I was trying to think about what to write about today.

At first I did not know what to write, but as I reflected on the week before the ideas started coming in.

Last Weekend with Mike Robertson

The feedback from last weekend has been incredible.

My and Mike’s Facebook pages were plastered with all kinds of kind words from people that attended.

I do enjoy bringing the best to Vancouver to help trainers, coaches, and therapists learn from the best.

Mike Robertson is one of the best.

If you missed out on last weekend, here is a clip from it:

The Next Big Name

After hosting Eric Cressey and Mike Robertson for 2010, people have been asking about who I am going to bring next.

It is Justin Price.

He will be coming to Vancouver in March 2011.

Even Mike Robertson Had a Good Time in Vancouver

Since I know how it is to be a presenter and host courses, I do all I can to make it easy for people that I host to present fitness education courses.

I did the best I could with Mike as well, and it sounds like it turned out well.

Mike did a very kind review of his weekend teaching in Vancouver, CLICK HERE to read it.

So Many Thank You’s

I think my family are the only ones that know how much time I put into blogging, doing videos, and Facebook.

It is great to hear that it is helping people.

Please do keep letting me know what you would like me to write on and help with.

More Kind Words

With the end of the year coming, I have been marking Muscle Imbalances Revealed exams like crazy.

Trainers, coaches, and therapists have been trying to get in their CECs and CEUs before the end of the year.

This is what a few people have said about Muscle Imbalances Revealed:

“Great review about the lower extremity from many perspectives and how it all ties together.  It was great to learn different assessment and treatment techniques to use.”

Martha Andrews, PT, MA, MPT, CSCS, CPT

Physical therapist, exercise physiologist, Personal Trainer

Lansing, MI, USA

“I will use Muscle Imbalances Revealed to rehabilitate my clients to full functional capacity.  MIR has helped me look at the causes and not the symptoms, a holistic approach.”

Christina Holmes

Practicing Kinesiologist

Surrey, BC, Canada

I think that is it for this week.

Until next week.

Have a great weekend getting ready for Christmas.

Take care.

Nine months of planning and preparation has arrived, and the Mike Robertson’s Bulletproofing Your Client’s Knees and Lower Back seminar is here.

It is so cool to be able to bring the best from around the world to the trainers, coaches, and therapists around Vancouver.

He had a great course planned with a big thick manual of what we were going to go through.

From the start of the course, he started delivering.

He started the day asking:

“What are the Top 10 Questions You Want Answered this Weekend?”

This is the list the group came up with:

• What to do about PFPS (Patella Femoral Pain Syndrome)?
• How to assess function movements?
• What to do about a posterior tilt?
• What are the best exercises for a disc herniation?
• How do you do core regressions?
• What can you do about SI (Sacroiliac) joint issues?
• When should you do rotation exercises?
• Keys to proper squatting.
• What are the key relationships between the knee and hip?
• How do you increase (gluteus maximus) function?

What trainer, coach, and therapist does not want to have one or more of these questions answered by one of the best?

So cool.

I am so excited for the weekend.

I am ready to learn and so is the small group of people, ranging from medical doctors to group fitness instructors, that have come from around the world to be here.

Having your questions answered from the best in the world in an intensive weekend seminar/course is so great.

I love bringing the best to Vancouver and can’t wait to bring more of them, like Justin Price.

I will have some more information on what I learned and some video clips from the course.

Here is a quick clip from today:

Rick Kaselj, MS

Yeah, it is Friday and I am doing my rambling.

I do like this post.  It gives me a chance to reflect on the week and see what has happened.  All of the good and bad.  Thankfully it is most often good.

Helping Out Strength Coach Podcast

I saw that the Strength Coach Podcast was having their 3 Year Anniversary Giveaway.

There was no way that I could not help out.

So I contacted Anthony Renna and he said it would be a huge help, and it would be something the thousands of strength coach listeners would benefit from.

Facebook Shout Out

I know some people get enough of me from my emails and blog, but many more people follow me on Facebook where I give even more information to help people out with their injuries.

It is so great to hear when the information that I am sharing helps others like the gang at Le Physique Personal Training.  They had some kind words to say about all I am doing on Facebook:

More Rave Reviews of Muscle Imbalances Revealed 2.0

Okay, I know, another raving review for Muscle Imbalances Revealed 2.0 – or as I call it, MIR2:

“Muscle Imbalances Revealed gives you a chance to learn from some of the very best in the world from the comfort of your own living room, on your own schedule.  Forget finding time to get away, costly travel expenses, flight delays, and hotel booking nightmares.  You can do it all from home!  Frankly, I have a responsibility to my clients to stay on the cutting edge of this industry, but I hate taking time away from them and my family.  With Muscle Imbalances Revealed I can stay at the top of my game without leaving my house.  This is simply a brilliant product that anyone looking to stay at the forefront of the fitness industry should watch.

Last Weekend Presenting

Last weekend I did my last set of courses for the year.  It is always sad when this happens.  Before I wrapped up, I made sure I had things set up for 2011.  If you would like to see what fitness education courses I have coming up next, CLICK HERE.

Here are some of the kind words from the registrants:

“Exercise Rehabilitation of the Neck course is very well explained.  A lot of explanation, examples, and hands on practice.”

Elizabeth Szabo
Pilates Instructor and Personal Trainer
New Westminster, BC, Canada

“Exercise Rehabilitation of the Lower Back course is a very good hands-on course.  Will definitely recommend to colleagues / peers this course and resources”

With that being said, there is one more course left this year.  The Mike Robertson Bulletproof Your Client’s Knees & Lower Back course.

I am so excited about this and a lot of other people are as well:

I will do what I can to take some video from the weekend.

That is it.

We will see many of you tomorrow at the course.  I have to head off to get the handouts for the course, and I have one extra handout.  If you want to go, CLICK HERE and register.

Please do not hunt me down and call me at 10 pm tonight and ask if you can register.  That is not cool.

That is it, have a great weekend.

In March of this year I was in Indianapolis.

I was there to live one of my dreams, which was to go to the NCAA March Madness Final Four Basketball Tournament.

It was an amazing experience.

Yes, it was Madness.

While I was out there, I met up with Mike Robertson.

While we were chatting about things, we did a quick video answering a question that I got from a blog reader about knee pain.

Have a look and listen to what Mike had to say:

I am so excited.  I just got a new DVD set from my friend, Mike Robertson.

The program is called The Single-Leg Solution.

I am review it right now.  I will make sure to let you know what I think of the product.
