SGT Peterson RSSThe concept I call ‘the rule of three’ was inspired by some of my military leaders of the past. A few of the E-8’s (aka Master Sergeants) have two or three rules listed on plaques on their desks. One of my older, Master Sergeant (SGM) leaders has two specific rules. SGM Cullen’s two rules are [...]
Today’s blog post is about leaders and managers and how they differ. The main difference between the two is that leaders inspire people and managers make people do things. That’s the biggest fundamental difference. Leaders stand up for what they believe in even when it’s politically unpopular or it could cause them harm. People follow [...]
Why is this important to you, a person who reads SGT Peterson’s blog? Bear with me it will make sense at the end. Why is it that people follow other people? Why do some people that are in charge make other people do things? Why do some people have the ability to get people to [...]

Our last donation we gave away a certificate for complimentary boot camp to local participants of the Minneapolis event called Babes [...]
This post is inspired by a person that recently started working out with us at SGT Peterson’s. By no means is this the first or last person that will forget to listen to what we say about the intro workout. They then realize why we tell them to drink plenty of water beforehand, get plenty [...]
The reason for this article is simply for men and women to feel understood when it comes to their emotions and WHY people exercise. Emotions can drive people to react in ways that outsiders see as irrational. As much as men want to pretend they don’t make decisions that are emotional based, I know it’s [...]
The purpose of this post is to show people with injuries the options they have to workout. We will go over various types of exercises and different techniques one can use to stay moving when you are injured or plagued with disease such as arthritis. With that said let’s start with a few types of [...]
Since we believe in inspiring people to lead by example and leave no one behind, we want to let the first 100 innovative Boot Campers & PTers how important they are to the movement. The first 100 are a very select group of people in any organization. Long ago SGT Peterson’s reached out and inspired its first [...]
