Wow! This week's Meltdown Motivation Call really hit home for me and I hope our new bootcampers were listening. Adam dissected the cheat system incorporated into the Meltdown Plan and explains the though process behind it. 

As a "vet" in the program, I heard some great reminders of how to really use my "cheats" to max out my efforts. Looking forward to a tough lifting session on Sunday and a nice cheat meal! Read more »

Everyone got dressed up in their best Disco outfit and came in for a workout and a silent auction to raise money for breast cancer research. We ended up raising over $7,000 in ONE NIGHT.  This year we wanted to up the ante. Read more »

I haven't Blogged in a while so I wanted to update you guys on something I'm really excited about. I'm creating several new structured programs that our clients can follow along with. Each program will have a different focus point along with secondary focus points as well.

When I work out I don't just "lift weights" or "do cardio". I ALWAYS have a goal in mind and specific program to reach that goal....ALWAYS. I want to teach you guys this concept because it keeps you focused and you can see your progress as you go along. Read more »

So if you are past the age of 30 (no idea what that is in bear years) chances are you don't get I.D.'d that much anymore, or at least I don't, but recently I was, and when ya do many of you might agree it's a moment of excitement but this time it was even more exciting as the police officer ahem security guard did a double take. Look at I.D., Look at me, Look at I.D. look at me and then made the comment "lost some weight". Read more »

Caught a post on FB by fellow Meltdowner Eugene Hopkins. He went to King's Island this past weekend with family and mentioned about fitting a lot better on the rides. Boy did this strike a note and something I have not shared with anyone until today. I too was at Kings Island back in 2008 and it was an absolutely horrible day that I remember all too well. I waited in line with family to ride a roller coaster for what seemed like an eternity. Read more »
