Walk on!

The Walk On story...

The years between the Green Hornet and the Hong Kong films were often difficult for Bruce Lee. In Hollywood he wasn`t getting offered the roles he felt he deserved, he struggled to support his family, and he injured his back very seriously and was told that he would never be able  to participate in martial arts again. He turned to many self-help books during this time for inspiration. 

One day he took hold of one of his own business cards and wrote the phrase "Walk on" on the back. He bought a special stand for this card and kept it on his desk as a constant reminder to keep moving forward. With this as his mantra, Bruce Lee worked himself into the best shape of his life, wrote volumes of notes on many different subjects and ideas, and further developed and named his art  of Jeet Kune Do. The rest is history...

When life gives you obstacles, you must summon the courage and... Walk on!

Time

I watched the movie The Theory of everything last week and I think there is 
no better time to write about "time". 

Time. Without a doubt is our most precious commodity.
There never seems to be enough hours in the day for most of us making 
a headway in this life. I would like, in this blog try to make you focus on 
spending your time gift much more wisely.I want to mull over the choices 
you have made in your life.
What direction have you taken?
Are you happy?
If not – how can I be happy?
Do you look for opportunities?
Or do you spend your day’s caught up in crap that does not really matter?
The thing here is, you have to take action now.
If it’s a new life you are wanting – there is only YOU that can make that 
happen, get that – only you.
Action needs to be taken.
Read that again. Action needs to be taken.
Look, we all think – next week – next year – I will start doing that then, 
you say to yourself. The time is now-start now – find your thing and be it-live 
it and spend the time you have on living.

I remember the Brandon Lee movie the Crow in the interview section of the 
DVD Brandon quoted this passage below from the 1949 novel The Sheltering 
Sky by Paul Bowles.

"Because we do not know when we will die, we get to think of life as an 
inexhaustible well,
and yet everything happens only a certain number of times .
How many more times will you remember
a certain afternoon of your 
childhood
that is so deeply a part of your being
you can't even conceive of 
your life without it?Perhaps four or five times more?
Perhaps not even that.

How many more times will you watch the full moon rise?
Perhaps, twenty. 
And yet it all seems limitless."I have never forgot this quote, spoken so well 
by Brandon. As most of us may or may not know - died making that movie, 
in tragic unexplained events.There has been many times since reading this 
quote that I have stopped and looked at things in a completely different light. 
The written word can – if you open up to it, have so much influence on your 
decisions and paths you take.You have one shot here on this earth look for 
those things that slap you in the face and move towards them if your heart 
tells you it’s the right thing to do.

I do what I love to do and it really embarrasses me when people waste time 
and life on not being in the place they want to be in life.
Look, you can make changes.The time is now.
If there is something you want to do in this world – do it.
Don’t give me shit –you have baggage – money issues – kids – on and on.
Billions of people do.
This is about you, if you want to live life your way, do it and do it now.
One life. Only you do it.

Masseur for sport and regenerative massages

Haven`t post anything in a while. I`ve been very busy with life in general, working hard and studying. In past 8 weeks I also succesfully finished my masseur course and from now on I do private massages especially for my clients.

Life has been up&down, but one thing I have in mind - doesn`t matter what is going on around - I still keep training and eating good clean food. I am lucky to have my dream job and to do what I love the most. Love working with people.

Last week started with my contest prep for this year. Its gonna be long 26 weeks and it might be my last year onstage so I am going to be at my best, as always. I am @ 89kg at the moment, will post some picture on instagram later on.

Be the best you can be.

"Stand for something or Fall for Anything."

I LOVE MY LIFE. THANK YOU ALL MY CLIENTS FOR BEING A PART OF MY LIFE, YOU ARE AWESOME.
When you are down, I feel down. When you e-mail me about your struggles, it pushes me and inspires me to make my blogs and e-mails100 x better. The training with my clients is BEYOND sports. It's beyond big chest and biceps. It's MORE than a Big Deadlift, etc. We're training for Life. We're training for days like this..... when the cards are stacked against you and people try to break you down.
When "Life Happens" as I like to call it. This is the real world, it happens, unfortunately or perhaps, it IS fortunate.
These obstacles are to be turned into opportunity. The HARD training and the showing up when you just wanna sit on the couch and go home.....
The HARD training we go through when you are exhausted but you know skipping that workout will make you lose sleep so you Rise Above and DO it. Those moments are SPECIAL.....
They help you rise above in Life.
I want to say I am GRATEFUL BEYOND WORDS for ALL of you...
Sometimes, we need to lose a little and hurt a little to know just how great we have it.
Thanks for standing together, as one!

Coach Martin

S cvičením jsem začala asi před 10 měsíci. Nebyla jsem tehdy v příliš dobré fyzické kondici a do cvičení se mi moc nechtělo. Měla jsem o 17 kg více než nyní...

Random thoughts

Just some random thoughts running through my mind lately...

People are "facebook out"

They spend so much time on facebook seeing what everyone else is doing, commenting on stupid sh...t
They prefer to pay attention to things that last as fast as you can swipe a finger accros their phone.

People keep telling me "I``m busy"

This goes back to being facebook out. They spend countless hours everyday on facebook  that they actually think they are working. Being busy and working are two different things.
People who have told me about money problems I see are the same people who are always on facebook, day and night.

Hard work is fu...ing awesome

Hard work is one of the best feelings on earth. There are many people who are into that concept  and unfortunately, probably more people who are not into working hard to achieve whatever it is they want.

Marketers ruin everything - perhaps we as  marketers ruined the hard work thing because the most popular / best selling fitness programs tend to promote short cuts around the work.

I wonder...Are people overwhelmed with information? Or, they are caught up watching  entertainment that keeps them stuck in place in life  instead of moving onward and upward.

Entertain vs Educate?

Who are the most underpaid people and who are the most over paid people?
The argument, is often teachers and actors.
What do people want? Most want to be entertained. They want to watch passively instead of doing  the work, getting their hands dirty and clawing their way up the mountain. I want to change that attitude but perhaps I should  let it be. Perhaps this is the "human food chain".

The real power in your life comes when you do the work.
My own gut instincts drive me to inspire people to get out there and kick ass, in the gym and in life.
I push people to do the work. I cant act to be anything else. I love intensity and love seeing what becomes of others when they get intense with their own work.

I am learning the best thing to do is to simply be me. Those who want hop on board will,  those who do not, will not. "You`re either in, or you`re in the way".




It means they spend so much time on facebook seeing what everyone else is doing, commenting on stupid shyt, that they don’t know how to learn like they used to from other blogs.
They prefer to pay attention to things that last as fast as you can swipe a finger across their phone.
