I’ve written about this many times on this site, and most recently, in reference to several of our clients who are hitting the biggest numbers when it comes to lifts. We have a Top 5 board where we can rank the best of the best amongst our clientele. We’ve had it for around 6-7 years […]
Last week, the U.S. administration under the guidance of RFK Jr., released their updated version of the food pyramid. It should come as no surprise that nearly everyone in my side of the world had something to say about it. There were a handful of areas that did catch my attention, and, as I made […]
I live in a world that thrives on data. I’ve been a coach since the tail end of 2007 (18 years now) and my whole world is data: -How many reps? -How many sets? -How many pounds? -How many calories? -How many grams? -How many hours of sleep? -How many steps? -How do we quantify […]
My therapist passed away the day after Christmas. There is the logical, rational part of me that knows he lived much longer than his initial prognosis led any of us to believe. And, of course, the emotional side wanted him here longer…but that’s terribly selfish of me. Most people don’t go looking for a therapist […]

I’ll talk more about the latter in just a few. As for this site, here are the 5 most popular articles of 2025: 1-The Diagnosis 2-For Kelly 3-The […]
I realize that some time has passed since I’ve updated the site about staff and services here at the Rev. I know that there are many options when it comes to how you train your body, and we’ve been very fortunate to be the preferred option for so many since we opened in 2009. If […]
At some point, you’ve probably heard of or have experimented with an elimination diet. Sometimes, people attempt them to try and figure out if they have an intolerance to a particular food, to improve certain physical symptoms they may be having or simply for fat loss purposes. I’ve written a fair amount on this site […]
I’m writing this just after Thanksgiving and depending on how you celebrate the holiday season, there are potentially two food-focused holidays behind us (Halloween and Thanksgiving, respectively.) Which means, Christmas, and to a lesser degree, New Year’s Eve, will be the last two holidays for many people to celebrate as we lean into 2026. I’m […]
I’m turning 50 this week. So, here’s a rambling list of 50 things you can do to be better. Better at, almost anything. It’s a collection of thoughts, some original, some paraphrased from others, some credited where I remember the appropriate source. It’s a collection that has come from a history of successes and failures […]
I have to remind myself constantly that I provide a service that is a luxury. Not many people can afford to have a personal trainer. Not many people can afford to have a nutrition coach.
