You deserve better than 2nd!!

Posted on February 20, 2012 by Rowie

PT-Course-BEST

NO 2nd BEST for YOU!!

A HAPPY, WOW end to your FAB FEB and bring on a MARCH full of Magical moments xx
No 2nd best for you!! YOU deserve the best food, the best exercises, the best career; relationship, education, holidays, home, car, clothes-LIFE!!!!
Everytime you settle for 2nd best or the worst, you are telling your self esteem that you are not good enough to have the best.
As consumers we never want to buy the 2nd best of anything and we never remember who came 2nd in any event. So in business and in your career-You have to be the best!!Always ask, your customers and clients (or your boss), “What do I need to do to be the best for you?”. You will be surprised. The BEST only has to be a tiny bit better than what people are accepting now AND most times you can provide the best for your customers and clients (or your boss) without investing too much time or money!!
And exercise-please don’t waste your time on 2nd best or stupid exercises when the best ones are available and work faster!!
And food-please do not put less than the best food in-you will then have to expect a 2nd best or worst performance.
AND life is too L-O-N-G to have a career or a relationship that is not the very BEST!!
Have, BE, DO and become the best-for what it will make of you!!
Have THE BEST week ever (until next week)

Please Do NOT Train with an UNQUALIFIED Personal Trainer

Posted on February 20, 2012 by Rowie

Be a FULLY Qualified PT

Is your Personal Trainer fully qualified?

PLEASE HELP ME?? I rarely ask for help so this request is very important to me…

If you are a Personal Trainer/Fitness Instructor, if you are a MAX student, if you have a “Fitness Professional” helping you to achieve your health and fitness goals OR if you employ “Fitness Instructors”,
I need your help to stop a dangerous trend…  

The fitness profession has trainers / is employing trainers and the trusting general public are paying trainers who are not qualified; people who have not completed their qualifications, they are not registered professionals and they do not have insurance!!
BUT they are training people and being paid to do it??
An easy challenge to fix and it can be fixed fast…

• If you are training people and being paid for it and you have not 
  completed your qualifications, do the right and respectful thing and
  complete your qualification
• If you employ a trainer/trainers please ask to see their Qualification 
   Certificates. If they do not have the required paperwork, check with
   their education provider. (MAX has ALL our qualified International
   Fitness Professionals on our website. Please only employ fully qualified trainers!!
• If you pay a fitness instructor or personal trainer ask them and or their employer to see their qualifications. If your trainer is not qualified and you choose to
 continue training with them, at least you will know the risk and the truth 

I am fighting for the Government, the Medical Professionals and the general public to give my fitness profession the respect it deserves as the number one answer for fighting fat, disease and depression and the very best way to be healthy, stay young and be energetic BUT I am fighting the small group of lazy, unprofessional, deceitful people who are pretending to be qualified and will give us all a bad name!! 

Thank you for your help
Love Rowie xx

Why you should NOT Come to MAX-The only exclusive, Fitness Business College in the world

Posted on February 16, 2012 by Rowie

PT-MAX-High Standards

MAX: The HIGHEST level fitness business education in the world

A letter to MAX…Hi greg,Ive done a quick search and spoke to a few friends currently working for different gyms.  None of them have heard of your school another search I found some scalding reviews of your contract based learning.  Ive decided I wont be attending the appointment we scheduled and im sorry for wasting your time. Mark

Happy FUNDAY (Fri) Mark, and a special Thankyou and Congratulations for deciding not to come to MAX,

A MAX fitness business education for the profession of fitness requires focus, drive, determination and serious commitment and no, unfortunately, the fitness “Industry, as it is now, is not stepping up to the high standards of MAX. Our goal is to have this most rewarding career recognised as a Profession. Yes, most of our MAX International Fitness Professionals do not “work” in gyms, they open their own PT studios, or they go and work in the PT studios of MAX Graduates. This is our history and our future because we are a Business college, not a fitness course. Our Graduates need professional places to have a career in fitness and are not looking for, “Jobs in gyms” where the, “Job” is still considered casual, part-time and is mostly low paid. The uniform, punctuality and professional standards of most fitness facilities are embarrassing for MAX graduates.

Being a smart guy, having read the tough MAX application / acceptance application, having seen and read about all the real life people who have graduated from the very tough MAX Diploma AND who have fitness businesses, I can only believe you are only looking for a, “Job in a gym”. So once again Thankyou and Congratulations, MAX is definitely not for you.

I really appreciate you letting us know and we all wish you every success with your research for a fitness course that will suit you.
And as we wish for all, please have a career you love and never a job you don’t!!

Warmest Regards Rowie –The MAX College Founder
Positively Changing The Health & Fitness of the World

YOU can have a successful PT Studio!!

Why you will or won’t be RICH??

Posted on February 15, 2012 by Rowie

PT-$$$

How Much Value do you Add to ALL of YOUR World?

THE month of FAB FEB-of course yours is WOW, you have chosen it to be xx

Money, wealth, $$$-the news is full of it, the world seems to have spent it all and most folks spend their days trying to get more of it-just to pay the bills and get by??

Why are some folks rich-regardless of the financial situation of their country? Why are some folks always broke no matter how much money they make? AND there are millions of books on wealth creation and how to get rich but most of the world is poor or, “Just getting by” WHY??

The, “Rich” folks, the ones who made their money from scratch (did not inherit it or were given it) are very happy to share how they became rich and it is all very simple!! The only challenge is if you really do want the freedom and choice that come with wealth, you do have to DO the simple things, not just read about them. A lot like weight loss-it is simple, eat less, move more and do both everyday-but most of the western world is fat???

Here are the simple wealth strategies that have made the rich folks rich…

1. Do something you love-never have job you hate-when you love it, you put more effort in so you earn more or get paid more!!

2. Put 100% into everything you do-in all areas of your life Continue reading →

Ambition is NOT a Dirty Word?

Posted on January 24, 2012 by Rowie

PT-course-time-$$

Are you investing your time and energy in helping people up or pulling them down?

AMBITION??
Ambition is often criticised as bad or evil?? Mmmmm, ambition simply means, “To want more than you have now!!” Most people do want more than they have now and some whine about not having what they want or they blame other people, their boss, their family, the government or the world for not having what they want-they are often jealous and critical of people who do have more!!

So if you want more, you have ambition or you are ambitious!!

If you go and get what you want, you have discipline, drive, commitment and a never give up attitude!!

If you do not get what you want it is because you are lazy or because you give up or because you blame other people or you are a jealous critic…
lazy
give up
blame
jealous
criticise…

Imagine if those folks put all that energy and effort into acheiveing what they want!!!!

What are you DOING that most folks say is, “Impossible?”

Posted on January 24, 2012 by Rowie

PT-PT-Course-Boxing

Be ready to achieve the impossible

Everything that has ever been achieved was once considered Impossible!!

After it was achieved, the critics degraded the achievement as a fad and, ‘It will never take on, nobody will ever want it!!”

Then it was adapted as, “Normal” and the average folks take it for granted…

While the visionaries are off doing more of, “The Impossible”

Who are YOU? The Visionary, the critic or Average??

Here is a very interesting and for some, it will be a very inspiring list of things people (even smart people) considered impossible…

“I think there is a world market for maybe five computers ..”   – Thomas Watson, chairman of IBM, 1943 …[Oddly enough it was IBM that also saw little use for what became the Xerox copy machine many decades later and refused to fund its development.  

“640K ought to be enough for anybody.”    – Bill Gates-1981

This ’telephone’ has too many shortcomings to be seriously considered as a means of communication. The device is inherently of no value to us,” – Western Union internal memo, 1876. 

“We don’t like their sound, and guitar music is on the way out,” – Decca Recording Co. rejecting the Beatles, 1962. 

“Heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible,” – Lord Kelvin, president, Royal Society, 1895. 

“If I had thought about it, I wouldn’t have done the experiment. The literature was full of examples that said you can’t do this,”  - - Spencer Silver on the work that led to the unique adhesives for 3-M “Post-It” Notepads . 

“Drill for oil? You mean drill into the ground to try and find oil? You’re crazy,” – Drillers who Edwin L. Drake tried to enlist to his project to drill for oil in 1859. 

“Airplanes are interesting toys but of no military value,”  – Marechal Ferdinand Foch, Professor of Strategy, Ecole Superieure de Guerre , France . 

“There is no reason anyone would want a computer in their home.” – Ken Olson, president, chairman and founder of Digital Equipment Corp., 1977 

MMMM, at MAX we Looooove it when people say it is impossible, it make us go harder!!

Is it really easier to be average?

Posted on January 17, 2012 by Rowie

Are you average?

If you are going to set a goal-why not make it a BIG One xx

A happy, fun, smiley hello from the lady who wants all to be happy…

 AND of course YOU are jumping highest in your world in Jumping January xx
So wouldn’t life be easier if you were just, “Average”?

So much easier sleep in than get up- but when you are fat, it is NOT EASY to get rid of it!!
So much easier to eat fast food than real food-but feeling tired and lethargic is not so yummy!
So much easier to put in half an effort at work- but being fired or broke and disrespected for being a lazy person makes paying your bills pretty tough
So much easier to join the easy crowd and lower your standards to fit in-but when you find out what average folks earn, achieve and how happy they are-it might be ugly!!

So much easier to fit in with the average folks but average means a life of, “Not Much”, “Could be better”, “ I would be happier if…
Put in the HARD now, so you can enjoy abundance, wealth, success and BEHAPPY

Doing, Just enough will NEVER make you happy!!

Lose Weight Fast and Thank High Petrol Prices??

Posted on January 15, 2012 by Rowie

LOse-weight-faster

Jump out of Bed and MOVE your Butt!

Turn on the news, any radio or TV station and/or open any newspaper and you will hear all about the doom and gloom of higher fuel prices!! WOW, how and why can this great thing be turned into such a dramatic, negative event for our country-obviously bad news sells. Imagine trying to get this headline into the newspaper or onto the front end of the next news bulletin…

High fuel prices are great for our health so let’s get excited!!

As a western society we are fatter, sicker and weaker than we have ever been and most medical experts agree this is because we eat too much and don’t move enough. Finally, because driving the car has become more expensive, people are considering dusting off their pushbikes or walking to get around-WOW!! Anything that encourages us to move more and sit less needs to be encouraged, perhaps we should even hope for even higher fuel prices!

Let’s take it one step further…Higher fuel prices will mean higher food prices. Could it be possible that if food costs more, we will finally eat less? Take note, in western countries such as Sweden, Denmark and Norway, where food is very expensive, there is much less challenge with obesity and the population does not have anywhere near the percentage of overweight people. Yes, fuel is very expensive in those countries too and if you have been to Denmark for example, there seems to be more pushbikes than cars-people have a bike and they use it!!
More benefits to higher fuel prices… Continue reading →
