Hey Everyone! So in almost all of my recent emails, I have mentioned coaching you from your home while you’re forced to take time away from the gym. I have received a lot of questions on this, so I want to try and give out some information on what I want to do to help...Read More
I can’t believe we are already halfway through humpday! This week is flying by, and I hope your week has been great so far! Nutrition is always a topic of discussion in the fitness world because everyone has an opinion on it. It doesn’t matter if you are an everyday member or a fitness expert....Read More
When this posts, I will be three sleeps away from running my first half-marathon at Baytown’s “Jail Break Run.” Signing up for it was, at first, a participation thing because so many of our gym members are doing it, and at first, I just wanted to complete it. But now I want to finish it...Read More

Deciding to be more healthy and better your life through exercise is an excellent thing at any time of the year. I searched...Read More
Over the last couple of years, I have spent less time working out and more time working on trying to build the gym. Unfortunately, the way I was eating did not change. I am not a good dieter, and I have always been an athlete, even as an adult, from playing soccer at a collegiate...Read More
A few weeks ago, I wrote a blog about “Doing Something Different” and told a little story about myself and my experience at a CrossFit gym and meeting some life long friends. I mentioned how I met a friend of mine at the gym, and a year later was one of his groomsmen, and I...Read More
You would be surprised by how often I miss workouts even with being in the gym pretty much all day. I coach the majority of classes and tend to find myself at my computer through most of my non-coaching hours. So there are plenty of days where I am left with only 30-45 minutes to...Read More
