Leigh Peele.com and what is to come


06 May

The end of an era is upon us.  It is the end, hopefully, of people saying my website name wrong. I can’t blame them, I mean what the heck was I thinking?

moving-blog

Avidity Fitness is still my companies name, but no one cares about my companies name. Its really weird to see that 13 people have come to your site from typing in “Leigh Peele Tattoo.” You guys are weird.

I will say that paled in comparison to the 134 people that arrived today from typing in “Jessica Simpson Fat.” Obviously I have a ways to go. If it means that much to you, I will eat more ice cream. Just for you though, okay?

All kidding aside,  soon I am going to switch over to http://www.leighpeele.com.

For the record Avidity Fitness.net will still be here. There are too many links coming in, and redirects are never fun.  I am going to do a “update your bookmark” post, and try to put what resources I can on the new site. Personally, I wanted to redo a lot of things and I would like a fresh start.

You wouldn’t think that so much would change from a simple URL change, but funny enough I think it will.

Here what will NOT change.

-It will still be a place to find my podcasts and information on diet and training.
-It will still highlight articles I have written or resources that might help you out.
-I will still be the one blogging and relaying all the information.

What WILL change

-More talking about my clients and my training (personally).
-More talking about general things that I like and enjoy (not all business. )
-More talks of my travels, and the things I see, do, and want to do.

In short, it will be more personal.

I still want it to be helpful for you, I still will answer questions, none of that will change.

There is more…

Body by eats.

Everyone has been asking about it and I finally have some news for you.

Initially I was just going to release a cookbook/diet program. I thought that  was what you wanted. The problem was the more I asked you questions about what you wanted, the more it wasn’t the direction I was going. So I changed it, tested, changed it, tested, and finally came up with the ultimate answer and tweak to the situation.

Body By Eats will not just be a cookbook/diet program. It is going to be WAY more than that.

I will say that because of spiies (you would think I am kidding, but sadly I am not) I have to keep some info on the down low until the launch date comes closer. It looks like right now, I hope, we are 2-3 months off.  I will say that it is a membership site and  it will be the BEST resource and accountability resource available. It will be at a VERY reasonable price, but of high quality. There will be a chance to work with me 1-on-1 again in the future, even a chance for me to travel to where you are.

This will only work if you are involved, it will be driven by you.

What, there is more?

Oh yeah, there is a LOT more. The email list is going to change, you helping getting the word out is going to be more important than ever, and hopefully there will be so many goodies going around you wont know what to do with yourself. Yes, I am hyping just a little, but it will be that good.

What I ask of you is to just keep things real with me, let me know what you want and chances are you will get it. That is how this should work. I have a wealth of information, contacts, and experience. However, I don’t always see things the way you might see them. If there is something you want me to offer, tell me and I will do it.

You can start right now, what is on your Wishlist? What do you want that people or me aren’t offering? I still have time to stuff the gift bag right now, and its on you to tell me what you want.

FLzine.com – It will change everything

Edit: I have got a few emails about this so I thought I would add. There is no login or password for the site. It is like that to keep you out until finished. However, when it goes live, it will not be a members only site. It will be viewable by all.

If that seems dramatic, it isn’t. While it may seem like I have only been mentioning this site for a short time, the truth is that I was made for this site. I know that one of my purposes in life is to bring this site to life. Every spare moment I have has been going into it. Along with me have been the best (known and unknown) in the field. The outcome is nothing short of amazing. This is exactly what the world needs to break the dogma in diet and fitness.

Lazy trainers, be warned.
Crack doctors, you had your run.
Mainstream media you may have the money, but you can’t break the power of unity.

The site is free. The forum is free.  The information will be priceless.

I have been asked to describe it. I can’t. Below is the best I can offer.  I hope you enjoy it. All I ask is that you post a comment stating a word (or words) to describe how you feel when you think of the site. I will start if you don’t mind.

Euphoric

In the waiting line…

This week has been short of amazing. Next week might just rival. I have good news and I have bad news.

Good News: The good news is that I have been involved in a very cool training assignment for a “local” studio. Studio as in film. I know what you are thinking, how can being in Greensboro NC have anything like that to offer? They don’t, ha. However, 3 hours away they do and I am on board. I will keep name dropping for other people but I can say that it doesn’t hurt to have more social proof and for whatever reason why people on that telly help and I will leave it at that.

Bad News: Since I am going to be traveling so much the next few weeks, the holidays are coming, and have a new site launch coming up there is going to be a hiatus until December. I know, I know you are going to miss me but I will still be all over the place. In fact, those of you who have a Facebook page need to add me because I just set mine up!

I assure you when back it will be better than ever and I will bring goodies. Sometimes you have to stop to move forward ;) In the meantime…

Below is a video response to a concerned email from a reader. I hope you find it as funny as I did.

More important though I have a huge announcement. I, Leigh Peele, can now be followed on Twitter.

Now I am new and I am learning how this all works so be kind. It seems fun though and I look forward to updating it and talking to you all.

On with the show…

Leigh Peele and 3 Big Pieces of News


13 Aug

Big News #1- I am going to be talking on the Fitcast. For those not aware of what it is Fitcast is a fitness show hosted by Kevin Larrabee. I am told my boy, Tony Gentilcore, is going to be on the call so I am excited about that. Tony is one of my favorite fitness bloggers due to him being able to consistently fuse humor and something good to say every time.

If you have something you want answered shoot some questions here: http://thefitcast.com/?page_id=440

Big News #2- I am ending my run of distance-training until further notice. I have taken up a position of helping other professionals that will not leave me time for new distance clients. This is a pretty big deal, short term. I am still going to be doing in-person training, but in order to do that I can’t take on any more clients in a distance-sense except for special conditions or case clients. As a result, I am feeling terrible turning down all the requests for training. Even though I won’t be able to take on new clients I AM going to be doing phone consults and a free conference. Thus, it works out better because you are going to get more of me and for cheaper.

Big News #3- Body By Eats is going to be having a recipe contest and it’s own blog! Not only will you get your recipe in Body By Eats you will also win the book, all the downloads, and did I mention the luscious cash prize?!

Stay tuned for more details to come.

EDIT: I got one message asking what is “special occasions or case clients” and how do you qualify?

Well sometimes I do a particular study on a certain group of people (ex-smokers, cancer recovery, etc) and will ask for them.

The special occasions are not because ”I have lots of money” since in reality I could care less about the monetary aspect, and I can get that without being “picky.” Instead, special occasions are usually those with severe physical limitations or illnesses. It’s for those who otherwise can’t afford a personal trainer, and I work with them in exchange for having data to pull from them and to just help out. I can’t do this all the time but I do so when I can because it’s still important.

So while it’s fun, and I can’t say I hate it, throwing money at me isn’t going cause a different motivation at the moment and that isn’t what my work is about. It’s only a time issue and nothing more. I will still work with my current clients and am very happy to do so at that.

That being said, please remember the current change isn’t forever and you will find that even better things are to come.
