Hey guys this blog post is not super fitness related, but I wanted to share it as it might help some of you step back and see what matters the most in your life, as I often forget from time to time…… I had a chance to take my annual home visit back to Minnesota over the 4th of July Holiday. I only go home once a year, as I am acclimated to the Scottsdale/Phoenix weather…

Live each as if it’s your last because one day it will be……. Where are you on your health and fitness journey? Some of you have seen this from me before, but please do the math it’s an eye opener!

Hey guys real quick before the weekend comes up……..ask yourself 2 questions: 1. Am I in better or worse shape than I was 5 years ago? Then ask yourself…… 2. If I continue on the current path I am on, what shape will I be in 5 years from now?

I know some of you guys have heard me say this, but here it goes again……. Some people spend their entire lives on a place called “Someday Island.”  You know these people you may even be one of them saying things like: “Someday I will get in shape”, “Someday I will start eating better”, “Someday I will live a healthy life”, “Someday I will be happy with my body” and so on…… Your life is not…

Do you guys have a switch you flip when your motivation goes? I think one of the most important things you can have is a switch that turns an unmotivated day into a killer training session.
