Smiling in the face of Adversity

You've heard me talk about my flat tire stories. Well guess what, one more last night!

This is number 6 for me.

As I was driving back from my mother's birthday supper, it happened.

This is really testing my patience, but as the saying goes: "If Life throws you lemons, you turn them in lemonade".

What kind of lemons is Life throwing at you?

You might be going through a divorce, sustained an injury that has put a hamper on your training, loss of work, death in the family, an unforeseen mechanical problem on your car (my favourite), poor investment returns, and on and on we go.

Whether you like it or not, my mother would say: "This too shall pass"

I also like this quote by Frank A. Clark: "If you can find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn't lead anywhere. "

We've had our share of set-backs, challenges and criticism over the years and for them we are thankful.

You become very resilient and creative as well as strong and un-shakeable. You learn from every experience. That's why experience is so valuable. It shows you've been there, you've made mistakes and recovered, you've faced adversity and succeeded.

You should have a rule: you will not learn from anyone who hasn't been there. Let's take strength training for example. There are many places you can go to learn about it. But...

How many people can say they've tested their training philosophies for the past 30 years and experimented what worked and what didn't on thousands of students. Saving you the time and money to do this on your own.

How much would it of cost you to keep a center open for 30 years, trained over 25,000 test subjects and monitored their results, targeted every kind of person: big, small, tall, short, young, old, weak, strong, to know how they responded to the training, spent countless hours doing the training yourself to see which exercises would yield the fastest results.

How much? 100 thousand, 50 thousand, 25 thousand. It's priceless.

When you buy our strength training kits, that's what you're buying, all that time and experience, all that testing of what works, the trials and errors, all that for 79 $ bucks.

This is what I love about modeling. Instead of doing all the work you let somebody else do it for you. And this what we've done. I don't think you want to go through what we've been through to bring you this information.

Do it the smart way, your tried and true strength training kit is waiting for you right here.

Adversity?

Bring it on,

Sifu Martin
