World class fitness DVDs and videos!

Working with my father in my new video series, Pilates for the Mature Gentleman ---------->

I am in the process of planning, filming, editing, producing, and releasing longer, more complex workout videos for the public to gobble up on my new web page: www.motleyfitness.com

These videos will be going in my special paid section of my site where you may pay a small fee and have access to all of these dynamic and effective workouts! I will be doing many different workouts as diverse as our population and all with only a mat underneath.

In the works for next week is an advanced Pilates workout series (3 individual workouts) that will rip and tone your entire body and make you irresistible to all those who are lucky enough to be around you! Every video will have a specific focus but will ALWAYS bring your mind, body, and spirit to the table. Without these components what is the point right? So as hard as you work, as much as you sweat, as much as you groan from exertion with some of these videos you will always feel a release of tension and an elevation of the spirit. Always! That is who I am and what I do. You can thank me for your newly much admired body later (-;

Currently putting together a series of DVDs designed for corporate wellness programs titled, The Motley Wellness Workout. These DVDs will be for any business looking to create healthier, happier, and more productive employees while also lowering the cost of their insurance perhaps. The business can purchase the program and every employee involved in the program will receive a DVD with several workouts (20-30 minutes) which are Yoga and Pilates based. They can perform them at home or together during lunchtime or right after work to build a stronger team. After a short period of time everyone will receive another DVD with progressively more difficult workouts. The workouts progress with the person. More info when the DVDs are finished but I guarantee they will be effective and give your business a huge kick in the butt!

Stay tuned for more news and keep watching www.motleyfitness.com

Ditch the two geeks you're with a get in the car with me...


Friends!

Refreshed after taking a yoga class tonight with my favorite yoga instructor Alexis at Celebration Fitness. It is so nice to experience other people's classes and have them tell me what to do for a change. Don't get me wrong...I love telling people what to do (-: Cool to see how someone else's mind works. Great class! Mr. F seal of approval.

Busy, busy, and extremely effective week! Tons of packed classes along with the filming of three new workout videos for people to use to change their lives! Tomorrow I will be filming a new video in my dynamic Pilates Ab Crunch series. These videos are just to exciting to create, film, and distribute! Blessed are we all.

Remember my friends I am offering (for now) FREE video Podcasts that you can subscribe to and watch on your television, computer, iPod, iPhone, iTouch etc...Take Mr. Fitness with you everywhere and stay in peak condition. I want to bring fitness to as many people as possible in the short time I am on this earth. It is my true calling. Join me!

Here is my Free Podcast:

Making a new Pilates mix as I write this (is that possible?) and am going in a more rock/new wave direction. The mixes must be as interesting and dynamic as the classes. Keep it interesting always and extremely effective. If not what is the frickin' point right? To do the same workout each time is worse than death. It is worse than listening to Michael Bolton sing opera. Pretty bad.

Song of the Day: Human by The Human League

Why? Love this song even though it has a terrible Elvis like monologue in the middle. The opening phrases are so pure I can barely stand it and it reminds me of roller skating and falling down every time they turned on the disco ball. It would cast shadows on the floor and I would get confused and fall. Poor Mr. F....

Let's talk Pilates...
~Pilates starts with a "P"
~Men actually benefit more from Pilates than women but are usually intimidated to try. Pity.
~I have taught over 2000 Pilates classes. Trust me...I know what I am doing.
~Pilates has been around for almost 100 years. Happy early Birthday!

Thanks to all who have let me guide you in the glorious exercise methods of Pilates, Yoga, Yoga/Pilates, Spinning, and personal training. I hope and pray that we will have many more years of mind numbing experiences!

Sleep tight.

Thursday report...


Shorter week for me since I was trekking through the mountains of Montana a few days ago. I tell ya this Florida humidity hits you in the face like a shovel when you get off the plane. Enough of that...

I have been neglecting my blog recently because of an increase in my teaching schedule, traveling, and of course my new workout videos that I am producing and designing. All good stuff but the blog is a great place to pass on fitness info, pics, songs, and all sorts of random stuff that run through my mind. As I build and expand my business I want to always be myself and not compromise. That would be sad.

Song of the Day: Two by Ryan Adams

I have heard of Mr. Adams for awhile now but have never listened to his stuff until now. I am currently making a new Pilates mix and using this song plus another called Fix It. I hope the reaction will be near ecstasy! We shall see. I am excited to once again be putting together mixes for classes as it is a very inspiring and visual process. Music is so powerful and I learn more about it's abilities to motivate and transcend each and every day. Cheers!

What do we work in Pilates?

Basically we work all the muscles of the body in a standard, well rounded Pilates class but The Core/The Powerhouse is what is at the center of every Pilates exercise. I included both names to avoid any confusion as instructors may use one more than the other. They both include: the abs, lower back, hips and glutes. All Pilates movements begin in this area. We start movement from the center and connect the limbs to the core, moving fluidly from the inside out.

Sign-ups are on the Disney Hub for all of my next eight-week session of classes on property. These include:

~Pilates at Feature Animation (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday at 5:30 pm)
~Pilates at Disney University Wednesday at 5:30 pm
~Yoga/Pilates at Feature Animation on Monday (noon)
~Yoga/Pilates at the 215 Building in Celebration on Thursday (noon)

These are for Disney Cast Members through their Cast Activities service. Classes begin the week of August 31st. Spread the word!

Gotta sleep for classes and filming tomorrow!

If you have any questions please let me know and I will see you in class!

Mr. F teaching in Northwest Montana!

Quick note...while in Montana I had the immense pleasure to "guest teach" a Pilates class at The Bigfork Athletic Club in Bigfork, Montana. Wonderful experience and I got to meet some pretty cool people who share the same love of Pilates that I do.

Thanks to Michelle for setting it up and we are planning a master class next time I am in town.

Here is the video:

Back in Orlando!


I am back from my Montana adventure and so excited about all the Pilates, Yoga, and Yoga/Pilates classes coming up!

Let's do it!

I promise nothing but the most effective workouts my feeble mind can communicate.

See you in class!

Canadian Adventure!


While in Montana we had the pleasure of driving 45 hours to Kimberley, B.C., Canada, Nebraska to visit. Good times as this video will prove.

Heading back to central Florida tomorrow to resume my takeover of the fitness world.

Looking forward to seeing every one (-:

Montana Video: Day One


Let's have some spontaneous fun in the mountains of northwest Montana!

Location: Jewel Basin and Bigfork, MT.

Canada tomorrow!

Mr. F

Mr. F is heading to Montana today!

Yes indeed I will be packing Jilly into my suitcase (she is flexible) and heading to the mountains of northwest Montana for a week of wonder and buffalo burgers.

See you all next week. This video expresses what I am feeling at this moment. Actually it doesn't...




PS Great shorter week of classes! Power Yoga at Golds last night was intoxicating. I added an extended standing flow sequence with Warriors, Triangles, balance poses and even flirted with adding the very advanced Half-Moon poses but time got the best of me. Crap! Time goes so damn fast in that class and we must allow time for the meditation at the end. The meditation is the dessert. The cheesecake. The Simpsons. You get the idea.

See you soon!

Disney with Jill and the week ahead both have made my face explode!

Short week of classes here in sunny, rainy, and hot central Florida as I am heading to the mountains of northwest Montana on Wednesday and spending a whole week there! Yes! Maybe Jill will come with too (-:

So I still have about 7 classes before then and I shall give my all before all the hiking, buffalo burgers, canoeing, posing, laughing, walking, and crouching.



This video is how I like to enjoy Disney...sometimes...

Podcasts, Pilates Thunder, and The Cult oh my...


Such a week and it is only half over! Let's start this off with a quote to get the hairs to raise on the back of your neck:

"Range is for the ego, and control is for the soul"
~Anon

Did it work? I am in the business of controlled exercise. No sloppy, jerky, not thought out movements in my classes. We learn to use our bodies as they are meant to be used and as a result we experience rewards and benefits far greater than we could ever imagine. If you are going to do something...do it right...do it brilliantly! If not what's the point?

I have already had the pleasure of teaching over 10 classes this week and working with hundreds of people hungry for more in their lives. They are searching. We are ALL searching. When you come to Yoga and Pilates for instance you are on the right path. You may be on a path that will inspire, change (for the better), and elevate your life to heights you never imagined. This is the business in which I find myself. Part of the solution. Part of something that improves your life on three levels: mind, body, and spirit.

Disney classes have been cruising along and growing and growing. It keeps my on my toes and inspires me to learn as much as I can so I may offer only the BEST classes. Last night at my Power Yoga class at Golds Dr. Phillips I threw in some Half-Moon and Reverse Half-Moon pose which are very challenging poses. Sure there were lots of groans and wobbling but everyone did the best they could and are primed to only improve from class to class. Only improve. Wall-to-wall people posing for themselves and then going home and having the best nights sleep of the week. It's all good!

I am pleased to announce that Mr. Fitness LLC is now doing Podcasts though iTunes!! Such glorious excitement that I am able to open up my business like this and reach so many more people who need help.


Just click subscribe and you are off on a fitness journey that will never end. It is also FREE.

Song of the Day: Turn Me Loose by Loverboy

I'm telling you don't turn me loose or nothing will survive! It will be a hurricane of Corkscrews, Hundreds, and Warrior 3's. You don't want all that coming down on you!

Pilates Thunder #3 is on the shelves! Check it out here!


Here is my latest Pilates video entitled Pilates Thunder #3. Practice this video until you feel stronger and then start combining it with the other workout videos in this series.

I now have several workout videos on the market with many more being planned. If you have any questions please let me know. Find the link to all my videos on my web page : www.Mr-Fitness.org

Full week of classes this week beginning at Disney tomorrow and then taking me all over central Florida. Such fun! Numbers are great and I get to work with hundreds of people every week and help them improve their lives. It is always an extremely positive experience and I thank you all for sharing your time with me.

Song of the Day: Cradle will Rock by Van Halen

I taught an hour of Spinning today at the Lance Armstrong Foundation Charity Ride at Celebration Fitness and this was one of my hills. I did three hill songs in a row and this was sandwiched in the middle. Tough stuff and David Lee Roth's shrieking vocal flips are always enjoyable. Great song. Great group.

Must prepare for my Lunchtime Yoga/Pilates class at Disney's Feature Animation now. We have been having packed houses and they demand a workout with plenty of relaxation...not the easiest combo but all in a days work for Mr. Fitness (-:

See you soon!
