16 DAYS TO XXX LONDON OLYMPICS

Markus Rogan is a legend. The Olympic committee honored him with the title, "legend of Sport" not me.

A man whose determination is only surpassed by the size of his heart.
He is headed to London already a 2 time Olympic medalist. What you might not know, is that he auctioned off his World Championship Gold, for cash to build a school in Africa(www.tesfaye.at). His Philanthropy work and dedication to his kids, using his talents to help others, makes him a champion before landing in London.
It is an honor to train such a dedicated athlete , but beyond that, inspiring how he uses his talents for others good! I learn daily more from my athletes than I could deliver to them!

17 DAYS TO LONDON XXX 2012 OLYMPICS

The Secret of Olympic Champions 17 Days to London

This is such an exciting time, that we are blessed to be a part of every 4 years:  THE SUMMER OLYMPICS are upon us.  Olympians train tirelessly to achieve the allusive GOLD!  One of my favorite quotes is "no one has ever drown in a puddle of sweat!"  Tireless perseverance and unswerving goal oriented focus is the Stuff Gold medals are made of!
Ask my guys:  Austrian Olympic Legend of sport and 2 Time Silver Medalist,
Markus Rogan(@mahrqoos),

Omar Pinzon(@OmarPinzon), 

and Micheal Alexandrov(@alexandrov59).

What million dollar secret do these elite athletes have access to that the average one of us, doesn't?  Nothing!  Technology has given us access to some of the greatest swim and strength coaches, with the click of a button.  

 I have had the honor of studying under some of the greatest coaches(Dr. Harry Sneider-1984 Olympics, Greg Robinson--NY Jets 1991 to name just two) and training some of the greatest athletes in the world.   I can tell you that there are genetic mutants (gifted in mind, genetics, mental attitude and speed of recovery...to name a few champion traits).  But, some of the most inspiring athletic acomplishments have come from those of us who are average, applying above average technique and good form to all forms of sport and training.  

One million dollar secret I am sharing with you here that makes Olympic swimmer faster, sprinters quicker, jumpers leap higher, is "TURN YOUR LIGHTS ON" 

and connect your LATS TO YOUR ASS (gluteus)."

Look at the amazing development at the belt line as the LATS connect to the Ass(gluteus)!

These two coaching phrases are from a tool we train on in our arsenal called the AB-Inforcer(R) Core Biofeedback Trainer.  Its intensity that it brings to a workout with a focus on form is unsurpassed.  

Mike Alexandrov, in on the AB-Inforcer "Keeping his lights on" (I am holding the Hand piece) as Markus Rogan drops a #16 pound medicine ball to his chest as he explosively does a breast stroke move while throwing the ball as high as possible!

Uncompromising form and intensity combine in a perfect training storm to create bigger, faster, stronger, more explosive body--Genetic mutant to motor challenged athlete-- results are enevitable!

Omar Pinzon stated:  "When I go to London to win the Gold, I am packing my tooth brush and my AB-Inforcer"

Many of you have asked to help me get to London.  All proceeds will go to getting me there to help prep the guys for their events and get home.  Every little bit adds up and I am so grateful to all of you for helping make my Olympic dreams come true!  Every little bit counts and I promise to keep you all updated here!  XXX Lee

World's Oldest Man Turns 115: Shares 2 Longevity Secrets

Over the past 30 years in the fitness industry, I have had everyone I work with eventually ask me to share my nutritional and longevity secrets.  There are people who pay a lot of money for the secrets to longevity (more than a few of them reside in Hollywood, no doubt); it is merely a dream for most of us to live past seventy and still have our wits about us.

 Jiroemon Kimura (featured on Reuters video here), a farmer from Kyoto, says the secret is simple: eat small portions. Perhaps there’s something to that, since Kimura just turned 115 years old yesterday.

Kimura credits his eating habits as a contributing factor to reaching such a milestone birthday, and scientists do believe that certain foods–and the way we eat them–can help us prolong life by keeping us disease-free and restoring our anti-oxidant level. According to Diseaseproof.com, the seven best foods for ensuring a long life are black raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, flax Seeds, green leafy vegetables, tomatoes, and broccoli sprouts. The list of foods to stay away from includes butter, french fries, doughnuts, and sausage.

Kimura is not only the oldest living person in the world, he’s also been verified as the third-oldest in history. When he received the news, he said he was “delighted beyond words“.

He also added, when asked about the reason for his extraordinarily long life, “I don’t know exactly…maybe it’s all thanks to the sun above me. I am always looking up towards the sky, that is how I am.”
