Obesity and lack of good health in America is a growing epidemic. With today’s high demands and need for speed it is quite easy to lose focus and balance. Living a productive and healthy life requires for each element, “Mind, Body & Spirit” to be properly positioned in our everyday lives so that we are not lacking balance. Unfortunately, it is far too often that at least one of the pieces of becoming completely fit individuals is left behind. Question; what are your thoughts when you think of becoming a complete fit person? It is vitally important to understand that wealth, health, fitness and a purposeful driven life goes far beyond physical exercise.
It is an associated manifestation between mind, body and spirit. One must possess a healthy inner (Spirit), for it stimulates your awareness, the (Mind) and your mind unites vitality, the (Body). Ignoring or giving closer attention to one element over the other can eventually take its toll.

• Redefine fitness (Complete Fitness)
• Thrive into becoming complete fit and healthier people by nurturing the mind, body and spirit
• Understand how good social, health and fitness stimulates happiness

Tony will equip you with the knowledge to change your future as well as others around you.

Athletes are some of the most determined group of people that walk the face of the earth. Their inflexible work ethics are always raising the bar of expectation. Research proves that the characteristics of athletes are determined, independent, self-confident, competitive, socially outgoing and more objective than non-athletes. They are known to be extravert people. Yet, despite of their durability it’s still imperative they are pushed and challenged to reach their highest potential and personal greatness; not only on the court or field, but as everyday people in life. As a former athlete and Semi-Pro Football player, as well as a graduate student of the unique field of Applied Sport Psychology, Tony can truly relate to the challenges and demands of being an athlete. Tony shares researchable insights and powerful motivation to help your audience:
• Develop psychological skills for performance enhancement (Methods and Strategies)
• Enhance performance excellence and personal excellence (Athlete-centered sport model)
• Excel to be the best person they can be on and off the court and field
• Understand the attributes of mental toughness
Tony also understands the importants of athletes being accepted for who they really are, more so than what they are. “Allison Wagner, a former Olympic swimming medalist spoke from the heart concerning being an elite athlete stating; “I didn’t need coaches and sport psychologist telling me how to improve my performance, I could do that.” She went on to talk about her loneliness of being an elite athlete and her quest to discover the real person within herself.” (Sport Psychology, 2007). Tony’s powerful motivational speech will address and emphasize confidence and the critical need to know who you are as a person.
