Team USA is auditioning for their Mixed Martial Arts National Team and in typical MMA style, the audition is a Fight Off. Corey Johnston from Woodstock Mixed Martial Arts will be taking part, fighting in the 170 pound amateur weight class. His coach will be Carolyn Schulenburg and his fight crew will be Kurt Schulenburg, Alan Dyson, [...] There are a lot of health and fitness gurus and nutritional experts out there who will be glad to sell you the “Secret to Staying Young”. Our TVs are awash in ads for products that restore hair from there or remove it from here, skin and facial creams and… uh… other products to regain youthful vigor. There are [...] WMMA BootCamp Kettlebells Kettlebells are one of the latest exercise trends, but they have actually been in use in Russia since the early 1700s where they were used as counterweights in the marketplace.

You know you need them for the vitamins, the fiber, the phytonutrients that only plants have. But… simply adding more servings of the same vegetable or fruit doesn’t cut it. An apple a day may keep the doctor away, but a bushel of them isn’t going to [...] At our self-defense seminar last week, we mentioned that the “bad guys” are a lot like wolves looking for the most defenseless sheep. They’re not going to go after the strongest, they’re going to target the weakest. Quite often, fat kids are fat (in part) due to a lack of exercise. They are big, but speed, [...] Here are some video clips from the Chicago NAGA tournament held on April 24, 2010. I’ve got some great shots of the backs of heads, the floor, the ceiling – and in between the crowd of people, sometimes you can vaguely make out a grappling contest in progress!
