Hey San Antonio,
Me and Dan have spent a lot of time giving our personal training studio a total body makeover, and it is almost complete – we’ve rearranged, added things, subtracted things and have had the place painted. I’ll be posting updated pics and video later, but it looks amazing!
The circuit, plyometric, kettlebell, functional training, cardio fitness boot camp is in full swing – MWF at 5:30am and M-F at 4pm. You can do whatever class you want, and for the really daring, you can do all 8 classes per week (I dare you)… One of the attendees of the first boot camp summed up her condition to me last night: “Boyd, my legs, arms, abs, chest and back are on fire, but in a good way…” I love the “in a good way” comment when someone tells me they’re sore!
It’s time for my post-workout nutrition. I’ve found that using a combination of low glycemic carbs (oats) and moderate gi carbs (a banana) with whey protein isolate, followed by a low glycemic carb + lean protein meal (lean ground beef + whole grain rice) 90-120 minutes after that works great for me to begin recovery while stabilizing blood sugar and keeping me energetic. I’m often asked about the ideal post-workout shake and it is really person specific – I want them to keep their energy sustained (no crash) and do the most to increase recovery capabilities with food timing and proper supplementation.
If you haven’t checked out my main personal training website, go now: San Antonio Personal Trainer Boyd Myers. It’s loaded with articles that I’ve written, my blog, nutrition tips and other fitness related information.
You’ll get a good look at my approach. It’s my job to get people in shape, help them create a lifestyle that will KEEP them in shape, make them feel better and perform better in daily life, no matter what they’re lifestyle is. I’m an intense person, and I’m brutally honest about the fact that I’m not a big fan of how most personal trainers work. I believe in pushing a client – not to unreasonable expectations, but to a point at which their body will be force to adjust and train. I’m tired of bs myths and nonsense that personal trainers tend to pass off as fact, and I strive to help clients not become paralyzed by analysis and to help them cut through the garbage for the real meat of what will help them change their bodies. We aren’t into keeping clients “SOLD” like Lifetime or Gold’s – we HAVE NO QUOTAS. We aren’t pushing bs supplements to get our bottom line up and we aren’t jumping on the latest fads in diet and exercise. We employ science and real life experience to get the most for our clients. Simply put, we are the best at what we do – we are full time fitness professionals, and not those young “Ambercrombie” kids you see at Gold’s Gym that were working at La Cantera last week…
Time to eat – workout hard every time!
