June 14, 2010
Well, I finally did it–I’m very happy to announce to you that I have opened my very own private personal training and kettlebell studio right here in Honolulu, Hawaii. I decided many months ago that it was time to get out of the gym environment and into a private training facility. I

This video made me LOL! I hope it can do the same for you. When you spend a significant amount of time in a gym, you occasionally see some crazy stuff, people, and people doing crazy stuff. The funniest thing about the video below is: back when I worked as a personal trainer down on the beach in

I can’t believe I ate the WHOLE turkey!
November 27, 2008
What?! Some personal trainer in Hawaii ate a WHOLE turkey? I actually did not eat the whole turkey. “I can’t believe I ate the whole turkey!” was really a little homemade paper sign that me, my kid sister, and my cousins taped onto Grandpa’s back during a Thanksgiving get
The Why’s and How’s of Losing Body Fat
November 24, 2008
Why do you work out? It is a simple question but it is a very important one. Having a reason why gives you a purpose. When the reason (the why) you want to achieve something is big enough, you will be much better prepared to handle any part of the how. If the “what” is not easily
