To put it simply, we can either be rewarded for accomplishing goals and tasks or inherently enjoy the process of doing the thing that gives us these rewards. Either way, we gain (or lose) something from action. Sometimes we can also gain too much of a reward that this inherent enjoyment of something gets lost. Nothing is inherently wrong with motivation, but if that’s what your foundation is based upon, something like behavior change becomes more of a chore.
⠀
Take a step back and look at your purpose. Ground yourself on your core values, not the things you do and what you gain from it. Don’t always purely seek rewards. I can’t begin to tell you how many times during my athletic career and post-athletic career I’ve been demotivated. It was a bit easier to manage being an athlete, because my vision was more clear and I had something I wanted so badly that my actions weren’t dictated by the level of my “motivational gas tank.” Plus, my reward came the very last day of my career. I wasn’t content until then, and I did enjoy the process leading up to it because of the bigger picture of what it meant to me and what I valued.
⠀
DM me if you are having a difficult time adjusting or need to get back on track whether it’s your athletic performance, movement, or general fitness. I’d love to help in any way.
⠀
⠀

No commitment necessary. Let’s just chat! If you have general questions, want some guidance on how to create change, or are interested on how you can incorporate training into your life again, I’m here for you.
⠀
I’d love to help in any way I can. What’s stopping you from taking that next step?

Had a little hiatus with the business. ⁣

I’ve wanted to start writing for awhile now, and this one was sitting and collecting dust for a few months. I almost used it as a journal at first, jotting my thoughts down as time went on. Hopefully this can help at least one person push through whatever it is they are dealing with, whether it is the person you are coaching, teaching, mentoring, or whether that person is yourself. Things suck sometimes, but what can you do about it? Own the situation, or let it own you? ⁣
⁣
Sometimes what is needed the most in terms of finding your path and reaching your destination isn’t about exercise prescription, understanding physiology better, or the appropriate nutritional interventions. Sometimes what is stopping you is being honest with yourself, looking within, and observing what is truly preventing adherence and consistency. Those things drive results. ⁣
⁣
Sometimes our obstacles are the most important thing that need to be addressed. Managing how you approach these obstacles will help you conserve the energy you need for putting in the work necessary to change aspects of your life. ⁣

At Home Training

In light of what is currently going on, this is a FREE service.
You will get:
• A consultation and assessment over Zoom/Skype
• A 3 or 4 week program
• The option to renew after that is finished, and we can follow up and chat about whatever you want!

I’d love more than anything to meet the faces of the people who are stuck at home behind the computer screen, taking care of their children, figuring out how to alter their job performance, and are trying staying active. While it may seem difficult to normalize the situation, we still crave human interaction and can hopefully put the mind at ease through all this.

Whether you have equipment available or just you, your furniture, and a backpack full of textbooks, I’ll work with you to ensure that there is no obstacle. I’ll offer this until all of our lives get back on track.

What we offer!

Each option comes with a consultation and assessment. A coach is a guide and will be there to point you in the right direction. There are an infinite amount of cookie cutter programs out there for sure. But training is more than that.
I am here to get you to execute the tasks at hand and also create ownership. I will enforce consistency to drive results.

1) Individual Remote Training
I’ll be with you along the process and journey. We will chat biweekly and I’ll be available when you need it. We’ll hammer down every activity-based aspect of your life and lay out the steps together.

2) Custom Program Template
After we talk and get to know each other, I’ll create a 12 week program and you’ll be on your way. You’ll have all the tools necessary to take the next step moving forward.

3) At Home Training
In light of what is currently going on, this is a free service. I will still offer a consultation and assessment and create a program for you. I’d love more than anything to meet the faces of the people who are stuck at home behind the computer screen. Whether you have equipment available or just you and your living room, I’ll work with you to ensure that there is no obstacle. I’ll offer this until all of our lives get back on track. More details to follow.

This has been a long time coming.

It’s funny how when you go through big moments in life, you start to become hyperaware of the thing you know that’s holding you back. You usually hear and see the snippets of advice and endless quotes that you know are intended to drive action, which is usually one of the biggest limiters in peoples’ lives. I find it humorous, because in the field I work in and similar to other industries, we encourage people to act, but cannot figure out how act ourselves.

Sometimes, you just have to go for it. That typical old cliché comes to mind. The leap of faith.

Parallel Health and Performance is a project and a venture that I want to add in my life to continue to serve and help others to the best of my abilities.

I’ll be offering my coaching services remotely for now. Don’t look at it like it’s just another program. It’s about interaction. It’s a process. I want to help you in the road ahead. It’s not just about lifting heavy, getting jacked, and staying fit and healthy. Those things are awesome. But it’s about being resilient in every aspect of your life with an agile mindset and being consistent with it. Don’t get fancy. Just realize the work is there, and use the tools you posses to handle anything that comes your way.
