I told myself I wouldn’t get emotional until the LT Games arena was reset and ready to go for my Monday 6am class. So… here we go.

30-year-old me would’ve been blown away by this past weekend.
20-year-old me would’ve dreamed of being part of something like this.
10-year-old me would’ve been asking for autographs from the people I got to have casual conversations with.

So much gratitude for the people who made this real:

🏋️‍♂️ @lifetime.ltgames @martinastas @kristinemurphyfritz – thank you for trusting me with this project.
🎨 @jfitfeldman – the brains, sweat, and tears behind the look and feel of LT Games.
⚖️ @konnor.fleming – raising the bar for judges certification in the entire fitness space.
✌️ @youngjor31 – for every “sure” and every shrug that somehow made things happen.
💡 @bodybyjuancho – the insight, knowledge, and heart behind it all. Without HybridXT, there’s no LT Games.
📱 @social.media.mel – for bringing the Games to life online.
☀️ @lauren.cookle25 – positivity even in the chaos.
📋 @alexdegracia – managing from Florida, then grinding all weekend in person.
💻 JC – for answering every wild TEAMS message (even the 4th change of mind).
🔥 @amphillips6 @mimdvo @timbrazel + the Partnerships/Marketing team – you brought the heat.
🎥 @hybridfitnessmedia – for saying “this looks cool” and diving in head first.
🎤 @daniellegertner – the perfect voice to bring it all to life.

❤️ @clearpathspeechtherapy – my wife, my balance, my biggest supporter. Thank you for holding it down at home and always pushing me to dream even bigger. (Follow her for sleep tips so you can recover better for LT Games 🤓)

🏟️ To the @lifetime.targetcenter staff + members – thank you for eventually 😅 welcoming me with open arms and giving LT Games such a special home.
👕 To @tenthousand.cc – for believing in what was once just a few ideas on scratch paper.
👟 To @nobull – for keeping everyone fresh.

And to the hundreds of others who helped make this weekend what it was — thank you.

Athletes, watching you take on that @torquefitnessusa course was unreal. You left it all out there, and we felt it. 💪🔥

Good coaching isn’t about being the loudest person in the room.

It’s about knowing when to speak, when to listen, when to ask a question, and when to simply let the athlete work.

Watch first.
Ask before you tell.
Give one cue at a time.
And most importantly—coach the athlete, not just the movement.

The goal isn’t to show everyone how much you know or be the star of the show.

The goal is to make the person in front of you better.

That’s coaching.

What a weekend in Dallas. 🔥

Big thanks to the @lifetime.ltgames team and @lifetime.frisco for putting together an incredible event.

This was the third LT Games EVER, and it’s exciting to see this competition continue to grow.

For my hybrid athletes, runners, lifters, and anyone who just likes testing themselves — this one is worth checking out. 💪🏾

The format is tough: running, rowing, SkiErg, deadlifts, wall balls, box work, shoulder-to-overhead, D-ball movements, burpees and more.

You have six minutes at each station, and on several of the strength stations, you can choose your weight and rep strategy. That means this is just as much about pacing and decision-making as it is fitness.

Definitely one of the harder workouts I’ve done, and I already know there are places I’d attack differently next time.

I’ll be back. 👀

For now, check out some of the footage from the weekend. 🎥

More content coming.

Follow @lifetime.ltgames to see where the event goes next, and follow along here for more from Dallas.

Happy birthday to the woman who has a business, a thriving Instagram, two kids, and somehow still has time to tell me what I’m doing wrong.

You’re the best mom, my favorite person, and the light of my life. I’m ridiculously lucky to call you my wife.

Love you, Meg. ❤️ by @semifitwes

Fitness coaching is basically professional theft. 👮‍♀️

Steal the cues.
Steal the language.
Steal the way someone controls a room.
Steal the little nuances that make people feel seen, motivated and coached.

But also… TAKE CLASSES.

Because being a participant can teach you just as much.

Sometimes you leave a class thinking, “That was incredible. I’m stealing that.”

And sometimes you leave thinking, “Cool. That didn’t work.”

Both are valuable.

The best coaches I know are constantly watching, learning, experimenting, stealing ideas and IMPLEMENTING THEM.

Not to become someone else.

To build a better version of their own coaching.

Be a student of coaching. Always.

Ok ok. You ate a little extra food?

Congratulations. You’re now fueling tomorrow’s workout.

You don’t need to punish yourself with 45 minutes on the StairMaster because you had dessert.

You don’t need to “earn” your next meal.

And you definitely don’t need to turn your workout into an apology letter to your calorie tracker.

Eat the food. Use the fuel. Train hard.

Your body doesn’t care that the extra carbs came from a cookie instead of a rice cake.

It just says:
“OH SHIT, WE GOT GAS. LET’S GO.” ⛽️
