AMP Training: January 2015

Saturday, January 24, 2015. Does Your Weight Fluctuate? Every so often, you get the urge to hop on the scale and see where you're at, wondering where your relationship with gravity lies. Maybe its up, maybe its down. Who knows how gravity is going to affect you today. Quick physics lesson- The pull of gravity is different at different latitudes, so if you want to weigh a little less, move closer to the equator, or weight a little more go towards the poles. And let's take a look at what it's not measuring.

AMP Training: September 2014

Sunday, September 28, 2014. Why Do We Fall? Have you ever seen Batman Begins? I have. Multiple times. Why? Because the Christopher Nolan trilogy is freakin badass. Anyway, as I was watching Batman Begins, I noticed a theme and there is an amazing quote in the movie that I think we all need to remember from time to time, because often we look at failure as an end, as being defeated. As, well, failure. It's mentioned twice, once by Bruce Wayne's father and a second time by Alfred. Why do we fall? The bigge...

AMP Training: November 2014
http://amptraining.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 16, 2014. 8220;Our strength grows out of our weaknesses.”. When we focus solely on our strengths, we only get better and stronger at what we're good at. Only by taking a look at our weaknesses, assessing what they are, can we solve them and turn them into strengths. We often only do what we're good at because it is comfortable and we know we'll be successful at it. There is a lot of fear in taking a look at our weaknesses because we fear that they will lead to failure. Our passion lies w...

AMP Training: October 2014

Sunday, October 26, 2014. Movement is life. Life is a process. Improve the quality of the process and you improve the quality of life itself.". Take a look at the quote above. How do you interpret that? Movement, much like life, is a process. Each day you wake up is an opportunity to move, to improve your ability to move, to find new ways to move that you may not have thought of. When was the last time you crawled around on the ground? Go crawl your face off! Sitting, standing, laying, etc? Go out and im...

AMP Training: February Goals
http://amptraining.blogspot.com/2015/02/february-goals.html
Sunday, February 1, 2015. Leaders aren't born, they are made. They are made by hard effort, which is the price which all of us must pay to achieve any goal which is worthwhile.". Because of yesterdays Super Bowl, it felt appropriate to use a Vince Lombardi quote. Leaders are made. They are made by the situations they are thrust into, for the decisions they have to make in crunch time. Are you willing to put in effort? Maybe you need a little help getting there. The scale is just a number. Seriously i...

AMP Training: One Thing
http://amptraining.blogspot.com/2015/02/one-thing.html
Monday, February 16, 2015. When we start our pursuit towards a new goal, we often think about EVERYTHING we need to do in order to get there. What happens as a result of trying to do everything all at once is that nothing gets done. So let’s simplify. What is the one thing that you need to focus on right now?
