How to Make A Monster Write – Up
This past Sunday, I had the opportunity attend a workshop hosted by the IFAST team that featured Charlie Weingroff as the speaker. I was actually surprised at the number of attendee’s. There were probably over 50 people in attendance. It was great. Once again, most of the people in attendance were from out of state. I guess the trainers here in Indy are already good enough. They don’t need to get better (sarcasm). Anyways, here’s some ideas and notables I took from the talk:
- Joint Centration is the ideal balance of prime movers and stabilizers acting on a joint.
- Phasic muscles = prime movers ie the ones you see.
- Tonic muscles = stabilizers ie the ones you don’t see.
- A good screening tool will assess Neurodevelopment, Pain and Motor Control, Regional interdependence, and have a High Threshold Strategy.
- Train Slow doesn’t = be slow.

Basic Nutrition For Athletes
I’m going to preface this post by mentioning that I am NOT a registered dietitian. If you have health conditions, you should consult with your doctor before making any changes to your diet.
“What should I eat?” or “What should my kids eat?” are probably the two most frequent questions hear from my parents and athletes. So, I figured I would go ahead and write a little something to give you some guidelines to follow.
First, let’s get a bit of background info in what Calories, Proteins, Carbohydrates, and Fats are.
Protein
Protein is basically the building blocks of muscle and other tissue in the body. Good sources of protein are chicken breasts, fish, turkey, and lean beef. Try to eat the least processed meat possible. You should be able to tell where the meat come from on an animal. For example, I know where the breast is on a chicken. I have no idea where a hot dog or bologna came from.

A Definition of Hard Work and Commitment
There is a recent blog post on the strengthcoach blog about the disconnect between the trainer and client. Read the post here. I really liked the post and thought that I would share it with you.
The article talks about the difference between what is important to the client and what the trainer perceives to be important to them. While fitness may be the number one priority for the trainer, it may only be 3rd or 4th on the list for the client. To the client, fitness is typically just something they do a couple of times per week to fulfill a need to lose weight, reduce medications, or increase self-esteem. The quicker the trainer realizes this, the better.
