Phoenix Personal Training, ppt

What are you going to do to improve you?

Even in the dark making night sessions work on or off the bus flexibility for my clients.

Every day will not always be Perfect some days you will falter, you just have to get back up dust off and push again. Progress is not perfection. Progress is moving forward doing a little bit more than yesterday. True perfection is unattainable. Progress you can make every single day. Set your mind right and work towards your next goal.

I truly love helping people.
Giving them my time and effort.

Helping them reach there goals.
Because at the end of my day its not as much about how much did I make, its soooo much more about did I improve someones day.
I get cards like this often and this is part of why I do what I do. Impacting people in a positive way every day is so rewarding.

Always here to help those who want it, even on days its hard.

Today was a meal prep day, Long hours during the weekdays meal prep is essential.
Beef stew with cheddar bay / batter bay biscuits, Pork tenderloin with the basmati rice and green beans.

How do you make your healthy meals easier? 

First day back to racing. Its been too long but felt good, here is to rising up again, starting again.
Never giving up. More races to come more limits to push.
I look at Obstacle course racing as I look at life, sure somethings are hard sometimes there are obstacles put in your way. Thats never a reason to just give up. The true Warrior in you does not just walk away. You fight, you persist, you over come those days its hard. Because then and only then are you truly accomplished.
Never give up it will only bring regret.

Its been a while sense I have updated this. But showing consistency is key to success. Nowhere close to my goal but still moving forward.
Plus 4 years back to my life sense tracking.

What are you doing for your self ? 

The convenience of driving my own gym? A workout when ever I have a free sec. 

5:am Early morning session off the bus.

How does your day start?

First client of the day. 5:30am
We have but one life to live and I plan to do just that and I plan to help as many as I can along the way so if it means up with the moom still high in the Sky so be it. My purpose in life is greater then has fully been discovered. Have an amazing day to everyone. 

Profound thoughts with this post.
We are in crazy time’s in everything that is going on in the World, in your communities, in your own home.
Taking to little time to see bigger pictures, to look at things from all sides. 
If you only look at one side of things your missing out. Todays social media, TV, have made many forget what the wizard of Oz showed us clearly even way back when. Look behind the curtain, look past the smoke and noise. 
How many friends have you lost taking sides with out really knowing the full story or the other side of each person? How many times did you make a judgment about a post with out understanding all parts of that story??
Please as I share this with you think of how maybe you need to remember to look at all sides of things not just one side.

This simple image I took from another post and broke it down to help people think about perspective. If you only look at one side you will miss soooo much more. 

The first Image of the perfect Apple and all the greatness it could represent.
The Second of an apple chewed discolored used and abused. The last shows it truly one in the same but depending on what story wants to be told its easy to manipulator to have you think one way.
So if you Believe only one side of what the media shows you remember there could be another side.
Remember this if one friend tells you something about another if you don’t hear both sides you could be missing a truth you need.
And so on and so on.

Take the time to always look at the bigger picture in everything don’t let someone manipulate you with 1/2 a story.
Be better to everyone. 

Using my Monkey Feet to add more to my leg day. This versatile tool allows you to use weights you already have to ramp up leg day with more movement patterns then machined exercises. 
What do you do to keep your workouts fresh?

In between classes its time for a little core in the door….. frame that is.
People always ask when I get my personal workouts in. The answer, When ever I can. Sets and reps between classes or waiting for clients. Its just as easy to find time as it is to find excuses. I choose to find the time.
If you struggle to find time then make it easy. A few squats first thing in the morning maybe some pushups in between what ever your doing. There truly is always time to do more then you are now.
Its your choice make time count for you or make excuses why you can’t. 

Todays workout 1 min on 1 off each exercise 4 rounds through each exercise.

What are you doing today??

Making time for personal health. With such a rough last year and start to this year I had been putting medical care to the side.
Now finding Mosaic Theory and DR Anusha Khan, I am getting my self back on track.

Sure I work out all the time and eat “ healthy”
but with my past history as a cancer survivor.
My Family history of High blood pressure and high cholesterol, both of which you can’t see with out checking.

Having blood work done my cholesterol is way to high and blood pressure also elevated.
Cholesterol at 257 or HDL 58 and LDL 184
More needs to change. So back to cutting eggs out adding in more oats etc…
Blood pressure at 141/97 stress etc……

So I was already on a good down trend with my weight now its time to make sure all the inside things are taken care of as well.
I will post progress and if its been a while get your physical done. Don’t let things go to long.

I know what I need to do and how to do it sometimes we let life get in the way.

If health care costs are to high for you I get it and why I was happy to find Music Theory & Dr Khan
Finally a health care that works and does not keep me from wanting to get checked what I know I need to.

I hope you all do the same. 

Busting out at Saturday workout! 
45 min 4 rounds One minute for exercise. What are you gonna do today??? 

Meal prep weekend breakfast bowls,
Eggs, sausage, green onions peppers cherry tomatoes.
As I continue to cut weight and build muscle games
Eliminating the carbs from the breakfast burritos made last week.

Using meal prep helps with a busy work schedule, out the door initially 4:45am most days and finishing many days between 8:30-10:pm.
Also meal prepping this was helps with portion control. Its not as easy to pull off with Younger kids which I 100% understand but it still can.

What do you do to help reach your goals?
What are your healthy tricks? 
What do you struggle with?



Today was a meal prep day. With a Busy work schedule just like most out there but goals to reach meal prep sure helps. I back slide some times as well when don’t do my meal prep.
I would rather spend one day in the kitchen making the majority of the meal with some possible quick add-ons for an individual day.
So here is an example of a few things.
Breakfast style burritos.
Chili little beef with more emphasis on beans and vegetables.
Even prepping my protein shakes, because there’s a few extras that I add in and it’s so much easier to just dump in the container premixed and I have to scoop everything out every morning.

What is it you do to make sure you’re getting good nutritious meals in a timely manner to prevent fast processed foods????? 

The proof is in the results. A little over 6 pounds down in the past 16 days. 

Working Core and grip thanks to Rocky Mountain Climbing gear.
The only limitations to exercise I can provide on this bus is my imagination. So many possibilities.
