I hear that phrase used a lot, in fact it is used so much it is pretty meaningless. I mean it sounds cool (or it used to) but few people actually put it into practice. It seems that many people just switch boxes and still get trapped inside small thinking patterns and training dogmas. ManyContinue reading “Thinking outside the box sounds good, but”

Rise above the herd
It’s common practice for people to just copy someone else’s training ideas. At least I hope they are honest enough to say whose ideas they are using; however, some just say that it’s their own ideas. Serious coaches/athletes have their own unique qualities to offer. That is the best way!
At 80 years old he said, “Give me this mountain!”
I love to read about people who have refused to fall apart as they chronologically age. There is so much “evidence” that says you cannot be strong and fit your whole life. I say flush all that garbage! Must be that this ancient warrior never read the studies that said he couldn’t do what heContinue reading “At 80 years old he said, “Give me this mountain!””

If you have coached long enough, you will be familiar with this. A person hits a goal without really giving 100%, then leaves thinking they did good. Well, they didn’t, here’s why– the goal was not big enough they could have done much better with full effort Never let a person get away with thatContinue reading “When hitting your goal isn’t good enough”
None of us are as smart as all of us
I heard this quote years ago and I don’t remember who first said it, but it is very true. Did you ever notice how those who are successful in any field are the ones who seem to always be hungry to learn more? Take the field of strength and conditioning, for instance. Basically you haveContinue reading “None of us are as smart as all of us”

Before the New Years madness begins
Two holidays back-to-back can set you back more than you think, unless you are an extremely disciplined person. Many in America will gain about ten pounds during the holidays. This seems to be repeated every year, and it adds up. Most people never take that extra weight off. However, that doesn’t have to be theContinue reading “Before the New Years madness begins”
