Dynamic Functional Core Strength Training: Shoulders and Legs
Dynamic functional core strength training is one of my specialties I offer all my athletes and clients this complete way to fire up the nervous system and recruit large and small muscle groups all at once. (Video link below)
It's Never Too Late
It's never too late to embrace health and fitness. It is THE ONE THING you can control. Stress and anxiety are at all-time high and while gas prices and food continue to soar, I'm noticing my clients are really benefiting from our weekly, sometime twice weekly, de-stress training sessions.

Truth be told, I never thought I'd sit down riding giant swells until I went for a ride in the Grey Ghost, Obake.

Everyone can benefit from Dynamic Functional Core Strength training. I’ve been training Tony via Zoom and in person for some time. He quite the advanced ocean athlete and in superior shape. With his goals in mind, I wanted to share with you 3 excellent functional core strength exercises that support and strengthen the shoulders and legs, while constantly requiring the demands of the core muscles. He is preparing for the 26 mile channel crossing, Maui to Molokai this July.
Functional core strength training requires excellent kinetic chain alignment and full body awareness. Each movement is purposeful and correct to keep the body in optimum position during an exercise. This equates to full muscle stimulation and enhanced performance outcomes, and may also help in preventing injuries.

Some of you know I've been loving getting to learn all the technical nuances of the OC1 or outrigger canoe. I've SUP downwinded on Maliko now since 2010 and thought I'd try my skills in the boat! WOW it's different, and very humbling. Its such a different perspective and a blast to go so fast. Talk about an ab workout?!?!
This amazing boat is designed by Kai Bartlett founder of Kai Wa'a Canoes. This is the Pro model and weights in at 13lbs. I've named it OBAKE. Japanese for "grey ghost" which is translated as always transforming. I'm hooked. Photo by Jeremy Riggs.

Advanced Neuro-Transformational Coaching |

Remember the best in the world surround themselves with the best in the world. Those that have a deeper wisdom, similar life experiences and the practiced knowledge to help them explore and expand their dreams and full potential. Suzie Cooney

My additional focus now, post-Covid, is working with people and athletes of all levels who may need a serious confidence boost and/or mindset shift acceleration to help them improve their overall performance and get their body AND brain back in the game.
Another way I am helping athletes and others as they transition into the next phase of their life or their encore life. Often this happens due to injury, an unforseen event or circumstance. I give them courage and clarity to harness their gifts and talents in their next best life. Additionally, I'm forever helping people develop not only their bodies but strengthening their minds.
Additionally, I offer the same support and coaching to those looking for a Thinking Partner, Progressive Guidance towards specific outcomes and goals, and also Deep Neuro-Transformational Coaching with VIP Support, for those seeking major shifts and big changes. Learn more here
