Why “Max”?

Posted by Justin on Jan 22, 2013 in In The Gym, Movement, Nutrition & Health, Outside the gym, Uncategorized | 0 comments Whether it’s my client’s training or my own, I believe in being MINDFUL of one’s actions, and PURPOSEFUL in one’s actions.

Posted by Matt on Jan 11, 2013 in In The Gym, Nutrition & Health, Paleo, Uncategorized | 3 comments Hello NorCal, Welcome to January 2013.  We made it even with the Mayan calendar ending!  Every year clients, myself, and other people set goals for themselves.  Time and time again many of those people don’t even come close to their goals (myself included).  This happens for many reasons and I am going to tell you why.
