I saw this on the wall of a bar, back in the day

I no longer drink any kind of booze, but when I used to I ended up in many “interesting” places (biker bars, usually). They have their own brand of humor and way of looking at the world. This was a classic quote: “We cheat the other guy and pass the savings on to you.” ForContinue reading “I saw this on the wall of a bar, back in the day”

Weakness starts in the mind

It seems that being in terrible shape is very accepted in our current culture. How in the world did that ever happen? Simple, it starts in the mind. As people people renounce any notion of being responsible for their actions and play the victim card, they get weak mentally.

Thinking outside the box sounds good, but

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!
