			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>YEAH BABY! October 30th, 2010 will be my first bodybuilding show held through the <a href="http://www.idfa.ca/">International Drug Free Athletics (IDFA)</a> bodybuilding association. You&#8217;ll be able to watch my progress here at ryansleigh.com, I&#8217;ll be posting pics all the time so check me out! You&#8217;ll be able to watch me gain a couple hard earned pounds of lean bodymass in the next coming months and nearing the show you&#8217;ll be able to watch me get absolutely shredded!!</p>
<p>I&#8217;m so excited for this, it&#8217;s something I&#8217;ve always wanted to do and just never did it. If you knew me in high school I was always pumping iron and I wanted to do a bodybuilding show. Well now I&#8217;m doing it! So join me, bookmark this shit and watch me get ripped and win my weight class, maybe even more!</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s some new pics&#8230; Feel free to comment, tell me what you think or throw some inspiration my way!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey all!</p>
<p>Today is another big and fantastic day at <a href="http://www.ryansleigh.com">RyanSleigh.com</a>! Today marks the first time RyanSleigh.com has attracted 100 unique visitors within a month time frame! I want to say a BIG thank you to everyone who has come here, who keeps coming, and anyone and everyone who enjoys what they find here! That&#8217;s the whole point!</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve added a &#8220;Blogroll&#8221; which is pretty much a link directory to the left hand side menu. I&#8217;ll be adding some pretty sick links there over time that I feel has something to offer, or is an excellent site. To start I&#8217;ve added three links off the top of my head that I would love to share.</p>
<p>First off there is the <a href="http://www.coryholly.com">Cory Holly Institute (CHI)</a> which literally speaks for itself! Check that site out and get educated! </p>
<p>Second is <a href="http://www.oasispleasuregarden.ca">OasisPleasureGarden.ca</a> which is an online adult store based here in Ottawa, ON run by my good friend and client Chantal Bergeron! </p>
<p>Third is <a href="http://www.teamcsna.com">TeamCSNA.com</a> which are the official web forums for the Certified Sports Nutrition Advisor (CSNA) Education Program offered by the Cory Holly Institute. <a href="http://www.teamcsna.com">TeamCSNA.com</a> is also something I&#8217;ve setup personally and is run from the RyanSleigh.com web servers! These forums are new and both CHI and I are excited to watch them grow and become more integrated into the CHI and CSNA foundation.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s it for now folks! Stay tuned, there will be a lot of exclusive content coming in the month of October!</p>
<p>Thanks again and live well!</p>
<p>Ryan</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sometimes I feel so overwhelmed by it all&#8230;</p>
<p>The complexity by which it shapes itself. How things have come to be. You and me and a million other billion things and animals and trees and plants and  god knows what else.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s just so much of it all. Where did all this  complexity come from? It&#8217;s so ingenious. I ponder and it dawns upon me that I may never actually discover the answer to this question within my  life time.</p>
<p>The simple sound of music.</p>
<p>The beauty of a single cell multiplying  against the chaos of its environment to become itself to make function  and beauty from nothing.</p>
<p>At this moment, I&#8217;m really thanking god I&#8217;m alive. I&#8217;m thanking that  very series of events that brought me here today so I could be me, so I  can continue the very path that brought me here in the first place.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t think you could ever not lose yourself in the miracle of living,  because it just never stops getting better. <strong>At least when you live it  that way</strong>.</p>
