Homestretch!!

He's coming! He's coming!

I'm not providing any practical take-home 'information' today or posting testimonials to highlight how great I am (lol). Nor am I going to do any ranting today ... but now that I mention it, stay tuned, because I have a few coming.

Today instead I wanted to post a picture of my VERY pregnant wife. We're in the homestretch of the pregnancy and our new son will be here very shortly. We can't wait.



This pregnancy has gone by much faster than the first. The first pregnancy took about 5 years, at least that's how long it felt. I thought Alyssa would never... read more 21 comments

Yet Another Long-Term LBC Client Testimonial

Here is a another new testimonial from long-term client (in fact, I believe she is my longest standing client at nearly 5 years!!!) and good friend Molly.

----------

I sat down to write this, trying to find the words to explain that Erik literally changed my life.  I know that sounds a bit extreme but it is the truth nonetheless.  I started out my fitness journey having some exercise experience, but no real purpose or science behind it.  In a matter of a few short months I had made great physical changes and in a few more I had made amazing mental changes as well.  I went from wanting to lose weight to being motivated to build muscles... read more 0 comments

Sandi Stuart - I'm Not A SuperHero

I'M NOT A SUPERHERO (and other middle-of-the-night ramblings)

I had to make a difficult decision today. As much as I wanted to compete in NY, I don't think it's a good idea. COULD I do it? Yes. SHOULD I do it? Probably not. As much as I like to pretend I'm superhuman and able to push myself beyond the limits of what is reasonable, deep down, I know that sometimes enough is enough.  Two shows two weeks apart is a huge drain on the body, and with a job as serious as mine, I can't afford NOT to be 'on' at work. As much as I'd like to be selfish and say, 'Heck, I'm gonna do what I want... read more 5 comments
