Walmart and Whole Foods are battling it out for supremacy in the organic food business, Walmart having the advantage in name recognition, size and infrastructure and Whole Foods having the advantage of having a better name and being the world’s leading retailer of organic products. In corporate news, Walmart has […]
This week, we are going to focus on “breaking the fast”, which is the true meaning of the word breakfast. Most of us have gone 6 – 8 hours or more without eating, so our bodies need fuel to get us going. Thus, the importance of this first meal of […]
My life has revolved around sports and fitness for over 45 years. In many ways, that has put blinders on me in the ways that I experience the world. I am narrow minded in terms of what I eat and in terms of how I take care of my body, […]
“It’s so surreal,” said Earl Broughfman. “I feel like I may wake up in the recliner where I saw my first Power 90 ® infomercial.” But it’s no dream. Broughfman, along with Kimberly Barnett, are now $250,000 richer thanks to their steadfast dedication to lifestyle transformation. Last week at a […]

The older I get, the more that things bother me and the more opinionated I am about the things that bother me. Since Friday, when I found out that one of the biggest youth running clubs in Albuquerque had “downsized”, it has bothered me (and will continue to bother me). […]
Please don’t think that this is some cheap take off on the movie, the Passion of the Christ, one of the most powerful movies that I have ever seen. It is actually the only way that I could think of to describe to you why I have been so remiss […]
My productivity is at an all-time high and that means that I am able to branch out in a number of directions at the same time. One of the drawbacks, however, is that I have to keep track of all of the projects that I am working on and remember […]
My primary reason for my presence on the Internet has always been to provide information on fitness, health and nutrition and to provide access to the means to optimize your wellbeing. Over, time, my sites have grown faster than my ability to properly maintain them and now that I have […]
Imagine how you would feel if you taught an online class and you were on your way to the grocery late in the afternoon and you realized that you hadn’t posted the Class Lecture or the Class Articles that are always posted on Monday. Then imagine how you would feel […]
