What is a good workout?
People often ask me this question. It sounds like such a simple question, right? It is not. It is as if somebody asked you, "what's the perfect dinner?" Everybody will give you a different answer. If you asked me, I'd tell you a Big Mac with chicken McNuggets and bbq sauce, and most importantly with...
Slay your inner troll!
Trolls suck, and even though they are an Internet creation they are pretty much everywhere IRL too. Yes, they might be called douche bags, and they are not constrained by gender, race, or religion. The only thing that unifies them is that they are just a waste of time and energy. But my experience is that when it comes to fitness and nutrition, we all have an inner troll.

What matters is that staying true to your own self is hard. It takes work, and it does not come easy. Quite the opposite, what comes naturally is often not who you want to be. Recording all those videos is easy. Polishing and sharing them is hard.

I present some ideas I consider valuable when thinking what's the role that alcohol should play in your lifestyle.

I love coaching, I love training. I have spent several years of my life in higher education institutions earning various degrees. However it’s in the gym that I have learned the most. Watching people sweat, talking about food, feelings, and the biomechanics of the squat, is where I have seen the most epic battles, and where I have had the biggest impact. I love it. Nonetheless there is one aspect of training/coaching that I have not yet learned how to address very well and that bothers me constantly. This post is an attempt to start changing that.
