Oh the famous words of Martin Luther King!  Hey just a quick word before it’s back to training.  Well the client list got busier this week… I picked up 3 new clients…. we will see if they will hang with the program or not. Also I have ruled out the house for a Gym…. just did not like the layout of it…plus I would have to drive everytime I wanted to train. So as of right now the dettached garage is looking like the best option. The T-shirts are in the works…. should be done in a couple days. The web-site…well I’m not sure how far he has got..but I will see him tonight. He is comming over to give me a heads up on what options the site will offer and how it is comming. So in short I hope to have those T-shirts online by next week at the latest. I have 5 of my 10 clients training today…. so I need to squeek my workout in before I get started on them. If you get a chance check out Katnap My Sis cleaned House in her first show!!  I’m proud as hell of her!  I know how hard she has worked to reach this point in her fitness journey.  Well the Iron is calling….. and you know I must answer!!!  And no Bryan!!  I dont need more to think about right now…..lmao   Make everyday count…and keep on Keepin!

The More Iron You Throw…… The More You Grow….. It’s That Simple!

Wow! This journey into bodybuilding has been some ride. When I started bodybuilding close to 2 years ago… I never dreamed it would lead to any where but sweating in my basement…lol  I wanted to get into shape…. but I never thought it would become such a driving force in my life! There are so many things I never saw myself doing… or should I say thought I could / would be doing? First off is my training. I never thought I would be a Personal Motivator for others. Hell to be honest…. when I started I was skeptical like my Wife…. how long will this last? I tend to lose interest in things very quiclky. Well since I have started training others… my passion for bodybuilding has grown even larger. Now not only do I get to see my own body achievements… I have 7 extra bodies (right now) to watch change. I also get to watch and enjoy the happiness of my clients as they reach and surpass their goals…. now thats exciting! I have been graced with the oppertunity to do a Ad for Bodybuilding.com in several different magazines. I also have a up comming billboard Ad for a local company named Armstrongs. I have also had a lot of exposure at the Hospital where I work… in news letters and Monthly Info print (largest Employer in the county) and now my Gym Gear. I’m working on a website right now (with some expert help…lol ) to Sale some of my Gym gear with different sayings. I have teamed up with a local print shop….who will be turning out my ideas. I hope to have it up and online real soon. I will offer T-shirts…. Muscle Shirts… Hats & Beanies and of course…. there is a large discount to my friends of "THE CIRCLE"  Just seeing Pics of you hard bodies in my gear…. would be awsome!!  Also I have some exciting news :  Last night after a training session with a Husband and Wife that I train very regular…. who have also become close friends to my family. They brought a very thought out business offer to the table. They want to become partners in the Gym I have been looking into starting (I mean out of my Basement….lol) and brought some very new and exciting ideas. I have been looking for a building for awhile…. but I refuse to over pay for it! They brought a very economical idea I had not considered. I have a 1 1/2 car detached garage…. that basically I use as a shed…. since I have a 2 1/2 car garage attached to my home. Well they brought the plan of converting that garage into a gym (very quick and easy solution) and would be about 3 of the Gyms I have right now. Renovation of the Garage into a gym could be done for under $25,000 including the extra equipment I would like to purchase. It would be all season ready  with a full bath. They said they would like to go in half on this endever. Well then my Wife threw out option #2 (she has a very good Business mind and sometimes keeps me grounded….lol)  She asked why dont you just convert your one property into your gym?  I have a Two bedroom Two Story House that is vacant right now. I’m already covering the mortgage cost anyways..why not use it?  I could use the first floor and full basement for exercise areas… have a Kitchen for the supplement whores…lol  Also has a full Bath… Could use one Bed room as a office / Gym gear Headquaters….lol and convert the other into a gaming room incase they bring kids along while they work out. Just have a couple X-box games and Tv’s and throw in a couple computers…. Just something to keep the kids entertained why the parents work out. That house also has a 1  1/2 car garage detached that could be used as a work out area in the warmer months. There is ample parking area and could be easliy re-zoned (spot zone) to OS from R-2… so I could operate the business out of it. Not the greatest layout I admit!  But could be used until a better oppertunity presents it’s self. Also free’s up cash for the purchase of the equipment I would like to add.  Well a lot to think about!! I also have a business oppertunity from are Bro of the Iron and his lovely Wife  Mr & Mrs. Trixter & JG  (AKA…. Adam & Courtney)  That just might work nicley into the online store for my gym gear.  If you want to know more about that oppertunity (which I think looks like a good oppertunity for some extra supplement money…lol ) you will need to ask Mr. Trixter….. thats his baby…. and he knows a lot more about it than I do!  Well I have a ton of things to get done today… starting with the moving of the Iron…. a rental repair…. and ending with Two training sessions tonight (oh and have to drop off my logo for the t-shirts) Well till then keep on Keepin…. you never know where your journey will lead you! For me combining Two things I love (working out and Business) it just dont get any better than that!!

To Supp? or not to Supp is the question! Well this topic has been a on going battle for a long time here on Bodybuilding.com and in the bodybuilding world in general. How effective are Supplements? Will you become more muscular using them?  Or do Supplements cause harm to the body?  Now for those of you that know me…. know that I love to use Supplements. If it’s out there I want to try it! Supplements also keep lifting interesting to me.  I get excited to see what a product will do for me…. or to me when I order one.  Now do I think you have to use Supplements to bodybuild?  NOPE!  I think you can do a lot with just using the proper nutrition and working out. OKay lets face it…. this is not the 1950’s anymore! Welcome to 2008 folks…. a time when everything is about speed and ease. Now I dont care how many Supplements you take…. with out busting your ass in the Gym…. your not going to get any where.  Just because the lable said that it makes lean Muscle Mass… does not mean it will happen without exercise.  Okay back to the point I was making about it being 2008! I know I for one do not have the time…. to eat 6 perfect meals a day. I dont have the time to cook (plus I really dont like to cook that much…. love to grill though) so with work…. 3 boys , Rental Properties, Yard and pool up keep, Training clients….. and working out myself…. I pretty much eat on the run! So to me it only makes since to use Supplements. If I only have time to eat 3x’s a day and I can make up what I’m missing with the help of a quick and easy shake! OKay how many times have you skipped a workout because you were to tired?  Dont Lie…. you know you have done it…lol  Well I dont really have that problem anymore. I use N.O Products to give me energy boost… Caffiene pills…. I also will use Power trip. I will take what ever I need to…. to get the GO going to pump the Iron. I know some people will say Supplements are not safe. They cause so many harmful side effects.  Okay maybe thats true in some cases…. but that dont mean it’s the norm. Hell everyone that smokes does not get cancer….. and everyone that drinks… dont die of liver failure. I’m pretty sure we will all die of something…. I just want to be a Freak when I go….lol  What was it like 10 years ago…. Eggs were going to kill you if you ate them?….lol  There will always be someone out to find a negative in a positive!  I dont beileve the hype either way till I try it.  Yes some of the supplements I have tried… just dont do a thing for me…. but I have heard other people say they work great for them.  Thats why I say you have to try it to see if it works for you…. everyone is different.  Here is another thing I think about! Bodybuilding.com Gives a great site…. with a ton of information…. Bodyspace (great people and support) and what do they charge us?  Yeah thats right…nothing!  Well how do they do this? The sale of Supplements!  I buy all my Supplements from Bodybuilding.com…. are they always the cheapest?  Not always….. but I believe in a thing called loyality! When you buy from Bodybuilding.com… that only enhances what they will offer back down the road! Look at the US economy… yep major slump!  Well here is a ideal…. keep buying things made over sea’s  and keep putting US citizens out of jobs!  Okay short of steroids…. I’m looking for any help I can get to grow! Hell if the prison factor was not one of the outcomes possible from using Steroids… I would try them.  It comes down to this!    TO EACH THEIR OWN!!    Do what you feel is right for you…. but dont knock me for doing what I feel is right for me!  Let your body do the talking…. Show use what a Supplement free body looks like. Now from a Supplement users stand point… I look at it like this (just my own thoughts here)  If your scared to use Supplements just admit it! Dont knock them ….. because you dont have the balls to use them. Most likley they would not work for you any ways.  Like I said…. you still have to Wrestle the Iron hard.  THE MORE IRON YOU THROW….. THE MORE YOU GROW!!!  And most likley you spend more time reading the crap written to down play Supplements…. than you spend in the Gym!   Oh and Yes Protien powder is a Supplement…. so dont try to pick and choose whats a Supplement and whats not!  Till then Keep on Keepin!

OKay My Peeps!!   Give me a little feed back here…  Please     I said I was going to get some T-shirts done for my Personal Motivating business. Well it took awhile to find some one who could draw…..lol   My Wife walks each day with a group of people at work…. and one of the guys is this really quite guy named Steve (Silent Steve…lol) Well it turns out Steve can draw like a Big Mug!!  Dude draws all kinds of stuff…. really big into like cartoon art.  Well he hooked me up with a logo  (worlds already had the Gorilla….lol)  So tell me what you think before I send them to print.  I have several diffrent sayings on the bottom of the logo…. and can put whatever I want. (Yeah the Ninja can work Paint shop pro 9.0 on his PC…lol ) Let me know if the logo is cool or if I need to bend Silent Steve over!…lol   Keep on Keepin!

OKay maybe you are new to bodybuilding… or maybe your one of the fine peeps of " THE CIRCLE "  either way here is Ninja school 101….lol   As I approach the 2 year mark of working out almost everyday… I realized that I’m not loosing steam. I’m as dedicated today (if  not more so) as I was on day 1.  Now in the past I have always started and lost interest in working out. I guess the reason I have become such a diehard is the fact I like to keep it fresh. I’m always changing up my work out routines…. and just like in a marriage you have to keep the spice alive or it gets boring.  I think one of the things that keeps the new in the game is all the different supplements I try. To me I like to try new things (some I stick too) but if it’s new I want to try it! I just like the excitement of maybe finding a wonder supplement that will take me over the top. Now do I believe it’s out there??   NO!  it’s just the supplement whore in me I cant control….lol   I also enjoy creating new exercises to do…. like my Prison Preps (#1 with my clients) I also have the Jack-knife Leg extensions…. Leg Extentions while at the same time doing crunches…oh yeah those will burn…lol  Rolling dips….  doing dips off the bench…placing your feet on a long bar and as you go down let the bar roll away from you…. then keep your feet on the bar and bring it back as you come up. Just anything to mix it up!  It’s kinda like sex… if you have one poistion…. you get where you dont even want to do it…  BORING!!!!   Now like my Bro BodyAuditor (Scott) throw in a Donkey…and it’s all good…lmao  I guess besides enjoying training others (or torturing..lol) making it fun and not a choir is what it’s all about!! I have also realized that I will never be happy! I will always want to be bigger… so there is no ending point. I dont have a end goal I’m shooting for. I’m in it for the long haul…. the day they stuff my super sized ass in a extra small coffin is the end date…lol  So if your just starting out…. there is no end tommorrow!  One week out you will not look like Branch Warren….  I know that sucks huh?…lmao  The More Iron You Throw…. The More You Grow!!  Thats what I tell my clients!  Hell I dont even really call myself a Personal Trainer….. I’m just a Personal Motivator! I’m just a tool for my clients to feed off of to help them keep going.  Plus there is no exit sign from under my bar….. you push it…. or I will let you wear it for a minute!  Fear is a great tool.  They have always said lead by example and thats what I try to do. When my Male clients say I want to have Arms like yours… I always say ….. then do what I do!  If I do 10 sets of 12….. dont stop at 3 sets of 6.  I like to think that the concept of building Muscle is easy. You keep Busting Ass…and your Muscles have no choice but to grow!! You lift like a Paperdoll….. and you will look like a Paperdoll! Pretty Simple.  Well thats Ninja bodybuilding 101….lmao I hope in some warped way you got something from all that… besides Donkey Sex is Awsome….lmao   Till then…… Hit it Hard and Hit it often…. and she will never stray!….oops  wrong lesson….lmao  I meant to say…. Keep On Keepin… Make the Big Happen!

Well here I’am comming off my 4 day vacation (first vacation in over 2 years… well more than 3 days off) and I feel quilty!!  Yep I went crazy on my diet. I drank way to much Beer!! I really dont drink that much… so this last few days I have felt my true Irish/Indian side emerge…lol  I’m such a Summer whore… man I love the sun! I really need to move to AZ… or back to Cali… so I can enjoy the rays year round.  I really hate winter. Grey skys, shitty roads, snow blowing to get out…. what do people really see in it?  Well I finally had to go all Gorilla on the neighbor guy about his Wolves. A guy that lives a couple houses up has four Wolves (same guy of the kid I take care of 24/7) and they do nothing but bark and howl non-stop. Man they are loud as hell!!  Well I said some thing to him about a month ago (in a nice way) about the Wolves being loud and the neighbors all complaining. Well I was hoping he would take the hint… but NOOOO!  His Retarded side pre-vailed. Well the night before I went to the Nascar Race I was laying in bed with my wife…. and those damn Wolves were going nutz. Then I heard my Neighbor Scott that lives behind me…. Yelling at Josh (Wolve owner/ Dumbass) He was trying to tell him enough was enough. Well I hear Josh going all postal.. about Scott being full of shit about the Wolves being to loud. So now I’m pissed that he is that stupid! So I slap on some shorts and it’s off to do some fence hopping. Well two fences later I’m in Josh’s face. I explained that I had tried to be nice about his loud ass dogs…. but this was total bullshit and I was done. Either shut the damn dogs up…. or I will **** you up!!  I have not heard his dogs since that night….  wow peace and quite. I guess you had to really be there to see how stupid he is. He was saying no one else had complained. Scott said they just dont have the balls to do so. I said I tried to tell you nice…but dude you just dont give a shit! Now I have listen to your loud ass dogs all I’m going too! He came back with…. well they wake me up also!  WHAT???  Then doing something Dumbass!! Now he cant take care of his kid… but he is all concerned about his Wolves. There should be a IQ test before you reproduce!!  Now his Son has been at his Grandmas for about a week now… we have not seen him. Well Josh called and left a message… His boy has Head lice…. wanted us to know so check our boys. I just cut my Boys hair the other day (yep summer Cuts..lol ) and they have no lice. The thing that pisses me off is this. His boy has a wild mop of hair on his head (not the boys fault) and all year when he was here every night… we would make him take baths / comb his hair / brush his teeth the basics! Now here it is about 13 days into the summer and the Boy has head Lice!  Ummmm  How about making sure the boy is taken care of?  Maybe cut his hair? Ummmm Showers help…. and I’m sure living in a house that is filthy…. with four Wolves dont help! Okay enough ranting…. it’s time to go toss some Iron to release the frustration of Stupid Neighbors!  I have always said fences make the best neighbors….lmao  Well it’s time to beat the Beer out of me…… till then….  keep on Keepin!

Happy F-day you diehards!!  Yep yesterday was pretty cool for the ninja… both beat some personal challenages and broke some personal records…..lol    First off…. Well you know I dont travel well (those of you that know me) but yesterday I took the family to the Michigan Nascar Race. It was about 3 hours away… first hurdle… then had large crowds cramped in small places… hurdle # 2…lol  Well everything went very well…. made it no trouble! The trip home last night was a little rough with the storm we went thru…. could not see shit and the wind was very intense! Okay the day of drinking , hot ass sun, the medication factor, and more drinking…. well might of helped…lol  I set a personal record of the most money paid for fast food….lol  I got 3 burgers, 4 bottles of water, and 3 fries….. all for the low price of $49.00  I was like holy shit…. no wonder everyone gets drunk at the races…. it’s the depression of the food prices…lmao  We packed coolers so we ate at the van most of the time… but the machine got hungry… and the Machine must eat….lol  It was kinda funny to see all the paperdolls running around with their shirts off…. if that storm had come to the track earlier…. they all would have blown away….lol Well I’m off today (took it off) so it’s back to the Iron…. okay I’m out of the park for six-pack abs…. but hey I’m hoping my chest/shoulders/arms draw the attention….lol  My legs are comming along also…. I use to hate leg days…. but now it’s one of my favorites!  I hope you all had a great fathers day….single mothers included…. yep that counts!  Keep on keepin till then!

OKay I got a Manta Ray …. and I’m really just wanting to try it…lol  They had a block sale yesterday around my nieghbor hood…. so I told my client Eric….. come on lets walk around and see if we can find some Iron for sale (can never have enough Iron) well we did not find one lb any where…. which leads me to believe…. that all my nieghbors are sissies…lmao  We had to stop Garage hoppin…. I was thinking people were thinking Eric and I were a couple…lmao Do real Men Garge Sale together?…lol  I dont know what Eric was thinking… he asked if he could do the grilling when we were going to eat…. those are fighting words!!  You dont ask to touch another mans Grill!!…lmao My whole week was filled with some really awsome CW comments…. so I think this weight gain is really muscle…..     I also have had a little size gain (measured) in my arms…. yeah for bigger arms!! Well I have the day off… just got up from working 3rd and 3 extra hours into first shift. So now I must go toss the Iron…. then I’m going to swim and chill the rest of the day with my family. I have a rental I need to go get ready to rent again…. but it will be there later. Wow I’m getting lazy in my old age…lol  Till then keep on keepin!
