New Title

As you can see, the title of my blog has changed.

Why?

It represents a change in focus and mentality. To me, blue collar represents the working class. The men and women who put their hours in, day in a day out. Hard work and earning your dollar. No portfolios, no bling, no fancy cars. They are the workhorses of America and don't get enough recognition for being the backbone of this country.

And they don't care. Blue Collar workers know that the secret to happiness in life is enjoying what you do, no matter what it is. They don't long for the roller-coasters of Wall Street, the enjoy the continuity of Main Street.

This is the mentality I am adopting to training. Day in, day out. Yes, I have a nice bike. But I don't have the cash to put on a set of 1080's with a powertap. I don't train with a heart rate monitor anymore. For me personally, these are all distractions. Volume and nutrition are all that I am focusing on these days. I think that will get me far.

Blue Collar, waking up early in the morning, punching the clock and gettin' 'er done.

Good Luck to everyone as your seasons begin!
