Combat Endurance Training

Sometimes everything comes together at once. This past weekend was one of those times.

Often when many things come together at once there’s a mix of things you like to do and things you would rather stay away from.

My wife of 27 years has been putting up with me for quite some time. I always tell her how lucky she is but in reality I know it hasn’t always been all roses. You may find that hard to believe.

This past weekend was a special weekend because my daughter who is a senior in high school was also going to her senior prom. My how time flies. I remember chasing her around the yard making mud pies. Has she ever changed.

These first two things are examples of some of the really nice things that we wish we all could do for the rest of our lives. Spending time with our loved ones and sharing great moments.

But…

Sometimes life and responsibility gets in the way. This past weekend was also one of those times. It was high time for the Karate school to be painted and it was the weekend that would work the best with my schedule.

Hmmm…

Painting. Ranks right up there with a poke in the eye with a sharp stick. Oh well. Needed to get done.

My wife was great about it. She said do what you have to do. I’m thinking after 27 years she might just want me out of her hair for a weekend.

So I got to spend some time with my wife and took a few hours off to see my daughter in her beautiful prom dress and take some pictures and off it was to some more painting.

Thank goodness for some of the students and families at the Karate school who offered to pitch in. Otherwise I would still be pushing that brush for another week or so.

The painting turned out great. After 3 full days it was finally done.

I hope that I won’t have to lift another paint brush for at least another 10 years.

Having told you about my dislike for painting it’s more important to know that the job got done and it looks great

It was worth the effort and current and future families of our Karate program will appreciate having a beautiful facility to practice their art in.

Every day we have to make the same decisions about what we would rather do and what needs to get done.

It’s good to have a balance for the many things that have to happen in our lives. Taking care of the necessary things, whether we want to or not, is essential to a fulfilled life.

Are there any things that you know you should be taking care of but are putting off to the side? Sometimes it’s best to just get it done.

Seems that the more we create things the more things pop up for us to do. There always seems to be an opportunity to improve your station in life if you keep moving and looking for opportunities.

If you saw my video this past weekend you heard that things are really ramping up around here. We’re busy redoing our old website and creating new ones.

I’m very excited about our new www.WomenStrengthTraining.com website. I know that there are many women, especially those over 40, who are looking for ways to stay healthy and live their best lives. This will be fun.

The kids at the grade school are doing great and I started shooting video this morning. Our next step is to keep gathering video and written data for this program with the intention to send some of this already proven program evidence to our politicians so they can stop wondering what to do and just do what’s already working for kids and fitness.

Here’s my latest opportunity and I can use your help if you are available tomorrow morning at 8:30 am CST.

I’m going to be the featured speaker on the Bicycle Nut Radio Show. You can listen in at the following location www.blogtalkradio.com/the-bicycle-nut If you’d like to do more than listen you can also be on the show.

I’m going to be talking about core strength and proper breathing as my main topics. If you would like to call in and give some feedback on any of my Combat Endurance Training programs for other listeners to hear about I would really appreciate it.

As always, having you give proof to show that what I talk about works is better than if I say it. It would be great if you could do this live radio testimonial. Here’s the phone # for you to call if you are interested 1-347-324-3835

My friend Jerry Goodwin is the host of the program and from what I understand he and I will talk about certain topics to help bike riders improve their riding between 8:30 and 9:10. At that time we will open up the phone lines to answer questions and to have you call in with your Combat Success Stories.

I hope you can make it to the call. If you don’t want to make the whole call then try to get in on the last 20 minutes. Your help would be appreciated.

Talk soon
