Un bel beggining, Italia rinnegato




Saluti,




I am excited at this time to be preparing for the official launch of Renegade Italia! Renegade Italia will be launched in Jenkintown Pa at Scorpion Fitness . I will be posting a schedule for LPS and PINK Classes. I will also be Posting Renegade Italia group fitness classes as well. I as always am available for Advanced Sports conditioning and development, however, this is by special request only and requires a commitment for me to even consider. I truly believe that anyone in the Sports conditioning field whom does not is doing them self a huge injustice as we all know that to truly impact an athletes development it takes a full training cycle of Off-season, Pre season and In Season training. But enough about that.


A little info on the Renegade LPS and Pink systems (which are available at www.Renegadetraining.com) .


LPS System:uses a series of unique floor-based body weight movements that synthesize body control, movement with a foundation in dance (hip-hop). LPS provides the user with an extraordinary total body workout to develop and tone the abdominal/core, legs and a powerful upper-body.


LPS is creates Fluidity it also promotes "balanced" muscular development. This is paramount with exercise enthusiasts as well as high level athletes. Ask yourself how many people sitting and pressing away at the gym could actually "control" their own body weight? This program is one I use with my own mother and god daughter to every athlete I work with, period.


Pink is the quintessential program for practical application in a tried and true manner, without the mysticism and over-complexity that often dilutes the important physical benefits of yoga session.

Pink, is an easy to follow program that will help you feel young, stay fit and virile throughout your life.


Yoga at a glance can seem daunting , PINK is not, You will gain Flexibility,which will directly impact your Fitness and Vitality in everyday life.


I will be working on Renegade Italia Fitness DVD productions in the upcoming months, so I will also keep this blog posted in regards to that.


I recommend anyone who has yet to read any of John Davies brilliant books to do themselves a true service (http://www.renegadetraining.com/)


On yet another note:


The Champions League is winding down:


Can anyone truly say they enjoy the sheer arrogance of Man U?


not to mention that in my humble opinion it is ironic that three of the final four teams are from the premiership when I truly believe several relegation zone Serie A teams could best any of the three.


watching Wednesdays match I am somehow optimistic the Barca can go to Old Trafford and pull it off! Please!!


Just watch and enjoy:


Lionel Messi


anyways, I will post after weekends matches


Forza Roma!


Forza Barca!

vive ogni giorno

It has been awhile since my last post, and I am two games into spring 2008 season with Black 47 soccer. I am finding that the more "match fit" I become , the more match fit I want to be. what many people , especially the "gym" crowd do not understand is that "lifting weights" is EASY! It is also , pardon me for saying- boring. don't get me wrong, I am still a animal in the gym, but It is all to enhance my futbol, and vigorous lifestyle! I find absolutely nothing more pleasing than training at 7am on a 60+ degree day, sunny sky(theres my D3) and a chance to enjoy Sports and Life.
I will be posting over the weekend, hopefully some pics as well as even with in season training, moderate diet, and supplement consumpyion at a minimum my body has risen to a set constant weight of 195lbs. your body will find where it is comfortable, I am now a Fit 5'10" 195lbs...
oh well , another day in the sun calls.....
and Futbol fans...serie A
juventus vs AC Milan!!!!!!! saturday!!

I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much.-- Mother Teresa

Una questione di passioni di Lifes

Its been over a week since my last post and I have doing some serious reflecting. Reflecting on Life, Love, career, where I have been and where I want to go on this crazy rollercoaster ride called "my life". I guess the common thread I stumble on in each facet for myself is "Passion", You must have Passion in "whatever" you do , in your relationships, and oh Yes since this after all is a dedicated Fitness Blog- In Sport- whichever it may be . Instead what I see when I look around is a "numb", over medicated, unattached,uncommitted and way unfit society of people without any perception that we should be doing our best each day to learn and love "La Dolce Vita"- You may never be rich, be a big executive, or a pro level athlete- who cares! But why not enjoy what you "do" have?
I truly believe this is because we have "disconnected" ourselves from the rat race and uncaring world we have helped create. I had a teacher back in high school who influenced me more then than I realized, Mr. Caruso (Cardinal Dougherty H.S.) "Anything worth doing is worth doing right"! I will in now simply change Right to passionately..
Written across the class wall- Thanks My Caruso
and I think Francis Albert may have said the very best of all.....

All or nothing at allHalf a love, never appealed to meIf your heart, never could yield to meThen I'd rather (rather) have nothing at allAll or nothing at allIf it's love, there is no in betweenWhy begin then cry, for something that might have beenNo I'd rather (rather) have nothing at allBut please don't bring your lips so close to my cheekDon't smile or I'll be lost beyond recallThe kiss in your eyes, the touch of your hand makes me weakAnd my heart may go dizzy and fallAnd if I fell (I fell) under the spell of your callI would be, caught in the undertowSo you see, I've got to say no, noAll or nothing at all
