Warrior IV Life Fitness

 Greetings!

Welcome to our Warrior IV Life Fitness Website!

You might be thinking:  “Well, what exactly is it, this Warrior IV Life Fitness?”

“Yes, What Exactly Is It?”

Great question!  Bottom line up front:  Warrior IV Life Fitness (with the Roman Numeral, “IV,” pronounced “4”) is a refreshingly unique, completely holistic, absolutely fantastic fitness-health-wellness program!  Also routinely referred to by its acronym, “WIVLF” (pronounced “WĭVLiFe” – so as to rhyme with “WĭVLiFe – Lĭve Life!”), Warrior IV Life Fitness (WIVLF) is great for both men and women, the young and the old, individuals and teams / groups, the already “fit” and the “not so fit.”  Distinctive in concept and delivery, WIVLF integrates a wide array of time-tested, historically proven fitness-health-wellness disciplines and traditions into a seamless tapestry or mosaic of truly holistic fitness – modifiable or tailorable to your own personal goals and objectives!

What else makes WIVLF so appealing, sustainable, and effective?  Well, for starters, it does not require any specialized facilities or expensive equipment (for, as we like to say, “The world is your gym!”); and, furthermore,   WIVLF is not competitive – at least not in terms of comparing oneself to others.  Yet, at the same time, WIVLF promises to push you to “Be All That You Can Be!” (i.e., borrowing a durable U.S. Army recruiting slogan of yesteryear).

“Just how do we go about this?” you might ask.

 Together!  Yes, taking into full account your individual and/or collective fitness-health-wellness goals and objectives, we will work closely with you (and/or your comrades or team) in custom-crafting or co-creating a specially tailored and sequenced Fitness Training Blend (FTB) which is just right for you – a FTB taken or drawn from a wellspring which we believe encompasses virtually every major facet of well-rounded and comprehensive, safe, fun, superbly effective, and joyfully sustainable physical fitness training, namely our Warrior IV Life Fitness (WIVLF) – 7 Modular Sub-Disciplines (MS-Ds):

 i. Stretching-Flexibility (SF) Work;

ii. Aerobic-Cardiorespiratory (ACR) Work;

iii. Strength (STR) Work;

iv. Quickness-Agility-Coordination (QAC) – AKA Balance-Agility-Coordination (BAC) Work;

v. Available Accessories-Equipment (A2E) Work (“The world is your gym!”);

vi. Martial Arts (MA) Work (i.e., non-contact drills, forms, and routines); and

vii. Particular Skills of Interest (PSOI) Work (i.e., previously arranged functional fitness activities and/or specified sports training).

WIVLF!  A refreshingly unique and adaptive “holistic fitness fusion” – a wonderful “fusion” – with no boredom or confusion!

“How Can It Benefit You?”

WIVLF can be utilized as either a fully complete, stand-alone physical fitness program or, in the alternative, you can use WIVLF to round out or top off your existing physical fitness or sports regimen.  In either case, we are fully confident that just one or two WIVLF training sessions each week for the next three months can help you reap an abundantly rich harvest of sustainable fitness, health, and wellness – “IV Life.”

WIVLF is further distinctive in this respect:  Training sessions will routinely feature short “lessons IV Life” (e.g., gleaned from Holy Scripture, the annals of history, and/or from “the school of life” in general).  Oh, don’t worry!  There will be no irksome “preaching” at you in WIVLF!  Rather, all this is done is a light-hearted, fun, and inspiring manner, in a manner intended to uplift the heart, hone the mind, and refresh the spirit – while the physical exercises which serve as the primary focus of each WIVLF training session will help forge the body to its very peak of physical fitness performance and athletic potential.  WIVLF!!!  It takes “fitness” beyond the playing fields and gymnasium as “an approach IV Life!”  Cross-training boosted to a completely new level – all in one-hour training sessions!  True holistic fitness is far more than just physical!

“A Requisite Personal Introduction”

I am a former Soldier (“once a Soldier, always a Soldier”), retiring from active duty with the U.S. Army in 2011, after more than 23 years of service.  My primary job in the Army was as a “JAG” (Judge Advocate Officer/Attorney), and, thanks to you, the taxpayer, as a Soldier, I was privileged to travel to many far-flung regions, to twice deploy to combat zones, and to work with all sorts of people.  One thing is for certain:  “You’ve got to be fit to fight – and win!”  I believe this holds both in the military and for each one of us, to sustain and prevail in the battles of life.  Yes!  I would propose each of us should take on the mantle of a holistic warrior – a warrior not of destruction – but rather a “Warrior IV Life”!!!

I have been passionate about fitness and sports since my youth and am very honored and thrilled to now work with you in helping you “Be All That You Can Be!” (to yet again borrow that durable U.S. Army recruiting slogan from yesteryear).  I hope to do this by first getting to know you better, even if circumstances might dictate that it must be from a distance.  What are your true priorities in life?  How does “fitness” and wellness figure into the equation?  How might I help you crystallize and then work toward achieving your goals?

I look forward to getting to know you and would be honored to work with you!

“Be Fit!  Be Happy!  Be Active!  Be Well!
Be a Warrior IV Life!
HOOAH!  OOH-RAH!”
