I would like to take the time out to talk about a cause that I am close to.

In the past five years I have lost both of my uncles to cancer and also many other relatives and colleagues. In both cases there was not much hope when they found out about it as had developed so far. There are many that have survived though, and that is because of the reserch and funding for it, that has brought new technology and ways to fight it.

One of the people that I look up to that has survived two bouts of stage IV cancer is Alwyn Cosgrove. Apart from being one of the top fitness professionals in the world (and he’s Scottish…….more bonus point’s), he is always about paying it forward.

In this case he has got some of the top fitness professionals the world over to write great articles (over 800 pages!) and put it on a CD. Let’s not mention that the information is great and it has a ton of value, but the most important thing is that a 100% of the proceeds go to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

With the research being funded maybe there will be a cure or more effective treatments and your loved one’s can have a better chance.

In memory of my uncle Milan and my uncle Joze
