Was it a shorter event, yes. Was it memorable, yes. Was it a blast and educational, absolutely yes!

It’s hard for me to put into words how incredible, moving, and inspiring this 10th annual event of Athlean X Live has been. The opportunity we had to engage in more meaningful and personal dialogue with Jeff and his team has been powerful. I truly feel so honored and blessed to have been part of this community for over 7 years.

I thank each and every person who came to this event this year. You all are the very reason I continue to train, motivate, and push myself to be better each day that passes.

I will be off social media for a length of time, as I commit my efforts to my passion in the field of health and fitness. I know where I want to go with my path more than ever. It is NOW that I “commit” as that word of wisdom was shared to me by my dear friend and mentor.

I love you all my AX family! If you ever need to reach me, you can reach me other ways you know how. In the meantime, Captain Brian is signing off. 🫡

Got some very exciting things ahead to come about next week! Looking forward to THE 10th Annual Athlean X Live event and I promise to make the 500th post a very special and memorable post in connection with it. I also share some good updates on my end personally. I’m eagerly looking forward to seeing the team and can’t wait to spend time with you all!

Back into the swing of things after dealing with an odd case of laryngitis. This landmine complex whooped my butt real good, but I know going through these challenging workouts is about fortifying my mental toughness and grit when it gets hard. I will never surrender to the challenge and that’s why I’m able to keep moving forward with my goals!

Summer is basically here, and it’s time for me to push more than ever. Be a champion that exhibits a “Never quit mentality”!

Whether you train on a good day or bad day. Through hard times or good times, always strive to push yourself to become better!

Let’s get it!

After listening and watching the latest episode and videos from the Huberman Lab Podcast/Clips, I wanted to attack my biceps with the tips shared in this workout! Definitely felt a stronger biceps contraction taking an offset grip on the dumbbells when curling at a slow and controlled pace. Let’s get it!

Building resilience leads to longevity. That has always been my goal, and it will continue to be!

While it was nice for me to take these 100s for a ride today, what’s more important to me is to take note of my technical breakdown and strength imbalance I have with this exercise. It’s why I think it’s important to use exercises like this that can help me expose that. But all in all, I’m proud of how far I’ve come along with my strength as of late, and I’m definitely looking forward to taking a solid deload next week!

Inspired and moved by one of our very own Captains @felix.sherman to take on this challenge from Joe DeFranco from his recent post. I unintentionally decided to take this to another level by having a 10lb plate on my chest as I do this. You don’t have to do what I did, a yoga block is all that is necessary.

Today was a fun day, because I took the opportunity to test my overall fitness level and see where it is at. While I did pretty good for the most part, there were a couple of areas in which I can improve. Here they are as laid out:

• Single Leg Wall Sit Hold - R: 24 sec, L: 31 sec
• Wall Splat: FAIL (almost had it)
• Hand Release Pushups: 50 (it got questionable towards the end in terms of lockout)
• Side Plank Leg Raise Hold - R: 30 sec, L: 30 sec
• Dead Arm Hang: 2:24
• ‘Old Man’ Test: PASS
• Pullups: 20 reps (but you know I could do more which I have set that recently in the past!)

Good to test myself in these areas, and now armed with this information I can work on the areas I need improvement in!

While I may not have the biggest legs out there, I know that these set of legs allow me to move in an athletic manner that gives me the ability to function well in my day to day life. I take a measure of pride in what I have worked hard to build and continue to build; not just my physique, but also my grit, determination, and discipline that gets me through difficult moments of my life. So this is a reminder for you and I to never quit, and always pick ourselves back up to keep moving forward!

When it comes to making a change, it’s about how much you are willing to take the discomfort to make it happen. The workouts as of late are definitely testing my mental fortitude in this matter, and I’m only getting started!

As time continues to go on, I come to learn the importance of delivering effort in the best way humanly possible more than ever. I’m proud to be at this point of my life, even though I’ve been dealing with unique challenges as of late. In the meantime, I’ll strive to continue to become a version of myself that levels up than who I was before!
