I got on the phone recently with a guy that’s the living example of everything we talk about here on Super-Trainer – crazy man Zach Even-esh. By crazy, I mean only the workouts that you’ll find going on at his gym and see online in his videos.  When it comes to business, Zach’s crazy like [...]

I know it’s been over a week and I’m a little late with this post – to make up for it this one’s VERY LONG and SUPER-GOOD … FITNESS ENTREPRENEUR – that’s a term that gets thrown around A LOT, and is used to describe every Personal Trainer, anyone that’s ever written an e-book, or tried [...]

What do porn and Top-Level Training have in common? They’re both hard to define, but you know it when you see it! And I certainly found it (Top-Level Training, not porn) in the training practice of Southern California’s Kettlebell Queen, Lauren Brooks Miller. Like I always talk about on the blog, I didn’t invent this thing; [...]

ABANDON EVERY HOPE, ALL WHO ENTER HERE …. There isn’t a more dreaded term in Personal Training than BURN-OUT. Think of it as a kind of purgatory where life starts to lose pleasure and meaning, without an end in site. It might sound like I’m exaggerating, but this is a place that a lot of [...]

It’s a little weird talking about life after training. That’s cuz I’m still very much in the midst of it, making great money at it and loving every minute. But for me and I’ve got to say for everyone else, Personal Training is part of a growth process. You could say [...]

Haha – that title will getcha reading, won’t it? It’s undeniable that there’s a certain panache to the term Celebrity Trainer … but what does it mean exactly? People tend to think that it means you train celebrities, but not in my opinion. What it means is that you the trainer are the celebrity. For [...]

I was real happy from what I got out of my recent conversation with Jessica Storm - some bona fide, real-world, implementable training info.

It looks to me like everyone getting started in the fitness industry today, especially young guys, wants to get in the field of Strength and Conditioning. It must be the high-powered world of competitive athletics that makes it so appealing. Well if that’s the case the leader and role-model in this area is definitely Eric Cressey. Eric’s the [...]

When you’re a Personal Trainer, venturing outside of the comfort zone of a home base is a little scary. That’s probably one of the reasons why more trainers don’t make the jump into starting their own practices – because they don’t have a solid place to train their clients out of. I got to [...]

When most kids grow up they dream of being doctors, lawyers, or even astronauts. If they only knew what being a Top-Level Trainer was like, they might change their minds! The truth is Personal Training doesn’t always get the respect it deserves as a real profession. While the public and media generally paint a [...]

Just when you thought having a website was enough, things online have changed. Creating a static web-page where people come to get information isn’t enough anymore; you need to tell a story that people can connect with. But since you’re a living, growing human being, this story is constantly changing, and if you want to [...]

It took almost three weeks of back and forth, speaking through assistants and balancing time-zones. I didn’t have any friends in common with the man, so it was a shot in the dark, but one day while sitting in a Starbucks, I got what I was looking for: my phone rang and the person [...]

Staying on top of your game in this business is very important. While doing some continuing ed recently, I found out one glaring weakness in my training arsenal – kettlebells.
