A Little About Me

Owner & GM (and active user) of SuperSlow Zone, Silver Creek in San Jose. Late 40's ex-corporate type who entered the fitness field for quality of life - for self, for others - more so than "looks" and appearance. Lovin' the ability to make a difference via the SuperSlow protocol.

When I Started Working Out

October 2006

How I Started

Via SuperSlow in Fremont, CA

Why I Love It

Physical evolution (re-sculpting) plus enablement factors - can do things AGAIN that I couldn't do without strain or pain for quite some time.

How I Stay Motivated

The mirror, and my growing boys, are all reminders of why I *want* to be fit, let alone watching the deterioration of my parents due to lack of activity in their lifestyles. Knowing it only takes me 20 minutes makes it easy to maintain that motivation.

My Worst Injury

Happened BEFORE working out - because SuperSlow is designed to avoid the injuries incurred by bad form & behavior.

I Would Love To Meet

Arnold, various HIT experts & SuperSlow masters (already met Ken Hutchins), Arthur Jones (have to wait on that one, I know...).

Goals

Main Goal

To look & feel "fit", as an obvious example to my sons AND those I support via our business.

Short Term Goal

The next dress size.

Long Term Goal

Two dress sizes, and visible tonus throughout.

Bodyfat Goal

Weight Goal

Not applicable - muscle is the key, so DK how that translates into total poundage until I do true replacement of my ratios.

Favorites

Bodyparts (Opposite Sex)

Bodyparts (Yours)

Exercises

SuperSlow, twice a week.
Walking dogs, daily.
All else is recreational - don't find I need more.

Healthy Foods

Not So Healthy Foods

Lots - diet is monitored and balanced, but I don't feel I need to "deprive" myself of the things I love, so long as done in moderation.

Supplements

Univera (various).

Hobbies

Magazines

Books

Workout Music

None. Silence is golden in the workout room.
