Read this email till the end to drop all excuses when it comes to transforming your health. Story time. 3 years ago my doctor gave me some news that changed my life. As he looked over my chart, I noticed he was looking at the numbers longer than usual. This wasn't good... He looked up at me and said, "Your blood pressure is much higher than we would like. If we're not able to get this down, you're going to have to start taking blood pressure medication..." I could feel the pit in my stomach...

Yesterday I took my son to the park to give my wife some time to relax and unwind. As my son was playing, I noticed a father walking up to me. "Hey I recognize you from the gym" As he said that, another father watching his kid said "I go there too! I noticed the two of you as well". For the next 20 minutes we started talking about the struggle and benefits of balancing our health, fitness, and family. You could tell these guys were really trying to make their health a priority. This...

This email will be short but will hit you harder than 3 cups of coffee after a bad night of sleep. Life can be broken down into 2 choices: 1) Thinking 2) Doing The majority of people spend too much time thinking. They think about going to the gym. They think about finding another job. They think about having a child. But the problem with thinking is that doing too much of it is a great way to guarantee you never take action. The more you think about doing something the more excuses you come...

This email will take 3.5 minutes to finish but if you read it to the end you'll learn the secret to a perfect night of sleep. As a parent to a toddler, getting a good night of sleep is crucial. If my son is able to sleep through the night (which has been rare until recently) it only means he will be that more energized during the day. Which means if I want to keep up with him... And get my work done... And grow my business... And show up for my wife... Then I need to keep my energy levels as...

If you're reading this email then you're one of the few people in the world who actually want to make something of your life. You want to be healthier. You want to perform better. You want to achieve more. The only way to maximize your life's potential is to maximize your daily energy. Energy is your life force. It's what keeps you focused and motivated. Without it, you'll float through life aimlessly, dreaming of having more instead of achieving it. Energy is your greatest currency. So how...

If you sit at a desk for more than 5 hours a day then you need to read this email until the end. Getting older means your body is more at risk for joint and muscle pain. Whether it's knee pain, shoulder pain, or hip pain Nothing compares to back pain. Back pain is the sort of pain that never goes away, and is involved every movement you make. This is especially true for lower back pain. 28% of Americans reported having lower back pain. That's over 90 MILLION people with lower back pain, just...

If you've ever tried transforming your body then you've spent time searching the internet for the best diet. Google "weight loss diet" and you'll come across endless "golden tickets" for losing weight quickly. Whether it's Keto, Adkins, Weight Watchers, or Carnivore All great diets focus on 2 principles. This is what I call the KISS Diet (Keep it Simple Stupid). This KISS Diet is so simple a caveman could follow it (they did),and only requires you to follow 2 rules: 1) Increasing Protein...

Being a dad requires boundless energy. My wife is currently pregnant with our second child, which means she is in the throws of constant fatigue, nausea, and numerous other symptoms that require her to rest. This means I'm on toddler duty. If you've ever been in this situation (or plan to one day) you understand how much energy it takes to occupy a toddler throughout the day. Well yesterday was the motherload of all doozies for me. We were traveling from a wedding on the east coast, which...

Fall is here, which means bulking season is upon us. Last year was the first time I did a serious bulking session and I came out with incredible results. I was able to go from about 195 lbs to around 210 lbs in a matter of 4 months. A lot of my gains were muscle, but there was also more fat gained than I would have liked. This time I around I've fine tuned my bulking strategy to make sure I'm minimizing the fat I gain and maximizing my muscle gains. If you're tired of being scrawny and week,...
