We all help each other and WE ALL CLEAN UP. Bring water and an indomitable will. Check the blog 1 hour before you come down if there is foul weather or just in case--stuff happens. Subscribe by email or blog-reader to get updates (so I don't get 50 texts everyday). And, P.S. Meditate...It is the true Strongman Training.

What if Dark Matter...
What if Dark Matter... was just the same matter in different time dimensions. I have said this myself about Dark Matter (and lost socks in the dryer) for years. No one listens to me because I lift stuff. Seriously. Kaku better get with the fact that Strongman means Strong Body, Will & Mind, buddy.

Chris Collins Blog @ ChrisCollinsAction.com
Okay. If you haven't heard of Chris Collins and you are a Martial Artist, Strongman, Athelete, Warrior, man in general you should. Read his blog and find out why for yourself. He is a Modern Day Complete Warrior and wise man. But judge for yourself. I am often crazy and like to put pudding on most foods.

The Best Martial Arts Style is...Fishing?
At Strongman, we like all men and women throughout the ages, talk about which is the best style of Martial Arts. We have many practitioners of many styles:
Wing Tsun,
Taekwondo,
Aikido,
Wrestling,
Muy Tai,
BJJ,
MMA,
Schwarzen-bunny Death Paws,
Ogre Boxing
I'll-drop-a-270lbs.-stone-on-your-head-fu,
Say-hello-to-my-sledgehammer-punk-do,
etc.
The UFC was founded on this contest. I searched through my ancient Martial Arts scroll and bubblegum card collection and came upon this passage from an ancient Japanese fishing text written by a woman who wrote under a male pseudonym of Mikoden. The text title translates to:
"Fish Catching It's Own Tail". See if it puts this age old question to rest.
"Most contests of fishing prowess
come down to the man and luck, not style.
On any given day the fish could bite
your lure and not mine,
no matter how experienced I am.
Let me be more clear...
If you practice fishing...just fishing--
If you become the rod and lure--
If you become the sea and sky and fish--
You will eat forever."

Bushido
Bushido
Sometimes, making a hard choice requires a
great deal of courage. Situations which require us to make these choices don't
necessarily come when we are called upon to save someone's life or commit a
heroic act of such degree that will gain us any kind of recognition or
notoriety. Most of the time, it is the simplest of situations which force us to
make a choice between taking a chance to do the right thing or remain in the
shadows of our own pride, embarrassment or fear and merely observe with regret.
Bushido dictates that we must act to support goodness and right action
regardless of our level of comfort with the intervention. Sometimes, the lives
or well-being of others will depend on our ability to rise with courage at any
given moment, usually when we least expect it.

The Essence of Zen
"When I'm walking, I'm walking; when I'm
eating, I'm eating; when I'm flipping tires, I'm flipping tires."

Back from Abu Dhabi...time for Strongman!
Back from the other side of the world. Abu Dhabi was...HOT. Also it was beautiful, the desert anyway. Dune Bashing in an SUV was like a ride in an F-22. The hotels were opulent to say the least and made me feel much guilt for staying in them as I drank Lebanese beers at pool bars and roof top pools and pools in 7 star hotels Susanne and I crashed:) The Grand Mosque, a treasure. Boating around the islands, great. The water was so salty you could almost walk on it. Kayaking in the Mangroves was awesome. My new niece is beautiful. SO good to see my Brother-in-law Mark and his Mrs.: Steph (heh, I wrote that cause Steph will hate it:). They always know how to plan the best adventures. Susanne took me to London. Only city I have ever wanted to move to. The art in the churches and monuments and parks...beyond belief. Ale's were warm and heavy and wonderful. Sadly my "Special Forces Training" consisted of too much sitting in the AC, hotel gyms, sitting in 12 hour flights, petting a camel, a city walk of London and some dune walks...my body is a mess... so BACK TO STRONGMAN!
