Reflections from my Strongman act in Lake George, the foundation and the mindset

I’m writing this from a hotel room in Lake George before my strongman act combined with an inspirational speech tomorrow morning but won’t post  this until I get home.

It was a crazy drive up here going through snow and freezing rain.  Knowing that the drive was going to be treacherous my wife displayed her displeasure at me going.  I told her I said I was going to be here and that’s all there is to it.

What does any of this have to do with strength, health and fitness?  I’ll tell you 🙂

First, is the foundation.  The future of your fitness and health is built upon the foundation that you set early on.  That’s why in my system of training I analyze the way you move, because if we program on top of a faulty foundation, everything above it will also be faulty.  In the case of me being a motivational speaker, one of the biggest fears that meeting planners have when they hire a speaker is whether or not they will show up in the first place.  It’s important for my reputation early on that I’m a man of my word.

Second is about the mindset that leads to successful transformations. You see with the right mindset, a mindset that is committed to making it happen that’s where success is built.  As a matter of fact, I turn people away if I don’t think they are committed to their own goals, simply because if you aren’t committed, there is nothing I can do to help you.

Tomorrow morning (today by the time this is posted) I have a group of teenagers that I am determined to inspire.  I was not going to let neither a snowflake, nor a legion of them stop me.  Do what it takes, it’s that simple.

If you need guidance from a personal trainer in Boonton Township or Mountain Lakes New Jersey who actually knows what they’re doing, and are committed to your own goals, I welcome you to test drive my training program.
