Philosophy:
5  Ideas 

that will 
Set You 
FREE


Want to be fit and healthy? Try this: Go outside. Listen to your body. Trust yourself. Ask yourself why some of the "pros" in the fitness mega-industry insist that you'll need their gadget, gizmo, or performance gear in order to be fit. Notice the world around you. Breathe. 

Free Range Fitness isn't complicated, but it is revolutionary.

1.  Ditch the GyM

You go to the gym to feel better but instead you feel frenzied, rushed, blitzed, annoyed, self-conscious and financially tapped out. No wonder so many people don't go consistently. Good thing there's a better way. Working out outdoors offers a more challenging, satisfying, stress-reducing, and fulfilling workout than staying inside. And it's cheaper...much cheaper if you go out and workout for free!

2. Trust Yourself

Put your faith in someone who truly cares about you: you! There are times when you DO need experts, but the vast majority of us don't need them all the time.  My motto: Get your teeth professionally cleaned twice a year, but brush your teeth twice a day.  The same goes for fitness.

3. RETHINK EQUIPMENT

From the treadmill gathering dust in your basement to the stability ball that takes up half your bedroom; most fitness equipment is best at doing two things: lightening your wallet and boring you to death! Fortunately, there's plenty of equipment out in nature! Trees, rocks, sand, logs. Not to mention, benches, staircases, playground equipment, and so much more! And you don't have to buy it, store it, or trip over it!

4. Get the Right DATA

Exercising these days is like going on a mission to Mars. Do we really need mission control monitoring our every heartbeat, exhalation, degree of elevation, speed, perspiration and distance? Absolutely not. It's time to track the right data and get the results you've been looking for.

5. Simplify Your Gear

Technical outdoor gear designers dress people for Himalayan expeditions. It's awesome! Except that now we think we need that stuff just to walk the dog around the block. Not only does the obsession to have the "right" gear impede people, but the expense and proper care of this "performance" gear can overwhelm the mission. Put simply: please don't buy anything to work out in, that you'll feel is too "good" to get sweaty, muddy, rainy, grassy, torn, or stretched.  If it sounds like I'm talking about a ratty old t-shirt from goodwill, you're right! Let's get real about gear, people!

Look at Marty! She's (1) outside! (2) working out without an "expert", (3) using her bodyweight as equipment instead of gadgets! She's (4) not using gizmo data devices and (4) wearing an old t-shirt, leggings and running shoes so she won't mind getting dirty! Go Marty!!

Why Would a Screenwriter become a fitness philosopher?

I love outdoor workouts. They allow me to touch moss and mud and sand and grass; to recognize the richness of life, and to be connected to my friends, the seasons, and my world. Free Range Fitness is my commitment to help others ditch the gym and get a better, happier, more effective workout that will transform their lives.  I believe this deeply. I invite you to join me, in being cage-free!
