Sometimes you see stuff that is just too cool and inspiring to keep to yourself. I just “overheard” something between my friend Merle Mckenzie and one of his athletes from CrossFit Relentless, Brenda. Merle posted two pics on Facebook with this message: “Brenda I love you for what you have done to inspire women and [...]
I wanted to congratulate my friend Jen Bolduc from from CrossFit Relentless again for the AWESOME job she did at the Massachusetts State Strongman/Strongwoman Championship in the Lightweight Division. Jen absolutely CRUSHED IT! and walked home with a 1st place trophy. My caption for this pic is: “I win, I got what I came for [...]
I’ll never forget it. Back before I’d heard of CrossFit or Kettlebells – before MOST ANYONE had heard of them – I worked out in a “Globo Gym.” I know, we all did. Some of us even liked it at one time or another. This gym was special though – because the girl I was [...]

I’ve been working with some form of a Paleo or Paleolithic diet for over 6 years now. I’ve written a lot about the diet and I’ve even summed up the basics in a Paleo Primer and my Free eBook download. I’ve also been part of the Kettlebell community since 2007 and the CrossFit community since [...]

WARNING – This will probably be a weird and rambling post. In some wacky way, though, it’s probably the most important training related post I’ve ever written… IMPORTANT – WATCH THE VIDEO FIRST AND THEN READ THE POST!!!!! Just what exactly is your health worth to you? It’s worth a whole lot to me. At [...]
What’s this dude’s Fran time? I’m not sure what got me thinking about this topic. It might have been seeing old Bill “feels like Deca” Phillips on an early morning infomercial promoting his new book. Or, it might just be that I think too much… This was originally going to be a somewhat humorous post. [...]
I’m not sure what it was with Episode #33 of Robb Wolf’s Paleolithic Solution podcast, but it seemed to me it was even more loaded with good stuff than usual. Robb had a lot to say about using CrossFit workouts to become more efficient at the exercises and movements. This really got me thinking… I [...]
I don’t know if it was a coincidence or what, but I happened to read some really good stuff on Mark Sisson’s blog, Mark’s Daily Apple, last night. The two blog posts I really got into were a primer on how to increase testosterone naturally and another on vitamin D, sun exposure and dosage. The [...]
