Failure

The Relentless Pursuit of Failure

  This past weekend I had the honor of speaking about how to build a business at the Fall FMI Conference. (If you aren’t familiar with FMI, it is a training resource for fitness and sports professionals that offers them career and personal development education.) This was my first ever invitation to speak at FMI, and let me just tell …

Busy Man Workouts

There’s a big misconception out there that if you work in an office (aka sit on your ass from 9-5 or later)…you’re lazy and unmotivated if you’re “too tired to train” either before or after work. This assumption is 100% FALSE. Having worked in several corporate environments myself, and sat in tons of super boring, all-day meetings in uncomfortable clothes, …

The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective Asskickers

Success in life doesn’t just “happen”. You make choices and you perform certain actions, which in turn, give you various outcomes based on those choices and actions. You choose to eat healthier. You choose to go to the gym. You choose to stay faithful to your partner. You choose happiness. You choose success – and YOU choose failure. It’s all …

Powertec Interview

In case you’ve never heard of Powertec (aka the world’s best plate loaded home gyms), they are, in my humble opinion, one of the top fitness companies out there. I’m not just saying that because I’m associated with the company – I’m saying it because I truly believe it. From the ownership to management, to the creative & media team, …

Factory Farming – A New Disease Model

Disclaimer: This is one of my longer posts, but I believe this is probably the most important blog post I’ve ever written. The information discussed could directly impact yours as well as your family’s health for years to come. So please, read and study it carefully! There aren’t very many things that irritate me, and I’m not really a political …

Committed Failure

Seems like all everyone wants these days is a cutting edge training program, a sophisticated diet plan, delicious recipes that burn fat & build muscle, and exotic supplements that do all the work for you. And everywhere you turn these you see more and more products, programs, and supplements hyping people up to believe they can build the body of …

Lessons Learned From Times Of Pain

This is probably one of the longer blog posts I’ve done…so I want to apologize in advance. But its also one of the most content packed ever and I think you’ll find it somewhat entertaining and hopefully even learn a thing or two. People usually squinch up their faces and give me weird looks when I tell them I play …

A New Perspective: A Life of Gratitude is a Life of Riches

Amid all of the poverty, war, and economic turbulence in our society today, we all have good reason to be frustrated, as well as whine and complain about how life just isn’t fair. Foreclosures are everywhere, the unemployment rate is sky high, people are behind in bills, and there seems to be no where to turn. All around us there …
