The pandemic is over- or is it? One of the most fascinating aspects of the whole covid situation is that there is no one Covid experience. There is only your experience that day which depends on geography, gender, relationship statue, income etc etc. In certain parts of the world, things are getting better and there might […]
Last Saturday my man Jay and i made a quick video why the barbell bench press simply isnt a great chest exercise since it simply does not engage many fibers.

Is NY back? This being Easter it only makes sense to talk about resurrection , I mean has anyone recently checked out NY basketball recently? Two play-off teams!! But aside from five guys in shorts throwing a ball into a basket, is the city back? I would say there are definitely green sprouts to be found. […]
This will be a rather short newsletter: We won best personal trainer NY! Again! I am so proud of my crew and what they have accomplished, against all odds.

What Friederich der Grosse can teach us in 2021 As you may have figured out, German history is a subject that is dear to me. So I jump at every opportunity to bring it into the newsletter or any random conversation as well. Friedrich’s birthday this past Sunday is as good of an excuse as any. So […]
