The 5 Levels of FLO



5 Levels of FLO
The purpose of this article is to introduce everyone to the 5 Levels of FLO. This is a system that we have developed to train our Athlete’s both physically and mentally. Obviously we have not placed our exercise library on here due to the fact that it would be entirely too long.  So instead we placed our level system for the Athletes below.  
            For each new level the Athlete gets a new exercise library to chose from, a new color band and a book to read (this is the mental part of training). The goal is for the Athlete to reach the highest level of training as you would a black belt in martial arts.  The exercises progressively get harder and more intense with each new level.  
So where is there room for the Fun training at FLO?
            Many clients come to FLO because the amount of fun they have during each session. We still include our wacky FLObata’s and 5 min of Fun into our training sessions. Our goal was to find a way to be efficient and fun at the same time. We believe we have done just that.  So here is the brief description of the levels:

Level 1:  DEVELOP
            You are dedicated to working on correcting muscular imbalances, developing basic lifting skills, and setting personal goals. In this phase you will develop a solid foundation that sets the tone for the rest of your training.

Level 2: IMPROVE
            Your focus is on Improving all the moves you have Developed from level one. You will also look to Improve in all areas of life (school, relationships, sports,etc).  As you Improve physically be aware of the mental changes that occur as well. This thirst for improvement should stay with you throughout your training. Prepare to Compete.


Level 3: COMPETE
            You have Developed the tools, Improved your skills and are now ready to COMPETE. Your mindset will be that of a Competitor. The workouts and exercises will get harder at this level so you will be Competing against yourself.  You should view all life challenges as Competition that you will overcome. Prepare to Excel.

Level 4: EXCEL
                                 By this point you have Developed the ability to Improve and Compete. It is now time to Excel. Being ordinary is no longer an option for you, you want to be Extraordinary! At this stage you will Excel at all exercises and aspects of training. You are one step closer to Conquering all Challenges!
Level 5: CONQUER

                                 At this point of training you have Developed skills, Improved on those skills, Competed using those skills, Excelled with those skills and you are now ready to Conquer. Nothing can stand in your way now.  Once you are done with this level of training, you will have the confidence, self discipline, and mental focus to Conquer any challenge in your way and Finish Strong! It is now your duty to be a Leader and help others get through the levels. We never achieve anything alone.

Taking the NEXT STEP

Taking the NEXT STEP!! Im sure we have all reached a  point in our lives where we know its time to take that next step, next level, begin the next chapter in our life. It is by far  one of the scariest times for all of us. The point where we realize everything we have ever done has led us to THIS! This is our moment to shine and like Eminem says, " You only get one shot, do not miss your chance blow. Opportunity comes once in a life.".  The one scary thing is, you know after THIS moment, nothing will ever be the same.  Once you cross THIS line, you can not go back.  THIS is it and the pressure is on. They say, "Pressure bust pipes, but It can also make diamonds.", only you can decide what it does to you.  We all get to THIS moment, but few rise to the occasion. Few feel the fear and keep walking forward.  You can either step into greatness or step back into comfort.  Many will choose to step down and let THIS moment pass them by. Once they do that, the rest of t

Positive Attracts Positive

Ever hang around some negative people or in a negative environment? How did you feel during and after you had left? Did you feel drained of energy and just not happy about the situation you were currently in? Guess what.. your attitude, drive and passion effects others around you. If you create that positive energy and always surround yourself with positive, upbeat, driven people, you can only find more success in life. Being surrounded by my Flo Family along with everyone else such as Patrick Lerouge (www.revivetm.com) or Paul Newell (www.balancedwellness.org), I started to see my true potential and what I am truly capable of. They bring out the best in me because of their positive energy. They believe I can do it and push me to my limits. Even when I feel so uncomfortable with doing something, such as speaking in front of a group... they pushed me knowing that I could do it. I would have never seen myself get this far into my career without the Flo Family. I have learned so much, m

Are you brave enough for a COLD SHOWER?

Why I Take Cold Showers And You Should Too For the past three years I’ve taken a cold shower almost every single day. You might think I’m crazy and at first; trust me, at first I thought I was too. But hold your judgment, hear me out, give it a try and then you can thank me. What are the benefits of cold showers? 1.     Improve Mood A 2007 study looked at how cold showers affected people with depression. Here is what the authors of the study hypothesized: “Exposure to cold is known to activate the sympathetic nervous system and increase the blood level of beta-endorphin and noradrenaline and to increase synaptic release of noradrenaline in the brain as well. Additionally, due to the high density of cold receptors in the skin, a cold shower is expected to send an overwhelming amount of electrical impulses from peripheral nerve endings to the brain, which could result in an anti-depressive effect.” The study ended up finding that cold showers of 2-3 minutes helpe
