You don’t need perfect days to get results. You just need to stop giving up when life isn’t perfect.
Most folks treat their fitness like a light switch: they’re all in or all out. Honestly, I can relate.
When motivation is high, we go hard.
When life gets messy, we disappear.

That’s not consistency. That’s burnout on repeat.
Here’s the truth: progress isn’t made on the easy days. It’s made on the days you almost quit
and still do something small anyway.
If you can learn to win those days, you’ll never have to start over again.

Here’s what that looks like:
– On low-energy days, shorten your workout instead of skipping it
– When you’re stressed, focus on grabbing protein and water, not calories
– If the day goes sideways, walk for 10 minutes and call it a win

Small effort compounds faster than perfection ever could.

Stop chasing perfect weeks. Chase consistent ones.
Perfect doesn’t get you results. Persistence does.

And if you’re needing a bit more help staying consistent: I’m launching my summer training program for 5 busy millennials who want to lose 10 pounds and feel more energized in 60 days. If that sounds like something that would help, let me know below or shoot me a message!

It’s easy for us to tell ourselves that we don’t have time because it’s a convenient excuse. In fact, it’s one I run into personally every now and then.

This means that I’ve built out systems to carve out my sessions regardless of what phase of life I’m in.

This weekend I had the honor of participating in the first ever after almost 10 years out of the competitive arena. It felt great to get back under the bar and apply what I’ve learned over the years to not just lift hard but lift smart. I had no hopes other than to hit PRs, but a second place finish is more than what I expected because I was just happy to be in the atmosphere of so many amazing people all striving towards the same goal.
This certainly won’t be my last meet, and if anything it’ll reignite the flame that was lit when I first started as a collegiate lifter. I know I can only get better from here while continuing to stay well rounded as an athlete, as a person, and as a coach.

A huge shoutout goes to for lifting alongside me in her very first competition. I’m insanely proud of her hard work, perseverance, and willingness to try this crazy sport I’ve been a part of.
A special thanks to and for supporting me during prep and by my side at the meet. I couldn’t have done this without you!

Results:
Squat: 429lb(PR)
Bench: 269lb(PR)
Deadlift: 507lb(PR)

Believe it or not, we’re just around the corner from hoochie daddy season!

I know Texas didn’t get the memo today, but now’s the time to get on top of your warm weather goals by launching into your spring training arc.

With that being said, here are the top things we’d focus on if you were working with me:

- Keep a good log to track your intake
- Utilize compound movements
- Take in more protein

While these may look simple on the surface, they’ll most likely be the action habits that give you the most bang for your buck.

And if you’re looking for some extra help launching your spring training arc, I’m starting a 60 day kickstarter for a handful of busy millennials who want to get stronger, have more energy, and lose 15 pounds by summertime.

If that sounds like something you’re interested in, let me know below with ‘summertime’ or send me a message!

Once upon a time, not long ago there lived a skinny little kid who lived life slow…

Okay, but seriously.

I owe everything I am today to two things:
- the bold decision to try something new and uncomfortable
- the many coaches and mentors who taught and guided me along the way

My story is my story, but the physical and mental transformations I’ve made across the years have inspired me to pass on the power of transformation through a well rounded strength training protocol.

This means:
- rebuilding strength
- focusing on accountability instead of hand-holding
- structured programming over cookie cutter circuits
- nutrition coaching for sustainable habits

If this sounds like it’s what you’re looking for to spring into your goals this year, let me know below or shoot me a message!

Fun fact: you don’t need “muscle confusion”… you need periodization.

Unfortunately a lot of us still think we need to “confuse” or “shock” our muscles in order to see gains but that’s not how it works.
Your nervous system does need variety, but this needs to be strategically planned on a program long enough to adapt and progress (but not so long that you phase out of adaptation completely and your routine and progress stagnates).

Here’s what to do instead:
- Focus on following the same routine for several weeks
- Make adjustments as necessary if your anatomy or mobility necessitates it
- Change the program with new movements, tempos, rep schemes, implements, etc.
- Take notes on what does or doesn’t work
- Repeat!

I put myself and my clients on a periodized program to maximize results for athleticism, mobility, and body composition.
Typically this revolves around strength training, body building, and stability

Let me know what y’all do to periodize in the comments or shoot me a message if this is all new to you!

Here’s how to close out your 2025!

Believe it or nowt, we are almost 6 weeks away from the new year.
Now is not the time to mail it in, give up, and use the holidays as a convenient excuse.

Here’s what to do instead:

1. Set up a plan that you know you can do for at least the next 60 days
2. Perfection is a trap!! Focus on consistency!
3. Keep it simple: hydration, movement, and good nutrition
4. Establish your non-negotiables!
Ex: at least a 15 minute walk and drink 3 bottles of water every day
5. Rinse and repeat! You don’t get there all at once, you take it one day at a time and stack up your wins

YES, you can still enjoy the foods you love during the holidays!
NO, you can’t let those turn into holiweeks!

Simple daily habits will do so much more than waiting until January 1st to do something.

Let’s do this y’all!

Let me know below what your non-negotiables are!
