CA: Tell me a bit about your career as well as outside interests.

I am a strength and conditioning coach in NYC and I have created a training method called Train P3, which stands for Performance, Power, and Physique. I teach private, semi private and group training. Most of my clients are dancers, bodyweight athletes or anyone interested in moving better, becoming more functional and developing an athletic physique while focusing on multi-modal movement.

In my own life, I constantly try to experiment with various training styles (e.g., bodyweight training, gymnastics, dance, Olympic weightlifting, parkour etc.) to become a better athlete and express my creativity.

I am also a fitness model with Wilhelmina Models, I love elephants and my favorite color is purple.

TRAINING ON THE GO! Don’t let limited time or space be your excuse.

TRAINING ON THE GO! Don’t let limited time or space be your excuse.
13 Jan

We don’t always have time or available facility to get a perfect training session.  This does not mean that we should abandon our training till all conditions are ideal.  It is beneficial to incorporate bouts of training into our daily lives even if they are brief.  Your movement practice could be subtle.  You could have increased awareness of the way your foot strikes the ground as you step of the curb, or mobilizing your wrists while waiting in line.  If you are more bold, you can be as overt as doing a handstand, hanging on a railing, or sitting in a deep primal squat while waiting for your train.  The important part is that you do something, because the little things can add up to great results.

Check out the article I wrote for Mind Body Green about training on the go and the video of training at the airport below.

My Train P3 Experience
03 Jul

Today’s guest post is from Alexa Fitzpatrick who has started the blog www.MyTrainP3Experience.wordpress.com. The blog details what it is like to go through the Train P3 6-week program as someone who is not used to working out on a regular basis. If you already take the Saturday classes or semi-privates with Nerijus, you might see yourself in the characters/photos. If you have ever wondered if the Train P3 6-week program is the right thing for you, this blog will tell you the real deal of what it feels like to commit to changing your body over 6-weeks, from workouts to diets to state of mind. Spoiler alert: it’s not always easy!

Alexa’s 6-week Experience

Nerijus and I met in an elevator at a networking party. He graciously introduced himself and I ran away because he looked too fit to talk to. I’m a writer. He’s a trainer. I’m a before picture. He’s an after.

Spring and Summer Cleanse Tips

Spring and Summer Cleanse Tips
03 Jun

Today’s guest post comes from a holistic health and empowerment coach and chef Donna Sonkin Shaw HHC, AADP.   In this post, Donna gives some tips on cleansing your diet without resorting to extreme measures and avoiding losing muscle and strength.

 

Cleanse Tips from Donna

The word “cleanse” is a big part of our culture now.

There are many different ways to “do a cleanse” some are very extreme – juice fasts for example, and others are pretty simple “eating clean”, forgoing alcohol, refined sugars and fats, processed foods/ anything genetically modified, poor quality soy and inferior/ over processed dairy as well as chocolate and coffee.
