February 14th is here, 6 weeks into the new year. How are your health and fitness goals going? (going, going, gone….?) The large (very large) majority of people do not stick with habit changes. This is especially the case with exercise….and is even more the case with nutrition changes!
I want to give a shout out to several of my veteran clients (i.e. no longer rookies). They are a great picture of how people can change and get better no matter how many birthdays they have celebrated.
Below is a highlight video from my Real Age Reduction training session. It is amazing to see what my clients can do. They have gained a high level of function and strength. I often remind them to look around and become aware of their peers. I say “how many other 70 year old people can do what you do”? Some of the people in this video have been training for years. As I keep challenging them, they keep progressing.

Exercise and training should make people feel, look, and perform better. If any training method makes people feel chronically drained, have beat up injuries/joints, or does not produce life changing results then it should be revised or abandoned. After writing these statement they seem pretty common sense and straight forward. However, I was reminded lately how, in practice, few people in our culture believe them.
For most people exercise and fitness are used to achieve a cosmetic goal (like losing weight or getting abs). In the pursuit of this cosmetic goal people often sacrifice longevity and set themselves up for chronic injuries. After months or years, people might see some progress towards their goals, but the tax on their body is high. Short term gains for a big chronic debt of joint pain and injuries. Most exercise programs are a horrible investment!
My training has always aimed at giving people good short and long term results. My clients are able to lose weight, reduce their biological age, get stronger, while also overcoming many long term joint injuries. Above is a sneak peak into some of my training methods.

I first met this amazing lady named Sylvia 3+ years ago. When we first started working together, she was quickly losing her ability to walk because of back pain (post surgical back pain). She could barely walk to her mailbox and was getting used to the idea of using a walker and wheelchair.
A few months after she started training with me her pain greatly decreased and she got her ability to walk back. Sylvia was so happy to stand on her own two feet again! She turned into a long term client and continues to progress in her fitness despite some setbacks and challenges.
She is now fit enough to pursue one of her dreams. Sylvia went on an international mission trip.
I received this email when she was out of the country:
“We are back from building our first house! I want you to know I kept up with everyone! I’ll have pictures when everyone shares their photos. We carried all the tools hat we needed to build the house: two ladders, three drills, chain saw, skill saw, hammers, shovel, three post hole diggers, hammers, nails, etc. The tin and wood were already on site. The hill was a “road” with LOTS of deep ruts, very slippery, it had poured the night before, 200-300 yards long, VERY steep. The guys said it was probably longer that two football fields. I carried a hoe/pick about 6 foot long, which helped me from slipping. It must have weight 10-20 pounds. This was going down. I didn’t carry anything but my back pack climbing back up, It was harder to breathe coming back up, then I learned we were 7,000 ft about sea level! But I kept up with everyone pretty good. I recovered quickly anyway!
I would never had made it without your exercises! Thank you for that!
The first day it poured going to the mission house about 1:30 drive. And like normal, in a third world country, when it really storms the power goes out, so we could not shower, flush toilets, no WiFi, etc. But it came on about 2:30 in the morning. WiFi came on a little later. Supper is ready for us now, we have WiFi here at the mission house.
Hi to everyone!”
Fitness is freedom. It is hard to live one’s life purpose without strength, health, and energy!

Back pain…it is an energy vampire. Having health and fitness requires a back that is conditioned to accept movement, load, and life. The large majority of adults will experience back pain sometime in their life. For some people their pain becomes chronic. It starts to greatly effect what they can do both inside and outside the gym.
Luckily, a great deal of time and research has been done on the biomechanics of back pain. I find that when clients learn the reason why their back hurts and what causes their pain everything changes. The thought of their pain mysteriously “coming and going” is replaced with an understanding of pain triggers and how to avoid them. In this video a client talks about modifications we made outside of the gym so she could get out of her back pain woes and start working out again. Building strength and fitness on top of a happy back has changed her life!
