Freedom = Order & Truth ✝️

I made 23.

I call it my Jordan Year.

Over the last year, there were no rising or falling moments.

Just times where the standards were met or my actions did not meet the standard.

I never dreamed about my future.

I just watched the people I love either smile or struggle.

And I saw my relationships moving in accordance with that.

I saw the effect of my own weight.

The beginning was framed as order and excellence for a reason.

I am no perfect man.

But I’ve learned that anything that causes confusion and fear
is the world’s way of telling you
to put back in place what is disorderly.

And everything in your life that is not upright and good

Turn it into excellence.

There is nothing to be afraid of.

Only a vision to be had.

When you cloud your vision with the terrors of life, you paralyze yourself.

Let the world throw its darkest of dark at you.

You should want the chaos of the world.

Because when the world comes crashing and the chaos ensues

You’re either a pillar of order or you feed into the chaos

First Individual Competition I’ve ever done is in the books.

I placed 8th out of 16th.

When I first started working out, I told myself, I’ll never do any competitions.

But I’m glad I did this one.

I learned my lessons.

Got to see some strengths, and some weaknesses. Now I know what I need to improve on.

I know what’s possible from the 7 people who placed ahead of me. And I know how much harder I need to train.

It was an overall great experience with a great group of people.

What Happens When You Follow a Real Structure for 90 Days

Gabe was a busy aerospace engineer and a father.
In 90 days he built this transformation through one thing:

— STRUCTURE

Here’s how we structured it:

— 3–4 focused workouts a week.
— Daily macro and calorie targets.
— Weekly progress checks.

A training plan he walked into the gym with and a nutrition plan he walked home with.

When your structure is simple and repeatable, the results stop being random.

If you’re tired of spinning your wheels and want a simple plan to get lean and strong, DM me “SIMPLE” and I’ll show you how to set it up.

Every time you outsource a decision about your life, you weaken your own decision-making process.

It’s always great to hear other people’s opinions.

It’s never great to outsource your decision based on their opinion.

Listen to people. Consider what they have to say. But at the end of the day, make the decision yourself. by @jla_iv

As long as I have the ability to grow and become more.

I’ve made more progress in my life by working alongside people and creating better standards for myself than I ever have working by myself.

5 is better than 1

If everyone brings their best and decides to work together to create the best outcome.

Losing weight doesn’t mean you should feel exhausted the entire time.

If you’ve already lost a good amount of weight, your calories are extremely low, and your energy and training are starting to suffer, continuing to cut your food lower isn’t always the answer.

Sometimes you need to bring your calories back up to maintenance for a period of time, then start another controlled deficit.

The goal shouldn’t just be to make the scale go down.

It should be to get leaner while still having enough energy to work, train, recover, and make consistent progress without burning out.

If you’re trying to lose fat but your energy, training, and nutrition are starting to fall apart, comment MUSCLE and I’ll send you my free Muscle Max Kickstarter Plan to give you a simple structure to follow.

Stop pouring Brawndo on your crops.

When you eat, make sure your calories are actually composed of the macros your body needs for the result you want.

If you’re hitting your calories but still not getting the physique you want, comment MACROS and I’ll show you how to set your targets.

Stop overcomplicating nutrition.

If you have a busy schedule, set yourself up.

Have food already cooked that you can take for lunch throughout the week.

Keep grab-and-go options for when you need a quick snack.

Plan meals you actually enjoy for when you get home.

If you’re struggling to eat protein around your work schedule, comment PROTEIN and I’ll show you the simple protein setup I use: already cooked, grab-and-go, and ready to cook.
