Maybe I’m just an old man… but I’m really, REALLY over these silly “Gung Ho” challenges that have 100 pull-ups, 100 burpees, 80 lunges, blah, blah, blah. Unless you’re an insane, freakish athlete… NO ONE can do 100 pull-ups with perfect form. Seeing this madness, I decided to put together this list of exercises to […]…
This is politically incorrect. The grumpy old man is back 🙁 “Meme” Rant This past week, I saw another cheesy “motivational” meme yet again. This time it was a girl in a sports bra taking a selfie. The text showed something like “You Have to Want It”. How is that motivating? It’s stupid. Want what? Attention? […]…
Yesterday morning, around 9:30, I went for a nice 45-minute walk. I almost melted. Here in GA, it was around 88 degrees already with a humidity of 1.4 billion…. gagillion percent. I thought I beat the heat, but my late start paid the price. You see, I like to stay active on my “off” days, […]…
Feel free to print this out as a simple reminder. Now let me straight up with you… you won’t see things like “walking on a treadmill” or “riding a stationary bike while watching an episode of ‘Friends’ (the one where Ross and Rachel are having issues). “Mikey, isn’t that every episode of Friends”? Sure is. That’s […]…
I’m over it. And by “it”, I mean this stuff… “My workouts are better because they burn 3.4 billion gagillion calories in just 2 minutes!” “This program works because it works with your ab-doo-la-aman-gata. Your ab-doo-la-aman-gata is the “secret” hormone that burns fat. This is a made-up word I came up with that sounds really […]…
5 in a row… can’t believe that. I am on my way home from the 5th TT Summit where I got to celebrate my friend Craig Ballantyne’s 40th birthday party with cake. Then I topped it off with some pancakes just before I headed out. Look, I don’t feel the greatest because I didn’t make the […]…
You’re free to steal this, ok? Although, I recommend you tweak it based on your lifestyle. About 2 years ago, I shared the “11 Rules I Live By” that makes my life so much easier and it can do the same for you. Think about this for a second… if you had some clear, simple rules that you […]…
What an amazing wedding this past weekend in South Carolina. I got to see my buddy Daniel Woodrum and his beautiful wife Brittney “tie the knot”. I’ve known “D-Wood” for about 4 years now and I still remember him telling me, “I think she’s the one”. That was running through my head when they came down the […]…
