After 15 years of collecting dust, I broke out the old monofin this morning and took it for a spin with Aaron Franklin and Terenzo Bozzone at the pool. Forgot how much of a pain machine this thing can be! Like doing squats holding your breath and really shreads thec core muscles.

Managed to pop off a 19+ 50 at the end of practice. Not great, but not bad for an old guy! Enjoy….

Just came across this article in DESIGN FOR MEN MAG featuring our lap pool in a piece featuring rather amazing pools. Honored to be included!

Thanks MindBodyGreen and Colleen Wachob for this nice interview. Click HERE to read!

Hey guys out there in the LA / Malibu / Calabasas area – my yoga guru wife Julie, affectionately desiring to now go by the moniker “Jai Seed” will be teaching yoga for men at our home in the Malibu Canyon section of the Santa Monica Mountains.

This is a strong athletic yoga practice routine designed specifically for men & their overall wellness.

Monday evenings from 5:00pm – 7:00pm at the Jai House in Malibu Canyon.

Program includes an asana practice designed to strengthen mind & spirit, followed by a guided meditation in support of men’s wellness. This practice relieves stress, strengthens the body and integrates the mind & spirit.

Great modern music assists you through all the poses. Bring a mat, towel and water. You will sweat!

Pre-registration required – $13 per class.

OK so if you know me at all, you know how much I love my Vita-Mix blender. I often describe it as a blender with jet engine turbine, and it is quite literally the cornerstone of my entire nutrition regime.

I use it for everything — from pre/post workout smoothies to making plant-strong soups & sauces, pestos, almond cheese and even chia seed pudding, it is constantly whizzing in my house. I cannot stress enough how integral it has become in my life.

And probably because I am always espousing its virtues, I am constantly asked questions about it – Where can I get one? How do I use it? What is the best price & model? What are some recipes for it? And on and on…

So it only made sense to reach out to the nice people at Vita-Mix directly to discuss a partnership. So I am happy to announce that I am now an official Vita-Mix affiliate!

What does this mean? Basically it means I am stepping it up as a resource for how to use this magical contraption. But more importantly for you, it means look no further when it comes to finally pulling the trigger and purchasing the item that when used properly, will transform your life.

As an official affiliate, you can purchase the Vita-Mix 5200 and other official Vita-Mix products through me by clicking HERE or on the image above or the banner ad on my site, which will direct you straight through to your purchase.

Why? Because unlike any other internet distributors, online stores (or even Vita-Mix directly), by purchasing through me you will receive FREE SHIPPING in the US and Canada! Plus other credits with each sale. This is quite a savings in that this is a heavy item and shipping can be expensive.

No need to enter any codes or anything — its simple.

PETA just announced their list of “Sexiest Vegetarian Celebrities” and looks like I made the list. This is simultaneously hilarious, embarrassing & yeah, kinda cool. I admit it. First, I’m hardly a celebrity. Essentially everyone else on the list is an actor or musician. But it is neat to see my name next to people like Mos Def, Mark Ruffalo, Anthony Keidis and Jared Leto.

There are a few exceptions – fellow Stanford grad, Newark Mayor & star politico Cory Booker among them (didn’t know he was vegetarian?). But the only other athlete on the list other than me is Mac Danzig.

Anyway, if you so inclined, check out the list by clicking HERE. A vote for me is a vote promoting plant based nutrition for athletic performance!

Thanks!
