Enough is Enough

With what is going on with baseball (not to mention all of the other sports) and the abuse of steroids, when is enough, enough. When are these role models going to live up to their billing? Who is going to step up to the plate and start to act like a responsible adult? When are the commissioners of the professional sports going to take control and stop steroids, drugs, and criminal acts?


Yes, not all of the professional population is using enhancement drugs, using drugs or doing criminal acts. But, why are they not saying something and trying to change what is going on. They should not be turning a deaf ear to what is going on.


These athletes have to understand that the youth of America follow their every move and look up to them. Research has shown that the increase of enhancement drugs is on the rise among young athletes. I believe that this is the case because many of the professional athletes use enhancement drugs and it is accepted and not looked down upon.


As sports enthusiasts we need to do something about this, but what can we do? Maybe we can stop feeding their addiction by not paying the money to go see them play. Stop watching them on TV. Show them that we are not going to accept these irresponsible acts. Maybe the league needs to make tougher guidelines with regards to the use of enhancement drugs, drugs, and criminal acts. All I know, I think that I am not alone, is that something has to be done.

Renegade Certification Weekend

To John, Grant & Renegade Crew,



Yet another jam packed certification weekend. John and Grant you always step up to the plate and hit it out of the park, without the use steriods. Thanks for making all of us the best we can be as trainers and individuals in life. (John - I am trying to type relaxed.)



To all of the those thinking about becoming part of the Renegade Training Team, if you do not join it will be the mistake of your life. But, if you are not ready to make the commitment then do not bother.
