A surprising amount of my coaching has actually become online.

And I think there's a bit of a misunderstanding about what online coaching actually is.

I'm not sitting on a computer watching you work out. 😂

I help you build a training plan around your goals, your schedule, and where you're at.

We check in every week, I keep you accountable, we make adjustments as we go, and if we need to jump on a virtual call, we do.

It's basically having a coach in your corner without needing me standing beside you in the gym.

And I've intentionally kept it pretty accessible — $50 a week.

If that sounds like something that could help you, send a message.

A little look inside how I think about training.
Science-informed. Gym-tested. Individualized.

Do enough. Do it well. Do it consistently.
Minimum Effective Dose.

TODAY’S WORKOUT

KB Sn**ch — 3 × 5/side
Regression: KB Swing
High Front-Foot-Elevated Reverse Lunge — 3 × 6–8/side
Half-Kneeling Landmine Press — 2–3 × 8/side
Chainsaw Row — 2–3 × 8–10/side
Heavy Contralateral Suitcase Hold + Knee Drive — 2 × 20–30 sec/side

Five movements. Everything has a purpose.

There is nothing there just to make the workout longer.

More on MED soon.

Well… this one hit me a little.

We moved Teagan into residence at Ontario Tech today, the first step toward her goal of becoming a chiropractor.

Pretty surreal helping your kid get settled and realizing this is the start of a whole new part of her life.

Excited for her. Proud as hell. Maybe not quite ready for how fast this all goes.

Although let's be real… I'll probably be down there bothering her all the time. 😂

Go make it yours, kiddo. ❤️

Probably should've introduced myself a while ago. 😂

I'm TJ. I coach people.

Different people. Different goals. Different lives.

My job is to figure out what works for you — and help you get there.

Consistency gets talked about like it means being perfect.

It doesn't.

Some weeks I train hard. Some weeks I do the minimum. Some days I feel great. Some days I just get something done.

The trick has always been not disappearing when life gets busy.

Adjust. Do what you can. Keep showing up.

That's been the secret for me for a long time.

One of the best parts about coaching for as long as I have is the people who become a whole lot more than just clients.

Cath has been part of my gym, my training and my life on and off for years.

She works hard, lights up every room she walks into, and somewhere along the way she just became family.

Having her back training with me in the new studio honestly feels like a bit of a homecoming.

She's also a bit of a shutterbug — which is probably good for the camera-shy trainer who never remembers to take pictures. 😂

So damn good to have you back, Cath.

And apparently... expect more pictures. ❤️

I’ve done Sober September a bunch of times now, and every year I’m reminded why I keep coming back to it.

Summer has a way of making drinking a little more automatic. A drink on the patio, weekends, BBQs, social stuff, it just becomes a little easier and a little more frequent.

September feels like a good time to reset.

I sleep better. I train better. My body feels better. My head feels clearer.

And when the month is over, I usually find I have a better relationship with alcohol because of it.

Nothing dramatic. Just a hard reset that I know is good for me.

30 days. Zero alcohol. Here we go again.

90 years today for this absolute legend.

Pretty damn special getting to celebrate it with him, and even cooler watching my kids get to know the man I've been lucky enough to call Grandpa my whole life.

Happy 90th, Grandpa. ❤️
