Last week we went over part 1 of fundamental programming must knows. This week we continue the programming conversation right where we left off. If you missed last week’s episode, stop now, and come back after listening to 92. Understand mechanical tension and muscle fiber types Do you even know what your programming is trying […]
Takayama Japan has a village, mountain town vibe to it. When you google “Takayama Japan” you see images of Shirakawago and Tsumago more than the ACTUAL town of Takayama. That’s because one comes to Takayama to see Tsumago, Shirakawago and other surrounding areas. We chose to split up Takayama and Tsumago. So we stayed in […]

While fitness definitely changed for my clients and myself during different stages of quarantine due to the pandemic, it […]
When most people heard we were traveling to Japan, they probably pictured Tokyo – A bustling city with bright lights and night life. While Tokyo has these things, it also has history, temples, and gardens…much like the rest of Japan. So, let me give you the need-to-know run down on Tokyo. Sanitation: It is hands […]
Two options for scaling your business… I wanted to do today’s short episode because I think it’s common for coaches in the online health and fitness space to create an offer, likely 1:1, have some success, and then be like, “Shit, what now?” Your roster is full, your time is spent, and you literally can’t […]
