I’m a big fan of routine and daily rituals. Flying by the seat of my pants stresses me out. I find freedom in discipline and sameness. It helps me accomplish more and it eases my mind. In this episode, I break down the ten things I have to do every day to feel completely fulfilled. Some of them are related to productivity. Others have more to do with relationships. And a few are just for general overall health. Mind, body and spirit. The importance of paying equal attention each day to “the four pillars” is often overlooked. Many people just… continue reading.

Kenny (@CoachKJKnows) and I are back dropping lines and spitting rhymes in another power packed episode. With the nationally televised Hannah Storm stiff arm last week, we thought we would highlight our favorite outbursts of all time. Last week I posted a picture on my Instagram feed that got a lot of questions. I thought I’d take a few minutes to explain why I’m finally fixing my broken metabolism and doubling down on carbs. On the flip side of today’s episode, we welcome back our favorite Hawaiian, Nate Miyaki. (@NateMiyaki) We talk carbs and cut through… continue reading.

On this episode of the Jay Ferruggia show we’ve got Will Revak from OraWellness.com discussing the importance of oral health. We talked about everything from gum disease, the truth about fluoride, toothbrushes, flossing and why the mouth is the gateway for all diseases. We also discussed the link from gum disease to heart disease and how oral health affects your digestive and immune system. Most people overlook their oral health and just give their teeth a quick once over. Many skip flossing. And just about everyone will put off a trip to the dentist. Hopefully that will change after… continue reading.

1. Start With a Targeted Warm Up You’ll see a lot of people flop around on a foam roller to “get warm.” That does nothing to get your shoulders ready to train. Instead, you need to focus on learning which of your muscles don’t fire properly and what drills get them going. Here are a few of my favorite shoulder activation movements for you to try. Prone Y- Raise Iso Holds… continue reading.

Guest Post by Nate Miyaki, Author of The Truth About Carbs Don’t call it a comeback; carbs have been here for years Building rockin’ bodies amongst my peers Puttin’ misinformed low-carb suckas in fear…. You want the Carb Truth? Do you think you can handle it? Carbs are gonna knock you out…in a good way baby. Carbs trigger serotonin release, which induces restful sleep.

But if you flip the script and include some carbs with dinner like Momma, Miyaki,… continue reading.

Guest Post by Chris Lopez, CSCS, SFGII When you’re training – regardless if you’re using kettlebells, bodyweight or barbells – you must have an “internal focus”. That means that we don’t concentrate on what the resistance is doing – the external resistance – but on what our body is doing…we shift the focus internally. I’m a kettlebell guy, so the references that I’ll make will be to the kettlebell. BUT, don’t dismiss what I’m saying because of the implement that I refer to. 

”The Internal Focus Principle” is transcendent.  It applies to all training, whether or not you use kettlebells,… continue reading.
