Should You Wait To Start Your New Years Resolutions?

I'll just start right here by saying that I am a BIG resolution guy.

I actually wrote about them back in July as well. You can check that article out right here if you'd like.

I think that any time a landmark comes around and sparks some fire for change it instantly becomes a catalyst for change.

But here's what I've noticed in 12 years as Personal Trainer…

{Guest Post}- Life Lessons Powerlifting Has Taught Me

I've got my third, and probably final week of paternity leave covered by a gentleman that I used to Coach!

Total full-circle moment here. Love it.

Chaz Maclay is a native of northern Vermont. He's an Exercise Science major at Northern Vermont University (nerd alert) and a savage of a human being competitive powerlifter with multiple state, regional, universe, national records.

As his once-upon-a-time Coach, I take full credit.

Kidding, kidding.

But really, Chaz has worked incredibly hard to get to where he is now, has earned his success, and I am honored (and thankful) that he reached out with an awesome guest post for us all this week.

Thanks Chaz!

{Guest Post}- 5 (Fitness) Lessons from a Father of 4

I am super excited to have another awesome gust article from a Coach I've worked alongside for half a dozen years in my previous position.

Dustin wrote a nice intro for himself so I don't have to do too much jibber-jabber right here. I throughly enjoyed reading Coach's post and I am incredibly thankful he reached out to help for the paternity-leave cause. Coach, I look forward to repaying the favor!

Start Here...Let Me Tell You Why

The long time readers of this website may remember it as CoachCaseyLee.com. Originally planned as a living resume of my work, this website was designed to help land more speaking engagements.

And you know what, it worked! In the first year of CoachCaseyLee.com I had five public speaking events.

What a success, right?

Not so fast.

{Guest Post}- 12 Lessons In Strength

In lieu of an amazing addition to our family, I asked some friends to cover for me in the realm of newsletters and blogs for a few weeks. When I first posted about guest contributors, honestly I was shocked at how many people reached out to help. The fitness industry is amazingly giving and I definitely wrote some I.O.U's to the fine folks you are going to be reading over the next few weeks!

What the hell does that mean? Strength Training Edition

I found myself talking to a friend of mine not too long ago and we were making fun of the industry. Specifically, how so many Personal Trainers like to use the science jargon relating to exercise to their audience on social media, and presumably, their clients as well.

It makes me giggle when Personal Trainers start talking about force-velocity curves, synergistic muscle tendencies, citing the epimysium of the muscle belly, and so forth.
