I love what I do, and I take it seriously.

Fitness isn’t just narcissism, gym selfies, and aesthetics. For some people, it’s about very real, very important changes. Physical and emotional health and well-being could be at stake. This is important… crucial… and in some very extreme cases… even life or death. So naturally, while I do enjoy my job… I also take it very seriously.

I’m celebrating some serious success… and calling out some big honkin’ failures. In about the most objective, non-ranty way I can. So let’s talk about hard work, making a quick buck off the suffering of others, and 4 big things that are majorly wrong with all of these “amazing” health & fitness companies out there.
