- We are remodeling the gym next week. It will give us a lot more functional space and some cool new tools to have our clients "play" with. Be afraid, be very afraid! Stop by and check it out.
- We are hosting another TRX training seminar this Sunday for personal trainers/strength coaches. The TRX is a great tool and it's a pleasure to help other trainers learn how to use it effectively.
- I have been journaling my food intake and training. It has been an interesting project to say the least. I HATE to journal, but it is such an invaluable tool to measure progress or lack thereof. More to come after my 30 days is up.
- Natalie has our new nutrition program up and running. One of the best features is a Web Logging option that allows her to coach clients weekly via their online food journal. An invaluable tool for fat loss. Let me know if you need more info.
- I am reading a fantastic book about relationships, networking and success. It's a book I think everyone should read to better understand how and why we should maintain relationships. The title is Never Eat Alone. Pick it up here.
- Here is my favorite quote from Alwyn Cosgrove regarding falling in love with just one training tool, "20,000 people purchased a drill from Home Depot last year. They didn't want a drill, they wanted a hole." Message to trainers- there is often more than one way to get it done.
- Observations from Brad, one of our coaches:
Just got back from University of Florida Strength and Conditioning Coaches' clinic and it was performed by 6 different SC coaches that are on staff at Florida. I thought it would be all about 1RM and Olympic lifting, I was wrong, they do a lot of things we do.
They always do the dynamic warm up, which included a lot of our warm up exercises. They always finish with a met finisher, usually some form of competition. The head SC coach actually mentioned Dr McGill's back book and said that they always include his big three exercises. He said they still do some sit-ups but not tons.
The clinic was held in there new weight room, which is located under the stadium. They also have big tires that they flip. Anyway, have have rambled enough, have a good weekend and I will tell you more on Monday.
- Special thanks to our very own Mike McFadden and the US Marines kickin ass in Kyrgyzstan. Godspeed and we appreciate what you do for us!
