When we bring up diet, most of the time it is in regards to fat loss or body composition. That is why when the general population says, “Hey Veronica, I am going on a diet” we can assume that means that person is trying to lose some unwanted... Read More

Perform Better Meeting of the Minds: Live Blog

I am here in Arizona for the 2011 Perform Better Meeting of the Minds. Mike Boyle and I flew up this morning while there was snow on the ground in Massachusetts and landed to 80 degree weather with clear skies. There was one major let down though, the water park is only open on Saturday and Sunday! Anyways for the whole weekend I will CONSTANTLY be updating this post with thoughts... Read More

3 Deadly Complexes For Fat Loss and Conditioning

How do people go to the gym day after day and do the same 30 minute workout on the elliptical machine? Honestly I would rather do some sprints in the parking lot outside of a 7/11 in a rival gang’s territory at 2am with nothing on but a game worn jock strap from Terry Tate. No, but seriously, I would rather challenge myself and do something different every time. That is where... Read More

Kevin’s Supplement Rule Book

Supplementation is how we cover all of the bases nutritionally. Don’t eat fish? Buy some fish oil. Never go outside, or live in Alaska (I hear you can see Russia for there)? Take some Vitamin D. They are called, “supplements” because we are replacing something we are not getting naturally. Proper supplementation can significantly benefit your health and help you keep up when... Read More

Review: Eat Stop Eat (The Ultimate Intermittent Fasting Guide)

Intermittent Fasting is the new hotness these days. But believe it or not, Brad Pilon was ahead of the pack back in 2005 when he wrote Eat Stop Eat. And I will be 100% honest, I was fully on board with the, “You need to eat 6 meals a day to increase caloric expenditure. and keep the fire stoked.” Remember all of that? Now study after study is coming out debunking that (and... Read More

Review: Fitness Business BluePrint (You Need to Get This…Now!)

As you have noticed these last few years, I really don’t review many products or promote much. Usually it is because a lot of the stuff out there doesn’t blow me away enough that I think I should tell people about it. The Fitness Business Blueprint is the MOST IMPORTANT EDUCATIONAL RESOURCE this year. My jaw literally dropped when I saw everything that was included and... Read More

Reassessing Myself and How I am Fixing it

I am going to be completely honest,  the last 60-70 days have been a shit show for me. Personally, professionally, and physically. My quality of sleep has been poor, I haven’t been able to get as much work done as I would like, and my training sessions could be classified as unstructured. Some would call it a, “rut” (definition: 1. A sunken track or groove made... Read More
