So, went riding with Chad Friday. Had a great time but realized that after 6 months of no mountain biking the legs didn’t feel to bad going up hill, funny, I guess the training and spinning does work! The test run was successful and my shoulder felt great, I’m ready for something more serious. […]
When considering participating in a spin class, almost everyone’s initial thought is: “I am not fit enough to last a full hour in a hardcore spin class.” To this statement, we say: “Everyone had to start somewhere!” Spin classes are designed to be entertaining and all-inclusive.

I am going to train Sara right now, she came to circuit class this morning and she is a little worried about the family wedding that they are going to this weekend because she has been doing really well with her diet and smoking/drinking. I tried to give her some advice on better food choices […]
Today I am training Liz and I will say that I really enjoy training her because she really likes to be pushed and what’s to see results. One great factor that Liz has that I think will keep her focused would be her fiancé Paul, he is in pretty good shape and I think he […]
