Back when I trained clients full-time, I always wondered what possessed them to get up at 5:00 a.m. and work out. Couldn’t they at least wait till 7:00 or 8:00?

“Adam” seems like a nice guy. He subscribes to Early to Rise, and, in a recent e-mail, said he is especially interested in my articles about how to get into the movie business. He said that he doesn’t have time to try to get into the movie business himself, but he has tons of ideas. So he would like to offer his ideas to me - and, if I wanted to do something with them, he would get a percentage of whatever money they brought in.

The law of forced efficiency says: “There is never enough time to do everything, but there is always enough time to do the most important thing.” The fact is that the average person today is working at 110-130 percent of capacity.

Right now, our prospective customers are experiencing some of the most intense and contradictory emotions they’ve had in their entire lives. The saner ones blame their financial problems on decisions made by the White House, Congress, the Treasury, and the Fed for the last couple of decades. Others - those with a more tenuous grip on reality - blame “those greedy bankers” for having the unmitigated gall to actually approve every loan and credit card application they ever submitted.

There are things your doctor should know about you that you might be embarrassed to share. Perhaps you’re using illicit drugs, drinking too much, not following doctor’s orders, or eating unhealthy foods.

One of my favorite workouts to do when I'm traveling is "heavy/light" supersets. Supersets combine two movements (usually for two different body parts) back to back, without rest. This gets the heart rate up and cuts down on workout time.
