Champions!!!

Fight! Survive! Fight! Survive! Are you willing to endure the pain it takes to become victorious. Are you aware that your opponents would die at the chance to beat you. Muscles filled with poison, body feels like rubber, light headed, can't see straight, heart about to explode, legs want to fall off, can't straighten my arms, can't hold onto anything.....are you ready for that?????

With all that I am........HELL YEAH!!! BRING IT!!!

Meet Caroline Durbin

Caroling has been working with me for 6 weeks now. She is graduating from Westlake High School in a few weeks and will be playing basketball for the University of New Mexico this coming fall. She came to me wanting to get stronger and more explosive......needless to say, mission accomplished! She has had tremendous gains in all of her Oly lifts, squats, presses, and also has gained some metabolic conditioning to go with it. Not bad, huh.
Great job Caroline, keep working hard! You will surely do great things at New Mexico.

Scenes From "Generation Kill"

Not your average motivating war movie, but I figured why not? If I were to post scenes from "Gladiator" or "300, The Movie" would that be any different?

What Are You Worth...

From my buddy Spencer's blog. I have pondered this question many times, what am I worth. But, most importantly, am I willing to take the hit to find out.

I WILL DIE TO FIND OUT!

The Spartan 300 Kickoff

The Spartan 300 Challenge kicked off Sat and what an amazing turnout by everyone. Great job to all the competitors, and a special thanks to all the volunteers who helped out, we really could not have done it without you.

I am committing myself to the same standards that I am requiring from my athletes. My number one goal is to optimize my performance, so nutrition is going to be the major role in doing so. Back to weighing and measuring, no more gorging out with almond butter and apples anymore(my desert:)!) Making sleep a priority, and sticking with the program the Jeremy and I are going to lay out for the next 8 weeks!

All these I must do if I am going to be able to look in the mirror going into the Games and truly tell myself I have done everything I can to give myself the best opportunity to do my best. Cheesy, cliche, lame, whatever..... my reality and I love it!

My Life

I am grateful for what I have, for where I am at in life, but most importantly where I am going. I understand that my biography is not my destiny. The potential is limitless, and I only attract people that are heading in the same direction. I seek those who can lead me in the right direction. I have dropped my ego, and will learn from anyone who can give me knowledge that will make me a better person. I use everyday, cause I know that this present moment is the only thing that ever exists. If I don't understand that, then I have lost the war.
