Should have planned better than to film this in my pantry with the lights on a 60 second timer 😂

But fr - having a plan is great but life happens all the times

On weekends, while traveling, and in general.

Being consistent is about planning for the best AND preparing for the worst.

That’s where these tools come in.

No matter where I am in the world or what’s happening, having simple food sources like this on hand means I can hit my macro targets with decent sources rather than giving in to junk food or whatever’s available.

The right choices ARE what’s available

And because of that - I can still be consistent with hitting my targets.

This and other tools to adapt to the changing circumstances of life are part of what I teach my clients to create consistency that creates the results you see.

It’s not about being perfect all the time.
It’s about having the tools and systems to make better choices that are in line with your goals.

Cause you rise to the level of your goals.
You fall to the level of your systems.

So if you want better results, you need better systems.

That’s where we come in.

Let me be clear: dysfunction in the gut creates dysfunction EVERYWHERE

This is why I’m so big on gut health with my athletes

It’s not just the “discomfort” of heartburn or bloating or constipation or diarrhea. Chronic symptoms indicate real issues that, if not addressed, will create many more (and more severe) issues downstream.

Not only that - but it’s exactly why you’re putting in so much work and frustrated with the lack of results.

And that has to make sense, right?

Healthy bodies are super responsive and predictable.
Unhealthy bodies are…not 🤷🏼‍♂️

That’s why this can’t be just “fitness”
This is “health and fitness”

And health HAS to come first.

So if you’re frustrated with your results while also experiencing issues with sleep, digestion, hormones, stress, etc…

Maybe it’s time to work smarter, not harder.

Stop trying to force your body to change.
Give it what it needs and it’ll give you what you want.
Every. Single. Time.

Bowl or plate? Fork or spoon?

I have a theory and will share the results in another reel after collecting your answers 🧐

How to enjoy tf out of your trip without completely falling off track (even if you don’t have a kitchen):

Grab non-negotiable foods from the grocery store
Move your body daily
Drink your water
Make good choices

Non negotiable travel foods = prioritize shelf-stable lean proteins and carbohydrates

Lean proteins:
- protein powder
- tuna packets
- beef jerky

Carbs:
- fruit
- oats
- microwaveable rice
- crispy rice cereal
- if you need a LOT of carbs and are more on-the-go, grab some bagels

Note: I don’t snack. I don’t consume carbs or fats without protein. I prioritize “meals” over “snacks”. I will, however, smash a protein shake, some beef jerky, or some tuna packets on their own to make sure I always hit my protein goal

Note 2: if you plan on eating out, it’s unlikely you need to supplement fats as restaurants tend to use a lot more fats than your home cooking. If you do need more fats, consider grabbing some nuts, nut butter, avocado, or some fattier protein sources (sardines are great) from the grocery store

Keep it simple
Don’t overcomplicate it ✌🏼

Have you tried making this a lifestyle instead of a quick fix?

Usually when people say “I’ve tried everything” it means they’ve tried all the fad diets and s**tty programs

Keto, carnivore, low carb, high protein, fasting, intermittent fasting, the list goes on.

All while missing the forest for the trees.

Here’s the thing:

Almost any strategy will work *sometimes*

The determining factor as to whether or not ANY strategy works (to build muscle, burn fat, you name it) will *always* come down to your HEALTH

How healthy are you really?

Cause healthy bodies are responsive and predictable.
Unhealthy bodies are not.

So the only strategy that actually works 100% of the time is the one that puts your health FIRST.

Then, fat loss and muscle gain happens EASILY as a by-product (and it’s way easier and more sustainable)

That’s why we do what we do.

We Assess to identify the problems
We Prime to implement solutions to fix them
We Transform to reap the rewards and see progress like you’ve always dreamt of

But none of that happens if you just keep pushing for fat loss in a body that’s too stressed to cooperate.

Or you could always keep doing what you’re doing and stay stuck in the same vicious cycle for another few years 🤷🏼‍♂️

Class is in session 💩

YOU BETTER BE P**PIN!!

If you’re not, that’s why you’re puffy and inflamed, tired, bloated, uncomfortable, and feel like you’re training your ass off and “eating clean” but still not seeing results

If left untreated, that’s also why your hormones are out of whack, your menstrual cycles are irregular, and you can’t turn your brain off at night 👀

Dysfunction in the gut creates dysfunction everywhere

There’s a reason digestion is one of the first things I support in every single client I work with

Better digestion =
Better hormone metabolism and clearance
Better nutrient absorption and utilization
Better toxin clearance
Better immune system function
Better neurotransmitter function
Less inflammation
Better physical + mental performance
Less brain fog, more mental clarity
Better energy
Better sleep
Better fat loss and muscle gain
Better progress

GO P**P, GIRL!

And if you’re not, or if you’re regularly experiencing any symptoms you’d find on the back of a pepto-bismol bottle…

Let’s fix that (you can thank me later) 💩

Real friends make sure their friends are P**PIN 💩

Daily bowel movements are about more than just being comfortable and not bloated AF all the time
It’s literally phase 3 of your body’s natural detoxification process

Clear that sh*t out (literally - toxins, hormone clearance, etc)

They should be GOOD p**ps too. Type 3-4 on the Bristol Stool Chart, healthy color / texture / consistency.

Your p**p is literally free feedback on your digestion - pay attention to it!

Check in on your friends and GO P**P, GIRL 💁🏼‍♀️

And if you’re not p**pin?
Yeah, we fix that 💩

Sorry Mom 👋🏼 I’m serious about the tattoo though…

Side note / story time - my parents used to call me “NFL” for “No Frontal Lobe” 😂

They stopped asking, “if your friends jumped off a bridge, would you jump too?” when my response was “uh duh, that sounds awesome! I’ll go first!” (lol we had lots of bridges to jump off growing up)

Real talk though I do think that in a way, playing stupid games and winning stupid prizes has actually played a part in my success.

I mean think about it:
I’m not afraid to f**k up.
I’m not afraid to fail.
I’m certainly not afraid to try.

I’ve learned more from failure and f**k ups than most people have learned from things going right.

Now I’m a little older, a little wiser, a little more mindful of serious injury, so I think a bit more before taking action on very high-risk injury things.

My frontal lobe is a little more developed (lol took long enough 😂).

But that doesn’t stop me from having fun, trying new things, sucking at things (which, by the way, is the first step to getting really good at things),and not being afraid to fail. I think that’s a massive driver of my success.

And yes, still occasionally doing s**t that makes my mother (and my wife and her mother) want to smack me over the head 😂

I see fear of failure and fear of things going wrong hold so many people back from actually trying. I didn’t really have a lot of that growing up and although it’s definitely gotten me into trouble, it’s also something I really like about myself.

If there’s anything to learn from my “play stupid games, win stupid prizes,” maybe it’s to try.

Be mindful, be smart, but try.

Don’t be afraid to fail.
Don’t be afraid of what could go wrong.
Just have fun, try, and if you eat s**t, learn something from it, dust yourself off, and try again.

✌🏼
