1 month worked at fresh direct, first legit job ever. Per diem only, minimum wage.Had people looking at me like a lame that couldn’t keep a job.

2 years on public assistance while trying to go to college. My manhood was tried and disrespected, no one took me serious.

6 years worked at a drug rehab center that I HATED! Smoked and drank multiple times weekly. Fattest I’ve ever been. Ridiculed by co workers and my relationships tarnished . $10,000 a year.

2 years on the gym floor. Laughed at and ridiculed daily due to being the “fluffy” trainer. Questioned myself everyday if this was the right choice. Had someone suggest that I find a “real job”. Making less than my last job.

4 years total being a full time trainer. Have helped hundreds of people, built numerous connections and have obtained referrals. First time clearing 6 figures.

Started first company for private training. Most of it through word of mouth. First year made barely 4 figures. Last year made over 5 figures.

Don’t stop.

If you’re in NYC and would like to work with me, send me a message with the word “coaching” and I’ll get back to you within 24 hours.

DON’T GET MAD. GET BETTER.

They doubted you? Get better.
They overlooked you? Get better.
You failed? Get better.
You didn’t get the result you wanted? Get better.

Stop wasting energy on what you can’t control.
Take the frustration.
Take the criticism.
Take the setbacks.
Then turn all of it into fuel.

You don’t need revenge.
You need progress.

Train harder.
Think smarter.
Move differently.
Become undeniable.
Don’t get mad. Get better.

YOUR PHYSIQUE IS YOUR RESUME.

You can talk about discipline.
You can talk about consistency.
You can talk about how badly you want it.

But your physique shows the receipts.

Every workout.
Every meal.
Every sacrifice.
Every day you chose discipline over excuses.

Your body doesn’t lie.

Build a physique that speaks before you do.

ZERCHER SQUATS: THE UNDERUSED LEG BUILDER 🔥

Want a squat variation that challenges more than just your legs?

The Zercher squat loads the bar in the crooks of your elbows, forcing your entire body to work together.

Benefits:
🏋️ Builds quads, glutes & hamstrings
💪 Strengthens the upper back and core
🔥 Demands serious bracing and stability
🎯 Reinforces an upright torso
🧱 Builds functional strength for lifting and carrying
⚡ Challenges your grip and upper-body endurance

The Zercher squat isn’t comfortable—and that’s exactly why it’s valuable.

Don’t just train to move weight. Train to become harder to break.

YOUR BODY NEEDS MORE THAN JUST CALORIES.

A well-balanced meal gives your body the fuel it needs to perform, recover, and stay healthy.

🥩 Protein — supports muscle growth and recovery
🍚 Carbohydrates — provide energy for training and daily activity
🥑 Healthy fats — support hormones, brain health, and overall function
🥦 Fruits & vegetables — provide fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants
💧 Water — keeps hydration and performance on track

You don’t need a perfect diet. You need a consistent, balanced one.

Fuel your body. Train hard. Recover well. Repeat. 💪

37 pounds down. 🔥

This isn’t just about the number on the scale. It’s about discipline, consistency, and refusing to quit when progress feels slow.

Every workout. Every meal. Every decision to keep going added up.

37 lbs lost. A stronger version of me gained.

And I’m not done yet. 💪🔥

Keep showing up. The results will follow.

🔥 RING FLIES ARE NOT FOR THE WEAK.

No machine is stabilizing the weight.
No bench is supporting you.
No fixed handles are keeping you on track.

Just you, the rings, and gravity. ⚔️

Ring flies force your chest, shoulders, arms, and core to fight for control through every inch of the movement.

💀 WHY THEY’RE BRUTAL:
• 💪 Massive chest tension
• 🧠 Elite body control and stability
• 🔥 Serious core engagement
• 🎯 Independent-arm strength
• 🤸 Stronger shoulders and supporting muscles
• 📈 Builds strength you can actually feel

But don’t confuse hard with reckless.

Control the descent.
Own the bottom position.
Squeeze your chest to bring the rings back together.

Earn the depth. Earn the reps. Earn the strength.

When the rings start shaking, that’s not the time to quit.

THAT’S THE WORK. 🔥💀

Don’t stop! If you can’t run, walk! If you can’t walk, crawl! Just whatever you do, don’t stop! In everything that you do, if you keep showing up and being 1% better than the day before, I promise you progress will come.
