We’ve talked about, in response to a critic, really clarifying what this website is about, who I am, who we are, what we’re doing, and what this whole deal is about. I talked about strength and how it really does compare and how I would label myself, if necessary, to be a strongman amongst all [...]
Clarifying Spiritual Strength
This one may end up being a controversial topic for some of my friends or some of my Christian brothers because when you talk about spiritual strength, people mean different things. One of the things I want to be a help to you with along with every area of physical life is the life of [...]
Whoops, Bent Bar
I’m in New York and staying in the area for a couple of days to speak at all the elementary schools in one particular small district. I don’t get to do that very often. In fact, most of the time when I’m touring I’m in one place or the other one day and then I’m [...]
Mike Bruce and Martone and An Amazing Story
So I get this very excited phone call Sunday afternoon while I’m hanging out at the hotel, waiting to move to my next tour destination from my friend, Mike Bruce, an awesome call. He’s super excited and I find out some amazing stuff, literally crazy, amazing stuff that I had no idea we had this [...]
Ma’am and Crossing the Mason-Dixon Line
Most of you guys know that I’m an old school Southern guy. I joke around with people as I’m on the road. They ask, “Where are you from?” I say I’m from Florida and I’m actually one of three people who truly was born in Florida and still lives there, an actual honest-to-God authentic native, [...]
Push Hard Enough and Far Enough and You’re Going to Find Some Crazy Detractor
I’m coming off the road or getting toward the very end of my tour for the year. I’ve done 300 schools and have been in unbelievable overwhelmingly positive experiences, had amazing contacts with amazing people, met amazing people, and got to speak to over 100,000 kids live. What an opportunity and an amazing thing is that! But [...]
Clarifying Who You Are Part 2
I just talked about strength in my previous post but I’d like to change directions and talk a little bit more about endurance and clarifying the question. If you read the first blog post, you’ll understand that this is an answer not so much to the critic but to something people might be thinking about [...]
Clarifying Who You Are
A friend of mine recently pointed out a criticism someone had written about me on another website. The gist of that they said is that I switch emphasizes so often that you can’t get a true comparison of how effective the things I do are because I don’t do the things that other people do. [...]

An Awesome New Toy
In part of my travels I got through and spent quite a bit of time in the New York and New Jersey area and I got close enough to a place I’d wanted to visit because they had an amazing selection of tools that I need, New York Barbell. I got close enough that I [...]
Support System Part 2
Here are some of my people that I consider friends, that I deal with and talk to on a regular basis, and some of the things we talk about to build each other up. So I mentioned Dennis Rogers in the last blog post and Dennis is one of my close friends. We’ve been each other’s friend [...]
