This quote begins our summer physical challenges! We will try a few new things. Some are easy to do but easier not to do. Some will be real physical challenges. Some will be nutritional experiments. Give them a try if you like. Keep them in your routine if you like them, discard if you don’t. Here’s the challenge for this week: Take 5 days this week to spend 15 minutes of meditation or 3 rounds of Wim Hof breathing, 5 days in a row. Meditation can be different for everyone. For me it will be the Wim Hof Method. Check out http://tomrowlandpodcast.com/blog/summer-challenge for videos on the Wim Hof Method plus other options for meditation.

Read MoreI have been collecting fitness equipment for 20+ years. In that time I have built a World Class Strength and Conditioning facility in my garage.

In this episode, I go over some key pieces of equipment that are, in my opinion, the best bang for the buck to offer unlimited flexibility for workouts. We set the budget at $500 and actually came out about $50 under.

Read MoreOne of the most common excuses that I hear for not working out is that people want to get in better shape before they join a group, gym, trainer, etc. Any good gym is going to have classes and opportunities that cater to any level of fitness. A good trainer will be able to accommodate workouts to you in line with your fitness level. Many people that make this excuse never even start that first step to getting in better shape, so don’t be afraid to join a group or gym and start your journey to good fitness regardless of your fitness level.
