When you look in the mirror, youโll know what it takes to get from where you are now (Point A) to get to where you want to be (Point B) with more certainty and confidence. It doesnโt matter where you are right now or what your goals are, youโll know what to do.
Then, it will just be a matter of you doing what you know for a long enough period of time. Thatโs a great place to be. Youโll have a better sense of control during the entire process. The most important training, eating, lifestyle, and mindset strategies are all covered.
Youโll know exactly what to do to earn the body you want and, even more importantly, all of the things you DONโT have to do. Youโll know the price youโll have to pay. Thereโs always a price to pay in terms of knowledge and discipline. You have the right set of expectations. Youโll do nothing in excess. Youโll understand how this fitness process really works.

Sometimes, I wasnโt and found out later. Most of the time, I was uncertain. It would always ruin my driving experience even if I found out later on that I was going the right way the entire journey.
Youโll know youโre going in the right direction every mile of your fitness journey because Iโll prepare you for whatโs ahead with your body and your mind. Itโs very hard to stay committed, stay disciplined, and follow through on a consistent basis during the uncertain times that everyone goes through during their fitness journey.

If you ever go through a period of time in the future when you get really busy, distracted, stop training and gain a few pounds, youโll know EXACTLY what to do to get back into shape. It will just be a matter of doing what you know.

If you can't lose the last 10 pounds or so of body fat no matter how hard you work out, it's because of the way you're eating.
Even if you think you're eating well enough and in a calorie deficit, this short video explains why that's not enough to get the job done.

If youโre like most of the men who listen to this podcast, you have accomplished a few things in your life. But, despite those accomplishments and all of the praise you continually get, youโre still not satisfied. You have a lot of talent. Youโre willing to do the hard work.You just know that you have a lot more to achieve in your life. You have a lot of โunfinished businessโ!
In this podcast, I talk about how youโre not alone if you think about all of the things you still havenโt accomplished or experienced in your life yet.
Most older men canโt.
No matter what they say, they canโt.
And, because they canโt, the information you need to hear never gets told.
It goes against the grain.
It gets too much resistance from untrained minds.
So, why bother?
These are just a few of the things that elite, experienced men who workout and look great (and have for a long time) want to tell you, but they know you just wonโt understand.
They know that you are getting the majority of your instruction from undertrained minds. Youโre getting your information from people who worry too much about what other people think. They worry about what the โinternet trollsโ and inexperienced, less knowledgeable fitness experts will say about them.
If you want to get to the next level . . . I mean you REALLY want to get to the next level . . . you need to know what Iโve posted down below.
1. If you are counting your macros, youโre counting your calories too. Youโre just stopping one step short in the arithmetic. If you donโt like the ...
Today after a warm-up I decided to eliminate pyramiding up in weight and just go for my heaviest weight for 8-10 in squats. That was 225/8, 225/6, and 225/7. Then I applied that same method with incline DB 70/11, 70/10, followed by close grip Lat Pulldowns 125/10, 130/10, 140/7. With a bit more rest between sets I hit my 1st rule. My rule is 60 minutes
These could be very simple. You donโt need a lot. In fact, a short list will suffice. It will be helpful to write them down because you need to spend about 30 seconds before you start working out to review those standards.
Like I said, these can be very simple, such as โIโm going to be in and out of the gym in 45 minutes, one hourโ or however long your workout takes.
One of them might be, โIโm not going to look at email, answer my phone or chat with anybody until Iโve completed my workout.โ Another might be, โI had something left in me the last time I worked out; today Iโm going to push harder.โ
The point of these standards is that they set the tone for your workout and they get your mind focused on that tone. At the next level, you donโt walk into the gym, start working out, and hope your focus or motivation kicks in once you get going.
You lift your first weight already in that state.
What makes this a next ...
