As the story has it, one day I headed to the opposite side of the globe – the Flipside. I arrived in Korea February 16th, 2005 and thought I’d do a year, then leave. I was wrong. I stayed, launched my first company, Flipside Fitness, and then opened Korea's largest boxing club, Hulk's Boxing (now called Hulk's Club).

After 11.5yrs in Korea, I then picked up one day and returned to Toronto, Canada. But then I left again.

Now I live in the Philippines where I am the CEO and head coach of Empowered Clubhouse, the Philippines' first and only boxing clubhouse exclusively just for women. I also am the founder of the Lil' Sistas Project, CEO and designer of Slay Gear and Baa Baa Black Sheep .Ph.

A Better Bod a Better Mind

Chillaxed in the afternoon with my 3 four-legged beauties and with my fan not working and us having no air con at the house, it was definitely one of those must-be-as-close-to-naked-as-possible days.  
I killed myself at training last night so I woke up to a very sore body.  I've really switched up both my training and eating this past month so it's been awesome to notice the changes not to mention perfect timing too.  I didn't want to be the only one fully clothed at training tonight!!
Tomorrow Invicta FC 6 takes place and I'll be cheering on two particular ladies.  Tonight I watched their weigh-in and wow, what a humbling, humbling experience I tell you.  My so-called noticable differences really are nothing in comparision to these buff women.  Leslie, on the left in the photo, has abs I dream about in my sleep and slave away for at the gym.  Much respect to her, to all of them actually.  I will always be a proud supporter of strong, fierce women who are passionate about their sport and put their health and fitness at the top of their priority list.
... after seeing them weigh-in, I couldn't help but feel the need to put my shirt back on though :(
Headed out to a local bookstore to buy a new Korean grammar textbook to study from.  I want to resume my studying because I really DO need to rely on my Korean at work.
Later in the evening I headed out to Hulk's to do a bit of work and to study.  I know, I know... it's my day off I shouldn't be at work and yes I'm a geek for spending my Saturday night studying... so be it.  I'll show you who is the so-called geek when we're at the beach, I'm sporting the abs and chatting it up with my Korean hotties... ya, that's right;)
