EDGE*NRG???

On this first post I thought I would introduce myself and the EDGE*NRG evolution. Hopefully it will be of some interest to you guys before going into more pertinent and useful topics relating to YOU!!!

24 years ago as I left behind a career with the Power Company and pondered the next phase of my life, I knew I wanted a passion, not just another job. There were many things I loved ... music, travel, anything outdoors....football! However, there was one passion that I actually developed years before, that gave me a daily advantage on what was a very physical and mental job in power line construction and that passion was FITNESS TRAINING!

I realized that time spent weight lifting, cycling, swimming, running, practicing calisthenic drills or martial arts.... was when I felt the best and what actually made EVERYTHING else I pursued better. With a tendency to "push the limits" in whatever I started, my training is what helped me keep my physical and mental edge; It would help restore balance.

I also enjoyed sharing the things I loved with like minded people, anyone interested in living their best life in the most positive way!

Thinking that fitness and training would at least be a great part time endeavor ....and with the full support of my loving wife and two part time gigs ... trainer at Bally Total Fitness & Tech support for Panasonic ... I went about gaining more knowledge regarding the body and how we move.

Taking courses in Anatomy, Physiology, Kinesiology, Psychology & human behavior ... I couldn't get enough.... I loved it and soaked it up like a sponge! Remember... I tend to push the limits on anything I start.

I soon became certified as a Personal Trainer and Functional Specialist with the American Councel on Exercise, then was offered a job, training others at our local hospital's Wellness Center.

The 12 years at the Hospital including 3 years working in the Physical Therapy department, offered priceless learning opportunities and experience.

2009, EDGE Personal Fitness was started, offering Fitness, Functional and Rehabilitative training in an intimate studio setting.

After 3 years the need to take my training to another level presented itself and I began mobile training, offering clients private ... No hype or gimmicks, Results driven workouts and always with a Go2, positive attitude.......NRG training!

EDGE*NRG is a 24 year culmination of knowledge and experience in the fitness and health care field. I have worked with a wide range of clients; from physician to construction worker, CEO to janitor and stay at home moms/dads to collegiate athletes. I am truly blessed to have had those opportunities and experiences and passionate about sharing with others!

As is my nature..... I plan to continue taking this passion to higher levels and hope you enjoy taking the journey with me!!! Stay well!

Hi, just did Mobility and wow I feel amazing! Didnt realize how tight hamstrings and hips were until I finished and i felt much better walking around. I Really like the variety and it definitely wakes up some sleepy muscles , surprise! lol Thanks for putting it together! Carley

  Hi Brian, did our workout this morning they are awesome! Its hitting everything I wanted to work on and the movements are very real movements we do throughout the day at work. =) ok I have to go collapse now. lol

I wanted to give you some feedback since we've been working this week. I feel much more stable doing work overhead - on a ladder reaching up pulling wire through joists. Working overhead which we did all day, close to the ceiling makes us hunch over or to the side in weird ways but again I felt more stable and controlled and recovery from awkward working positions is much much better, no pain or stiffness which is a huge benefit since that working situation happens a lot. Focusing on the various squats in the routine I have realized that ALL DAY long we squat down, split squat even cossack squats when I reached for something. lol The split squats are very practical for our job. standing Thoracic extension is fantastic! And its the first time working out that i'm not extremely sore in a single area.....it just hurts evenly... all over! Every once in a while we ask ourselves " Brian why?WHYYY?" lol So far so good the routine is awesome and helping a lot.

I am the brunette (many years ago).

 

 

Joe snapped this picture. I had a great personal trainer in Virginia—yep—that’s you Brian Cunningham if you are reading this. The other girl was a friend. We were in the Bahamas for a destination wedding. This is a toga party at the resort

 So I have some more feedback thoughts, (Carley again) Feeling stable at work moving around awkward/heavy objects and tools (table saw) so that's awesome! I'm much more aware of proper lifting posture now. I thought all along i've been lifting properly with my legs but realized I havent since you showed me proper squat form. I never knew my posture was so off but since the workouts i've been practicing and it helps a lot. Also jonathan said to mention trimming down in the hard to loose places like the upper thigh, back of hips which is also awesome.

I wanted to give you a progress report. I've lost between 4 and 5 lb. I can see a significant difference and muscle tone and posture. And most importantly I FEEL great!! I'm able to work without pain and doing things with ease that used to be difficult 4 weeks ago. Thanks so much for you we'll thought out routine 😊

Hey Bro! Just came back from an overnight backpacking trip. One we had been on before, about 10 miles round trip. The difference in both our muscle strength and cardiovascular endurance is remarkable! Just last year we were DONE at the end of the hike and the longer uphill's winded me. This time I felt like I could have walked it all again, and the uphill's increased my breathing rate but I could still talk. THANK YOU!!!
