Strategy Wednesday – Workout Wednesday…
A "Strategy Wednesday" has been long overdue, so I've blocked out a few hours today for it. Basically it's a reassessment of what's going on, what I can do better, and often what I can drop or discontinue. And... this applies to my lifestyle as a whole, not just business or entrepreneur stuff... but also fitness and food. Much to the annoyance of some, I see all of this as … [Read more...] about Strategy Wednesday – Workout Wednesday…
Strategy, Bacon, Espresso… Catching Up with Rolando Garcia III, NYC Trip Part 4 PLUS Neuro-Grip Max Reps Video!
A trip to Manhattan isn't complete without a brainstorming, strategy-focused visit with Rolando Garcia III...

Podcast: A Chat With New Senior RKC Mike Krivka – Strategy and Beyond (and some silly stuff too)

Powers of the Get-Up, One HAND Pull Up Tips Via Video, American Ninja Warrior Application Turned In, and Upcoming Adventures
First off, I want to introduce Sebastian Müller, RKC Team Leader over in Germany. I was able to meet him at the 2013 PCC in Sweden (which was so epic that we are all still talking about it...). Anyway, Sebastian has some absolutely great ideas about training, and this most recent he has contributed to the RKC Blog is certainly no exception! While the kettlebell get-up is … [Read more...] about Powers of the Get-Up, One HAND Pull Up Tips Via Video, American Ninja Warrior Application Turned In, and Upcoming Adventures
Strategy Wednesday: A Visit to the Floatation Tanks…
[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…
Cold Remedies…. or Leveraging a Cold as an Excuse to Do Strange Things
Managed to catch a real heck of a cold, which doesn't happen often at all. This is one of those that makes me thankful to be working from home anyway this week. BUT, it's also a really good excuse to concoct things, and well I've always been a fan of that. Of course I've already used the cold as an excuse to visit The Salt Room again (click here for a past blog post about … [Read more...] about Cold Remedies…. or Leveraging a Cold as an Excuse to Do Strange Things
