What can you say about Chris McCombs that hasn’t been said by him already?!?!  When it comes to smash-mouth talk, fitness business tactics, and the aggresive, entrepreneurial mind-set in the world of fitness, Chris is the poster boy!

Hey, have you heard the saying “books aren’t meant to be read, they’re meant to be re-read”? Well anyway, I dusted off my old copy of Rich Dad Poor Dad’s CASH FLOW QUADRANT by Robert Kiyosaki … It’s a monumentally valuable book by the way – ignore the fact that it’s more commercial than Britney Spears.

There’s something about money that gets people talking! That’s what happened with my first post on $100 training sessions last week.

“Yes, you too can be the next ten million dollar fitness entrepreneur!” In part, Super-Trainer started as an answer to the shameless marketing that’s taken over the fitness industry over the past few years. It was a call to get back to basics – get good at training first and take advantage of what this [...]

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?
