Smart trainers have long known that there are differences when you train men versus women. Most studies have used men and assumed the results would transfer over to women. Not necessarily the case.

Venus & Mars in happier times
While men and women are *mostly* the same physiologically (certain exceptions immediately come to mind) turns out there are some important differences below the surface. I just read an interesting article in MSNBC about the current research and findings regarding gender differences in training effects. Read the full post ... (571 words, 4 images)

I go a huge response from article I wrote for the last newsletter entitled Pants Lie. So I thought I’s share with you some of the things I learned.
One of my good friends is a marketing guru, and at some point had a meeting with a high level marketing person with Calvin Klein. They got to talking and she went on to tell how today’s size 2 is actually a size 4 from the 80’s. And as the sizes get bigger the gap gets larger. Example: today’s size 12 is a size 16 from the 80’s and the same applies for men. Read the full post ... (362 words, 3 images)

I came to a harsh and startling realization the other day: my pants have been lying to me. I know it’s hard to believe, but pants are liars. Big fat liars. I suspect dresses are liars too, but I have no first hand experience with dresses (why? what did you hear?)
Someone should have clued Hammer in,
his pants were lying to him for years…
No long ago when I started my one of my 6 Week Body Transformation programs, I asked all of the participants to take measurements. For they guys, it was the waist I was interested in, for the women it was waist and hips. So after one guy didn’t email me with his measurements I asked him during the session. Read the full post ...

(open to both local residents and online clients)
It’s time. Are you ready?
I have updated my original 28 day fat incinerating “C-Diet" to version 2.0 and I need some testers.
And I shouldn’t say “some” – I need SERIOUS testers. Real ACTION TAKERS.
Let me make something perfectly clear:
THIS DIET IS NOT FOR WUSSES
It will involve utilizing old school fat loss methods combined with cutting edge nutritional protocols to deliver superior results. It is a low calorie, low carb full on body fat attack diet. Serious shiz. Read the full post ... (540 words, 1 image)

You’d think with that title I’d come back with something like “That’s what she said”, but no, not today. (although it does make me snicker a bit)
I am taking these post directly from my friend Turbulence Training guru Craig Ballantyne, who recently posted these questions that really got me thinking. Maybe they will get you thinking too…
- Why do you continue to make short term decisions that ruin your chances of long-term success?
- Why do you continue to eat junk when you want to lose fat?

About 2 weeks ago I got hit with a miserable head cold / flu. It knocked me on my ass for about 3 days. I got over it (or so I thought) and resumed life as usual.
Then a week ago I had a 4 day business trip to Miami planned. I had a great time, learned a ton but for some reason had a real hard time sleeping. No real reason I could figure out, just one of those things I guess. Read the full post ... (737 words, 5 images)

For me, the name of the game is fast workouts. I should say fast, effective workouts (who wants a fast workout that doesn’t do s#^t right?). So I am always looking for creative ways to craft superior workouts that are quick, effective and have the power to boost the metabolism for 24-48 hours.
As an added bonus I love it when they are portable (I can do it anywhere).
The other day I saw one of the trainers at my facility doing something kinda interesting with his clients. So like any good boss I am stealing it and calling it my own (thanks Casey). Read the full post ... (407 words, 3 images)

Kinda like walking on a treadmill  |
Most of the time, when I get quoted it comes back and bites me in the ass.
Things like: “I’ll have the house clean by the time you get back”
or
“Sure, I’ll keep an eye on the boys boys – no problem.”
Yeah, sometimes being quoted sucks.
But there are others much more profound than myself who are actually worth quoting.
Quotes can serve to inspire and motivate. To make you move out of your comfort zone and into a personal success zone.

Seriously, whoever came up with this rig is super dedicated. (I highly doubt it is the young lady in the pic). 2 coffee cans filled with cement, a pole between them and a bench made of 2×4’s and some crates – NICE.
