Fitness Journey – Week 41

Wow, it’s been a while! Well, I’ve got a lot to catch you up on, but even more to reflect on. This is week 41 since I first started on this “Fitness Journey” (yeah, I counted). Now since it has been so long since I last wrote, I originally was thinking about “restarting” back to […]

Fitness Journey – Week 15

So today marks the start of my 15th week of my fitness journey. This is a pretty big mile mark for me just because it represents a consistency that I simply haven’t done so in the past. Most of my life I have had a really hard time sticking with something for an extended period […]

Fitness Journey – Week 13

Well let me start off by saying thank goodness for cheat days! My wife just had her 27th birthday yesterday and we went to Olive Garden to celebrate. I was swimming in a sea of bread stick and alfredo ecstasy. Shortly after I was plummeting down into a food and carb induced coma, but hell […]

Workout Wednesday #10

Well after a really terrible workout last Friday, I am back on track so far this week. I can’t stress enough how nice it is to have good workouts. A bad workout is just no good for anyone. Though I will admit that the two days in a row of juicing is kinda killing me. […]

Fitness Journey – Week 7

Well I have a lot more good news to report this week than last week. Last Monday was pretty rough. I got sick and and had a complete lack of sleep and just wasn’t feeling on top of my game at all. Today was a much different story and I am super grateful for that. […]

Chalk Talk #6 – Resloutions

The new year is fast approaching and we will soon be faced with our “New years resolution”. The fresh start of a year always seems like an opportunity to start something over or start a new habit. This opportunity is usually embraced by almost everybody going into the new year. The tough part that everyone […]

Chalk Talk #5 – Willpower

Today I wanted to talk about a pivotal moment that we come across in our daily lives. This moment comes down to a decision, to do or to not do something. Specifically in the moment when it comes to either working out, or not working out. Ordering something healthy, or something high in calories. Having […]

Chalk Talk #4 – It Could Always Be Worse

So the other day I was just hanging out at my house, playing with my daughter. We were both laying on the floor while she kicked and swatted at her toys hanging above her. While I was laying there watching her learn and play I couldn’t help but think of all the future she has […]
