[Warning, this is not a normal post about exercise or food. It gets a little weird and silly in places, so if you don't feel like reading it, no hard feelings, there will be more talk about exercise and food coming later in the week.] Whenever possible, I try to take at least a small part of each Wednesday (at least an hour, hopefully much more) for redirection, goal setting, … [Read more...] about Strategy Wednesday: A Visit to the Floatation Tanks…

Ask GiryaGirl: YOUR Questions About Push Ups, Flags, Neuro-Grips, Hip Hinges, Youngevity?
Been meaning to compile some of these for a while. A number of regular readers of this site send really good questions via email and they are usually things that others will want to know too. This is just barely scratching the surface, but here we go! Q: Is it better to do push ups from kettlebell handles or should I just do regular ones? A: I wouldn’t say “better” … [Read more...] about Ask GiryaGirl: YOUR Questions About Push Ups, Flags, Neuro-Grips, Hip Hinges, Youngevity?
Hyperwear Hyper Vest Pro Unisex 10lb Weight Vest
Hyperwear sent me this incredibly cool weight vest for review, and I'm very happy to say that it has performed beyond my expectations. First, a confession--to do weighted bodyweight exercises like pull ups I've either hung a kettlebell off of one foot, or two light light ones (one on each foot), OR as when training for the Iron Maiden Challenge (which WILL be attempted … [Read more...] about Hyperwear Hyper Vest Pro Unisex 10lb Weight Vest

Active Rest Can Be a LOT of Fun!
Dear Northern Friends, Sorry to gloat about the good weather we are having this weekend, but it was so nice outside today that a friend and I decided to walk to a nearby park and set up our slacklines. The very cool thing was also realizing that the next time, we could pick up picnic items on the way and really turn it into a day long outdoor fun time. Can't complain … [Read more...] about Active Rest Can Be a LOT of Fun!
Product Review: Triton Nutrition Vital Vegan Protein – Vanilla
As many of you know, I'm more of a food person than a supplements person. However, the convenience of making the occasional shake as a snack or quick breakfast cannot be denied. Of course, what the shake is made from is of the utmost importance. Recently in San Diego, I met one of the heads of the new company, Triton Nutrition, he was attending (and excelling greatly at) … [Read more...] about Product Review: Triton Nutrition Vital Vegan Protein – Vanilla
Beyond Organic Fine Italian Chocolate with Probiotics and Omega 3s
Beyond Organic chocolate bars - glad I got a photo of 2 of them together - they disappear so quickly that this is a somewhat rare photo. They come in small boxes of 12, which might sound like a lot to you - this is an illusion. Each bar is 1.2oz or 35g which is both a blessing and a curse - on one hand, if you are a very good friend, you can snap one in half and there's a … [Read more...] about Beyond Organic Fine Italian Chocolate with Probiotics and Omega 3s
October Primal Move Workshops, Travel, and a Neat New Exercise Tool
It's been an incredible month—and it isn't even over yet! First of all, I led 2 Primal Move Instructor Certification Workshops—One in Vienna, Virginia at the amazing "Tyson's Playground" athletic training facility, and the other in Cartersville, GA at Beth and Russell Andrews' wonderful Maximum Body Training. Also in Georgia, I was able to help Beth a little at the HKC … [Read more...] about October Primal Move Workshops, Travel, and a Neat New Exercise Tool
Woah it’s been a while! Outsourcing, NYC, Al Kavadlo, Equinox, RKC Love and MORE!
Wow, I feel like a slacker after I see how long it's been since I've made a blog post. There are so many sitting in the queue half-finished right now that it's a bit embarrassing. Needless to say a lot is going on, and thanks to a well placed "inspired by the 4-Hour Work Week" article in an airline magazine, I've decided to experiment further with outsourcing. The … [Read more...] about Woah it’s been a while! Outsourcing, NYC, Al Kavadlo, Equinox, RKC Love and MORE!
Brutally Honest Beyond Organic Food Product Tasting Notes
OK! Seeing as my Beyond Organic Founder's Pack arrived JUST IN TIME for Thanksgiving - which negated my plans I had had for a "come and try this stuff out" BBQ (which will still happen, but I may need to re-order before then). Let's get started! The Chocolate As you may have seen in the unpacking video, the bars are on the small side (35g) which is actually a … [Read more...] about Brutally Honest Beyond Organic Food Product Tasting Notes
