How can I trai...

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!  This time of year is always a challenge for keeping up with health and fitness, but it doesn’t have to be. I outlined some simple ways to do the best “damage control” as possible this holiday season.  The reality is that you’re going to eat and drink too much, and that’s ok. But the trick is not letting this get the better of you and really setting you back.  I...

If you play fantasy football, you will enjoy this episode. If you don't know what fantasy football is, you probably won't get most of the connections but if you can get past that, then continue listening.

What you THINK you're doing, and what you're ACTUALLY doing are not always the same thing. You know those people who say they workout super hard yet never change or improve? Yeah, they're not actually training that hard. Although their perception of hard training is valid, because well, that's their perception. Still doesn't make it true. Intensity is one of the most important...

Typically I feel like I come off as the "anti-stuff" kinda guy: no supplements, no gadgets, no tips and tricks. I don't mean for it to happen that way. My intention is for you not to ignore the basics in light of these things that promise to solve all your problems. The reality is that they will not ever replace doing the fundamentals well. However, when you've got that down, there...

The day this episode goes live will be my 28th birthday! So I took a moment to think about 28 fitness lessons I've learned up to this point. By no means am I the "most" experience person in fitness, being only 28 years old, but I've put in a lot of hours and been through many ups and downs, and learned a few things along the way. This is obviously not everything I've learned, b...

This episode has tons of advice for students, parents, and anyone who's ready to get back into the gym after taking some time off for summer. Or, if you're ready to kick things up a notch. I laid out a 4 step plan to g...

One of the most interesting clients I ever had asked me a question that I’ve thought about for over 3 years now. He was about 3-4 months into the gym. Had never worked out before training with me. He asked me “I’m stronger than I’ve ever been, what do we do now?”. It may sound silly to us gym-lovers, but it’s a very real question. Motivations will come and go. Often we step into the gym for one si...

Every now and then I'll continue this series to get a few things off my chest... Also, this was the first solo episode with full video recording also to be uploaded to YouTube ! Will continue to get better, but it would mean the world if you headed there to watch (or just let play in the background) as well as like/subscribe all that fun stuff. Things I covered in this episode: Hip thrust head...

I just got back from a short vacation and while I was away, made some brief observations on how fitness and travel are tied together. One thing I didn't talk about in this episode, was anything to do with fitting into a swimsuit, or getting "beach ready". I probably would have, but honestly the thought hadn't crossed my mind until I sat down to write this description. The "vaca...

This question came up on my Instagram in a very nonchalant way which turned out to generate some amazing conversations, which led me to thinking about it much more. And so here we are. I discussed how this came about, why I think having a trainer is extremely valuable, or possibly completely useless, and my thoughts on everything in between. After listening if you determine that it's about tim...
