What I’m working for…
I want to build a successful business, help more people and create more freedom for myself and my family. I also want to enjoy the life I’m working my ass off to build.

Be a dad who shows up. Be a present, supportive partner. Continue growing as a coach and as a man. Make time for the woods, hot rods and the people I love.

It’s easy to get caught up in what’s next. Im learning to appreciate what’s already here and give it the time and attention it deserves….
I’m still building. Im still learning. I will always be a student and im so fucking grateful for all of it…

Building @barbell_88 has taught me a lot more than just how to run a gym.

I’ve learned to start before I feel ready. To show up on the days when nobody sees the work. To take care of the people who trust me with their goals. And to admit when I still have something to learn.

There have been long days, mistakes, and plenty of moments where I’ve had to figure shit out as I go… But now I get to walk into a place we’ve built and watch people become stronger in and out of the gym…. Trust me, I don’t take that lightly.

I’m proud of what we’re building and I’m still just getting started it.

If you’re building something of your own, what’s one lesson it’s taught you?

Been thinking a lot lately about how fucking lucky I am to get to do this for a living.
These are just some random pictures and videos from classes and clients this week, but looking through them made me pretty damn grateful.
People show up here after long days at work, before work, tired, stressed, dealing with shit I probably don’t even know about… and they’re still willing to come through the door and put the work in.
I get a front row seat to watch people get stronger, healthier and more confident and do things they didn’t think they could do. To me, that’s pretty fucking cool.

So to everybody who trains with me or has trusted me to be even a small part of their journey, THANK YOU!

I know you guys pay me to coach you 😂 but I hope you know how much you guys have given me in return.

I fucking love what I do and I don’t take any of you for granted.

Proud of each and every single one of you. ❤️👊🏼💪🏼 by @a_aureliano88

Hard to believe we’re already 8 weeks into The Standard Project.
When I first came up with the idea for this I really didn’t know exactly what it was going to turn into. I knew what I wanted out of it and I knew I wanted it to be about a lot more than just working out and losing weight, but actually watching it come together over these last 8 weeks has been pretty fucking awesome.

I’m seriously so proud of these guys. Obviously I’ve seen physical changes. Guys are losing weight, getting stronger, moving better and doing things they couldn’t do when we started. But honestly that’s probably not even the part I’m most proud of.

It’s watching their habits change. Watching guys show up for each other. Seeing them train together outside of our sessions, check in on each other, talk about shit they probably wouldn’t normally talk about.

We still have 4 weeks left and we’re definitely not done yet but this first group has already shown me that I want to keep building this.

So with that being said… there WILL be another Standard Project group.
I’m thinking we kick the next one off the Monday after Thanksgiving.

I love the idea of starting then because everyone always waits until January 1st to decide they’re going to change their life. Why wait? We can spend December putting the work in and go into the new year already with a ton of momentum behind us.

I’m not opening applications yet. I just wanted to put it out there because I’ve had people asking me if I’m going to run it again.
If you’ve been following along and watching what we’re doing and you’ve thought to yourself that maybe this is something you need in your life, just shoot me a message. We can talk about it.
For now though, my focus is on finishing these last 4 weeks with the boys and finishing this thing the same way we started it.

Proud of you guys. Let’s fucking finish strong. 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Thank You, God. 🙏
Thank You for another morning.
Thank You for this body and the ability to move it.
For legs that carry me.
For lungs that breathe.
For the strength to train.
For my health.
For the places I get to see.
For the people I get to share this life with.
And for another day to keep becoming the man I’m supposed to be.
My health is a gift. My body is a gift. Another day is a gift.

Thank You for another day. ❤️🙏 by @a_aureliano88

Vacation with friends who are down for 5AM workouts….
Even got the next generation involved. ❤️💪🏼

It’s so important to choose your circle wisely, to surround yourself with like minded individuals and with people who are willing to not only push you to become better but to invest in themselves in the process… @thespeedytradesman so proud of you and so happy I got to spend a few days with you and Charlotte. ❤️❤️ taken in Lake George, New York by @a_aureliano88

30 → 100.

During Week 1 of The Standard Project, one of our guys was able to get through about 30 jumping jacks before he needed a break….

This morning, during Week 5, he hit 100 straight!!
And when he finished, you could see how fucking proud he was of himself. So was I….

Is doing 100 jumping jacks going to sound like some massive accomplishment to everybody?

Probably not. But that’s not the point.. It was a huge W to him.

That’s what progress looks like. Sometimes it’s weight lost or strength gained. Sometimes it’s doing something today that you couldn’t do five weeks ago. And sometimes it’s simply realizing you’re capable of more than you thought you were.

We’re five weeks into this thing, and watching these guys continue to push themselves and each other has been one of the best parts of building The Standard Project. We still have a lot of work ahead but we’re heading into next week with a ton of momentum…

5 down. 7 to go. Proud of you boys!! 💪🏼💪🏼
