How I Plan on Doing This



So you say you want to change your lifestyle but how are you going to do that…?
 
That’s the question that I kept asking myself a couple of weeks ago. I can’t always rely on Dudley and Bob, or Workshop Fitness to bail me out. I needed to figure out a plan that would utilize what I know while also allowing me to continue to learn about fitness with people who understand fitness and health better than myself. That’s when my longtime friend, David Becker, contacted me. He asked me to come check out his gym for an open session that he has every Saturday morning.
I had only worked out with David once before about two years ago, and he completely wiped the floor with me. He had me doing a fully body workout with jogging as my active rest within about a 45 minute workout. That was when I was in great shape. Now I am in the worst shape I have been in for about 4 years so I was apprehensive about the workout. Thankfully David put me through a workout I could handle but at the same time made me sweat my butt off.  It involved a low impact warm up, kickboxing, and doing sprints on his air-dyne bikes. After the workout I had a stroke of genius.

I need to get my butt kicked by David.  I need this to help me out because without a trainer I had lost all the success I had gained. There also needs to be accountability. What better way to create accountability than to workout at his gym and get a group of people to join me who are looking to get back into workouts. The truth is that I have been getting a lot of feedback about training again. The problem with training right now is that I am not fit to tell someone else to perform to his or her best. It wouldn’t feel right. So I want to see if people would be interested in starting a workout with David that would be specific to people I used to train, friends who are interested in working out with me, or anyone who is looking to be part of a workout community.

I want to make sure its known that I am in no way making any money from this, getting a discount on any kind of fees associated with the gym, etc. I am just looking for accountability and to create a workout family I desperately miss. I am currently looking at holding these workouts Tuesday-Thursday 8:00PM.  If you are interested in finding out more information regarding this let me know.

Just some additional workout information regarding David’s gym. He will be instructing us using Caveman Training. It sounds a lot more intimidating than it actually is. The program is progressive and will start at a beginner level. And not to be intimidated by the name, it simply means going back to the basics. Basic movements structured properly to produce results.
