Operating as usual
Avoid fatasserie!!
Heavy Metal Hideaway, progress, determination and success.
Even though testosterone is declining to below 50, I will never wake up and say, "Let's have an average day." Never!
Weights and reps are going up!
What's great about Planet Fitness is the post workout hydromassage!
Especially, recovering from cancer, there's no better way to wrap up a workout!
For my prospective clients.....I JUST ENHANCED MY MEMBERSHIP FOR YOU! Anyone who wishes to be a client of mine, can come and train as my guest! Just pay the inexpensive training fee* and 'train like a pro!'
Other area gyms TALK ABOUT getting hydromassage, but only Planet Fitness HAS IT!
Just left the gym (shoulder day) and now at Central Florida Cancer Institute for radiation.
Cancer can kiss my a*z!
Yes, we have great gifts for Christmas, stocking stuffers and Channukkah...resistance bands, gym bags, gloves, belts and of course leggings and shorts that your loved ones will love and look great in.
Just check out our Etsy site Cam Active Bodygear! Remember, over $35 in orders gets you free shipping!
Consistency in diet, training, sleep, scheduling, showering.....everything! Every day is scheduled.
If you can't handle that, then forget bodybuilding.
When I was diagnosed with cancer, I had two choices. Allow it to define me, or REDEFINE IT!
I DEFINE WHO I AM. NO ONE OR NOTHING ELSE.
Today is leg day!
Getting cranked up for leg day!!!

Our very own GHD has arrived!
Arguably, the most perfect physique in Mr. Olympia history belongs to Lee Priest. Unfortunately, in many of these contests, the 'overall winner' would more often go to the bigger guys.
But Lee's balance was unmatched.
Here's a look at his one month out leg routine. Lemme know when you want to try it. ๐คฃ
Coming soon to the Heavy Metal Hideaway, for glutes, hamstrings and abs....our very own GHD from Valor Fitness!
Made it back to Anytime Fitness this morning after a rough week. 224lbs. Down 6lbs from 3 weeks ago. Lost a lot of muscle, but the battle continues!
Everyone does it differently, but I like to be strict for the first 3 sets, then incorporate a couple 'cheating sets' as the weights get heavier.
Danny Padilla, "the Giant Killer"....one of the best, ever.
Thanksgiving ramblings....bear with me.
Back at it. I will take control and what I have control over, I will succeed at.
More to come regular workouts to resume this week!
Ok, I can't take it anymore!
My beautiful bride and I will be going to Anytime Fitness in a few minutes and I have to get busy...stitches, cancer, tidal waves, snow, locusts...whatever!
Maybe do a quick video keeping it real!
Have a blessed day ๐
Great article and interesting reading from the Harvard Medical School regarding the resumption of T treatment post prostate cancer, to slowly bring T levels back close to normal without reactivating the cancer.
In a brief exchange with FB friend, Mr. Olympia top contender and one of my personal professional bodybuilding heroes, Lee Priest...I asked his opinion on this and, at what point can I hope to get back to normal supplementation and perhaps even pursue my pro card at my somewhat advanced age. His paraphrased answer was basically, 'Dude, why risk it when you can relax and enjoy a healthy life?' I guess I'm just not ready to relax yet.
Anyway, here's the article. Happy reading.

Heavy Metal Hideaway - Prostate Cancer Progress
Everything you need to achieve your fitness goals, under one roof!
Or...."Do you know how much protein you should be eating?"
"Meals?"
I belong to these fad diet sites, just to see how people think. Then I drop the 'truth bomb question'.
"Do you know how many calories you should be eating?"
Just sitting here, enjoying my pre-Pet Scan solitude....
Sometimes here...Sometimes at the Planet Fitness in Lake Wales, but offering a professional training experience in either location. Only a few spots left!
One of the best ways to challenge yourself and make the most from your leg day is doing 'supersets'. 'What's a superset?'
A superset is an exercise set of two or more different exercises, done back to back without a rest in between. For example; chest presses and flys, or lat pulldowns and pushups, or in the example below; leg presses and lunges.
The variable missing in the leg press is balance and focusing on exercises which don't require balance is a mistake. We add balance to the equation by incorporating walking lunges for 40 to 60 feet, making sure the client goes all the way down, stressing glutes and hamstrings.
As I've said in previous posts, as a gorm of the squat, the leg placement on leg presses is critical to working different parts of the legs. The model below is 'high and wide', working the glutes and inner thighs extra hard. slightly narrower and down on the platform brings more focus to the quads...and remember, never lock your knees on this exercise.
Leg day is certainly one of my favorites, so if you'd like me to manage yours, just message me to make an appointment.
From a factory or a field? It only makes sense, what's better for us.
Finally, the Winter Haven, Lake Wales, Dundee area catches a break and doesn't have to settle. "Settle for what?" you may ask. Honestly, there are very few 'good' trainers out there.
There are plenty of trainers who pass the course, but few who:
1. Look like a trainer.
2. Have gotten continuing education in personal training.
3. Who understand nutrition, in addition to lifting weights and cardio.
4. Who respect everyone's different goals and aspirations.
5. Who can adjust their training style to #'s 4 and 6.
6. Who get that there's a difference between training a man and a woman.
7. Who can hold some kind of intellectual conversation while working out.
8. Who doesn't look like they're on work release from jail.
and finally....
9. A trainer who has used their knowledge to perform (several times) on stage as a competitive athlete.
In addition to me, I know 3 others within 15 miles who have done this, So when you select your trainer, be sure to ask around.
Starting this November 1st, I will be training people out of Planet Fitness and Anytime Fitness...both in Lake Wales, so feel free to send me a message. Training slots are limited.
Back at it after a few week layoff...๐
It's been a while that we've had a new product and there are a few coming your way! It's quite exciting actually, as we get closer to Christmas and the Holidays!!!
First, up is our new jegging! High waisted, like the other we sell, b***y shaping and with a floral design (shown below). Only $19 plus shipping. Great worn with heels or boots.
Second is a training product I call, "Train Like a Pro!" This personal training product is not for the faint hearted and perfect for those who aspire to take to the NPC or IFBB stage as soon as next year. It includes 10 full hardcore sessions, training legs, abs, chest, back, shoulders, arms and ATTITUDE! We'll discuss your nutrition and supplements as well. I'm finally able to offer this product locally in the Polk County area, which is super exciting! These sessions will be anywhere from one hour to one and a half hours in duration (up to you) and the package is only $450. Extra sessions are $50 each. Talk about a great Christmas present!!!
More products are coming your way, but don't forget our other gym related clothing, gear and nutrition plans. Go to our Camactive Body Gear site on Etsy.
10 days!!!! Just ten days and I'll be able to accommodate personal training clients in the Winter Haven, Dundee and Lake Wales area!! ๐ Why 10 days??? Because that will be two years since I've worked for my former employer who has their employees sign a "non-compete agreement"; not allowing them to use their vast knowledge within 25 miles or 2 years.
Crazy, right? Well, not really. That's what what employers do when they're scared of losing the income you've provided them for years. They think they're Microsoft, GE or something big. Nope. Sorry.
ANYWAY.....10 DAYS until you can get trained correctly!!!
Great new styles on sale now!
Reduced Halloween prices!
Just go to out CAM Active Bodygear site on Etsy!
Lee Haney, to me, right up there with Arnold...perhaps better, as he pays it forward to children and reverence to God.

This seems like the perfect forum to chronicle and keep track of the progress of my treatment of prostate cancer, hopefully showing others the approach I took to beat any odds. Typically, the success ratio of this treatment is more than 98%. Unfortunately, my cancer has metastasized bringing my ratio down to about 30%. Not where I'd like to be, but whatever.
My approach will be great support of my medical team of oncologists, urologists....nutritional support....great attitude and, of course fantastic support from my family, friends and a strong belief in God. I couldn't have a better team!
We know that it's spread to a few locations in the bone, as well as a few lymph glands....we'll know how many and where after my PET scan this week.
I've immediately started an oral chemotherapy (Erleada) and today get my first injection of Eligard. YAY!!! Seriously, the earlier, the better.
I'm taking the approach of, 'the more aggressive, the better, because I've got plans' approach.
These old guys are so motivating!

Having been in gyms for more than 30 years, you get to see what gyms should have and don't necessarily need. We learn, however, to improvise, make due, jerryrig other pieces of equipment to suit our needs and still get a great workout. One machine that we do this with is the leg extension machine, which, if used properly can double as a great unilateral leg curl. If you have gyms like 'Move', missing equipment...here's the do it yourself solution. #legday #fitness #fitnessmotivation #fitfam #gym #gymlife #gymmotivation #booty
