Why not have more “choices” unless I felt as if I wasn’t “capable” of “choosing properly?” “The” Trainer/Inside Out Fitness 06/28/2024
I used to do this a lot! Blaming others when things didn’t go right for me! What happened? Nothing good! Now I look for ways to take some responsibility regardless if it’s my fault or not! Why? Because if I do then I’m able to work towards fixing the situation so it is only “minimal” NEXT TIME! If I just blame others then there is very little I think “I” should work on! “The” Trainer/Inside Out Fitness #responsibility #responsable #responsibilities #responsibilitiesfirst #takeresponsibility #selfresponsibility #responsibilitiescomefirst 06/22/2024
Health and fitness, not so complicated! Just think about moving and then actually “move!” – “The” Trainer/Inside Out Fitness 06/04/2024
“Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.” 06/04/2024
There are many reasons to train outside like fresh air and that there are no gym fees. But what I’m talking about today is that you become free from a large assortment of “rules” by a gym! You know like not being able to train the way you like or not being able to wear the shoes that you came to the gym in! Other things like extra fees at different times! It adds up and let me tell you that is feels so good to become “unhampered” from all of those things! “The” Trainer/Inside Out Fitness 05/30/2024
I train myself 100% of the time outside! Since I have switched from the gym to outdoors, I personally feel so much better! I also have found out that because so much of my training now involves “body weight training” that I have had to learn more about my body and less about machines! It feels great to have to think so much more about my body! “The” Trainer/Inside Out Fitness 05/25/2024
The main thing that a person doing “outside training” needs to master is body weight training! Let’s say that you are running a trail and decide to stop and do resistance exercise on a big rock (I do this all the time). What you need to be able to do is to “use your body as the resistance!” Why? Because the rock doesn’t move like dumbbells! What has to move is “your body” so you need to understand how to move your body in ways that you will provide that resistance to any part of your body that you choose! #outside #outsidetraining #hoodriver #columbiarivergorge 05/24/2024
Why outside training instead of the gym? 1 – it’s free! 2 – very few rules outside but many inside the gym! 3 – fresh air & sunshine! 4 – the outside is always “open!” 5 – no machines to injure you! 05/23/2024

A lesson I’ve learned rather late in my life… Achieve the things that truly mean a lot to yourself! You can never make everyone around you happy … don’t even try … if you can create happiness for yourself then that is the biggest win! Do that and enjoy! #happiness #happy #happytime #joy #joyful #smile #hoodriverdowntown #hoodriver #columbiagorge 05/21/2024
10 years ago … I ran 5000 miles to celebrate my 50th birthday! I’m currently running 6000 miles to celebrate my 60th! When I turn 70 I’ll run 7000 miles!

I could spend my time pointing out the “misguided ways” of others and why I don’t like them for it(hate)! However, how does that make me, or anyone else, happier? It doesn’t, so I go about… 05/11/2024

So many times we see messages that suggest that we must choose “what the “writer” considers an overall positive choice over a so-called negative one,” but why can’t we do both? I mean for most kids, they would never give up the phone to do something they “dislike” but if our messages could include a way to slowly limit what we consider the “negative choice” and slowly introduce what we consider “positive” then I believe we’d have a better chance at doing it?! – “The” Trainer/Inside Out Fitness 05/06/2024

Get to know the “joints” of your body! Make sure they are moving with all of your R.O.M. (range of motion) that they are supposed to! If one joint is too stiff then that affects much more areas of the body than that specific “joint area!” – “The” Trainer/Inside Out Fitness 05/04/2024
