The “Bye� Month Issue
Note: This is the final Pro Power E-mag Published Mid-Month; beginning March 2015 Issues will be published the 1st of each new month
Taking the “BYE” can be a good thing From the Editor Sometimes taking the “Bye” is good. In sports you have the bye week where teams take time off and don’t compete/play games for that specific week. The week off can be for a variety of reasons such as scheduling purposes, team recuperation, etc. And more often than not, what you do with the bye week is up to you. Many teams and athletes use it as an opportunity to rest physically and mentally, while others use the bye to re-tool strategies for success for the next competition.
A bye week in life is good sometimes too. In the real world life comes at us at a fast, busy pace. We want to get it all done, all on time, then move on to the next thing. But sometimes it’s okay to take a breather, a quick pause, or a BYE in life. Have that coffee break during the mid-morning rush. Take a walk in the evening instead of washing the dinner dishes right away. Take a BYE. This month I took a bye, but for a different reasons. We publish the Pro Power E-Mag each month, as a mid-month training and fitness digital publication. We try to stock it full of applicable articles and training products that are relevant to the training and fitness lifestyle. I made a conscious decision recently to start publishing Pro Power at the beginning of each month instead of the halfway point in the month. So as the month starts out fresh and new, we will publish a fresh and new publication for our audience. So in February (the shortest month) I took a “bye” from publishing Pro Power. I am using my bye however not as a way to rest and recover. I am using my bye as a way to re-tool Pro Power to make it BETTER. When we come back Mar ch 1st we will hit the ground running with these great topics: Editorial: Train like an athlete to look like an athlete Training Tech: Get your lifting right with the PUSH Fitness Monitor Book Reviews: Ready to Run, Power Positions and Misty Training Spaces: D-1 Sports Training
Zen Article: “Peace has cost you your strength” –Bane The Dark Knight Rises Workout of the Month: Rope Battling for Killer Cardio ….and much more! Plus we will feature our usual arsenal or great training and fitness products. So I am going to take a quick bye to re-tool a little. Look for Pro Power March 1st but in the meantime flip over to the next page and take a look at our great training products in this “article FREE” bye issue. Ill see you next month. And by the way----don’t forget to take your own personal bye. Daimond Dixon Pro Power E-Mag
