If you sit for 8 hours a day, do this before bed:
As we prepare ourselves for bed we want to go into a "rested and relaxed" state.

This is the mode for digestion & calm.

One of the best ways to get there is through a few simple movements.

Here's a 5 minute evening flow to prep yourself for a great night of sleep 👇🏼
Trigger point therapy x 2 minutes

This relaxes your body through your fascia.

Use a foam roller or lacrosse ball & use the trigger point technique:

When you find a sensitive area, stop & do 5-10 deep breaths.

You'll find the pain subsides as you do more breathing.

We have 3 months left until we hit summer.

If I woke up 30 pounds overweight and needed to lose it by summer, I'd copy these systems:
The system has five parts:

· Fuel Architecture
· Strength Training
· Step Automation
· KPI Tracking
· Identity Upgrade

It's the same system that helped our client Jay drop 33 pounds in 90 days and countless others.

Here it is: Image
1. Fuel Architecture

Focus on two numbers: calories and protein.

Aim for a 500-700 calorie deficit. For protein, aim for .7 to 1 gram per pound to protect muscle.

You want each meal to be roughly around 40+ grams of protein spread across 3 or so meals.

If you want to lose 75% of your visceral fat in 90 days, copy this: Image
Why is visceral fat different?

It wraps around your organs.

It's not the fat you can pinch. It's the fat that's slowly killing you.

It releases toxic compounds directly into your bloodstream 24/7.
Those compounds drive chronic inflammation, which are linked to:

· Heart disease
· Diabetes
· Alzheimer's
· Certain cancers

And here's the part most people miss is you can lose weight and STILL not lose visceral fat.

95% of people aren't getting enough of this nutrient and it may be killing them.

It's not protein. It's fiber.

Fiber protects against colon cancer, fights heart disease and even helps you lose fat.

Here are 10 high-fiber foods to eat every week:
1. Psyllium Husk

I put a tablespoon in my morning Greek yogurt every day.

It forms a gel that softens stool, slows glucose absorption, lowers LDL cholesterol & feeds gut microbes.

This is the easiest fiber hack I know.
2. Chia Seeds

Two tablespoons have more fiber than most people eat in a meal.

They absorb 10x their weight in water, expand in your gut, and slow digestion to keep blood sugar stable.

Creatine is one of the most studied and effective supplements for your body and your brain.

But the benefits change depending on the dosage.

Here's the benefits (and drawbacks) you'll experience at different dosages of creatine: Image
5 Grams Per Day: The Gold Standard

This is the dose that’s been studied for decades.

It boosts strength, lean muscle, and recovery by increasing cellular energy (ATP).

You’ll also see gradual improvements in working memory, mood stability, and mental clarity.
At 5 grams per day:

- Increases muscle mass & power output
- Improves recovery between workouts
- Enhances focus & resistance to mental fatigue
- Slightly improves mood & reduces depressive symptoms in some people

It’s the foundation. Think of it as your daily baseline.

8 tests that predict how long you'll live (90% of people fail #8):
Test 1: Metabolic Health Markers

Waist to height ratio: under .5
Fasting glucose: under 100 mg/dL
HbA1c: at or below 5.6
FFMI: above 18 (men) / 15 (women)

This is the foundation. Every other test builds on it.
Test 2: Sit-to-Stand Power Test

From a chair, stand up and sit back down 5 times. No hands. Under 12 seconds.

Power declines faster with age than strength does. Most people in their 40s assume they'll pass this easily.

Try it with a timer before you decide.
