Are you Committed to Being Better Than Yesterday?
I never expect PR's every time while working out. As a matter of fact, PR's should be saved for actual competition whether it be on the platform, field, court or ice. I believe you only get so many personal records in your life, so don't waste them. What I do ask of people is to […]
No One Ever Drowned in Sweat
I have always been a huge advocate of the Conditioning part of "Strength and Conditioning". Don't get me wrong, being stronger than your average bear and being able to tear the ass end off a charging Rhinoceros is a lot of fun too, but taking a resting heart rate of 48 beats per minute has […]
God Doesn't Use a Cookie Cutter
"He knows every hair on your head" is a passage in the Bible. For the record, I am not a Bible Thumper, but I did make a promise to my creator and told him "when you get me through this trial/tribulation, I promise to give you FULL fucking credit for everything good that happens in […]

Day 2: I'm smarter than I look....Really
After I had my "Special Counseling" from Dear Sheena, the only thing I left out was the picture. Heck, I didn't know I could still do that. So here I am (a few years back at the Compound known as S4 EliteFTS) As of last month we switched over to "Summer Training Mode". For some […]
A New Beginning (Who Moved My Cheese?)
As we move towards the future, there has always been some resistance for me to change. Luckily the Team back at EliteFTS HQ have great patients and are willing to hold my hand as we move forward. Sheena Leedham is my personal "Guardian Angel" that is quick to lend me a smile and then has […]
