I turned 38 today.

Here are 5 lessons chronic pain has taught me after coaching parents all over the country.

→ Pain is not a life sentence
Most people come to me believing something in their body is broken. It's not. It's undertrained, underloaded, and scared of movement it hasn't done in years. Once we start rebuilding capacity, the fear goes first. The pain follows right behind it.

→ Strength is the antidote to fear
You can't think your way out of chronic pain. You build your way out of it. Every rep is proof to your nervous system that your body is safe to move again. That's not motivation. That's science.

→ Presence is a physical skill
You can't wrestle your kids on the floor, carry them up the stairs, or chase them at the park if your body can't handle the load. Presence isn't just showing up emotionally. It's having the capacity to physically show up too.

→ Most pain doesn't need meds, injections, or surgery
99% of what I see needs a plan. Progressive loading, better habits, and someone willing to coach you through the discomfort of getting strong again. Not a quick fix. A real one.

→ The parents I coach teach me more than school ever did
Nurses like Carol. Skeptics like Jeff who didn't believe remote coaching could work until it did. Every one of them proved the same thing to me: it's never too late to rebuild.

I do this so I can still get on the floor with my own kids, not just today, for the next 30 years.

What's one thing you want your body to still do at 70? Tell me below. 👇

Every "ugh, my back hurts" moment with your kids right now is something future-you would give anything to feel again.

The early mornings. The stairs. The chasing around the yard. The boring mobility drills you skip because you're tired.

None of that is a burden. It's proof you can still say yes to them.

The version of you decades from now isn't going to remember the mobility drill. He's going to remember whether he could still get on the floor to play, still carry them up the stairs, still chase them in the yard.

Capacity doesn't wait for you to feel ready. It's built in the boring reps you almost skipped today.

I've spent my career helping busy parents build a body that says yes for decades, not just this year. Not through injections. Through strength, mobility, and the kind of capacity that keeps you in the game long after your kids stop asking you to carry them.

If you want to be able to say yes for as long as possible, follow along. I share exactly how, every week.

And if you're already dealing with pain that's making you say no more than you'd like, FOLLOW this page. Let's change that before you're the guy in the bottom panel.

🚨 Legion RARELY does BOGO 50% off — and it's happening right now for Labor Day.
If you know me, you know I don't co-sign supplements unless the research backs it up. Legion is the most heavily researched supplement brand out there, and this is the best deal they run all year. Prices go back up September 18th, so here's what's in my stack right now 👇
💪 Creatine Monohydrate — Not just for strength. It fuels ATP production at the cellular level (your body's energy currency), boosts power output and recovery, and there's growing research on cognitive and mood benefits — especially when you're sleep-deprived. My wife swears by this one too.
🦴 Fortify (Joint Support) — Clinically dosed with ingredients like curcumin to support joint integrity and cartilage health. If you're dealing with achy joints from training (or just life), this takes the edge off.
🥛 Whey+ Grass-Fed Isolate — High bioavailability, complete amino profile, leucine-rich for muscle protein synthesis, and virtually zero fat/carbs. Easy on digestion, easy to build a meal around.
🍫 Protein Crispy Treats — For the days you're slammed and need protein on the go. No junk fillers, no artificial sweeteners — just convenient fuel.
💧 Hydrate — If you're dragging through the day with low energy, chances are you're under-hydrated at the cellular level. Electrolytes matter more than people think.

I used to be a night owl.

Late nights, later mornings, and I told myself that was just my rhythm.
I had it backwards.

Now I'm up before the sun — because that's the only hour of the day that belongs to me. No kids calling my name. No client calls. Just quiet, and the chance to do the hardest thing first.

A client told me something once that stuck with me — you have to eat the frog first. Do the hard thing before your mind talks you out of it. Everything after feels earned instead of forced.

There's real physiology behind it too:

— Morning sunlight helps regulate your circadian rhythm

— It supports healthy serotonin activity

— It helps your body manage cortisol in a way that lowers stress for the rest of the day.

By the time I walk back through the door, I'm not depleted. I'm clear, regulated, and actually present — which is the version of me my family deserves.

37 turning 38 — and I've never moved better in my life.

Somewhere along the way we decided late 30s means decline is coming. Slower recovery. Lower numbers. "Enjoy it while you can."

That's not what 20 years of consistent training has taught me.

→ Strength doesn't peak in your 20s — it peaks whenever you stop treating training as optional
→ Joint resilience isn't genetic luck. It's built through years of progressive, controlled load
→ Grip strength, shoulder health, hip mobility — these decline from disuse, not age

So on our family vacation, instead of telling my niece and nephews to go train, I just… trained. Bench, pull-ups, split squats, core — all of it, next to them, at whatever weight and level they could handle that day.

Because the most convincing coaching cue isn't a lecture. It's showing up at 37 moving better than you did at 27, and letting the next generation see exactly what that costs — and what it builds.

You don't decline. You enter your peak. It just requires showing up longer than most people are willing to.

"I just need to rest it more."

We've all said this about pain that's been hanging around way longer than it should.

Here's the part nobody wants to admit: if rest hasn't fixed it in months, rest was never going to fix it.

Pain that lingers isn't usually asking for more stillness. It's telling you your body lost capacity for something it used to handle without a second thought, carrying groceries, bending to tie a shoe, getting on the floor with your kids. Rest doesn't rebuild that capacity. It just postpones finding out you need to.

So the ache stays. Not because you're doing something wrong by resting. Because you were handed the wrong instructions from the start.

You're not lazy. You're not broken. You've just never been shown what actually works.

Building capacity, not chasing more rest, is what gets that "sore back" off your mental to-do list for good.

If this sounds familiar, save this for later and follow along for more practical ways to move and feel better.

The rest of the year is basically BAR:

September. October. November. December. 😂

And if you’re anything like me, that means more food, more family gatherings, more travel, and probably a few more “I’ll start in January” moments.

But what if you didn’t wait?

You’ve got 4 months left in the year to get stronger, move better, and build some habits that actually carry into 2027.

You don’t need to skip the holidays. You just need to stop putting your health on hold every time life gets busy.

Lock in for the next 4 months. Future you will be glad you did.

Follow for simple ways to stay strong and healthy through the holidays. 👊

Every dad I know has a version of this story.

You start training for personal records. Then one day you look up and you're training for an entirely different reason.

Not to hit a number. Not to look a certain way. To still be able to get on the floor. To still be the one who can carry them up the stairs, throw them in the air, survive fifteen straight minutes of "watch me, Dad" without tapping out.

Here's the part nobody tells you early enough:

Your kids don't stay the same weight. They don't stay the same speed. They don't wait for you to "start again next month."

Every year you put it off is a year they get faster, heavier, and more able while you stay exactly where you are, or worse.

This isn't about vanity. It's not about chasing a six-pack or a PR nobody but you cares about. It's about making sure that when they ask you to play, chase, or carry them, the answer is always yes, not "give me a minute" or "not today, my back's acting up."

Taking care of your body isn't selfish. It's one of the most selfless things you can do for the people who need you the most.

If you're a parent who's been putting this off, waiting for the "right time" that never comes, this is your sign.

Follow along, I share exactly how busy parents like you build real strength and stay pain-free without medication, injections, or hours you don't have.

And if you're already dealing with pain that's slowing you down, DM me the word READY. Let's get you back to being the one who can keep up.

Physical therapy for knee pain usually means the same 3 sets of 10 — forever.

Here's why that stops working, and what actually protects the joint.

Swipe through 3 things I check with almost every knee pain client — including why progressive overload matters more than any single exercise.

Which one are you missing? Drop a 1, 2, or 3 below.

Save this for leg day. Send it to someone stuck on the same sheet 🦵

Your knee pain isn't a strength problem. It's a variety problem.

If you're still doing the same glute bridges, clamshells, and bodyweight squats your PT gave you months ago
..this is why it stopped working.

1) Strengthen your quads AND hamstrings.

Overdeveloping one alone doesn't protect the joint.
Both need to be strong enough to guard the ligaments and cartilage around it.

2) Look above and below the knee aka regional interdepedence.

Your hips control rotation and side-to-side force. Your ankles and feet absorb load before it ever reaches your knee. Train front-to-back only, and you're exposed everywhere else.

3) Add plyometrics and progressive overload, at any age (see my client in their 70s doing what my 20 yewr old's doing)

The same 3 sets of 10 for six months stops producing results because your body already adapted.

Jumping and landing drills 🦵 done at the right intensity, teach your knees to decelerate and handle real life.

Which of these are you missing in your rehab? Drop a 1, 2, or 3 below.

Save this for your next leg day. Send it to someone stuck doing the same PT sheet on repeat.
