Noodle Bowls and Me vs. Google

In the past few weeks, my wife and I have been streaming Korean television and films. It started with me walking through the living room one day and hearing a language that I didn’t recognize. When I asked my wife, “what are you watching?”, as she lay curled up, under the blankets, on the couch […]

Cold Weather Effects on Muscle

It has been EXTREMELY cold for the past two months. In the 10’s. Bone-ass cold. So cold that your muscles hurt, or more importantly, that MY muscles hurt. At times, I’m been asking myself why I’m even doing it. I know the benefits of working out in cold weather, but are they worth it if […]

Take a Walk, With a Weight Vest

Aerobic Exercise or Cardio. Most people don’t like it. They don’t like to do it and they don’t WANT to do it, so don’t even mention it. For some, bringing up Aerobic Exercise is enough to get them to give up on their lofty goals of getting into shape and starting a fitness program. Why […]

Working Out in the Extreme Cold

I have said this before, “I HATE THE COLD!” Okay, now that we’ve gotten THAT out of the way, I have seriously screwed up. Very recently, I have publicly made a commitment to working out this entire winter outside in the gym in my barn out behind my house. Basically, it all goes back to […]

Creating a Community

We all want community. We all yearn for it. We need it. Whether it’s on the track, on the playing field, or on the battle space that we call the work place. We all want to be a part of something. It’s why we spend hours on social media, why we message friends with crazy […]

Don’t Believe Everything You Read (Including This)

I just recently finished reading Science Fictions, by author Stuart J. Ritchie, Ph.D., a Scottish psychologist from the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience at King’s College London. In this wonderful book he clearly outlines and exposes some of the fraud, bias, negligence, and hype that has seeped its way into our scientific research, as […]

We Should All Get Humbled a Bit

I got humbled. I thought that I was in shape, but knew that I needed to push a little harder and add to my training regimen, so that I could lose some of the nagging extra weight that I was carrying. To do this, I upped my training regimen and added a lot of active […]

Why You Should Be Using Creatine

As a supplement, Creatine is one of the most popular and widely used ergogenic (intended to enhance physical performance, stamina, or recovery) nutritional aids on the market. But why? Do we actually know the reasons and benefits of taking it? To answer that question, let’s look at the reasons for why people don’t or won’t […]

The Numerous Benefits of Walking

Sometimes I hate to get up. I love my chair, and the wonders that are spoon-fed to me by my YouTube recommendations generally make me want to stay put. What’s weird though is that I also LOVE to be outside. Doesn’t matter the weather (even though I’m partial to a sunny day) I like being […]

Eat a Tuna Fish Sandwich!

I LOVE to eat fish. I live for it. Not just because of the healthy qualities that fish bring to the table, but because I LOVE everything about it. The taste, which if you’ve had a good piece of salmon, then you know exactly what I’m talking about. The different ways that you can prepare […]

I am taking the opportunity to tell all of you about a new direction that Sea & Land Fitness is taking and how we are expanding the reach of fitness education to include populations that have been overlooked by our industry. I have always been a advocate for Tactical Fitness, the fitness required to do […]

Overcoming the Winter Blues

As the winter months set in Seasonal Affective Disorder or SAD comes about for millions of us every year. It causes us to become more sluggish, more cranky, and to need a little bit more sleep. But, what if it wasn’t as bad as we are all making it out to be? What if it […]
