I am moved….to write this for motivation’s sake.

Sometimes I wonder how people see me. Not the outside me, but the inside me. Do they ever see that scared little girl that wants to go into a corner and cry? Do they ever notice the teenage side of me who feels lost and totally awkward at times? Do they see the woman I am, while not seeing the woman I want to become?

Baby news....
Current mood: disappointed
Category: Writing and Poetry

Sometimes you just have to accept things and go on. I have avoided talking about this because it hurts. I wondered whether or not to blog this and decided it would be easier than answering all the emails when people keep asking when Kenny and I are getting our baby.

For my 2009, I am resolved to.....

1. I am resolved to focus on the good and not emphasize the bad.

2. I am resolved to be kinder in my actions, with my words, and my approach to others, as well as, myself.

3. I am resolved to love myself more, accepting the things I cannot change, while changing the things I can.

4. I am resolved to be a better wife and help mate, knowing a love like I am blessed with does not happen every day, but once in one's lifetime.

As Promised here Iam reflecting on 2008 and what was achieved with MFT . As you all know we have little cash to make this site what it is . This past year was huge success for us we gained more traffic and more interest from people all over the internet . This time last year we had 15000 people a month coming back to this site now we have close to 90000 . To me this is a great success so thank you to everyone who was involved for making this happen . Our goal for this year is to have a better site and more fitness expert involved .

For all the words you do not speak,
write them down.
Silence and what we hear
in the silence
is often our greatest teacher.

It is said that in order to find solace
we must seek our haven
beyond
where we are standing
and
LISTEN
with our hearts.

YOUR silence
speaks
loudly to me.
It echoes
through my senses
commanding
my attention.

Be all that you can be
because
YOU CAN
and know you are heard
and someone's
LISTENING

Yet again, another year has come and gone. It seems like only yesterday that it was Christmas 2007. It is intriguing how the years seem to go by faster and faster as I get older. I remember as a youth that I wished for time to go by fast because I had so many goals and aspirations and things I wanted to do and accomplish. And now that I am 62, I wish that I could slow time down.

Just a note from me to all the members here at MFT , I would like to take this opportunity to wish you merry xmas and happy holiday . I will write a big blog on the new year reflecting on what we achieved this past year so stay tuned in the mean time enjoy your xmas guys and girls !

I just wanted to tell you all Merry Christmas. I love you all! A special Merry Day to Jamo. You know this site means the world to me. Hugs to Mona, Bill, Steve, Will, Rachelle, Ravinous, and everyone else. Keep up the good work and know that even though I have been a little quiet lately, I think about you all often.

Remember the most important thing for the Spirit of Christmas is found within.
It doesn't matter what you believe, or who you believe in, what matters is that you BELIEVE.
And with that....may all your days be filled with LOVE, LAUGHTER, and HOPE.

Exercise Analysis: The Upright Row
by Bill Leavitt, RTSM, CMAT
http://kcfitness.com/hrlbhigh-risk-low-benefit-exercise-of-the-month/upr...

This old-school exercise is the perfect example of one that has been handed down for generations having a high risk-to-benefit ratio where there are safer alternatives to train same the muscles supposedly being targeted. What is the goal of an upright row?

Now that I caught your attention please read on.

It is amazing how rapidly time passes by. It is almost six months since my prostate cancer surgery. For those of you who don't know I was very fortunate in that my cancer remained within the prostate. Even though I am still dealing with some post-op issues, I was spared the ordeal of chemo and radiation.

ATTN: AZ Fitness Models

I'm taking a list of AZ Fitness Models that would be interested in promo model work for Red Bull and Monster during NBA All-Star Weekend in Phoenix. Feb 13-15th. More details will be given in 2 weeks. Simply taking a list and providing current details to individual inquiries

Happy Holidays everyone.
I have been so busy here lately that I haven't bogged that much. We had a historical snowfall for our area of the globe. We rarely get snow in our part of Texas. But on the 11th, we had about 2 inches here and as much as 4 inches in surrounding towns. I loved it for the school kids (and adults) that had never seen snow. The news media had a hay day with the weather reports. Funny, how snow in the south brings out the kid in all of us.

Thought this report was extremely interesting. IDEA sent a report on certain legistation attempts at licensing personal trainers and group fitness instructors in Washington DC and New Jersey.
