Happy Holidays to everyone. I’ve taken the first few hours of this quite Christmas Eve morning to do some planning for 2011, but now the coffee shop that I’m sitting in is starting to get loud and noisy…even through these big can headphones that I have on. I’ve got to get to the gym, so ...…
After getting sick a couple of weeks ago I have been having a heck of a time trying to gain the weight back. This morning when I hopped on the scale, I weighed an abysmal 155lbs. I haven’t been under 160 since high school and have been getting comments left and right from friends ...…
*****Editor’s Note: Today’s post is a guest article written by fat loss expert and Men’s Health Contributing Writer, Craig Ballantyne***** While interval training is better than cardio, "generic" interval training is not as good as *they* make it out to be. Seriously. By *they*, I mean the brand new trainers and generic fitness magazines ...…
It’s been a challenging few weeks at my house. Rozanne and I have had to deal with EVERYONE being sick – including ourselves – with the youngest one being hospitalized for a couple of days while he was trying to get over pneumonia. Poor little guy lost about a 1/4 of his bodyweight because he ...…
Today’s one of those days for me where I just need to get my "Zen" on. Rozanne and I spent the weekend nursing our 2 youngest kids who have come down with the flu. Joaquin (our son) has been sick with an on-again-off-again fever since last Tuesday and has probably dropped 5lbs and Mikey clocked ...…

As much as I believe that our motivation for exercise should come from a health perpective, I’m not oblivious to the fact that EVERYONE wants to look good. So when it comes ...…
OK, it’s on. I’ve interviewed the man and he’s told us why you should train like an athlete, why you need to be able to move well and why gym programs just flat out suck. So now, Geoff Neupert, Master RKC, is putting his money where his mouth is and is putting his ...…
It’s taken me about a week to get caught up with things since Orlando, but now it’s time to get back to some kettlebell training. I took last week off entirely to allow my hands to heal and to let my body recover from a gruelling RKC weekend. Now, my blisters are gone, I’ve shaved ...…
I’m writing this as I’m looking out my hotel window here in Orlando, Florida. I got up at 5am, tied up some loose ends, made myself some steak & eggs for breakfast, kissed Rozanne and the kids while they slept and was out the door by 7am. My dad took me to the airport ...…
Below is the last part of my interview with my friend Geoff Neupert, Master RKC. In today’s final instalment, Geoff talks about his Top 5 KB Exercises, why 2 KBs isn’t always better than 1 and how you can build slabs of rock hard muscle by just manipulating the variables in the OVerload Principle. Finally, ...…
