F.ree Weightloss Coaching in Minneapolis/St. Paul

** Deadline extended! Apply by Thursday, March 31st.

Boy, do I have a deal for (some) of you!
 
I put this out on my Twitter and Facebook accounts for all of my lovely followers and friends to jump on first, but their unwillingness to take action is your benefit.
 
I am attempting to put together a (probably) f.ree product for everyone in this entire world to use. In doing so, I need to collect data and generate content.
 
This is where you come in…

Psychological State Management Part 2: New methods but at what cost?

**Update - post writing: The first sentence below is a lie. I went into a lot of detail. **

I feel like I have a lot to say, but don’t have the energy to go into a lot of detail. Or maybe it’s because I have to pee. Either way, let’s take a trip up into my dome-piece and see what falls out. Wut?

100th Post: A Hodge Podge of Evryfing!

Ho-kay! Super duper, team! Way to go! Can you believe it’s been 100 posts already?! Actually, I’m sure the big time bloggers average close to 100 posts every 2 months. Me? Close to 2 years. Muahahahaha!

In true fashion of this website, I’m going to touch on something from each of the categories I post about. Let’s sit back, put your hand down your pants (if you’d like), and bask in my self-perceived gloriousness. Read More→

New Blogging Format

So, in an attempt to continue resolving my psychological state issues, I’m going to try a new [to me] blogging format. For the most part, I’m just going to try blogging more frequently. This method is not novel in any way. It’s how a lot of people do it. They’ll mix in some shorter, “fun” posts along with the good, juicy content. I’ve focused, for the most part, on the good, juicy stuff, and just mixed my humor in along the way. Well, I’m going to follow the crowd and test it out.

I’ve stated several times that I can only write while in eustress, but that I’m rarely in eustress long enough to finish some of my longer posts. Ding, ding, ding, ding!!!

“How ’bout you try this, asshole: write shorter posts that you can finish while you’re still in eustress.” – Whoa! Alright!

It’s hard to describe what I have in mind, but the shorter posts will be less educational and more informational in nature. Does that even make sense? I don’t know. Basically, I’m going to use it as a Twitter account that allows more than 140 characters at a time. If I read something and it deserves a reaction, I’ll post about it. If a worthy thought pops in my head, I’ll write a few paragraphs and publish it. For the most part, they’re going to be my ‘on the spot, first reaction’ to whatever I’m thinking. They won’t have a lot of background information or research done beforehand, other than what I already know of the subject. I’ve already had several things I’ve wanted to write about in this way, but my employer felt that I needed to do some work instead. Hmph.

And you don’t have to worry, if you’re subscribed to my website, which you should be, I won’t blast you with an email every time I post something new. Because honestly, I may post once a day, twice a day, or just as infrequently as now. I really don’t know. So with that in mind, I’m thinking I’ll send one email a week with links to all of the articles published that week.

I still plan on having longer, educational posts that you have all grown to love as well, right? RIGHT?!?!

The way I see it, it’s a win-win. I write more when I’m happy. I’m happy because I write. You get more lol’s and informations. A puppy is born. And world hunger is solved.

“By working within your existing limits, you can expand them faster.”

Now, where have I heard that before??????

Psychological State Management: Scratching the Surface

I’ve been working a lot with one, Miss Megan K, and just recently, the dangerously smart, Frankie Faires on state management.

“What in the eff is ‘state management’? Is that, like, politics??

Putting It All Together: Psychology of Training

Reader beware: If you have, or are a relative to, a special needs/mentally disabled child/family member or in general are offended by the word “retard” please stop reading now. I understand it’s a sensitive word, and I would never wish any of those conditions on anyone’s loved ones. That being said, I’m not going to not use it. When have I EVER been politically correct?? You’ve been warned…

I typed this up for Chris Smith over at Train Better Fitness who is also studying for his CSCS exam, but I thought I had better wait to post this until I knew for sure if I passed since I wrote this 4 days ago. But since I’m posting this, it should give you a little hint….

I PASSED!!!

CSCS Exam, Training, and More

Seems like the only stuff I’ve been posting lately are updates. Like, as if people actually care what’s going on in my life. Hahaha. Right. I’m not that interesting. Hopefully the days of only posting life updates regularly are behind us. However, there’s still this one…

Lots of Updates and a Wicked Sweet Free Offer

Website Updates
 
These have been few and far between since the Biofeedback DVD release party. I’ve got 3 or 4 posts that I REALLY want to write, but haven’t been able to bring myself to do it. There’s a multi-part series on running (which will feature a guest writer), a huge revamp to nutrition “theory”, and how I maintain a balanced lifestyle. There are 2 posts that I didn’t notify via email though. Be sure to go back and check them out. And there’s also this….
