Denial... Well, getting with the program is never too late!

Hello Folks,

My strength has always been my motivation to train.  Now, being father of four, and head of a Zoo, fanatic workouts is something in the distant past.  The problem that emerged from all this is that I turned into a beast.  I can literally squish people if I chose to roll over them, "people" being my own children sitting on the couch with me.

I have done diets, some have been more successful than others.  Most seemed to have cost a bit of money.  I also would rebound quite well from the newly acquired low weight.  I fit the profile perfectly, yo-yo-weight-man, I hate it.

About 9 days ago, I spoke to a rower in Canada.  We chatted about fitness business and we both keenly shared that we read the 4 Hour Workweek.  Then, I was told that I should read the 4 Hour Body, which I heard of before, but quite simply was not enough in distress to buy and read.  Ironically, when I spoke to my rowing friend, my distress level reached the boiling point.  My body weight was at an all time high and I medicated my heart burn with baking soda.

Fast forward to today, I am 13 pounds lighter and already feel a lot better.  What changed? I started reading the 4 Hour Body, and implemented the chapter on slow carbs.  No more in my diet was: Milk, white carbs, sugar drinks, rice, bread...., I substituted carbs with lentils and beans, amazing, I never had eaten many legumes, but here they were, being happily consumed by me instead of bread and pasta. 

It is ironic that one is open to change at different times throughout life.  Who knows, had I known of the slow carb diet... a la 4 Hour Body, I would have gone even faster during my competitive years.

The purpose for this blog entry, is not to shamelessly troll for new business of which I can be guilty of at times.  In the contrary, I would like to simply share great information.  Exercise is great for building capillaries, enjoying endorphins, building stronger muscles and bones, but it is pretty lame for weight loss.  It is true that exercise helps you burn energy of different fat and glycogen, but it is very inefficient and often leads to increased appetite :-0, and in some case a pulled muscle in the back...

If you are like me, give the 4 Hour Body a shot :-)

Rowing Coach says: 90 day rowing camp | no need to travel! CRASH-B

Rowing coach says: 90 day rowing camp no need to travel Crash-B

Do you want to row faster? The simple solution is to join the 90 day rowing camp, no need to travel says Rowing Coach Xeno.

NO matter what type of competition you are getting ready for.  You deserve the best coaching available.  Whether you are a rowing coach or an athlete, Xeno Müller can help you.

Rowing Coach Xeno says: 90 day rowing camp and no need to travel, sounds good? 

Whether you are getting ready for fall races, Crash-B, or summer regattas, you want to make sure that your technique is spot on and that you are training right and eating right.  You invest so much time into rowing and you are working hard.  You deserve the best.

It is therefore extremely important that the training information you have is spot on.  The quality of your training will have a crucial impact on your results in competition.   Don't let the opportunity sleep between your fingers.  Get the most advanced information now from a coach who is known for his technical skill and proven success rate as a rowing coach.

You don't have to worry about travel expenses or time spent at airports and airplanes.  Simply record your training and share it with Xeno online.  You will receive a complete commentary on your rowing skills and a training program to follow.  You can discuss your progress as you follow the program.  Use the six digital analysis during the 90 rowing camp.  Results vary BUT you will row faster!

Don't be fooled, hard work lays ahead, but it is smart training, none of that 10 X 500 garbage and do as many intervals as possible till you drop unconscious.  This is a recipe for disaster.

With Xeno you will enjoy seeing you aerobic capacity improve.  Your mitochondria count will go up and your lactate tolerance will go through the roof.  Imagine how awesome it is going to feel when you are in your third 500 meter and instead of dying you actually start pushing harder and looking forward for your final sprint!  Does this sound impossible, worng?

It is POSSIBLE!

Why did I win the Olympic gold medal in the single scull.



Why did I win?

I weighed more than Lange and Porter and certainly the rest of the field.
I was the shortest of the medalists.
I was not the strongest on the erg.

It happened because:

Enormous amount of training, without overtraining.
Simple and effective use of the body coupled with a timely catch and a clean square exit of the blade.

Turning 40!

Happy birthday to all of you born in 1972, the year of the rat.

I am turning 40 in August. Wow, I can't believe it.  How is it possible, when I can still remember turning 28 and how fit I felt when I competed at the Sydney Olympics?  These last 12 years went by in a flash.  Before, I could remember all the different years, because of the venues I traveled to as an athlete. It all ended in 2001, noooooo!
