Dallas workshop

Just sitting here at the Dallas airport waiting for my flight to Detroit. I was hoping to blog before today, but I was totally exhausted after Saturday's and Sunday's training days! Steve and his team of trainers really worked us hard; we went from 9:30 am to 6 pm both days, with only a 40 minute lunch break/rest and recovery period. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad these Strength Coaching seminars provide 'hands on' training because I would be really bored just sitting in a classroom-style workshop....however looking back, I probably would have opted for a lecture on his segment of 'overhead' Kettlebell squats....of which I probably did close to 500 of!!! I felt that particular exercise in every single muscle fiber in my body....all of which are crying with pain today! The 3 and 1/2 hour plane ride to Detroit should really loosen things up! LOL!

I learned so many new exercises and new techniques to improve fitness performance ....I'm so excited to get back to share them with every one - I think all of my clients and circuit training members are getting a little nervous right now! :-)

I took some amazing pictures and my friend Monica Brant shot some video footage for her realilty DVD series; she's going to send me a copy that I can share with every one at Bernardo Karate!.....you won't believe some of the 'feats of strength' Steve Cotter and his crew performed....unbelieveable exercises that I can't even describe. I really could not believe what I was seeing. Pretty amazing actually. I'll post some pictures in our photo gallery some time this week.

By the way....I jinxed myself....the weather turned really cold on Saturday and Sunday; and of course it's a bit warmer today, because I'm leaving the State!

Hope everyone is off to an amazing start to 2009 and motivated to accomplish all of your goals and conquer any challenges that come your way! Looking forward to seeing all of you this week!

Have a great Monday!
