know in advance how we’re going to be spending our time on the weekends. What many fail to do though, is […]

Track Everything?
One of the things I’ve seen debated numerous times by trainers, coaches, athletes, influencers, etc. in the health and fitness space is whether or not keeping track of things like calories, weights, reps, and anything else related to your health and fitness is necessary. There are those who think it is absolutely vital to attaining […]
Exercising Your Mind
Working out or doing some form of physical activity or exercise every day is an absolute necessity if you’re looking to improve your overall health and wellness. You’ll find countless websites, social media fitness gurus, online personal trainers, coaches touting different workouts, diets and nutrition plans exclaiming their way is the best way… and who’s […]
The Difference Is…
We’re constantly bombarded with distractions. Looming deadlines, notifications from cell phones, gossipy co-workers, the TV shows that we just have to watch. It always seems like just when you think you’ve got a bit of time to devote to yourself, something happens to come up. Sometimes it’s difficult to focus and concentrate with all of […]
Suck It Up
There are times in your fitness journey when you’re going to hit snags and roadblocks. It happens. Life can be unpredictable and throw a curveball once in a while. You slept through the alarm, had to work late, your car broke down, a family emergency happened… you get the picture. When life throws curveballs, for […]

For many people, Sundays have traditionally been days off.

We’ve reached the end of January. The first month of the new decade is behind us. January is the time of year when New Year’s Resolutions are made and too often are broken. As February is about to start, have you taken stock of where you’re at yet? Are you still working towards your health […]
A Battle For The Ages
It’s a battle that will probably be waged loooong after I’m gone, probably long after you’re gone. It’s a battle fought by several different factions. The battle between personal trainers, fitness coaches, fitness personalities, fitness consultants, exercise physiologists, physical therapists, etc. etc. etc. over whose “way” is the right “way”. The “way” I’m referring to […]
Going Carnivore
I wrestled a bit with myself about whether or not I wanted to share what my current diet and nutrition looks like, but I ultimately decided that it may help some people out, so here goes. I have been straight-up “carnivore” for the past 47 days (yes, I keep track). Prior to this, I had […]
