For those of you who've read the Magic Hundred, you'll know that I place a great store on setting and achieving adventure goals that serve to motivate, inspire and bring us to life, stretch our comfort zones and awaken that spark of excitement within our spirits that we once had before we 'grew up' (whatever that means).
For me, adventure has always been a big part of my life. I've always enjoyed travelling to new and unusual places, trying new foods, doing new activities and stretching myself beyond my pre-existing boundaries.
In fact, in the last few years I've been to Thailand 10 times visiting Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Koh Samui, Koh Samet, Phuket, Angkor Wat in Cambodia, Hanoi, Hoi An, Da Nang in Vietnam, I've driven the entire East coast of Australia, swam on the Great Barrier Reef, Parachuted from 14,000ft with my 15 year old daughter Kayleigh, survived a Tsunami, flown an aeroplane, a helicopter and done so many wonderful things that sometimes I have difficulty remembering them all!
I have, in fact, been living the life of my dreams!
It got me to wondering...
How many people are actually stretching themselves to put even a little adventure into their lives? Not that many if the thousands of emails I recieve every week are anything to go by!
In fact, it seems that most people are caught in a kind of groundhod day, simply reliving the same day over and over again with little variation, adventure or excitement except maybe the annual holiday.
Yet it's so easy to put some adventure into your life.
Walk a different way to work.
Eat at a different restaurant.
Apply for a new job.
Go walking in the hills.
...do something NEW!!!
That's what adventure is about!
It's about growth and becoming more.
You don't need tons of money (though yes, it helps), just an imagination and a definite decision to make more of your days, weeks and years, in fact, YOUR LIFE, than you currently are.
Just ask yourself... 'Where's the adventure?' and if there's none then go get some!
Take a look at the video below for some ideas....
P.S - If you're thinking 'It's all right for you, you have the money to do that, you're right. I do.
Yet 5 years ago I earned £5 an hour and STILL found ways to add adventure to my life... in fact, building my business is one of those adventures.
Don't make a case for your limitations or sure enough, you'll get more!
Truth, joy and love!

The MAGIC Hundred
It's been a mad fortnight for me (which iswhy my blog postings have been non existant) due to the insane level of interest for The MAGIC Hundred program I released earlier this year.
It seems that absolutely everyone is buying the book, the audios and the coaching proogram from www.themagichundred.com and every day I awaken to more and more emails from seriously happy people who're loving my program.
It's a great feeling I can tell you! : )
I just recieved an email from Scott Toussignant telling me that he's even posted something about the program on Youtube!
Here it is...
If you're intersted in finding out why Scott's raving so much then go have a look at www.themagichundred.com

The FLY Story
Not that long ago, I was sitting in the reception of one of my personal training studios. It was a nice day so we had the studio door open to let in some ‘real’ air and freshen up the place a little.
As I sat there watching people come in and out for their training sessions I noticed a large, black fly had flown in and after buzzing around for a few minutes and finding nothing of interest, it decided to leave.
It flew right past my head and with a ‘thump’, hit the plate glass window before bouncing off and falling to the floor in a daze.
After a few seconds of circling around on the floor it took off again and took what I can only describe as a ’run-up’ (fly–up?) at the window in a greater attempt to get through the barrier that was keeping it from its goal of the outside world.
With an even louder ‘thump’ the fly went down again and spent more time on the floor.
Well, to cut a long story short, that fly got up again and again and again and pounded at that window with all of its might for over 10 minutes before I had to get up and take care of a customer.
About 30 minutes later I sat back down in the same spot having totally forgotten about the fly and went back to my ‘people watching’ when, out of the corner of my eye I saw the fly laying at the base of the window on its back, legs in the air.
It was dead.
Now, usually the death of a fly is not worthy of remembrance but this one I will always remember because its death taught me one of the greatest success lessons I’ve ever learned and I continue to reap the benefits of its teaching to this day.
What Did It Teach Me?
That Working Harder Simply Doesn’t Work!
You see, in theory, that little fly was doing everything right.
It had a clearly defined goal – To get out.
It had passion – It risked and eventually paid with its life.
It was willing to work as hard as necessary to bring about its goal.
In fact, that little bug kind of reminded me of many, many people that I’d met who knew what they wanted, had passion and were willing to work as hard as necessary to achieve their dreams but who were, over and over again bashing their heads in on the same invisible barrier that did for that fly.
And whilst it may not have ended in physical death for them (I hope not!), nearly always it ends in the death of their hopes and dreams which, to me at least, is pretty much the same thing.
No, at that very moment it was clear to me that working for most people harder would only ever take them so far but that, if they were willing to do what the fly and so many other people were unwilling to do, they could achieve far more than they ever dreamed possible.
That one thing?
Change their Strategy!
You see, that’s where that little fly had gone wrong and, truth be told, where most people are going wrong, is that it doggedly stuck to the same strategy even once it had failed to work.
Instead of flying 5 feet over to the open door to its freedom and whatever life awaited it beyond that invisible barrier, it continued to bang its head off of the window and, despite the fact that it was giving it everything it had and despite being so close to reaching its goal… failed miserably.
Just 5 feet in another direction would have made all the difference.
It made me think of the number of clients I'd trained who had, year after year after year, followed the same pattern of dieting that never worked, did the same exercise routines that never worked and struggled to achieve the same goals that never seemed to come about.
It made me think about that definition of madness 'Continuously doing the same things yet expecting different results' and left me with the realisation that many, many people are nuts! : )
Yet all it would take for sanity to be regained and for serious results to be achieved is one simple thing...
Try a different strategy.
So my challenge to you is, make 2007 the year that you change your strategy.
Find someone who's already getting the results you want.
Watch them.
Listen to them.
Copy them.
Stop insisting on choosing failure by default and make 2007 your year!

The four lies you'll tell yourself on New Years Eve part 1
Have you ever noticed how many good, honest, hardworking people turn into liars at New Year?
It's an amazing thing to watch as people from all walks of life, all ages and both sexes, go through the whole New Year’s resolution ‘thing’ and tell themselves lies about what the next 12 months will bring them.
You see, at this time of year many, many people go through the whole New Year’s resolution ‘thing’ and, let’s be honest, tell themselves lies about what the next 12 months will bring them.
You know what I mean.
11.59pm on New Year’s Eve you turn to a loved one and say “This year is going to be different. I’m really going to achieve some great things!” and for that one minute, that one moment in time, you mean it. You REALLY mean it!
You are fired up, raring to go and ready, willing and (despite the glass of champagne in your hand) able to commit to that new diet, getting that payrise or new job, starting that company, writing that book and a whole host of other great sounding things.
Then the bells ring in the New Year and a funny thing happens.
January 1st rolls around and, whilst the goals are still in your head, they don’t seem as important anymore. (maybe it’s the champagne?)
January 2nd comes and by lunchtime you’re telling yourself that some of your goals are ‘just silly fantasies’ and you scratch them off your list.
January 3rd arrives and, despite a much shorter list than you had just 2 days before, you start to tell yourself that “I’ve got all year to do this. I don’t have to start right now. Let me just ‘settle in’ to the year first and ‘get myself sorted’ and THEN I’ll work on my goals”
Like I said, all lies!
In fact, there are FOUR of them…
Lie number one: ‘This year is going to be different’
The truth of the matter is, for most people, sad though it is, 2007 is going to be EXACTLY the same as 2006 was.
Why?
Because their strategy is EXACTLY the same as it was last year and, as the saying goes, if you keep on doing what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got.
Lie number two: ‘The goals don’t seem as important anymore’
Yes they are! They’re just as important as they were 24 hours ago it’s just that somewhere deep down you’ve started to persuade yourself that your goals are somehow unachievable and, if the truth be known, you’re scared about failing so instead you lie about their importance.
Lie number three: ‘They’re just silly fantasies’
This is a continuation of lie number two but much more harmful. With this lie you’ve started to rationalise and justify why your goals are impossible and use all kinds of excuses disguised as ‘reasons’ as to why your goals are unrealistic… the biggest lie of all!
Lie number four: ‘I’ll settle in and get sorted’
What a great lie!
This is an ‘I’m not giving up, I just need to get back into the flow at work or school before I attack these goals’ kind of lie that you use to delay things until the time is right.
But wait a minute…
Wasn’t work, school or your other favourite excuse the reason why you couldn’t achieve your goals before New Year?
No, lie number four is simply a delay tactic, that ‘one day’ lie that we all tell ourselves in order to get out of taking action when we know we could, when we know we should. You know, ‘one day when I have more time…’ or ‘one day when I have more money…’ (or whatever else you use to delay your goals).
Regardless of your ‘one day’ excuse, the results are the same… zero!

New Elimination Diet Samples Gone Mad!!
I've been writing my elimination diet newsletter for nearly 18 months now and in that time it has grown to well over 10,000 subscribers from all around the world.
Yet, sitting in your office as you write, you tend to forget that these 10,000 are actually out there, lurking : ), waiting for something new, something unusual, something that that can use to get serious results fast.
Well, I had a not-so-gentle reminder of that this morning when I woke to find over 3 and a half THOUSAND emails in my inbox asking me, begging me, pleading (actually some were quite threatening) to be given my 5 day meal planner.
It was nuts! This is simply a free download that I'd offered to my readers, nothing to go into a feeding frenzy (excuse the pun) over!
Now, don't get me wrong, as a professional personal trainer, I'm always pleased when people contact me about one of my services but 3,500 people for a free download??
I was puzzled...
Then it hit me!
Christmas and New Year have already taken their toll.
People have gotten fat, gained weight and slobbed out for most of December and now, with New Year fast approaching, they're desperate to lose fat, get fit and 'tone up' (whatever that means) and they'll do ANYTHING to get nutrition, diet and exercise advice... as long as it works!
The only trouble is, the big diet and supplement companies know this and they're more than willing to take advantage and squeeze as much money out of the unsuspecting public as possible for useless crap that simply doesn't work.
That's why I was very pleased to get an email from my good friend Craig Ballantyne over at Mens Health Magazine this afternoon.
Apparently, his Best-Selling Turbulence Training Exercise and Nutrition Manual is in the last 24 hours of a seriously amazing Christmas sale that promises to over-deliver on a grand scale.
Craig has packed a bumper load of extra bonuses into an already excellent product and has really outdone himself with exercise plan, nutrition plans and the very latest in cutting-edge training to burn serious bodyfat.
I won't tell you more about it here or you'll think I'm doing a sales job on you but understand this; In my entire career I have never gone out of my way to recommend a product from another personal trainer, yet I do so more than happily and in the full knowledge that Craig's Turbulence Training will deliver the good.

Personal Training Sucks!
I had an email from a woman today (we'll call her Irene) who emailed me in a last-ditch effort to actually help her achieve some serious weight loss, fat loss and in order to help her get over a few serious medical conditions that have been plaguing her for the last 15 years.
Irene told me that over the last 7 of those years she has worked with no fewer than 11 personal trainers!
Now, I've got to admit, when a client tells me that they've worked with more than a few trainers my internal alarms start ringing 'are they trouble?' , 'will they commit?' and all kinds of things.
You see, my own clients are with me on average for 4-6 years so I don't really understand it when someone says they change around a lot.
Well, Irene told me why.
"Each and every one of my trainers made great promises about what I'd get from training with them. They charged me a lot of money up front and spoke to me about commitment and results. It all sounded great. Just what I was looking for.
Everything would work out well for 4 weeks or so, then the results would dry up and they'd lose interest in me.
They'd make me feel like my lack of results was my fault!
"Then she told me "I've come to the opinion that personal training sucks".
The thing is, though I wanted to stick up for my profession, I had to agree that, yes, most of the time the service that you get from a personal trainer really does suck!
There, I said it!
Most of the time there is no real assessment.
Most of the time there is no real understanding of what goes into winning the battle in the mind (the hardest bit)
Most of the time there's a total insistence on doing everything the hard way and even the WRONG way for the client.
Most of the time the client gets a restrictive nutrition program that cuts too many calories instead of a SUPPORTIVE nutrition program that helps the body to improve.
Most of the time the meaning of the word 'client' is forgotten and instead 'customer' is used to describe the same thing.
(a client is one who is under the care of another whilst a customer is one who enters into a transaction)
Most of the time, when the client fails to get results, the trainer blames THEM instead of taking responsibility.
Most of the time personal training and personal trainers suck!!
BUT NOT ALL OF THE TIME!
There are some fantastic people out there who will not only provide good service but even GUARANTEE RESULTS in specific time frames.
Some will even charge you one price for the results... regardless of the time taken.
The real trick is finding them right?
Check in tomorrow and I'll tell you how.
To your success

Can 4 Minute Workouts Work?
I've been doing a lot of work here in the UK recently to develop my new MELTDOWN Programme which is designed to create rapid fat loss whilst at the same time building firm, strong muscles (no, NOT bodybuilding).
The workouts have gained a lot of attention in the press recently (http://www.guardian.co.uk/health/story/0,,1836032,00.html) and have had my in-box filled with questions not only about getting hold of the programme but also...'Does it work?'
To the first, I'm currently writing MELTDOWN into a new book with 20 different workouts for people of varying fitness and with different goals and need.
To the second, the answer is a definite 'Yes'.
As short as it sounds, 4 minutes CAN and DOES produce some amazing effects in strength, endurance, fat loss, flexibility and co-ordination. It really does work!
Look at the news reporter that I put through a single 4 minute protocol here: http://tvnz.co.nz/view/video_popup_windows_skin/834190
Now, I'd love to take full credit for this system but it was Prof. Tabata at the Tokyo Institute of Sport and Exercise who first developed it.
What I've done is added new exercises, new patterns (what I call matrix) and a seriously effective dietary programme to speed up the effects and make the most of your training. You'll also receive a full programme that develops through from a single 4 minute workout through to a full 30 minute 'mega-matrix' that will tax even the fittest of athletes.
It'll be here for Jan 1st, just in time to get rid of the Christmas blubber.
Keep your eyes peeled!

Energy and Persistence
"Energy and Persistence conquer All Things" - Benjamin Franklin
That quote really hits home today as I finally 'put to bed' several MAJOR goals that I've been working on over the last year. Goals that, at times, felt like they were never going to come true.
Some of my readers know that earlier this year, on the eve of publishing several books and delivering the biggest seminar of my life (and the biggest paycheque too), my car got broken into whilst I was paying for gas at a service station.
That wouldn't have been a problem if my laptop, hard-drive and backup discs hadn't been inside at the time but, as I was going to my publishers with several finished products, they were.
That little incident cost me over £50,000 in seminar refunds and several years of lost research.
What was even more damaging though, was what was really taken at the time.
All of those late nights when I was writing or researching...
All of those evenings when I ignored my family in order to do 'just one more page'....
All of those days when I had focused on things other than my lovely family...
That's what got to me most.
Now, I tell you I was REALLY upset when the theft happened but my wife Deana, the love of my life, told me that very day "Start writing today".
So I did.
But the journey seemed long. REALLY long!
But I wrote.
...and wrote...
...and wrote.
And as I wrote, I kept in mind that Lao Tsu saying about the journey of a thousand miles.
Every day I was taking a single step (or at least I was trying to). Some days I took 10 steps and other days I went forward hardly at all, but I kept moving. Kept applying energy to my goals and maintained a dogged persistence to make them happen.
Today, that persistence has paid off.
Today, I'm ecstatic that I have finally finished writing my 'MAGIC 100' book and recording the audio programme that accompanies it.
Today, I wrote, produced and filmed my 'Mobility Matrix DVD' which has been on my mind for ages.
Today, I received the final instructions for channel four that my video 'The Michelle McManus Lifeplan' which I wrote and starred in alongside Michelle has been edited and approved for distribution on boxing day.
Today is a good day!
The reason I'm writing this up in my blog today is not to brag in any way but to remind any of you you may be on the edge of quitting and giving up on any of your dreams that energy and persistence will ALWAYS pay off in the end.
So, don't quit.
Don't give up.
Keep putting one foot in front of another and you WILL get what you want.
As Brian Tracy puts it, 'The best way to become unstoppable is to REFUSE TO STOP'.
To your success
Dax
P.S - The Magic 100 and the Movement Matrix will be on my site withinhe next few days...

Guinea pig updates
Wow!
The last couple of days at my studio have been absolutely mad!!
We've dealt with over 200 enquiries from people wanting to join the programme and have almost shosen our final 16 (it's a bit like pop-idol!).
Kevin Raison, my course director has really had his hands full with dealing with everyone so far, as well as, believe it or not, a few people who said that they weree willing to attend the course but....
They WOULD NOT be willing to give up wheat, dairy, caffeine, alcohol or sugar (though they would happily change to a healthy eating plan)
Thought that daily exercise sounded a bit obsessive and instead would consent to 'a couple of times a week' .
And will attend all sessions but might not be able to come to about 50% of them...
Hmmm...
People are strange arhey not?
This is a free weight management course that we're offering here and people want us to change it for THEM!!!
What do you think their chances are?
Anyway, we still have 3 places left so if you're interested then get your application into kevin by emailing info@daxmoy.co.uk

Want To Be A Fat Loss 'Guinea Pig'?
I'm currently looking for 16 suitable men and women to enter a 6 week trial of my newestweight management course.
This course will strip pounds of bodyfat, tone and firm muscle,make you stronger, more flexible and oh, so much fitter...and allin just 6 weeks!
Sounds like a bit of a 'sales job' right?
Like I'm trying to sell you into buying something you can't afford?
Nope!
In fact, it's the exact opposite.
We're looking for 16 people, men and women, to join the programmeand partake in our workshops, fitness classes, dietary programmesand lifestyle changes for an entire six weeks... For FREE!
Seriously, we're not looking for a single penny from any of our participants.
But...We ARE looking for SERIOUS participants!
What do I mean by serious?
Well, there will be 2 courses, one in the day and one in the evening. Whichever you choose you will be required to attend once a week for the entire six weeks.
You will also be required to attend AT LEAST one fitness class (this is free too) with us every week and commit to daily exercise at home.
You'll have to follow our elimination diet TO THE LETTER throughout the entire programme (you can look at this today by downloading it from www.daxmoy-pts.co.uk/elimination/) and also maintain a daily journal.
There's a little more to it, but not much...
Ultimately, we're looking for DOERS not TALKERS who have finally had enough of looking and feeling out of shape and who are finally ready to commit to getting things right.
Are you one of these people?
If you are and if you can commit to 6 weeks of workshops andclasses AND the other things mentioned above then you COULD qualifyfor a place.
But....Before you apply, you need to understand this;
The course is definitely FREE, there's no worries there, you won't pay a single penny. However, if you drop out of the programme (and that means drop out of following our advice too) then we'll chargeyou the full programme price of £500.
Now, some of you might be thinking 'I knew there was a catch' but there really isn't.
If selected you'll get the course for free as long as you finish it. If not (or if you're already worried aboutthe £500 you MIGHT have to pay) then this course is not for you anyway.
Ultimately, we're doing this without charge because we need data and feedback about how effective our new methods are (we kinda knowas this is the EXACT protocol I used to help Michelle McManus drop10 stones) and the only way we can do that is to have ourcandidates go the distance.
So, are you interested?
If so, we need to hear from you IMMEDIATELY.
I mean right away! Send me an email with a brief bio about you, what you've tried inthe past and why you'd be a good candidate.
Tomorrow, Kevin (my course director) will give you a call and ask you a few more questions to check if you're one of the people we're looking for (so don't forget to leave a contact number and best time to call).
He'll tell you more about days and times during the call and then invite you down to an orientation before the course starts (in the next 2 weeks)
I look forward to hearing from you

P.S - I'm already excited about what the next 6 weeks will bring!!
