Hello from Travis

Travis Steffen — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 02:21:04 +0000

After over a year of awesome work by Shauna and Lance, our fantastic WorkoutBOX bloggers, we’ve decided to take our blog in a brand new direction.

They have done a phenomenal job, and we want to thank them for everything.

Before I get into what direction we’re going to be going, I should first introduce you to the new writer…

So who is it?

Yours truly!

I must warn you – I won’t be posting the types of things that have been posted in the past. I’m going to treat this blog like I would treat an actual physical client (a service that I charge up to $500/hour for). What does this mean?

Essentially this means that I’m not going to be sugar-coating anything from here on out.

If you’re looking for some sort of shortcut to fat loss or the magic combinations of super-easy exercises to do at home that somehow get you amazing results with no effort on your part, you won’t find them here (or anywhere for that matter). Stop kidding yourself.

If you’re wanting somebody to glamor up the process of getting a truly elite body – look elsewhere. Try a fitness magazine or one of those cookie-cutter workout DVDs.

In other words, this blog is going to show you a very different side of Travis Steffen that only my private clients see. I will likely be blunt, brutally honest, and – at times – a little profane.

Why?

Because more often than not, that’s the type of thing you need. Somebody to tell you the truth – and who will actually get you where you want to be.

If that doesn’t sound like your cup of tea, don’t read! If you’re curious - right on. Keep reading.

What two sentences best summarize the future of the WorkoutBOX blog?

I’m NOT going to be telling you what you want to hear.

I’m going to be telling you what you NEED to hear.

And you WILL be better for it.

Want to go on that kind of journey? Check back in a few days for your first step.

So it’s January and as always most of us are feeling rather guilty after multiple Christmas feasts, and our general lack of fitness activity. Well rather than spending $100 an hour on a personal trainer, come and visit WorkoutBOX, where fitness is simple, effective and free! Whatever your fitness level and goals, we have the workout routines you need to achieve them.

Here’s just a few of the workouts we’ve added recently:

Muscle Toning Workout – If you’re new to the gym and don’t know where to start, check out our Muscle Toning Gym Machine Workout.
3 Day Muscle Building Workout– A multiday muscle building program that sets you up for steady muscle growth.
5 x5 Strength Training Workout – This program is for the serious trainers and incorporates a completely different structure to your normal workout. Give it a try, if you think you’re hard enough!

Coming Soon – Our range of Fat Burning Workouts

Exercise Database

To complement our workouts, we’ve also created an extensive exercise database. Each exercise contains a video and description as well as explaining exactly what muscle’s the exercise targets.

Here’s just some of the exercise’s we’ve added recently:

We’ll be adding many more workouts over the coming weeks as well as loads of other new features. So…it’s time to save your money, cancel the personal trainer and take the simple approach to fitness with WorkoutBOX.

Workout and Exercise Database – Coming Soon

SimonTurner — Sat, 13 Dec 2008 16:01:50 +0000

We’re proud to announce that here at team WorkoutBOX were getting every closer to our go live date. Behind the scenes we have spent months collecting some of the best workouts and exercises from all over the web, ready for publishing to our custom made workout and exercise database.

We will soon be adding over 50 workouts(including leg workouts, arm workouts, pec workouts) combined with over 90 exercise routines…. You name it, we have it!

Since we want to cater for all levels of fitness, we have grouped our workout routines into 3 different levels, as – let’s face it – someone who’s looking to be shown the ropes doesn’t want to end up sifting through advanced bodybuilding workouts.
