blachta — Sun, 22 Aug 2010 11:53:57 +0000

Coming at you live from a hotel in Trakai, Lithuania. Today I did some bodyweight exercises, and towel/partner resistance exercises, then ran some sprints. I did the workout with my friend Simon from www.SovereignMan.com and 30 university kids from Poland, Lithuania, Belarus, and Russia. Then we went swimming in a big lake – man, those kids can swim. During the day I was teaching them about

Arrived in Krakow, Poland yesterday after a day of planes, trains, and automobiles. Krakow looks amazing. Going to hit a short workout at hotel (which is also awesome) and then explore the city. Nice little old-world european place. Last night did a workout at M Gym in Krakow. Pullups, db incline press, seated row, arms, shrugs. Good times. Today’s kick-butt mindset tip: Stop what you’re

Just finished an EPIC hike in the mountains where we were caught in a hail storm…my head got pounded by ice marbles for about 15 minutes. By the way, I’m putting my entire trip (Chicago, Tampa, Lithuania, Poland) in a new travel report coming soon. It will show you how to eat and train on the road. No excuses! Don’t let anyone stop you from doing what you want in life. Its your life, not

Last Workout in Poland

Today was one of those workouts…where conditions and energy levels weren’t the best, but I modified the session to get the most out of it. Workout was: warmup, pistols, planks, ball rollouts, ball hamstring curls. Travel day tomorrow and I’ll ease back into my real workouts on Thursday in Toronto. After the workout I had lunch at Vega in Krakow. Big meal. Stuffed pepper with lentils and

Back on Track in Toronto

Okay, back on track here in Toronto. Got home yesterday afternoon around 5. Feeling good and enjoying the regular routine, but also really enjoyed my time in Europe. I kind of like that time zone…behind Asia, but ahead of EST, and almost flip-flopped from my west coast friends. Anyways, the dog was super happy to see me, but he has an ear infection again. So we’ll hit the vet tomorrow. My

1 diet mistake

blachta — Sun, 22 Aug 2010 11:53:57 +0000

Oh dear, I made a diet boo-boo recently. Twice. Actually, I blame it on my friend who buys my groceries (I admit it, I’m too lazy to do my grocery shopping.) Usually she’s perfect and gets me exactly what I need…but recently she’s made a mistake with my peanut butter. I knew something was "up" when I tasted the peanut butter…because it was the BEST peanut butter I had ever had…and all
