Be PROUD of yourself!

I am proud of myself. I had a cold, a right hip that is just not up to running, and a left hamstring that is tight as a drum. A year ago I would have easily pushed through the pain of the hip, maybe throw a stretch or two in for the hamstring, and forget...

Rarely will you ever do anything harder in your life than try to lose weight. Alcoholics can stop drinking, smokers can stop smoking, but when you have to lose weight you can’t just stop eating. The temptation is all around you. It’s the one “addiction...

Yo, going organic ain’t easy but it’s necessary. This post isn’t going to be about why regular food is bad and organic food is good. This article is about two often overlooked sides of going organic: it’s not always the best choice and going organic for...

It is very tempting for people who start a diet to just go hard with exercise and cut their calories to a ridiculous level of calories. Shortly you start feeling lethargic, sleepy, hungry, grumpy, tired, and confused. I've often had people ask me...

Some of you might think when I lose a client that it is a bad thing for business, etc. Sometimes I lose clients because they aren’t prepared for the lifestyle change and some people need face-to-face help. Online training can be a perfect for some and...
