Today marks the day where I start to slowly taper body fat percentage. I have competed twice this month in BJJ and I have loved it. I’ve done IBJJF and New Breed. For sure prefer IBJJF, so I’m going to work towards their Medium-Heavy Weight Class, max weight of 195lbs.

Don’t want to lose much strength or muscle mass, so going to try and manipulate my BF%. Currently estimated like 16-17 percentage. If I adjust macros and time carbs with resistance training and BJJ specifically, I’d like to drop to around 10% body fat. That should drop me to like 190-192 range.

Then come next years IBJJF I’ll be ready to compete at that weight class full time. Staying walking around weight at the top of the weigh class and only shedding minimal pounds of water weight for those will be perfect.

Today I was 206.0 and now let’s play with food, training routine: lifting weights, mat time and some cardio. Then adding in regular sauna use to help with the following: improved cardiovascular fitness, recovery benefits, temporary weight-loss (glycogen-associated water), heat adaptation and supporting long-term weight loss. This will all help me recover better, reduce stress, maintain high training volumes, sleep better, increased blood flow to muscles, thermoregulation and muscle mass retention.

As we celebrate 250 years of American independence, I can’t help but reflect on another milestone that means a great deal to me.

Just a few days ago, on June 29th, I marked 11 years since retiring from the United States Marine Corps. Some days those years feel like a lifetime ago. Other days, the memories are so vivid I can still feel the weight of the pack, hear the sounds, and remember the brothers who stood beside me.

Serving this nation was one of the greatest privileges of my life. I will always be grateful for the opportunity to defend the freedoms we often take for granted and to stand alongside men and women willing to sacrifice everything for something greater than themselves.

As we celebrate today, I hope we do more than enjoy the cookouts, fireworks, and time with family. I hope we pause to remember the 250-year story that brought us here—the courage, sacrifice, perseverance, and unwavering belief that liberty is worth fighting for. Freedom was never guaranteed. It was earned, defended, and preserved by generations willing to answer the call.

So today, I celebrated in my own way.

I hit chest day and challenged myself with 5 sets of 5 reps at 250 pounds on the flat bench. That’s 25 total reps… add a zero for a little patriotic fun, and you’ve got 250.

A small tribute to a nation that has stood for 250 years.

Happy Independence Day, America.

Semper Fidelis. God Bless America. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

My degree arrived yesterday so I finally got to frame it. Now time to find the best spot in the gym (aka my office) for it.

Still so proud of this accomplishment.
