The New Buzz About Old Stuff

So I've been seeing a lot of new buzz lately about barefoot training...I remember back to when I first started barefoot training, it was 1982, at my karate school. Same with other training -cardio, boxing, wrestling, judo, jiu-jitsu, mobility, flexibility, core, functional, total body, high intensity, circuit, etc...

In 1986, I got my first class in Muay Thai and got my ass kicked by this new weird way of kickboxing.

Then in 1997, I received training in ropes, kettlebells, medicine balls, indian clubs, dumbbells and plyometrics. That is also when I became a certified endurance sports trainer.

In 1982, I also started my journey with the diets and nutrition stuff  as well- high carb, low carb, high protein, ketogenic, organic, raw, supplements, anabolic, vitamins, herbs....I also ran my first small group training class.

None of the stuff back then had any serious popularity or "buzz". We just did learned it and did it and it became the norm. So the old saying "I was doing cool stuff before it became cool" is the case. How times change.

I'm not the new kid in town. If you want a different perspective on the new buzz methods, that aren't really new, come by the Columbus studio and see some old applications of the new stuff, in a way that is time tested and proven to work.

If I only knew back then...

Is It Possible? Burn Fat, Build Muscle And Increase Your Performance At The Same Time

Most traditional fitness programs are centered around a theme. There are weight loss programs, body transformation programs, sports / performance enhancement programs, muscle building programs, lifestyle enrichment programs and programs to work on specific trouble areas of the body (hips/buns/thighs etc...). If you train with me or have trained with me, you know that my program is anything but traditional. I don't believe in having different programs to do all of the mentioned stuff above.

With my program, you work on all of those areas at the same time. Efficiency and functionality are my themes. Getting the most bang for the buck and the hour are important in today's time crunched world. Dynamic, total body, multi-joint, compound movements have been proven to be more effective at achieving the greatest amount of benefits in the shortest amount of time. Heavy strength training, metabolic resistance training, targeted fat loss cardio and supportive nutrition have proven, time and time again, over the years, to increase performance and overall health, burn fat and build muscle, all at the same time. Not only does my program cover all of the areas but the functionality of it carries over into daily life activities, regardless of who you are -be it an airborne ranger or a housewife.  Also, the time it takes to achieve these goals in the different areas are minimized, provided that you follow the program and eat right. 

So stop wasting time and money trying to find an easy out. There is no easy way to achieve great things. Your issues and bad habits didn't pop up yesterday. There is a time factor required to make things right. It can be shortened in a healthy way. You must earn it by traveling down the right path and by negotiating the obstacles that stand before you. Let me guide you down the path. Follow the way to become lean, strong and fast -sooner rather than later. It is totally possible and it's proven by my clients daily. So when the masses say it can't be done - I say bullshit -I do it everyday and so can you.
