Check out Alamo City Times for the video I did for the Springtime65 Show:

Affordable Fitness – Exercising at Home

I’d like to thank Alamo City Times for hosting the video and Roland for being patient enough to work with me while filming the video!

I know, I know. We live in a region of the country where there are two seasons – deathly hot and warm. Hey, that’s one of the reasons I chose to make San Antonio my home, so trust me when I say I’m not complaining.

I realize that the new year presents a “new beginning” and people are motivated, but the weather isn’t quite pleasant enough for most people to enjoy waking up an hour earlier to go get a workout in – right now, it’s already in the high 50s and early 60s by 5am, so the cold is not an excuse – but if a real physical change is what you’re interested in, you won’t look at things like weather or month of the year as a reason not to do what you need to do to get where you want to be.

As I was looking at my schedule for today, the last day of my 33rd year on this earth (tomorrow is my birthday :), I was thinking about the different training styles I’ll be using today: I have clients that will be working at an extremely high intensity level, some that will train like power lifters, young men preparing for athletic competition that will be utilizing plyometrics and explosive lifts, along with individuals that are just looking to improve their fitness, get ready for a wedding, or just look and feel better that I may use a variety of these styles with them. There’s no one size fits all routine, and an experienced/knowledgeable fitness trainer should know when to use which style to help each client get the most out of their routines. Notice I said when – because training within different strength, repetition and recovery thresholds is an extremely useful tool in both health/fitness enhancement and, of course, in rapid body transformation.

I have a very full slate of clients today, but I will make the time to update the Caveman Lifestyle Program Page, as I really want to get the grocery list for the different phases on the page.

You DO still have time to get leaner, more toned and defined – pool, lake, river and beach weather will be here before you know it. Don’t wait!

Just want to take a second to share a little story about something that happened to me today! Is all we go through worth it? Is fat loss and looking/feeling great really that important? Of course, your answer is very individual specific, but I know how I feel about it. Enjoy the vid!

I opened two new websites, so check them out.

The first is the Official Site for the Caveman Lifestyle Program, www.cavemanprogram.com. The Caveman Principles are those that I use for individuals that are willing to do whatever it takes to reach their extreme fitness goals. It’s a scalable program for all fitness levels and when followed closely, the results are absolutely amazing.

The other site is simply a new site that I opened for my Online Personal Trainining Service, www.thebodyguru.com. As I have mentioned in past posts: all online personal training programs include complete nutritional programs, individually designed based on condition and goals, and a variety of training principles based on whatever your goals may be. I currently work with people from all points of the fitness spectrum: from professional athletes and fitness models to stay at home mothers and college students. Whether your goal is fat loss, muscle gain, increased athletic performance, bikini body preparation (hey, it’s in HUGE demand) or something that may not seem so common, drop me a line and let’s see if we’re a match.

Check out the new sites and spread the word!

Here’s a video blog where I discuss some of the misconceptions that some women have about working out and joining a gym.

Ladies: WEIGHT TRAINING WILL NOT MAKE YOU BIG AND BULKY!!!

Here’s a quick video blog about issues a lot of people face when they want to transform their bodies. There is no easy, quick fix. First and foremost, you have to identify and alleviate any obstacles to give yourself the chance at long term body transformation and fat loss success.

Enjoy!

I do stay pretty busy all of the time, but now, with my full training schedule, online training, boot camp, and, oh yeah, family, life, relationships, etc, I don’t have a lot of time to just sit and relax.

But that’s fine. I totally believe in getting as much out of each day as I possibly can. I’m the type of person that if I leave something undone, I have a hard time sleeping at night.

Time is the single most used excuse when it comes to losing fat and changing the body, and in my opinion, it’s also the least credible. Everyone has the same 24 hours in a day. To my knowledge, no one has found a way to cross the time/space continuum and obtain more hours in a single day. There are responsibilities, demands, and chores that require more of our time than we may feel we are able to give.

The bottom line is to prioritize what’s important. If changing your body is important, you’ll find a way to put forth the effort to prepare the necessary foods and put forth the effort in the gym. If it’s not a priority, you’ll find another excuse to put it off.

As a personal trainer, I realize that my “Only Results, No Excuses” mentality may actually frighten some potential clients, and I’m totally okay with that, because I want my clients to know that when they come to me, they’re achieve what they’ve come to achieve – not waste their effort, time and money to look the same after their time with me has come and gone. I’d prefer someone that isn’t ready to be committed and that will not finish what they start not come to visit me. I suppose, if you don’t take your results serious, that Lifetime Fitness and Gold’s Gym has a personal trainer for you.

When you make the decision to make an amazing change, like so many of my clients, such as Andy, Chade, Courtney, Matt, Deron, Mike and Desiray have, there’s no just “sticking your toes in the water”. Make the decision and jump in, and reap the benefits.

Training without nutrition will do you no good. Following a fad diet without providing the stimulus to change (exercise), you’ll change your weight, but be a smaller version of yourself (my going from a big pear to a smaller pear analogy). To make a drastic change, you have to put it all together in a sensible, well planned system.

It’s not easy, but well worth it. Besides, if it WERE easy, everyone would look amazing. Only the dedicated make real progress. Are you up for it?

I’m working on a new page and video for our San Antonio Fitness Boot Camp Classes, so check back for that. I’m also going to add a few different sprint/cardio alternatives here as well.

Here’s a video blog where I discuss a few things you can do nutritionally to make a drastic impact in your fat loss. I have a lot of people that ask me how I train and since I train such a wide variety of people and everyone’s different, I touch on the things that are common factors in my clients’ training programs.

I still have a few slots open for my online personal training program, so if you’re not in San Antonio and are looking for a personal trainer, drop me a line. No matter your goal or current condition, I remove all guesswork for you.

Hope everyone’s having a great Tuesday!

Put together a quick blog on what to look for in a personal trainer. I’ve had several people ask me about specific trainers or places to train, and I think this will assist those people in making a decision!
