I tweeted that the other day and got a pretty good response to it, so I thought I’d share it on the website, too. The exercises I do in the gym, I’ve done literally thousands and thousands of reps of. You guys see it all the time — squats, deadlifts, bench press, and a whole […]
Eating clean, whole foods are the best nutritional approach to overall health. That’s a pretty obvious statement, I know. But for whatever reason, our society consumes the opposite on a far too regular basis, in my opinion. Now, I know I don’t need to school you guys on why processed foods are bad. At this […]
Week 2 of cutting is in the books, and over the past week I was presented with a relatively large hurdle to work through: elevated stress. Stress is a dangerous thing. I think we all know that. But when attempting to diet down while balancing this business, my full-time job, grad school twice a week, […]
Week 1 of dieting is in the books! I’ve already learned a lot about myself and gotten clues as to how this process will evolve. I’m excited for this entire 2019 cut! First off, I’m feeling good. Reducing my food intake and focusing on self control has been a challenge, but it’s one where I’m […]

We’ve been told for years that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Eat your Wheaties so you’ll be energized and ready to take on the day! While I acknowledge there are tons of benefits to eating breakfast in the morning (I almost always do), there can also be a lot of positives […]
“I’m definitely pleased with the progress we made from the goals that were set at the beginning. I think I have the tools now to put together my own scaled down strength program that fits in with the other elements of my fitness. I feel like I’ve learned a lot about the periodization and rep […]
So the time has come to drop some weight, and I gotta tell you I couldn’t be more ready or excited! It’s been a long 18 months of bulking and my body and my mind are ready for a new challenge. The bulk was a success, as I slowly added muscle, weight, and strength. My […]
We’re off and running! My 2019 cut begins this week, and with it comes brand new goals. I’ll be documenting my plans, my strategies, and how things progress on a week-to-week basis to document this journey and hopefully provide you with some tips and takeaways. The last time I did a full-on cut, I set […]
