In Key West a Grand Slam is a Tarpon, Bonefish and Permit caught by the same angler in one day. In order to achieve this, you have to be willing to take risks and be determined to accomplish your goal.

So you've broken your arm, torn your ACL, hurt your shoulder... Does that stop you from continuing to work on the habit you've built of working out?

To be a better guide you must pay attention to your communication, journaling and managing expectations of clients. Check out this podcast and other linked in THIS BLOG for all the ways you can improve your guiding. Important things to note would also be your fitness, making sure you're getting enough sleep and not comparing yourself to other guides. Comparison is the thief of joy.

I lead an active lifestyle as a guide…why do I need to workout even more?” I received this question from a listener.  Guides and athletes that engage in only one form of exercise stand a chance to develop overuse injuries resulting from repetitive motion over a long period of time.  Incorporating some strengthening exercises for opposing directional movements can go a long way to making sure that you are able to continue doing what you love for much longer.
