A Tribute To The Greatest Entertainer Ever

Posted in Introduction on the July 1, 2009

“To this day that music is played in every corner of the world, and the reason is because he had it all - talent, grace, and professionalism. I’ve lost my little brother today and part of my soul has gone with him.”

- Quincy Jones

How To Get Your Groove Back With A Caribbean Workout

Posted in Introduction on the February 10, 2009

Well, let’s first be real honest here. If you are going to the Caribbean in these financial times and this time of the year isn’t a problem, then getting your groove on shouldn’t be an issue for you. As for the rest of us “Joe Plumbers”, we would really have to make that a trip of a life time. Exercise might not be the foremost thought in your mind with such beautiful surroundings, but it should. When I went on a cruise, I still managed to get lots of exercise along with eating almost every 2 hours. I actually lost weight on this trip. This video contains some common exercises, but the scenery is enough to make this watch worthy. Just imagine yourself of a sandy secluded beach enjoying a light workout with lots of sun and water around. While I daydream, enjoy the video…..

Does A Shameless Plug Bother You??

Posted in Introduction on the February 5, 2009

Yes, it’s that time people. It’s time for 35 seconds of shameless, unapologetic promotion. This is my first crack at internet advertisement. No, I’m not offering that vegi-cutter at 3 easy payments or that new fad exercise machine promising a washboard tight enough to scrub cloths on. It’s just little old me trying out some new techniques for promotion. I hope y’all don’t mind. Ignore it if you wanna, rate it high if you love it. Enjoy!!

“The Secret” On A Fitness Blog, Why?

Posted in Fitness Discussions, Introduction on the October 24, 2007

Because athletes use this, and they use this all of the time. Even though “The Secret” isn’t much of a secret any more, it is a tool widely used by business people, the military, medical personnel, various churches, and guess who else, athletes. “The Secret” is really a modern interpretation of the “Law of Attraction” which is the art of visualization. Visualization is the concept of “if you can think it, you can do it.” This is done by many successful athletes in many different sports. When ever you see boxers or fighters in the ring before a fight, they are warming up and visualizing what they need to do to win. They are actually fighting the fight in their mind, before the fight. Cool huh?! If world class athletes can benefit from this, I think the average person just striving for better fitness could too. Watch this snippet of the video and if I get a lot of feedback, I will post more.

I’m Back, I Don’t Suppose Anyone Want To Sing For Me?

Posted in Introduction on the October 21, 2007

I went on a little trip and really had the best of intentions in updating my blog while gone. I knew that the Street Workout main site would go dormant for 2-3 day, so I put up a notice saying this. I even checked with the lodge asking if there was an internet cafe in the area. But of course, once I arrived, there was no internet cafe anywhere in the immediate vicinity. So with all the forgiveness I can ask from my viewers and all the apologies I can offer, how about a song?
