I've been referencing this episode recently, so I figured it would be good for us to get a refresher. Also, I think it's pretty cool to see a concept from its inception and watch how it grows over a few months (this was from episode #308 a couple of months ago. 

I'm in a good mood today because something that I normally do out of habit just drastically changed the trajectory of my company. It's gonna be an amazing next 3 years...

The episode is about disappointment and why we don't just sit on the couch all day to avoid it.

Was doing some new moves on the TRX today and a flood of ideas came rushing in. It was then I decided that we need to talk about the experimentation and the importance of doing things different. 

It was almost a year ago when we did this interview. Lonnie was a trainer with a lot of promise at my old gym. He was friendly to everyone and many people loved him and his training style. Unfortunately, it didn't work out for him there and we talked about what had happened since he left. I like this episode because it shows how not everyone needs to go down the same path to feel like they're maki...

Today, I wanted to talk briefly about why you should seriously consider the way you are doing things and if they still work for you.

This topic seems to come up every Black History Month. As a black American, I have some thoughts about this. We briefly review what I talked about yesterday with respect to sacrifice and suffering as it relates to the expectations of a black person or any person with a perceived disadvantage in our country.

People are always talking about setting their intention and putting it out into the universe to get what they want, but they stop there. There's a little more to the "Secret" and I'd like us to discuss it today.

There's a fun show that my business neighbor is creating on a station called RVN TV in New Jersey.  It's about finding love and they asked me to be on the show so I could give a little fitness perspective. In this episode, I talk about the proper way to meet someone in the gym and we discuss a little bit about my ideal mate.  Here's the link for the episode. You can see it on your iPad a...

In today's episode, we're going to be talking about balance. I talk about when I experienced burn-out in first starting GFC and how I dealt with it. I also talk about what the proper balance is for you to have the perfect life. 

I was thinking about that show "Home Improvement," which used to come on in the '90s and it made me think about how we all could probably be more effective with one or two things. It's always a surprise to find out that you can do something better, so it makes sense to take a look at what you're doing to see if you could do anything a little better. 

Every day isn't going to be perfect. Yesterday wasn't one of my better days, listen to how you rally from a crappy situation to make the following one epic.

Today, I wanted to talk about the actual costs of things. In it, you get to hear a story about a recent interaction I had with my son, there's a little about my lack of motivation on this "Motivation Monday," and there is a little something that you'll discover that you can use to help you get out of any procrastination funk. 

Don't have a Valentine this year? Me neither! Not for lack of trying ha! Check out this episode where I get a bit emotional about my lack of Valentine and listen as I reel it all back in. 

Holy crap!! A lost episode! So cool! I literally just found this and forgot that I had saved an episode just in case I needed some time to create a new episode. (so smart 😉) I hope you enjoy this LITERAL throwback... I reminisce today on this first today back from a mini-vacation. It was interesting to come to the realization that I've always been someone who has actively looked to find help, alm...

Everyone thinks they know what it means to be better until they get hit with adversity. Today we're gonna talk about what it actually means to be better and what you can do to actually implement a working philosophy of being better over bitter in your life. 

Today, I didn't want to record the podcast, but it made me think about what people feel like when they don't want to work out and I think I might have the remedy for that. I mean you're listening to the episode right now aren't you? 

This morning I paraphrased a quote on Facebook from Carl Jung that was not well received. It's sometimes hard to make a profound thought understandable in just a few words. So here's what I believe this quote is saying and I've also included at the end, the method I use to keep my clients encouraged when they feel like times are difficult. 

Life is tough. The best thing you can do for yourself is to modify the tough things and break them down until you master them. Learn how to do so in this episode.

It's that time of year where it's time to grind. It never gets easier. Not many holidays coming up. People keep getting sick. Already tired and most just got back from vacation...it's rough out here. But in times like these, I think of one of my favorite songs, "Landslide," and it all makes sense. We all get bolder and children get older...your opportunity to be and do what you want is not already...

I couldn't think of a name, just like I couldn't really think of a topic at first, then I went on an epic rant about how each individual is responsible for the atrocities they see in the world. If you want to be great then you gotta start blaming yourself for not being great rather than pointing the finger at everyone else. 

Knowing one little known running secret can help you immensely in everyday life. If you try to control too much, you're likely gonna lose. Listen in to hear what this means for you in any project that you decide to undertake.
