Yes, I know it’s the most clichéd end of the year post… “Stuff I learned in the past year.”  But actually, I like this topic. I think it’s valuable to take time for reflection and recapitulation. I enjoy “lessons learned” posts from other people as well when they’re written by experts I respect.  I always pick up some insights that benefit me when I read them.  I haven’t written a post like this in a long time, so I suppose I could say this is stuff I’ve learned in the last 5 years, but it all came to mind now in December of 2011 in this one big brain dump. Hope you find it helpful – and in parts, entertaining…

Could you develop a more visually stunning body with decades-old classic physique training than any “shiny new” workout you’ve been pitched online or on TV today in 2011? Since the internet boom around Y2K, you’ve probably gotten  hundreds of emails trying to convince you that a “new breakthrough” in training has “revolutionized” body transformation. BULL PUCKY!
