As we get ready to head in 2021, I think it's safe to say that 2020 was an epic failure across the board.

Now it's time to look towards the future and for all of us who struggled this year, it's time to shake that sh*t off and make this year monumentally better.

In November, we started the 75 Hard Challenge in our Inner Circle program and it's been an amazing journey so far. We have just a few weeks left and the men who started are absolutely crushing it.

We've had guys lose 30 pounds, drop into size 32 jeans for the first time in decades, build strength and endurance like they haven't felt in years, and finally feel like they are in control of their health and life.

This has been such a game changing experience that we're starting a new wave of challengers on January 1. If you missed the first go round, do not miss this one.

Here's what you'll be doing for 75 days:

1. Working out twice a day, each for at least 45 minutes. One workout MUST be outside, rain or shine.

2. Following a healthy diet with zero cheats and no alcohol.

3. Drinking one gallon of water.

4. Reading 10+ pages of non-fiction.

5. Taking a progress photo.

Failure to meet any one of these on any given day will result in restarting your challenge from day 1.

It's hard but that's the point. We are ALL so full of excuses and it's too easy to cash it in and skip that workout or eat that McDonald's burger and it has to stop.

It has to stop if you want to change your body, your habits, your lifestyle, and ultimately, your life.

This is a challenge that will get you insanely consistent with healthy habits and you will see results.

We do this inside our private group for the added benefits of accountability (which is huge), coaching, and support. And it helps a tremendous amount to have these things because there will be many times when you want to quit.

I'm inviting you to join us and you have until January 1 to decide whether you'll take this on with our band of brothers.

I seriously hope you do.

114 - We Only Get One Shot At This

As I get ready to head into surgery to remove the tumor in my arm, I'm thinking of all the things I'd rather be doing. I think of all that I haven't done, haven't seen and haven't accomplished.

And I'm thinking of my daughters; my world.

I suppose it's natural to be worried heading into something like this and this marks the second surgery I'm having for something called PVNS, which is a tumor that forms around joints and tendons.

In my case, it's my right elbow and from what I remember from my surgery in 2015, it's damn painful and the recovery period is months long.

Not exactly ideal for someone who makes a living exercising, but there are no other alternatives to surgery for this. I'm a little freaked out, but with all that's going on in the world, it could be worse.

Much worse. People are dying left and right from COVID and so many other things and I have to do my best to be thankful that other than this tumor, I'm pretty healthy right now.

I share this with you today as a reminder to be grateful for what you have. We honestly never know when our last day will come and it's up to us to make sure we're living the lives we deserve.

For us and for our families.

We can't control some things but most of it we can. We can control what we eat, how much we move, how we take care of our emotional health, how we spend our time, who we spend our time with, and whether of not we choose to be happy.

We only get one shot at this life. Make today count, my friend.

116 - Start Where You're At, But Start

Now that a new year is here, you might be ready to finally make a change to your health and fitness, millions of men do.

And it's easy to get overwhelmed by the sheer amount of conflicting advice out there and it seems that every "expert" has the "best" solution to your fat loss goal.

I recorded this show with the fitness newbie in mind. Maybe you've taken the last decade or two off from exercise or maybe it's really never been a part of your life.

And maybe you've decided that 2021 is going to be your year; the year you reclaim your body and dump the gelatinous mush you've been staring at for far too long.

And I'm with you. I want you to make a change. I want you to live a long, healthy life. You have kids. You have family. You have a ton to live for.

And in my show today, I share my personal story of how I started with nothing in my business and how I had to make the decision to change direction and start over from scratch. I share this because while I'm not starting fresh with my health and fitness, I understand what it takes to start something with a very long uphill climb ahead of you.

My goal is to get you to start where you're at. I don't care if you can't do a single pushup or walk up a flight of stairs without getting winded, I want you to start.
