One of the things I LOVE about being part of Strong is the New Skinny is all the incredible people I get to meet. My new friend Linda McFeeters just happened to post on SINS about her training goals and a bunch of weight she lost. I can be pretty impulsive at times and I [...]
A wise ape once told me that if I wasn’t getting hate mail no one was reading my stuff. Well, people are reading my stuff! Actually, it really isn’t all that bad. I get about 20 positive responses to what I write for each negative one. It’s funny that we always focus on the negative [...]
Needless to say, Marsha Tieken Christensen and I are overwhelmed and thrilled at the success of “Strong is the New Skinny.” SO many people have gotten behind the movement and support it. The Facebook group has over 5,600 members at the time of this writing and the original “Strong is the New Skinny” blog post [...]

Or, it might just be that I think too much… This was originally going to be a somewhat humorous post. [...]
“I never thought I was going to end up here.” I’ve been saying that A LOT lately. Today I said it about my diet. About 10 years ago I was at the peak of my bodybuilding lifestyle. I was weighing EVERYTHING that went into my mouth, training hard, working in a Vitamin World store and [...]
I had a really interesting experience today. I vaguely know someone who’s in the mainstream fitness and bodybuilding industry and I contacted this person about possibly talking to a friend of mine who is considering fitness modeling as a career choice. Now, my friend is still in High School and is looking into careers for [...]
There’s a question I ask myself over and over again: “How do you become outstanding?” I ask myself that question about a lot of different topics. For the most part though, I ask myself that question with respect to physical training – martial arts, CrossFit and Kettlebells. I firmly believe that the right behaviors repeated [...]
Kettlebells will change everything in fitness and strength training. So will CrossFit. Mixed Martial Arts will forever change the martial arts landscape AND the fitness world.
