Went with bathroom selfie today 😎… but wait there’s a story👇🏽, have a read.

The common known cycle is to bulk in the winter and when summer comes around get as lean and shredded as possible, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with this approach. I’ve done it many times myself. Most people assume just because one’s appearance is lean to the max they must be healthy. Disciplined, yes. Healthy, not always the case.

This year(not that I still couldn’t) I didn’t really feel like leaning down in preparation for summer but have maintained a decent physique. My understanding of healthy is finding a balance. This balance not only pertains to health but in life, and that’s likely different for each person.

My point in all of this, is leanness does not always equate to healthy, and it comes down to finding a balance. For example body builders prepping for a show. I’ve got nothing against them or the sport and have the utmost respect for the time, dedication and discipline involved to compete. However, the truth of it is and although their bodies look great it’s usually not a healthy pursuit. The training for some can be two times a day, resulting in time away from family or whomever. As for nutrition, it almost borders the line of starvation, leading to irritability, headaches, and sleeplessness. Again my purpose isn’t to knock the sport, however I’m just stating the reality of it.

So, there’s an imaginary scale which may change throughout your life in relation to priorities etc… Speaking specifically about health it’s up to you to determine where you would like to be. The more extreme or lean body you want requires more extreme measures.

My advice to you is, find something that is sustainable long term and stick with it. Avoid extreme dieting, or buying into quick weight loss programs. Most people are unable to sustain them long term hence the rebound in weight.

Just because one’s physique may not show every muscle in the body it doesn’t mean they are not healthy. Healthy is the balance you decide when looking in the mirror and in life in general.

I would love to hear your thoughts even if you disagree. We can still be friends promise.

Putt’n in work with Boo .wilson

When it’s warmer out we like to get to the local track. The kid runs around while the we push the other in the stroller. Some workouts go more smoothly than others. Some have less bathroom breaks and tantrums than others, and some just don’t fully get complete.

All that being said, what makes me the happiest is we’re all healthy. My wife loves training just as much as I do, and the hope is our children see and follow our example.

“ We believe the pursuit of great health is the gateway to happy and more fulfilled life”.

We know what it’s like to balance family work hobbies you name it. However we try and make our health a top priority.

Our bodies are meant to move so get out and do something and you’ll be grateful you did.

Wait til the end. That’s the sound of a champ 🥊. It’s Jan 11th. How’s that new you New Years resolution coming?
If you’re still on the fitness 🚂 perhaps this can help out!
1️⃣Barbell front squat. These really challenge the core to ensure the weight doesn’t fall forward.
2️⃣Jumping banded lunges. Where my athletes at? These are great for building power!
3️⃣Hamstring DB curls. Careful with these, balancing that weight at first can be tricky.
4️⃣Bringing back the classic school yard jump rope. Trying going 30 seconds on 30 off and do that about 10 times. This will bring out the true champ in you!

Proving to the world you can get abs one 🍩 dunk at a time. Wasn't much of a dunker in my basketball career, however I sure can dunk a donut!
🍩
In continuation of a my 1 donut a day challenge for a full month, "Donut & Abs". If you haven't been following check out the previously posted IGTV series Donut & Abs.
🍩
This definitely has been a new challenge and a lot of fun. I've certainly had to adjust my nutrition to stay on course.

Donut and abs, what could be better 🤷🏽?!
For one whole month I ate a donut each day and was able to maintain abs. Only one donut was tough, I usually try eating the whole box 😋.
🍩
I had an internet troll comment on one of my ads. He said "you can't have your favorite treats and still look good. That's why most people are fat". Well it's been done. You can eat your favorite treats (in moderation) and still look good!
🍩
I will say this a million times and more. It's all about your total daily calorie intake. No matter what you eat if you're below your TDEE (total daily energy expenditure) you'll lose weight. If you eat above that mark you'll gain weight.
🍩
So I fit a donut into my 2,100 calorie consumption and after 30 days I still had abs. For more details check out the IGTV video related to this challenge.
