For those new to the site, I am a high school strength and conditioning coach. Core strength is abuzz in the sport and fitness community. What are core muscles? Core muscles include your abdominals, back, pelvis, and hips. Why are core muscles important? Core muscles play a big role in speed, agility, and power. Any athlete who is seeking to get stronger, faster, or more agile should be spending large chunks of time strengthening their core muscles.
I have uploaded a new core strength video. The video displays some of of the core strengthening exercises we do in the weight room on a weekly basis. The video shows exercises for the lower lumbar, side (obliques) abs, lower and upper abs, as well as hip flexors.

Journey back in time and enjoy a clip from Faberville -
A Very Merry Gear-Mas.
President Obama claims his stimulus package has saved or created 640,329 jobs. That number is a total farce (
source). Taking that
LIE/FRAUD out of the equation - if the those numbers were accurate, we would have spent $246,436.00 per job (
source). Forget for a moment who you voted for... look at this objectively, the stimulus plan is a train wreck. Now, these same people want to enact "cap and trade" and "government health care". There is absolutely
no evidence that suggests these plans will be any more effective.

The debate over man-made global warming aka Climategate continues to unfold as one scientist steps down and another goes underground (
source) due to allegations of FRAUD. There has actually been a decline in temperature over the past few years. Thus, it is no longer called "global warming". Now, it is called "climate change". By calling it "climate change" if the temperature goes either up or down it can be blamed on carbon, businesses, cow farts, or whatever is popular at the moment.

I had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I think most of the shopping is done. We are almost completely set for Christmas. My kids are at a stage when it is simply awesome to be a parent. My 10-year-old son is teetering on becoming a tween. My 3-year-old twin daughters are investigating everything.
My role as the strength and conditioning coach at the local high school is interesting. We set a new record yesterday, somewhere between 80 and 90 athletes worked out between 2:45 and 4:30. The weight room is big enough to support about 20 athletes. We were slammed, packed, jammed in shoulder to shoulder for almost 2 hours straight. It was awesome.
The science on "Global Warming" seems to be less than settled. Google the term
ClimateGate to get the latest details on how data has been hidden and destroyed in the name of protecting "man-made global warming".
