The entire function of being healthy is to ultimately live an interesting life. No one cares about your protein shakes, pre-workout, recovery scores & the extra inch you added to your biceps Being healthy should allow you to explore, travel & squeeze the zest out of life.

What could the US look like if, instead of trying to get "off the grid," everyone tried contributing to the grid?

Sprint more. It’s anabolic. Acceleration: • 1 min rest for every 10m distance. • 100-200m total covered in session. Quality > Quantity. ‘Suicides’ with minimal rest are not high quality sessions.

A lot of people who aren’t lean and fit think that if they don’t have a serious health issue now, then they must be healthy enough. But the truth is, the further you are from being lean and fit, the higher the risk something could go wrong later. Don’t wait. Take action now.

Imagine having the calendar on your desktop screen in the same spot for at least 30 yrs. You can pop it open to see a date and close it quite easily. And then one day in 2025 an update arrives, and you no longer have access to this feature. This is why everyone hates Microsoft.

Most nutrition advice wasn’t built for people like us. It assumes: Set meal times Minimal stress Plenty of sleep Unlimited tracking Try that during a 10-hour shift. Real-world fuel = simple, powerful, flexible. Hydration. Protein. Produce. Execution.

All nutrients contain calories. Not all calories contain nutrients.

The average American eats and lives like they’re trying to die by 65, and then their family blames "genetics" when they do.

Nothing like some 5:30 am kettlebell work after a 3 am fire call.

You don’t need perfect macros or a fancy gym. You need a system that respects your reality. That’s what I’m building — one shift, one meal, one rep at a time. Follow for tools, systems, and honest fuel. #ShiftAthlete #SystemsOverWillpower

Want to start with something small but real? Here’s my 5-shift-meal guide — built from field experience, not theory. Real food. No calorie math. 5 minutes or less. Fuel that works when life doesn’t. https://t.co/CCSn0py9Q3
