Looking to get Stronger




Upon looking at this book, i found this book to be a foundational book that each person can used for mental guidance and strength. If you feel you lack mental toughness or masculine energy which is every mans birth right. Then this book is starting point to a future you determine. I feel every man needs to know self defense in his own right. Forget gaining muscle to feel that power that you need to feel. Lifting weights is very important to a man's health, but it is essenital to learn martial arts. You must have that sense of confindents and security as you walk on this earth. The way events are unfolding lately, i think it is a good consideration to learn self-defense.

In the Fighting Method, I picked up one cool fact that was very informative to use while you are exercising. This is as stated in the book, "skipping rope (jump roping) is one of the best exercises for developing a sense of balance". Also "Ten minutes of skipping rope is equivalent to to 30 minutes of jogging". Therefore, I found that to be very cool to learn and started to jumprope as a result. So take a look at the book and see if it is for you. I'll have the link to amazon to read a free sample of the book below.

LUMOback (Posture)




I really do hate to see people with bad posture. It disappoints me in a lot of ways. People are not aware that there posture is off center. They will go about their day without awareness, of having good posture. Some individuals, have there shoulders slump over forward. Also, the lower half of the body is push forward near the hip region. The results of this, creates a 'S' like posture from head to toe.


 In Addition, people tend to hold their heads down when in public; as if they have something to be ashamed about. Bad posture can also come about through lack of confidences, or self-esteem; this will show through having your head down most times. Sometimes, a lack of a strong skeletal system can overtime create bad posture. This is why I always make it a necessity to straighten my back, push my shoulders back, adjust pelvis (hip), and push chin back, which will push my neck back to make a fluid line with my spine. Therefore, I would not push my neck back too much. If, I see people with the 'S' figure posture, it sends a signal to straighten my posture most times. Even individuals, that see you straighten your back will find themselves wanting to think and act on there posture. Having a strong core (abs) will do justice to a person. Lastly, it would benefit people to go invest in a chiropractor. Chiropractor will adjust your posture, this will enable more energy (chi) to flow smoothly throughout your body, mind, and soul. Take Care.

LUMOback, acts as a sensor when detecting the signs of bad posture. The sensor emits a vibration, to allow the straightening of your posture. It is a thin and flexible device, that wraps around your waist. There is a app, with electronic animated stick figure that will mirror your posture in real time. This App will track your every movement and sleep positions. It allows you to see for yourself, how your posture is from a third person perspective. The goal of Lumo is to create unconditional muscle memory, that will have everlasting effect of good posture.

I Repeat..you are not getting OLD!

“You must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water in a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you pour water in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can drip and it can crash. Become like water my friend.”

― Bruce Lee

   I was in Walmart today and i heard this woman say, " i'm 40, i'm getting old". I am saying to myself  "here we go again"(LOL). I am very sick of hearing people say that crap. The words ' I'm getting old ' is heard everywhere and I keep hearing those damn words, over and over again. Listen people, nobody getting old and first thing people need to do is stop saying it. Do not waste your time talking that trash that comes out peoples mouths (WTF). In reality, everybody ages, that is a fact. It is peoples frame of mind, perception, experiences and outlook of the world, that has people thinking that way.

Don't forget about Pilates, that is for men as well


In today's world, Pilates is associated with women. Pilates can be for men too. Pilates was originally created for men. Imagine everything between your shoulders to your end of your hips being "The Core". Shoulders to your hips would be the form a rectangle of sorts. This rectangle is the trunk of a tree. Once the core strengthen then branches of the tree strengthen as well. The branches are the arms, legs, and maybe the neck. So when the core is strong the whole become strong. This is the main Principle of Pilates.

Really Running

This video will further explain my earlier post about FiveFingers KSO from my blog. That post will explain why those KSO were invented just for the benefits of running barefoot. Just imagine if running shoes or shoes for that matter were not invented. Everybody health would increase. I know during certain situations that you do need shoes. Overall, I feel like there is so much hidden potential to our health; That we just have to look within ourselves and do research on our health . There more to running than meets the eye.
