The omicron cadre graduating class from earlier this year. In August, I’ll be flying out to Bellingham, WA to learn from and train with some of the best minds in fitness in the world. I’ll be attending my first Circular Strength Training Certification Seminar. This is really exciting for me not only because [...]  zombie or alien? I think we can rule human out... I read an article not too long ago that was explaining what a world full of zombies would be like – literally, a Zombie Nation full of brain dead zombies. Not too long after that, I read a short article titled “We Live in a Zoo.” Just today, I read an article explaining us as aliens on our own planet! These are from three different authors, mind you. Coincidence? I think not. It’s merely an illusion of coincidence. Well, I’ve taken this theme to heart and have come up with my own interpretation of the modern world we live in. Here’s is a glimpse into the zombie nation, the human zoo, and the aliens at home environment… I’m going to piggy-back the 100 Day Challenge idea that my coach, Scott Sonnon presented on his FlowCoach Blog. The idea is simple: take the next 100 days to achieve your goals and focus on making positive changes in your life each and everyday. Sounds simple enough, right?

I plan on applying this 100 day challenge to many areas of my life: 1) physical goals I will use this blog to chronicle my progress towards my physical and athletic goals as best as possible by providing updates via my training journal. I’d love for you to join me, so that we can work together to make positive changes in our lives one day at a time. Here are the details and my instructions… The 100 Day Challenge Start Date: April 10, 2009 If you want to participate, then you need to write a list of goals down and some action steps to achieve them.

While my methods may be outlandish in today’s age, I base all of my training on timeless principles that have been proven to work again and again.
