Every once in a while I’ll voluntarily go and have my blood drawn for no other reason than to just check things out and give myself the piece of mind that everything is ok. While I go to great efforts to be as healthy as possible, all of the strict eating and exercise is no […]
The Holistic Hundred Challenge Results
Way back on August 16th, I started a 100 day journey that ends today (November 23rd). The Challenge had two parts. The first part consists of not eating any sugars or grains. The second part consists of doing 100 body-weight exercises each day. I’ve done 30 day challenges before, but I knew doing anything for […]
10 Rules of Health to Live By
Last night I had the privilege of sharing my “10 Rules of Health to Live By” with the Louisville Landsharks, our local multisport club. There was a wonderful turnout and the staff at HopCat did a great job of helping me get set up and keeping everyone’s glass full and the food moving! As I […]
No Sugar November – 2016 Edition
On November 1st, I will be through 77 days of my Holistic Hundred Challenge. The goal was to go 100 days with no sugar, no grains and doing 100 body-weight exercises each day. As I type this post, I’m still on track for my goal. I’m very proud of everyone that has joined me on […]
Best Protein Powder Review
I had a really good response to my post about pre-workout supplements, so I thought it was time to do another review of a review. I’ve been asked at least three times in the last few weeks about what type of protein powder I use. I don’t use it on a daily basis, but 2-3 […]
2016 Ironman World Championship Race Preview

I like to make prediction each year before the race. I’ve actually had some luck picking in the past, so […]
I’m a Lion…What Are You?
Do you describe yourself as a “morning person”? Maybe people say that you’re a “night owl”. Do you feel like you have more energy at 10PM or 10AM? Estimates vary, but up to half are either morning or evening people. However, most people are neither evening nor morning types but lie somewhere in between. According […]
Healthy Food Substitutions
As I write this post, I am 38 days into 100 days of eating no sugars and no grains. There are been some temptations along the way, but I’ve managed to stay on track so far…each day it gets easier. As I do this Holistic Hundred Challenge, I’ve come across some pretty good alternatives for […]
Pre-Workout Supplement Review
I review lots of products, but sometimes, it’s just not feasible for me to buy from several different manufacturers and try the products myself. So when I come across someone that has done the research for me, I’m always curious as to what the criteria was for the review. I can usually poke lots of […]
