Clearly, The World Is Coming To An End
If you don't like doing something, just keep doing it anyway.
2/21/2023 "Out of Every One-Hundred Men..."
"Heraclitus was a philosopher who wrote about men on a battlefield. "Out of every one hundred men, ten shouldn't be there, eighty are just targets, nine are the real fighters and we are lucky to have them for they make the battle. But there's ONE and THAT ONE IS A WARRIOR!" From the time you […]
I'm Fat and Ugly but You Can Do Better!
My skin may be thick but it doesn't mean that I can't find a moral to every story. A couple of weeks ago I got a solid comment on YouTube about how I'm fat, ugly, out of shape, and clearly whatever I'm doing simply isn't working. It's almost like I don't own a mirror and […]

2/18/2023 Do You Want A Great Motivator?
Playing sports growing up I always had the next season coming up. I always had to prep for football, wrestling, lacrosse, or any of the inter-scholastic or inter-collegiate activities that are out there. Never was there a day that didn't get the attention to the prep work necessary to excel at any given sport, so […]
2/15/2023 Keep Moving...
"I'm too busy to train today". REALLY? I call bullshit! It doesn't matter how busy you are. It doesn't matter how lethargic you feel. It doesn't matter what time of day it is or all the things you piled onto your agenda. A QUICK training session is better than a NO training session! Today's Training: […]

2/12/2023 PROWLER!
I have always been a huge fan of this little diddy. From the time it showed up on my doorstep right to this morning. The morning of its arrival while I was coaching in Arizona, I wondered, "what sort of mayhem can I design?" So I packed it in the back of my truck and […]

2/9/2023 Do Something That Sucks Everyday...
This counts! This workout SUCKS!!! You have to find a very dark place inside of yourself to complete this one. The objective is to keep moving and FINISH it. It can be done, but you have to reach way down inside and you might have to kick Satan right in the balls to accomplish it. […]
2/8/2023 Do Something That Sucks Everyday
Yesterday I was having a conversation with one of my long-time athletes. This guy has been with me since his days of high school lacrosse and now is on top of the business world. He was the one that came in with a shitty attitude that I'd NEVER seen before. So he was the recipient […]

The Importance Of Agility
The older I get the more important the things I took for granted are. When you're in your 20s and 30s, you're most likely nothing about your 40s, 50s, and beyond. Now in my 50s, I think about a lot more than just getting big and strong.
2/3/2023 Keep in Mind...
There are no secrets or magic tricks that replace the basics in training Comparing yourself to others doesn't do anyone any good. Your recovery is as important as your workout. Training means stress and restoration. Progress is greater than perfection. Focus on it! Training is a marathon, not a sprint! You can go hard or […]
