If you’ve been watching the news you may have seen that the Legends of Tennis are in Australia at the moment, not least of which, John McEnroe. And his famous saying “YOU CAN’T BE SERIOUS!” is the theme for today’s blog.

You see, If you know me, you’ll know I’m normally a pretty positive guy. But I’m a little fed up with people telling me they can’t do Pushups for Charity because they couldn’t possibly do enough Pushups! Bollocks! I had one girl tell me last night she’ll be purposely on the other side of town when it’s on, nice.

Firstly, the word is “can’t” is a swear word in my language so remove it from your vocabulary right now!

Secondly, Pushups for Charity is not about doing Pushups! It’s not.

Now I can understand this reaction because who do we think of most? Ourselves. We all do it, I know I do despite my best efforts to genuinely see other people’s point of view.

But a big part of Pushups for Charity is to give you the chance to add value not only to own life but to others as well, because giving is the greatest joy in life.

Our motto is “Get Fit, Have Fun, Make a Difference”

Let’s start with “Get Fit”.

When you register as a participant or sponsor for Pushups for Charity you’ll receive a 12 Week Fat Elimination and Body Transformation  System absolutely FREE ($147 Value). In this online home study course you’ll learn everything you need to know to get the body you want and maintain it for life. In fact, I’ll give you a sneak peak at what you get the bottom of this blog.

Even if you have no need or desire for this, you can pay it forward by giving it to someone who does.

Next up, “Have Fun”.

The day itself will be fun, I guarantee it! We expect a crowd of around 50-75 people to rock up. Watching all those people pump out pushups with everyone cheering them will be a blast. We’ll have prizes, giveaways and even bar tenders mixing up pre-workout drinks and protein shakes.

And lastly, “Make a Difference”. The most important part of “Pushups” is that we’re raising money for Make a Wish Australia who support children with life threatening diseases, but we need your help to do that.

If you get our monthly postcard newsletter the “Little Nudge”, you’ll know we try to make things more fun by including a funny health and fitness cartoon. My longest serving client, Jenny McKendry (3 years of PT, well done Jen!) sent this through to me and I thought I’d share it with you.

Hi guys,

Hope you had a fun weekend and have lots of exercise planned for the week.

Now my favourite type of exercise by far is to run. There is something about straping on the IPOD and hitting the pavement in the sun that I love.

This year I decided to compete in my first marathon on the Gold Coast which was a great experience. The longest I had ever run previous to that was 14km and I believed that was my limit. As tough as the training and event itself was, I’m looking forward to having another crack next year. I also ran the City to Surf in Sydney for the third time, one of the best things I’ve ever done,  and shaved 4 minutes off my best time.

I’m not telling you this to impress you, rather to impress upon you what you can achieve once you get into the right mindset.

Anyway, I just jumped on You Tube and found this funny video of competitors struggling to finish a  marathon.

It cracked me up and I thought you might like it too.

Hello Boys and Girls!

As you may or may not know I have 2 beloved pets called Obi and Yoda, or as I like to call them the “Star Wars Cats”. They are full of personality and turn people who don’t like cats into cat lovers.

Like me, they love to keep fit and this is how they do it

ps. One of my clients Kate Dows sent me these photos which I found hilarious and I thought you might like too.
