Your answer isn’t found in a Paleo lifestyle… that’s fake. No one lives Paleo. That would require hunting or fishing outside of a grocery store and let’s be real. Your answer isn’t found in fasting. Your answer isn’t found in Keto, Carnivore, veganism, gluten free (scam of the century), etc.
Read MoreCreated by my friend, Andre Miller, The Roots Model, among other things, is a great way to describe and train the web of human movement. The model is like a blueprint for all things human movement.
Read MoreAlmost 17 years trying to help folks better themselves. 12 of those years spent working with athletes of all kinds.
Read MoreI’ve worked with a lot of coaches over the years. Coaches to help me be a better coach, seminars, workshops, certification courses, spiritual coaches, mental coaches, business coaches, I’ve paid other coaches to train me so I could get an outside set of eyes on my own movement, etc.
Read MoreI’m training Tyler Ramirez and Ethan Huerta. Tyler is a college wrestler I’ve been training since he was a freshman in high school. Ethan is a high school wrestler (junior) who has been training with me since he was a freshman.
Read MoreIt’s just the three of us. Three generations of movers, educators. Three men doing nothing more in life than attempting to show our fellow humans that there is a better way; that there is a deeper side to all of us; that compassion and love will take one much further through life than fear and hate.
Read MoreThere is something beautiful about taking everything you know about a subject and turning it completely on its head. The depth of our attachment to that “thing” might make the task seem impossible. Some of us identify hard with the thing we do. Our ego never wants to be wrong.
Read MoreA handful of years ago, I was introduced to a concept called cold water dousing by a good buddy of mine. It’s a simple chore, really. Ice in a bucket, fill it with water, ice melts down a bit, pour it over your body. When I started this practice, it was winter time so we saved money on ice. I thought the guy was crazy when he threw the idea my way, but I went with it.
Read MoreCurrently, there is a virus that has spread across the globe. Seems as if healthier individuals are not taking as much heat as most. That seems to be the norm with most health issues in the world. The better a person takes care of themselves, the less chance there is for them to fall victim to illness. Who would have thought? It feels weird having to say that.
Read MoreIf you know me well, you know that most days, I don't eat my first meal until well after 12pm. Especially, if I went hard the night before.
I don't follow any nonsensical programming or stick to a certain time period...I eat when I'm, HONESTLY, hungry. Sometimes, I push those limits...just because. I've been known to eat my first meal as late as 4 or 5pm. This is really no different than pushing a little further into a long run or bike ride. Extending a training session just to see how far you can push yourself.
Read MoreI was fasting intermittently long before the trendy name and numerous protocols came about. I've never been on any type of I.F. "program" and never really gave it any thought, I just don't eat unless I am hungry. Crazy concept, I know. Most people stuff their faces long before it's time to refuel. When the fuel tank is full and you keep fueling, bad things come about.
Read MoreNothing takes me away from the end goal and gets me focused on the immediate task at hand or next step like working a balance beam. The second I begin to think about getting to the end of the beam is the second that everything goes awry. I either fall or my physical effort must increase significantly to keep me from falling....neither of which are ideal.
