Riding With Courage

In April of 2010 I will be riding my bicycle from San Francisco, CA to Washington, DC over the course of 30 days to raise $50,000 for the Children's Miracle Network and Children's Hospitals around America.

As many of you know, I tend to go out and do a good amount of things fitness related. People are always asking me what I;m up to next and it's usually something pretty new and exciting. This time around is no different. I am so pumped up to get going on my adventure, and i can't wait until next year. But before it happens there is tons of planning to do and lot's of details to pay attention to. Check out the blog for a lot more info, and get ready for the website to be up super soon!

Alaways ready for a new adventure!!

Testimonials

 

 

"Since I was in college Josh has helped me become a better athlete in the gym and on the field. His knowledge, passion and dedication stand out and his workouts are intense and effective. He not only helped me learn about the proper ways to lift weights as a baseball player, but also, how to transfer what I was doing directly to the mound. I know his efforts have played a role in my growth through the college and pro baseball ranks.

Now, having a successful run as a Major League Baseball Player with the Washington Nationals, I am going to continue using Josh's unique, athletic based training methods to stay at the top for as long as I can.

Thanks for all your help Josh, I look forward to continuing our work!"

"Josh’s work ethic and passion is what sets him apart from other trainers I have dealt with in my 30 years in professional baseball.

 

He is a difference maker!!!!"

"Josh Courage is an exceptional trainer, not just because of his technical knowledge but because of his personality and his effectiveness as a communicator and motivator. His unique combination of skills gives him the ability to help a wide range of clients, from my son (a Division I college athlete) to myself (a 50+ desk jockey who desperately needed to overcome years of inactivity and start to get in shape).

 

Josh understands the human body and knows how to get results while avoiding undue stress or injury. He is a highly motivated athlete himself, which is inspiring to his clients. And -- he is a lot of fun to work with! I recommend him highly to anyone who wants to get fit!"

 

Mark Whitener, antitrust lawyer, Washington, DC.

 

---------------------------------------------------------

"Josh Courage is a very positive and enthusiasitc individual that is committed to helping people reach their personal fitness goals. Josh put together a strength and conditioning program for my son and educated him on the benefits of each exercise.

 

I truly believe that this helped my son increase his overall strength and his performance on the field. His selfless dedication is beyond reproach. And aside from all that, he is truly a great guy and good friend."

 

Sonny Cachuela,

(Father of a D1 baseball scholarship athlete and good friend of Josh Courage)

 

---------------------------------------------------------

"Josh Courage is never dull. You are always challenged to do things you didn't think you could do. In addition, the routines are different each time and require you to develop agility, strenth, and overall fitness. Me and my husband are addicted. Plus, we love Josh. I can't recommend Josh Courage enough. In fact, I do all the time."

Inspiration

I came across this the other day while I was web surfing through CrossFit. I read it over and over because it hit home so well. I want to print it out and give it to every client and friend I know (actually, I probably will do that...). But here you go, check it out.

 

World-Class Fitness

in 100 Words:

 

"Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports."

 

So great.

 

Never Stop, GET FIT.
