This is a guest post by Coach Michele Lian, from the Transformation Camp team.
If this is you right now, I feel you. I really do. This is me on some days too. In fact, this was me just days ago. You see, I have a race to train for. It’s not a full, or even a half-marathon, but it’ll be challenging enough for me to feel like I’ve accomplished something significant when I do cross that finish line, given that I’m not that great a runner. This means that building my strength and endurance so that I can run for longer without stopping is crucial. [click to continue…]
I happen to be in Melbourne, Australia at the moment for a short getaway and to attend the Planetshakers Conference 2012.
This morning, I managed to sneak in a workout at 7:30AM.
I completed a 5.2 km run and a short but challenging Transformation Camp finisher circuit at a park nearby.
These roads are BEAUTIFUL - and hilly!!
Wouldn't you want to run here?
Can't lose my way with my Suunto Ambit
The way back home
Pavements everywhere - you won't need to run on the road

Quickie workout FINISHER at a park in Melbourne. I wish my campers were here!
I’m glad I brought a waterproof jacket, and shades – otherwise I would have freezed my eyeballs off as the weather was fluctuating between 15-19 degrees celsius and there was also a short drizzle for about 10 minutes. [click to continue…]
Ask any random stranger you see at the gym, and chances are the number 1 goal for most people would be FAT LOSS. So today, I’d like to briefly get you thinking about your METHOD of training for best fat loss results. By the end of this blog post – you’ll be able to ‘inject’ some new life into your workouts and get closer to your dream physique.
If you’re one of those who spend more than 1 hour training at the gym – this is for you.
The Problem with Most Workout Routines
If you’ve been reading lots of Muscle & Fiction Fitness or most bodybuilding magazines, or still following old-school style training programs designed by trainers who don’t stay on the cutting edge of the latest research, chances are you’ll be doing something like this:
1. Machine Rows: 8 reps x 3 sets
Long rest.
2. Dumbbell Shoulder Press: 8 reps x 3 sets
Long rest.
…. you get the idea.. B-O-R-I-N-G.
Not that something like this is bad for you, but the 90s just called and they want it back!
And not only that, but most of the generic workout programs you’ll find in a bodybuilding magazine is written for that purpose – bodybuilding, and since we’re discussing routines for fat loss today (since that is what most people are after) – most typical routines you’ll come across are not your best option.

Not too long ago, I wrote a simple review about my first heart rate monitor – the Suunto M5. Ever since then, I always feel as if something is ‘missing’ when I train without it. Recently I got my hands on the new Suunto QUEST, and all the MORE, I am compelled to share my [...]
