It's official – AFAA CEU's will be available at the ICI/PRO Conference!
Dear Continuing Education Provider:
Congratulations! You have been accepted as a 2011 AFAA Authorized Continuing Education Provider. Your professionalism and educational programs will enable AFAA certiï¬ed instructors to earn quality continuing education units through the AFAA Provider Program.
As a habitual inventor / innovator, I love seeing others create new products and then work their butts off trying to make a business out of it. As someone who tends to leave his water bottles fermenting in his gym bag it's easy to understand how having a bottle you can wash from both ends is a good thing.
If you watched the Tour of California or this year's Tour de France you may have seen Bottle Boy running with the riders as they pass. What an awesome idea for gaining some free publicity.
Here is a quick interview Bob Roll did with Clean Bottle inventor Dave Mayer at the Tour of California.
In a typical fitness conference “sponsorship”, Company A pays Event Promoter B a bunch of money to to be part of the event. That sounds good, but if you have been following us for any length of time you know that we don't always do what's “typical” here at ICI/PRO.
So when Chuck Cali from Zoning Fitness offered to become a sponsor of this year's conference I said; “only if your sponsorship will add value to the Instructors who attend!”
Chuck's response was “how about if we give the next 75 Instructors* who register a free $80.00 Blink Heart Rate Monitor?”
I love my Blink and see it as an excellent choice for the Club Athletes we teach each week. It's the perfect companion to the 2 Threshold / 3 Zone Heart Rate system we have been talking about.
I have officially designated this as ICI/PRO Conference Registration Week!
Why this week?
Because when I looked at registrations from last year, I see that the 7 days that fell 13 weeks before the conference had the highest percentage of new registrations, besides the opening week.
Amy and I can't believe that our “Baby” Carly is all grown up! We spent yesterday afternoon trying to decide which of these pictures would make the cut as her Senior yearbook photo.
In case you're wondering she looks most like my mother. If you ask her where she got that great hair, she'll say from her daddy. I just wish she hadn't taken all of it 🙁
