STOP trying to be Ryan Lee!
THIS THREAD IS GEARED TO FIT PROS WHO ARE ABUSING THEIR TRUSTED FRIENDS IN THE INDUSTRY
First….if your a fit pro and you don’t like what I have to say here..TOUGH SHIT!
Let’s move on! 
So your new to the fit pro business or have been around for awhile and now are trying the online marketing end of the business.
Buckle up!
This is long, this is ‘in your face’ and it’s what I see going on in our wonderful industry…
“If there is one thing you don’t want to do, it is abuse and disrespect your list”..
You have heard that before, right?
Then why the hell isn’t anybody listening?
Prince Fielder – Vegetarian
I’m feeling happy!
This morning while logging onto my computer, I noticed an article on my Yahoo home page that told the story of Prince Fielder going vegetarian. Here is the link Prince Fielder – Vegetarian.
This is the second time in two weeks that professional athletes have made the news due to their vegetarian or vegan lifestyles and I really appreciate the attention. I know for a fact that a vegan diet can sustain a strong, athletic and muscular man because I live it but the average person scoffs at this notion. In fact people are already poking fun at Prince Fielder for his decision.
What a shame.
Oh, what I would give for some more open minds out there among the masses.
It’s ALL about the Core!
Every athlete wants to get the most out of his or her training and reach their full athletic potential. One of the most important factors in maximizing athletic performance is core strength. An athlete with a strong core is a strong athlete; it’s that simple.
Let me explain to you just what the core is and why core strength is so very important for any athlete. The core is comprised of nearly 30 different muscles that basically wrap around your body in the area between your hips and ribcage. There are a couple ways to think about this in easy terms. First of all think of your body in two halves, the lower half and the upper half. The core area is between the two and can be thought of as a ‘bridge’ that connects them. In order for the upper and lower body to work together requires that connection.
Why am I ticked off?
That is an easy question to answer….
Because I am SO tired of being used!
First, to answer MANY of your questions….’Who are you pissed off at?’
Let me tell you it is NOT the two biggest names in the online fitness marketing community that you and I have come to know so well…..they are close friends with each other and you and I are most likely on their list.
It is a handful of people who ‘think’ they are them and ‘think’ they can abuse us, both emotionally and financially.
How does it work?
After receiving so many emails about how my training works and how it can work so fast, I will provide a little glimpse into my training style used for all athletes, as well the exercises in Training For Volleyball.
First, and foremost I always look at the position an athlete plays in their respected sport. Their movement patterns, their reaction, their strengths and weaknesses.
Then, after listening to them and determinig their needs I design a functional and sport/position specific workout. FYI – This is NOT text book! ALL of my training is what we may call ‘off the wall’, but it is very effective.
Using many variations of resistance, including JC Bands, Super Bands, medicine balls, tons of balance challenging exercises as well as plyometrics is exactly how I am able to take a girl who one night was crying her eye balls out because she could not get a serve over the net to getting 8 serves over in a row after JUST ONE SESSION!
