🤔 EP051 - If you’re an entrepreneur with the goal of disrupting an entire industry because you’re tired of seeing people suffer from the bullshit advice they get from the so-called gurus, what is the unseen war we must wage and win over and over again to avoid taking our dreams to the grave with us?
“Success is not a goal to reach or a finish line to cross. It is a system to improve, an endless process to refine.” - James Clear
🎙️ In today’s PodWod, we be crushing our PURPOSE Health & Fitness.
FACT - One of the things that really sucks about losing weight is the longer you wait to do it the harder it is to get started. On top of that, there’s the obvious downfall of the amount of weight you put on increasing in proportion to the time you waste deciding to take action.
When it comes to getting our message out there and doing what we love not only for profit but just as importantly for Purpose, the same rule applies. The longer you put shit off out of fear of failure the more your failure compounds, and one day you’ll wake up and realize that the work you have to do is substantially more than the work you should have done.

The Heaviest Weight Most Men Will Ever Lift (But It Does Get Lighter)
🤔 EP050 - If you’re the type of guy who when faced with the reality that you need to make some changes, you say to yourself, “I just need to do better”, and yet you’ve been saying that for years and not much has actually gotten better, what is the very first and hardest step you need to take before you can ever have a hope in hell of changing that which you desperately want and need to change in your life?
“You do control the thoughts that follow an emotion, and you have a great deal of say in how you react to an emotion - as long as you are aware of it.” - Travis Bradberry
🎙️ In today’s PodWod, we be crushing our EMOTIONAL Health & Fitness.
FACT - There is one thing that drives me crazier than anything when I am teaching a group fitness class - when people refuse to listen to my instructions. Specifically, I have people who need to be dialing shit down but they refuse to listen, insist on playing at an intensity level way beyond what they are capable of only to quit early on the workout, or even worse, complain that it was too hard and never come back.
Both inside and outside of the gym, unless and until we are honest with ourselves about where we’re at, when we need to dial it up and when we need to dial it back, and most importantly when we need help doing both, we're going to remain stranded on the lonely island of desperation wondering how the fuck we are ever going to get home to the truth of who we are.

The Best Weight Loss Exercise Nobody Seems to Be Talking About
🤔 EP052 - If you’re one of the millions of people who say to themselves, “I need to do better” when it comes to your fitness, nutrition, or both because what you see on the scale and in the mirror makes you cringe a little, what is the single best exercise for shedding fat and building muscle so you can look, feel, and perform your best over the long term that I’ve never seen anyone doing at the gym?
“When I talk about skepticism it’s not just questioning everything that comes AT you it’s questioning everything that comes FROM you - meaning we all have long-held beliefs, and they may be incorrect.” - Philip Pape, The Wits & Weights Podcast
🎙️ In today’s PodWod, we be crushing our PHYSICAL Health & Fitness.
FACT - One thing that breaks my heart as much as anything is seeing members in the gym that I haven’t seen for months or years who have totally fallen off the wagon. They’ve put on a ton of weight, and when I talk to them the shame they feel is palpable.
What sucks even more is that when I hear them say, “I just need to do better.”, a part of me dies inside because I know that like most people, they’re going to continue to fail because they haven’t yet realized that they are not the problem. They keep failing because they keep using the same approach, and we all know the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.
