Lately, I’ve seen a lot of buzz online asking whether women (and even men) should ditch cardio and focus more on strength training—especially as we age. And as someone who has been coaching people in fitness for over 20 years, I get it. Trends come and go, but one question always remains: “Should I do […]
Ever feel like your body’s holding onto fat like it’s saving for a rainy day? You’re not alone—and no, your metabolism isn’t broken, lazy, or out to get you. In fact, it’s working all the time, even while you’re asleep, scrolling your phone, or claiming you’re “just resting your eyes” mid-Netflix. Metabolism is your body’s […]
Let’s settle this once and for all: Your abs were not designed just for beach photos. That six-pack might turn heads, but the real power of your core goes far beyond looking good in swimwear. You learned everything you needed to know about your core before you could even walk. Babies don’t do crunches. They […]
Been glued to your desk for hours? Your glutes aren’t thrilled about it. In fact, they’ve probably clocked out—overstretched, underused, and wondering if you’ve forgotten they exist. When the glutes go offline, your pelvis tilts, your spine complains, and before you know it, you’re walking around like you’re twice your age. Meanwhile, your hip flexors are living their best (shortened) life, pulling everything forward, while your abs quietly throw in the towel from neglect. But don’t worry, your backside can bounce back.

God’s creation has a way of speaking to us—quietly, powerfully, and consistently. And here in Kenya, we are blessed with some of the most beautiful landscapes in the world. The next time you feel overwhelmed, tired, or disconnected, step outside. Let the breeze hit your face. Listen to the rustling trees. Walk. Breathe. Be still.
As a 46-year-old father, my advice to parents is this: teach your kids that strength, fitness, and vitality matter—but don’t frame it as some elite or heroic pursuit. Fitness should be as normal as brushing your teeth, not some sacred ritual that makes them superior to others.
In a world where you can get instant food, instant entertainment, instant coffee and even instant dates, waiting months to see results feels like torture. Quick fixes prey on our impatience, our frustration with slow progress, and our deep desire for an easy way out. But here’s the truth: real, lasting health isn’t found in a bottle, a crash diet, or a “miracle” program. It’s built through smart choices, discipline, and patience.
For over two decades of working out, I’ve learned one thing: juggling fitness with work, family, and life’s daily chaos can feel like climbing a never-ending mountain. Time? Always short. Gym access? Not always guaranteed. But here’s the game-changer—have you tried the TRX suspension trainer?
Every fitness journey starts with a single step—or a single squat, if that’s your thing. Don’t let the post-holiday slump win. You’ve conquered challenges before, and this is just another opportunity to show yourself what you’re made of. Think of how amazing it’ll feel to look back in a few months and say, “Wow, I really crushed it!”
