Remember, no one is at 💯 all the time. Socials mainly show the good work.

Key is just showing up and aiming for being consistent 70/80% of the time.

That includes fuelling the right way.

Know what works for you...

Anyone can make creatine taste like sweets. That's the easy part.⁠
⁠
The hard part is what goes in instead. Ours runs on 2500mg liposomal beetroot, zero sugar, zero apology.⁠
⁠
Not dessert. Fuel.⁠

Somewhere along the way the goal changed.
Not bigger lifts. Not five sessions a week.
Just feeling good in the body you train.
More mobility. More agility. Weights when it makes sense, not because the ego says so.
Turns out that outweighs everything.

We got asked why prices went up. So we answered it on camera instead of hiding it in an FAQ.

No investors. No multinational budget. Just honest maths.

Belief gets you through one more rep. A system gets you through the next ten years.

Both work. But only one of them needs someone standing over you.

The slap on the chest, the hype, the push, that's borrowed belief. It works in the moment because someone else is holding it for you. The problem is what happens when they're not in the room.

Owning your core is the opposite. It's quiet. It's knowing how your body responds, what happens when you go too hard, what happens when you stop. It's not waiting to be told what to do.

Most people want to be told. That's the harder thing to change.

Recovery for athletes is key.

Functional bone broth protein keeps it real.

Less bloat, repairs the gut lining and packed with collagen for your hair, skin and nails.

Forget the science for a second. There's a simpler test.

Would you give it to your mum. Would you give it to your sister. Would you give it to your wife or your closest friend.

If the answer isn't a clean yes, it shouldn't be on a shelf.

That's the standard everything at FUNCTNL gets held to. Not a marketing line, just the only honest filter I trust.

And if I learn something tomorrow that changes how I think about a product, I'll change it. That's the job.

Not the full HYROX but a team competition. 24 teams. 3 per team. One goal. Work hard.

Amazing set up by @b3yond.oman and the coaches @nicolas.vas__ for showing us the right techniques in the training build up.

First time for this and many more to come 🙏🏽

The first thing he told me was to stop taking my protein shake.

Not switch brands. Not try his. Just stop.

The bloating, the water retention, the back pain. None of it was random.

Sympathetic nervous system pinned high. Poor sleep. Poor hydration. Then 40g of protein dumped into a body with no system to process it.

You can't out-train that. You can't out-discipline it either.

Fix the system. Then add the inputs.

Crashing mid-session isn't a fitness problem. It's a blood flow problem.

Caffeine masks it. Doesn't fix it.

The Performer is built differently. Liposomal beetroot for nitric oxide and blood flow. Creatine for output. Five electrolytes for hydration that holds.

Pre. Intra. Post. One sachet.

Stop running on empty. Keep it functional.

Order the Performer today. Link jn bio.
