Fitness tips I know approaching 50 that I wish I'd known when I was 20: (Bookmark for 30 years of fitness knowledge in 1 post) 1. People underestimate how much fat they have to lose.

I called out a client for half-assing his program. Told him straight up: "You have the opportunity now. Stop wasting it." He didn't get offended. He stepped up. Because deep down, he knew I was right. Sometimes you need someone who cares enough to be honest.

Most men think low testosterone is why they gained weight. That's backwards. Gaining weight lowers your testosterone. Lose the fat and watch your testosterone skyrocket. No injections needed.

After years of low-carb eating, I became diabetic. You don't hear this enough - but it's not rare. So, I tripled my carb intake and reversed my diabetes. Here is exactly what I did. You can do it, too.

You're researching: Peptides NAD IVs Cold plunges Red light therapy Hyperbaric chambers But you haven't: Lost the belly fat Fixed your sleep Hit 10k steps consistently Trained with progressive overload Stop optimizing when you haven't even mastered the basics.

Love this by Dr Julie. You have less time than you think to have the life you want. Stop fking around and start taking action.

Bought flip-flops for a homeless guy in Brazil this morning. His Havaianas were completely destroyed. Felt good to help. Then another homeless guy got jealous and started threatening me. Good deed → immediate punishment. This is why people stop helping.

Men over 40 have different challenges: Less time More stress Work demands Slower recovery Family obligations Lower testosterone Cookie-cutter programs ignore this. My Metabolic Reset Sequence is built specifically for high-performing men 40+. Context matters.

"Eating out is sabotaging my fat loss." No. Not tracking what you eat when you go out is sabotaging your fat loss. You can eat at restaurants and lose weight. You just need to know what you're eating.

Client quote: "I've spent $20K on trainers, diets and supplements over the years. This is the first time I've actually kept the weight off." The difference? I don't just get you lean. I teach you how to STAY lean. That's what separates transformation from yo-yo dieting.

You're not lazy. Your environment is winning. Football season. Business dinners. Travel. Stress eating. These aren't character flaws. They're environmental challenges. Change the environment or keep losing the same battle.

A good coach doesn't just give you a plan. A good coach: Adjusts when you plateau Won't accept your excuses Sees the mistakes you can't see Calls you out when you're slacking Makes quitting harder than continuing You're not buying information. You're buying transformation.

You tried the workout from college. Doesn't work anymore. Why? You're 45. Not 22. Your recovery is different. Your life stress is different. Your hormones are different. You need a program designed for men over 40. Not a program designed for college athletes.

Most programs: "Here's your workout. Good luck." My system: • Weekly check-ins • Weekly coaching calls • Adjustments based on YOUR data • Support when life gets messy This is why my clients actually get results. Accountability beats information.

Progressive overload means: Week 1: Bench press 185lbs x 8 reps Week 2: Bench press 185lbs x 9 reps Week 3: Bench press 185lbs x 10 reps Week 4: Bench press 190lbs x 8 reps Track it. Beat it. Repeat. That's how you build muscle.

You feel like a failure. Despite making $100K+. Despite raising great kids. Despite building a successful business. Because you can't figure out your health. This isn't a character flaw. You just don't have the right system. Let me give you one.

“My weight goes up when I start lifting weights.” That’s because lifting turns the food you eat into muscle. Muscle has weight, so you see the number on the scale goes up. Lifting weights slows weight loss. But it speeds up fat loss. Get it?

Age is not just a number after 40. Inflammation increases. Recovery slows. Injuries heal slower. Joint pain appears. Acknowledge reality. Then train smarter, not like you're 25.

Have you ever tried meditation?

When you pay for coaching: Financial skin in the game + human connection = you actually show up. When it's just you: No financial loss + no one watching = you quit when it gets hard. Coaching isn't for everyone. But if you're curious, it can change your life.
