The Movie Star Workout
The Movie Star, er, ummm… Super Hero Workout.
How To Get Into Super Shape.
Everybody loves a good movie. Most people love a good super hero movie. Nonetheless, few people know what it actually takes for an actor to build the type of body necessary to insure the success of a box-office, blockbuster motion picture. Sure, I don’t think there’s a person on the planet who thinks it’s all cake and gravy. However, you are foolish to think it’s not several months of hard, intensive labor, focus and devotion to science & the discipleship of proven methods and methodologies… Along with a whole host of other crucial components for achieving that Movie Star, er, umm… Super Hero body.
Without further delay…
Here we go… A superstar actor calls me up and says he has 12 weeks to transform his body for a major movie role as the lead in the latest, big-budget, live-action super hero feature film. What do I do, how do I ensure he achieves this goal?
First & foremost, I determine that this actor has already or is able to develop the discipline to do what is necessary to not only conquer the muscle building aspect of body transformation, but even much more important, he possesses the ability to conquer the exceedingly more vital dietary discipline. Which means his mind is in the right place at the right time. He must be in better than decent physical condition and also be able to ambulate (move) plausibly well. He must also be fairly athletic.

Mindset is and always will be #1 in the achievement of any goal (body transformation is no exception) and in my business, one must always first… Change the mind to change the body. Diet is a very close second.
Hollywood has a current criterion for what their super heroes look like; they must be big, but no longer too big. They must be ripped, but Ashton Kutchers’ lean, fit body doesn’t quite cut the mustard. They must be what the focus groups have determined will be the most significant reason to shell out $10 bucks or more for a movie ticket. So, he is both everyman’s ideal and every woman’s idea of hot. Keep in mind Hollywood demands a huge, shapely upper body, while strategic camera wizardry will always minimize the necessity of massive, sometimes awkward tree-trunk legs. This type of training is like walking the razors edge. The demand is high, but the supply is nigh.
Ok, now
Metabolic Resistance Training – The New School Of Old School
By Kurt Lee Hurley
Building a better, more
efficient body involves more than just lifting weights. A basic understanding
of human kinetics and movement, of how muscles work sure helps.
So, exactly
how do muscles work?
Muscles
are developed by causing or making them work and they can only work when the
body is in motion. Muscles work even more efficiently when we are in full
motion. Therefore, to develop the muscles to their maximum potential, we must
make them work to the best of their abilities.
In
order to fully develop your muscles, you have to move, and move, and move, and
move. The only thing that will actually grow in points of inertia, if you
remain immobile, is your weight. If you want muscle growth, strength and power,
you must work your body methodically. Muscle training by today’s definition is
called working out. My chosen method or the method of the day is called
Metabolic Resistance Training.
Muscles
can be toned
What Is The Definition Of Insanity?
"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."
-Albert Einstein
Something To Think About...
I am a big subscriber to the idea that we are either moving forward or backward, never standing still. We are either progressing or regressing, never static. If you share this idea, we will all get along famously.
Today's post is merely a nugget of this idea, please read, contemplate and enjoy.
Kekichs Credo #30

"Power comes from stripping away appearances and seeing things as they really are. Socialism appeals to psychological and intellectual weaklings. Identify and replace all external authorities with internal strength and competence. Take full control of, and responsibility for, your conscious mind and every aspect of your life. Being incompetent or dependent in any part of your life or business opens you up to sloppiness, manipulation and irrationality."
In Passion, Purpose And Prosperity.

How To Rapidly Incinerate Stubborn And Unsightly Body Fat And Lose Weight Forever

foundation with the bricks others have thrown at him.” -David Brinkley |
The other day as I was wrapping up my day and getting ready to
head out the door, I had a walk-in ask if she could borrow a few minutes of my
time. Now, although I am a fitness business owner, my time is meticulously
calculated days in advance and I pride myself on being on time, especially when
it comes to spending time with my kids. But since I was a few minutes ahead of
schedule, I smiled and politely told her I would actually give it to her for
free. No, not training or consulting, silly… Some time. Sheesh, what do you take
me for, huh?
Anyway, she immediately kicked into telling me she had done hcg,
that it didn’t work, invested into a “substitute a cheeseburger for a protein
shake because they have the same points” program, it didn’t work and also was
walking 45 minutes a day and that didn’t work either. Hmmm…??? I’m mystified,
these crappy, one-size-fits-all programs don’t work??? Really, now…
How To Set And Realize Your Goals – Part I
Who Are You And What Is Your
Creed?
Hello, my friend…
Today’s post isn’t
going to be lengthy, nor is it something to just gloss over. If you put the
following exercise into action, you will find goal attainment of any sort is no
longer a mystery, it will no longer be something you just read about. If put to
the test, your goals will be something that you have conquered and your life
will truly be of your own design, on your own terms.
Ok?
Awesome, here you go…
Take an hour and
disappear. Turn off your phone, tablet, laptop and any other encumbrance. Find
a quiet place to go within and openly think. Relax your mind and body, quiet
your inner self and ask yourself these questions:
Who Is Kurt Lee Hurley
Hey… What’s up? It’s
Kurt here and because I am still getting quite a few emails and phone calls
from people all over the place asking the same two questions; “Who are you? And
where did you come from? As if I have just recently broken into the fitness and
business coaching industries. So, I thought I would do my best and try to
answer those two questions as clearly and concisely as I possibly can.
The first thing I always say is, “Google me.” I don’t mean
to sound arrogant and I am sincere when I say it, but come on… We Google
everything, why when it comes to doing research on hiring a personal trainer,
bootcamp instructor, business coach or even verifying credibility, do we not
use Google? By the way, “Kurt Lee Hurley” has more than 20,000,000 Google entries,
yes…I did just write 20,000,000. So what perhaps does that mean? Hmmm…? I’ll let you decide.
Let me say this… There are a lot of unqualified “experts”
teaching your kids, your wife and your employees a whole lot of nothing. Believe
me, it’s sad but true.
Do This, Don’t Do That… What To Eat And Not To Eat To Build Your Sizzling, Super-Sexy Slim, Swimsuit Body
"Things
do not change. We change." - Henry David Thoreau
I still get a big ol’ giggle when I consult with a female prospect
(of any age) and they exclaim with firm conviction that they are afraid to lift
weights because they don’t wanna get “big”. As if this de-conditioned female
literally had the kind of shear strength and power to lift hard enough and
heavy enough to cause such disrepair that her muscles would actually
hypertrophy (grow) and subsequently manifest a bigger, more muscular physique.
Please, let’s put this archaic, misgiving to rest. Ladies, you cannot do such a
thing no matter how fast & furious you manhandle those 8 pound dumbbells,
it just isn’t gonna happen. Not to mention the intricate dietary discipline and
the construction and consumption of the sort of diet that would have to be
employed to get “big” typically would never happen either, so relax.
However, in order to build the kind of beautiful body most women
wish to possess, you must work similarly to and employ very similar training
techniques that those who are “big” have used in pursuit of their goal. What
makes all the difference in the world is how you eat to support the goal. Eat
big, get big. Got it?
Why Provo’s Personal Trainer And Premiere Bootcamp Instructor Is Singing Provo’s Praises
Okay, so living here in Utah County, we are all aware
of the (dare I say) frugal community in which we reside. However, being in the
service industry I have seen something that others perhaps might not.
There is good, kind, generous people everywhere and
Utah County is no different. Religion, or spiritual pursuit’s aside, the bottom
line is this place is chock full of fantastic people.
Provo Bootcamp Fitness Training
Ya' know, I'm gonna be totally straight up with you here because probably like you, I hate being sold things. I love buying things that I value, but I hate being "sold." However, I am not here to sell you anything. Sure, I'm a business dude and I like doing business. But mostly I like it because my business places me into the position to help people, to truly help people and that is what I love doing. Besides, I think Zig Ziglar said it best… "You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help other people get what they want." Well, that is my goal here with this program. To help as many people as I possibly can get what they want. With a fitness bootcamp we all win. You get in the best shape of your life and I get to have a hand in that process. With that being said, allow me to give you a few tangible reasons why you too should do one of my fitness bootcamps.
