Being Fit Rocks! Big Holiday Specials

Being Fit Rocks!        I’ve had the privilege of coaching hundreds of athletes over the past 30 years and am continually inspired by how their choice to be fit positively affects their lives.

Observing this, while consistently practicing my own diverse fitness program, has motivated me to publish more tools for athletes and aspiring athletes at all levels; whether that means offering coaching programs, how-to-books, or by sharing inspiring stories to motivate and encourage.

So have at it! A perfect […]

A FREE Triathlon Revolution and a Reluctant then Inspired Author

When a publisher approaches you about writing a book for them, its kinda silly to turn them down even if it wasn’t the book you were interested in writing at the time. Which was the case when I was approached about writing Triathlon Revolution: Training, Technique and Inspiration. The sport of triathlon had not been lacking in some great literature highlighting its amazingness from all angles for quite some time. So why did I take on this project? I took up the then-new sport in the early 80’s while getting my degree in exercise physiology; a few years later I started racing professionally. I’m pretty sure that I then became one of the original triathlon coaches. While coaching and racing, I was also […]
