I've decided to start a new fitness blog. What's inspired me to do this has been all of the questions that I've been continuing to get from friends, family and clients about fitness, working out, and nutrition. I find myself repeating myself quite a bit. I don't mind, but I thought that maybe I could create a way to continue to offer insight and resources for people to get the info they need to reach their health and fitness goals.
One thing that has become, for want of a better term, an epidemic in the fitness industry is all of the misinformation that's out there. In 2008 The fitness industry was $19,000,000,000 industry (http://clubindustry.com/statistics/). Crazy, I know. I think that's part of the problem. As a friend of mine once put it, "I've never seen a big pile of money without an illegal act nearby." That 19 billion dollars are part of what drives a great deal of the misinformation. You know, sales, gimmicks, hype, selling the dream.
My training philosophy has been no nonsense and I want to use this blog to help provide some of that no nonsense info. I really do want to help people reach their goals and it pains me when they invest in the hype that doesn't produce. By the way, I've been a victim of the misinformation and in my enthusiasm probably even spread some of it. That's what this is all about, trying to work through all of this info, products, reports and hogwash. Let me tell you what I know, what's my opinion, and what I don't know so that you can approach your fitness goals better informed.

Here's some stuff that I think will provide some real information:
