Your Team for Success...

Gladys Knight had the Pips, Diana Ross had the Supremes, Larry Bird had Kevin McHale and Robert Parrish. You?? You have Ryan and I at Force Fitness and Performance. What exactly am I talking about? I am talking about surrounding yourself with people that can help you to succeed.

Ryan and I were talking about just that point earlier in the week. We were discussing the relationships we want to develop and nurture so that we can be successful. We want to surround ourselves with the people so that we can be the best coaches and fitness professionals to all of our clients.

So this week Ryan and I made some phone calls, and we visited some respected professionals in the area, and we had some meetings, all so that we can have at your disposal the network to help you get to your goals. We went out this past week and spoke with people that can get you to your goals, people that can help us get to our goals. This coming week? Well it will be more of the same, we will be speaking with more people that will help you to get the best experience and achieve the best results . all courtesy of Force Fitness and Performance.

My question to you is: are you surrounding yourself with a team of individuals that help you be successful?

I am freaking out!! AHHHHHHHHH!

Okay, so maybe I am not freaking out just yet. Give me a week or two and I might be.

We went over to unload another shipment of equipment today (it was about 12 bars to be exact, and they are AWESOME!) and it seemed that the job site was a little behind schedule.

Anyone that truly knows me probably can guess my reaction. I was very patient and understanding of all the things that can go wrong and was simply happy to be in the building. YEAH RIGHT! I was pacing around the place like a 5 year old wanting to play with my new toys (ie gym equipment). I am the most impatient person in the world! I hate waiting.

Things I like: Our new equipment, girls, fast fat loss plans, and sports
Things I hate: Waiting...

So I want to take a minute to thank you all for waiting on us to get our facility in order, for being patient with all my rants about getting set up, and for being patient with the all the unknowns that are coming with this transition.

Thank you so much for being a part of Force Fitness and being an important part in our lives. Everyone last one of my clients has a special place in my heart and you are a big part of my life. When someone asks if I am married I simply reply that I have about 30 spouses that all require a lot of my attention. And I love every minute of it.

I would not trade doing what I love with you for anything in the world.

Thank you again. Without you none of this would be possible.

Be Force Fit,
Ryan

A Coach or a Trainer?

I had a really cool experience today that got me really thinking about something that Ryan and I have talked about all along.

One of my athletes, a kid with tremendous talent, has been hounding me about when we will be opening Force Fitness and Performance. He knows that with the right training and a focused and concerted effort by himself and the Force team he could be great at what he does. He also knows that there are probably 22 hours in a day when he will not be training and to him he knows these are the hours that really "shape" a person.

He asked me if he could stick around after the workouts to see others train, to watch Ryan and I pursue with the greatest of passion our dream. He thinks that it will keep him out of trouble.

Now that is the number 1 reason I love being a coach. You can bet that I love seeing kids succeed in their selected endeavors, whatever they maybe, but honestly I just want kids to succeed. I want them to be well rounded people and fitness is one aspect of that. All along Ryan and I have spoken about this, about the value of being a "coach" and not a "trainer". A trainer counts reps, and counts dollars. A coach teaches, not just about the 2 hours you may spend with us every other day, but about how to make the right choices in the other 22 hours each day. In some cases those lessons may be about what to eat and how much rest to get, in other cases those lessons are more important.

Have a great day!
