Brief Bio: Christopher Sommer is former US national team gymnastics coach. During his extensive 40-year coaching career tens of thousands have benefited from the knowledge of Coach Sommer.

Gisele and I were faced with category 4 Hurricane Matthew early this week. Thanks fully, it passed by Miami Beach with little damage or destruction.

Many of us tend to make excuses as to why we can’t get fit or be consistently active. The typical excuses include: “I don’t have the time,” or “my gym is too far away,” or “exercise is boring.” If you have uttered the excuses above (or others), it might be time to consider shifting your mindset towards fitness. We know that with some planning it’s possible to incorporate fitness into a busy life. It may be a challenge at first, but once you develop a mindset for fitness, you might be surprised at how quickly physical activity becomes a habit. It is important to note that you don’t need a gym to get started! It’s important just to get moving and incorporate regular physical activity into your life. You may be wondering “why should I change my mindset towards active living?” Regular physical activity helps improve your overall health and fitness and reduces your risk for many chronic diseases. Remember, exercise helps you reach your personal best. You look good, feel good and perform at your peak on and off the

No lasting results. Nada.The truth is we all had moments that seems that all our efforts weren't paying off. Including myself. And I keep receiving emails and messages from listeners saying how frustrated they are because they're putting a lot of effort into work, relationships, health & fitness, and nothing seems to be paying off. As a result, they lost their drive. They desperately want to feel motivated and fulfilled and like their life has meaning. But the truth is they're massively disappointed in their lack of results.

Focus on the time and tension components of your exercise technique for huge size and strength gains. “Your Muscles Don’t Count But They Can Tell Time.” This is something I say to my clients a lot to help them understand that while counting reps is important, it’s how much time to take to do each rep that counts. Don’t believe me? Excellent. I want you to do the same thing that I have all my clients do when they don’t immediately buy into this idea. I want you to do two sets of 10 reps of push ups. On first set, I want you to perform those 10 reps taking 2 seconds to lower and 2 seconds to push back up. On the second set, I want you to take 5 seconds to lower and 5 seconds to push back up. Which one was harder? The second set was, right? But why? Well, the fist set you took 40 seconds to complete those 10 reps. On your second set, you took 100 seconds to complete 10 reps. That’s over twice the amount of time of time that it took to complete the first set. Again, muscles tell time a lot better than they can co

In today's episode, our guest Ryan Magdziarz will share his personal story of success at a young age. Also how you have to take smart risks if you ever want to live a legendary life. Plus, how to take the first step and create a successful business and career that will lead to happiness in other areas of your life. Listen Now! Get the full show on:    Thanks for Listening!
