This 3 minute neck drill will change your life:

The neck is one of the most important parts of your body.

It moves & protects your head while improving overall mobility but it gets stiff after sitting for long periods of time.

This mobility sequence is only 3 minutes.

Do this consistently & it can change your life:

Looking left & right

Push the shoulder blades back then rotate the neck from side to side.

Try to turn your neck until it feels uncomfortable in a stretching type of way.

Do not turn the head so far that the neck snaps or hurts.

Do this for 15 seconds.

Looking up and down

Place two hands on the chest to focus on your neck.

Then, lift your head up to isolate the muscles & ligaments in the neck.

Next, look down.

Do this for 15 seconds.

Lateral neck stretches

Keep your hands on the chest to isolate the neck, then tilt your head by reaching your ear up.

Return the neck to a neutral position & do the same thing on the other side.

Do this for 15 seconds.

Cell phone stretch

Start by sucking in the chin back to make a double chin.

Then move the neck forward again.

Keep doing this motion to increase the forward & backward mobility of the neck.

Do this for 15 seconds.

Janet Jacksons

Start by keeping the eyes looking straight then slide the neck from side to side while keeping your head level.

Use a mirror to see how far you can slide the neck from side to side with the head level.

Do this for 15 seconds.

I'm 45.

Here are 8 things no one tells you about working out as you get older:

1. Recovery slows down

After you hit 40, the same session you did in your 20s can leave you sore for days.

You will find that your muscles, tendons & nervous system might need longer.

Now you need to prioritize rest as much as training.

2. Sleep is the #1 performance enhancer

As you get older, you start to run into more circadian dysfunction.

At this point, sleep has to be the priority because growth hormone, recovery, and fat loss all tank without it.

Train hard but sleep harder.

If I woke up 20 pounds overweight and wanted to lose it all by the end of this year, this is EXACTLY what I'd do:

1. Eliminate alcohol. When you drink, your body prioritizes burning it first. Trying to burn fat while drinking alcohol is playing the game on hard mode.

2. Multiply your bodyweight by 12. That will be your daily calorie intake.

3. Multiply your bodyweight by .8. That will be the daily grams of protein you need to eat to maintain/build muscle while burning fat.

4. To keep it easy, focus on hitting your calories and protein.

5. Set the right meal schedule:

- Last meal 3 to 5 hours before bed
- First meal 1-2 hours upon waking
- Second meal between them

6. Eat a breakfast containing 40g of protein to regulate hunger and appetite at night while building muscle.

One of the healthiest breads on the planet is sourdough.

It's not just bread. It's a gut-boosting, blood sugar-regulating superfood disguised as a carb.

Here are 6 reasons why you should be eating more sourdough bread:

Btw, sourdough is different because it's baked the old school way.

The dough ferments for hours (sometimes days), letting live cultures break down gluten, carbs, and anti-nutrients.

While modern bread is usually rushed, sourdough is patiently crafted, which has a tremendous impact on your health.

1. It's easier to digest

During fermentation, enzymes break down much of the gluten & complex starches.

That’s why many people who struggle with regular bread can eat sourdough without the bloating, heaviness, or gut issues.

One of the most dangerous types of fat in the world is Visceral fat.

It wraps around your organs, bloats your belly, and is a silent killer.

Here’s a workout you can do to eliminate it from your body once and for all 👇

Why is visceral fat so dangerous?

· Increases inflammation
· Raises heart disease & diabetes risk
· Shrinks brain regions tied to memory & focus
· Disrupts hormones & appetite

This is the real belly fat that shortens lifespan.

But here’s the good news: it’s reversible.

The 3 best workouts proven to melt visceral fat:

1. High-Frequency Strength Training
2. Moderate-Intensity Walking
3. High-Intensity Cardio (HIIT)

Each attack fat from a different angle, and together, they form the world’s most effective workout system to delete visceral fat.

7 walking hacks to help you burn more fat and live longer (COPY THIS):

#1 - Japanese Interval Walking

Alternate 3 min fast, 3 min slow × 30 min.

Studies show it burns more fat, lowers blood pressure, & boosts VO₂ max better than steady walking.

#2 - Incline Walking

A 5% grade burn can lead to up to 50% more calories burned.

A 10% grade can double it.

Bonus: It puts less stress on the knees since hips + glutes take more load.
