A house is only as strong as the foundation it's built on.

I've lived by these words ever since I began training years ago. To build a body, it requires a solid foundation of exercise understanding, nutrition implementation, and an, "I can do this," attitude. I put my whole heart and soul into the clients that I work with and I will do as much as physically possible to help them understand these basic principles. The motivation needed for change can make

or break people, so working through the outside noise and helping them stay focused is a big focal point for me. The transformation of body, mind, and quality of life is why I do what I do and failing is never an option. Together, we don't just change what we see in the mirror but instead, change the entire way to live. This is why I became a trainer.

I love cooking on the holidays because I get to go all out. Baked marinara chicken with scalloped potatoes and onions, all made from scratch including the sauces. First time trying these but they turned out just perfect 🤌🏼

Too many people say, “I’m going to start losing weight after the holidays,” but this opens the door for gluttony and far too much weight gain during this period of time. Most people fall off their new health programs by spring which means that the only thing they did for themselves was work off the added weight they originally allowed themselves to gain.

I see it every year… rinse and repeat

Another quad day in the books… Keeping things simple is probably one of the best ways to see overall progression. Far too often people change exercises and workouts week over week but in doing this, they leave too much on the table and have no way of tracking progressive overload. You don’t need 10 exercises in a workout; on the contrary, you need tried and proven movements that stimulate proper hypertrophy in the target muscles by pushing them to or near failure with proper tempo, load, and range of motion.

Follow the KISS principle (Keep it simple stupid) as often as possible. Every 4-8 weeks, change your routine and progress that one for 4-8 weeks and you’ll see changes far faster than spinning the wheel everytime you walk into the gym.

Todays workout:

Leg Press: 8 sets of 6-10 reps
Leg Ext.: 6 sets of 8-12 reps
Hip Adduction : 4 sets of 10-15 reps
Standing Calf Press : 6 sets 6-10 reps

Total Volume : 79,149lbs

Had to share this one… I was craving lasagna all week and just couldn’t fit it into my numbers, so I decided to try something different that will give the taste and settle the urge… Lasagna pizza

Now, it’s not remotely close to true Italian, nor do I care but it definitely hits hard with only 25g of carbs for the low carbers out there.

Ingredients:

- 2 La Banderita Large (12in) tortillas
- 2 1/4 servings of cheese (mozzarella will give less calories but I only had a mix)
- 2 servings ricotta cheese
- 3 servings of low calorie red sauce (you can give and take here with cheese calories)
- 6oz pork tenderloin (I had left over from a crockpot cook)
- 1 serv. of pepperoni
- Garlic powder & salt to taste

How to cook:

1. Heat oven to 385 degrees

2. Add first tortilla - I use a pizza grate but you can use any sprayed pan

3. Add cheese (1/4 cup) and make sure it’s on the edges, the tortilla will curl and this helps prevent it

4. Add the 2nd tortilla and toss in oven (double up obviousl) and cook for 14 min flipping it over at the 7m mark

5. Add all your toppings… I used a processor for my pork and jalapeños. I just tossed them all in and blended and it came out as mixed crumbles.

6. Layer sauce, pork mix, cheese, ricotta in clock formation, extra red sauce (if you like) between ricotta and then add pepperoni

7. Bake for 20 min more and BOOM! Done!

It tastes almost identical to a decent lasagne plus, it only has >27 carbs (depending on sauce) and is >960 calories with >80g protein. If you IM fast or do some other way of dieting that allows for 1 really solid meal a day (as I do), this is a definite winner imo.

Try it and tell me what you think!

It’s just getting nasty now… Today is the first of 3 carb loads to top off glycogen levels after 3 weeks of low-no carbs and shifting in and out of ketosis.

600g of carbs seems to be doing well… I will admit that i’ve completely slacked on water intake which has caused quite a bit of subcutaneous retention which is why definition is severely lacking but sushi won the day 😂.

This is completely unflexed and I’m just chilling while watching “The Last Voyage of The Demeter.” Throw 3 more weeks of a lot more intense dieting on this and I think I’ll finally be able to say it will the leanest I’ve ever been; as well as the biggest.

When I started this diet at 243lbs I calculated my best size/weight would be about 208lbs and I hit that number this morning fully depleted so realistically, I think 210 is where I’m going to land this boat. This will be fully carb loaded and water depleted for stage/shoot ready condition. I think I underestimated my size slight but a 2lb difference is just a rounding error. Roughly ~2-3lbs left to trim before hitting that final form.

Watching the body change like this never gets old. Once you hit a certain point, given you have enough muscle mass on your frame, you can literally see changes every time you wake up. When you’re super lean, it’s so much easier to see how specific foods affect you and which ones will dry you out, tighten the skin, cause an increase in vascularity (normally sodium related), create an inflammatory response, etc. It never gets old because you can wake up looking one way and after a few meals, your body can change completely. It’s honestly what I love most about dieting…

I don’t eat out much but when refeed days come and carbs are necessary, sushi is ALWAYS my go-to. This little treat was $130
with delivery which is absolutely insane imo. It’s so much cheaper but make yourself if you can find a solid seafood distributor but I never ever treat myself to anything so
