Been busy wrapping up the semester so not much to write, just thought id check in.  Started reading Charlie Francis, Key Concepts which lays out CF structure of workouts a little better than his other book I read, Training Systems.  On a personal note started listening to podcasts on these drives out to Jersey, getting tired of listening to music all day.  At least with podcasts I'm learning something new haha.  The biggest thing I've begun to learn is you ALWAYS have to learn.  I would get lazy and just come home and (for the most part) watch tv or bs on the computer, chaulk it up as, "Im in college I read enough during class and for my assignments".  I would definatly read articles posted online, but nothing like I've been doing lately with this internship, reading training books, research articles, etc.

I could still be doing better with it but slowly trying to get better habits, like reading more, getting up early even though I don't have to to get more done, whatever I have to do to be successful at training and more importantly life.  My thing is find the successful people and do what they are doing, and the guys at Defrancos get up early and read or get stuff done so they can read later.

So, now that you know my motivation (success) I'll leave you guys with a few pics ive taken over the past couple days.  I'll check back in with more notes soon.

Pro guys getting some sled pulls in.  

Joe recently sung the praises of the supplement company ONNIT.  He won't endorse it unless he uses it himself (he did even before they contacted him).  If its good enough for Defrancos then its good enough for you.

Still have regular internship duties, clean the bathrooms, keep the gym neat, put away apparel… really not bad at all though.

Kicker who recently started coming into Defrancos.  It was cool because the coach who works with him lets me take some of his guys through the warm up so even though its quick and only a warm up, its my first one-on-one time with athletes here.  Simple step but rewarding!
