I can’t believe he’s dead…

I can’t believe he’s dead.

Am I allowed to say dead? I don’t know the right thing to say. Passed, deceased, at rest, no longer with us. All I know is he is one of those. And that news hit me like a punch to the stomach. I’m still reeling from it at it’s been almost 12 hours.

Arlen (Dr.) Snyder

A dear friend and boot camp member is dead. Arlen Snyder (of our 5:30 pm class), husband of Debbie Snyder (of our 6:30 am class).

He died over the weekend.

I found out when I was just checking in on Debbie as I knew she was out of town. >

We went to a personal training conference last month in DC to make sure we stay at the top of our game and deliver the best workouts, results, and education.

29 Things I’ve Learned in my 10 Years as a Personal Trainer

This month marks 10 years that I have been training people. I have learned, unlearned, and relearned many things it that time.

I went from working at a club as a trainer and group exercise instructor, to managing the personal training department, to moving back home and starting my own training business.

Now as a husband and father I’ve grown even more.

Things I’ve Learned

1.) It’s not about the number – I used t

We can get that same effect without the time investment. In fact digestion burns calories all day in the background without us having to think about it. It turns out I’ve been burning calories like this for years but I didn’t even k...
