The Lifetime Athlete Training Tribe is going full bore. T2 is closing out the year in strong fashion. Actually, that’s agile fashion as we are finishing up month 1 of 2 in the Agility Block. 2022 looks amazing as we add a number of new programs and products. Exciting new programming in our Annual Training Plan which balances the 5…
Merry Christmas! In this Holiday week we’ve got some delightful workouts. They will fill your spirit with cheer, glee, and yuletide muscularity! If you are busy or on the road, check in with me on how to modify the sessions and we’ll make sure you get something done. Remember, as a Hard to Kill Training Tribe member and Lifetime Athlete,…
As we approach year-end 2021, I’m enjoying the opportunity to both glance back and peer forward regarding the Training Tribe. T2 has been one of my most successful and enjoyable endeavors in recent years. This online group coaching and training community grew from my desire to reach people with an easy-to-access, affordable, and effective conditioning system that is rooted in…
Here we go again…up, up, and away. Or toward something, which is called movement competency my friends. Your body is becoming agile. You own position. Your motion is elegant, artistic, and graceful. And you are going to absolutely love this week’s programming. Workout A is the Sammy in which you create a training sandwich. Bracket the “meat” of resistance with…
It’s SOOO exciting! We are starting another Block of training this week, and it’s our two-month focus on Agility! I love every block of training, and in this season I especially enjoy tuning up my multidirectional movement capacity. Let’s start out by defining agility. At TLA, we know that agility is the combination of mobility, stability, reactivity and fluidity. We’ll…
Congratulations on making it to the completion of the Endurance Block. This week wraps up our concentration on fatigue resistance before we progress into an agility-based focus. As we deload this week, the workouts take on a more playful and casual attitude. Try to fit what you can around holiday travel and celebrating. Looking ahead, and just to give you…
Oh yea, it’s KPI test week! Since we are wrapping up the endurance block with this month, and it’s the 3rd week, it’s time to check the status of your awesomeness! This week features 3 unique workouts, each with a slightly different theme. Your challenge is to do at least two of the sessions twice in the week. The goal…
Wow! The Workouts of the Week are dynamic and oh so delightful! We are working on athletic fatigue resistance with 3 different setups, and putting together a great stimulus for the key components of durability and versatility. The serving suggestions for your feast of fabulous fitness include an aerobic session, a resistance routine, and a mobility experience. The goal is…
Wow! This is exciting! We’re in the middle of our Endurance block of training and in my estimation, October is perhaps the best month for getting outside and going long. The fall colors, light, and air are spectacular in most parts of the country. In keeping with the tradition of our Annual Training Plan, we are balancing some distance-focused training…
Oh my! It’s that zesty time in each 1/12th of the year (month) when we get to test and challenge ourselves a bit. In this first month of the endurance block, I’ve got a cool set of sessions ready for you. Your cardiorespiratory and muscular fatigue resistance will be assessed and enhanced simultaneously. Here’s how it’s going to work. Each…
Welcome to the Endurance Block! This is going to be a great kickoff to Fall. We will be developing fatigue resistance in both cardiorespiratory efficiency and muscular force output. You’ll take the athletic versatility which you have built over the spring and summer and now add ALL DAY DURABILITY to your mojo! As many of you are already aware, I’m…
It’s August and summer is flying FAST! Just like you have been running. Many congratulations on your excellent input (participation and work) and output (friggin’ realtime results)! As we complete the Speed Block with month 2, we are going to be having some unique workout options. Because it’s summer vacation time for all of us, I want to make sure…
Howdy Great One! You are doing amazing things in your training and the results are shining through! As we cruise into week 2 of the Speed Block, we’ll be focusing on running mechanics in our training. In this case it’s not just what we do…it’s HOW we do it. The “it” is of course the magical art of running fast.…
Oh yes, you are phenomenal and so is this week’s training. We’re easing into our Speed Block of training, and readying our tissues to be elastic and lightning-fast. Speed is as much a mindset as it is a reality. Don’t worry about your times just yet. Simply think about what is fast for YOU, and steep yourself in the richness…
Wow! Hormesis-Bratosis was achieved recently. We ran up the mountain at 95 degrees, plunged the creek at a water temperature lower than half that of the air, and then enjoyed grilled bratwurst and fellowship with the setting sun. What an upregulation and I hope you are out getting the same mojo all over the country. Also, Happy Father’s Day to…
Hello and welcome to yet another fantastic week of T2 programming! I’m amazed at the results everyone is achieving but I’m equally impressed by all the fun and fellowship we are enjoying. Training (and playing and competing) outdoors in a group setting is amazing. It’s a total upregulation of health, fitness, and life satisfaction. In fact, here are a few…
The 2021 summer training program for The Lifetime Athlete Training Tribe starts May 1st! This is exciting stuff and frankly it’s my favorite part of the year. Even though the Tribe is online year-round and nationwide, our programming utilizes dedicated outdoor workouts several times per week from May through August. Local tribe members in the Gallatin Valley of Montana will…
Take your training outside! As in, get some of your peeps, joint the Training Tribe, and head into the great outdoors with your FittKitts! Outdoor group training, with a team, using scientific principles, is the ticket! In this episode, you’ll learn how to prepare for and design outdoor workouts that are incredible. The Lifetime Athlete Training Tribe is heading out…
Yo! Sup? You Rule! As you went through the fall block of training, you brought out your canine-like endurance and fatigue resistance. Through December and January, you restored your cat-like agility. Now, as we enter the Feb-Mar-April block, we build bruin-like strength. Dogs jog, cats jump, and bears lift the hell outta stuff. But before that happens, we have a…
Greetings Great One! You wanna know what makes you so fantastic? Well…many things, but the one I want to recognize today is your dedication to excellence. You strive for peak performance, don’t make excuses, get things done, and lead/show/help others. That’s just one of the characteristics of a Lifetime Athlete and a Training Tribe member. You are outstanding! This week’s…
