Invaluable.

answer is always abs & obliques
Makes sense, since high amounts of abdominal fat is related to low sex drive and testosterone
Here’s how I keep my abs & obliques popping:

Level 1: knees bent on floor - 10 reps

Keep your shoulders on ground and move slowly.
Works every time.

I organically discovered this movement years ago while messing around with the TRX,
@mythoughtfood
calls it a Cuban Press/Face Pull hybrid
Ever since then, I included it in all of my push workouts because it promotes shoulder stability & reduces risk of injury

Most lower back problems stem from a weak posterior chain.
The lower back's role is to support, not lift.
Glutes and hamstrings are muscles that CAN handle the workload.
And if they're weak?
Your lower back compensates.
Here’s what I do to strengthen my posterior chain:
Bodybuilding would be an understatement.
I’m on the path of character carving.
You could strip me of the body I have, and internally, I would be the same man.

As a child, I was set up to fail HARD
I was severely apathetic, depressed, & fearful
then?
At 12, I had an epiphany that turned into a self-fulfilling prophecy
I realized, if I do the inner-work..
I can champion and transmute this pain
Now, I am fully integrated and whole
In less than 3 days:
Spent Christmas alone, went thru heartbreak, house broken into, no water due to leakage, power outage, missed biz opps, car problems

A pretty deranged thought occurred during my workout, most likely because I was lifting intensely with 528 hz. I envisioned my funeral as a result of a premature death, and seeing all of my loved ones there. Maybe it’s the Cordyceps, idk. Great back workout though. Lat spread 🥂

Struggling to develop your biceps?
Try using the cuff attachment for cable preacher curls
Really good way to minimize forearm engagement by not actively gripping onto the weight
My little 8 year old brother’s watching YouTube & I see that ad in the top right

Ghee: excellent anti-inflammatory, great source of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals.
Some cultures even use it as moisturizer and to treat burns.
It has a high smoking point and gives a nutty flavor for my herbed lamb loin chops.
Even guys who lift, most of them anyway, have a physique that looks “off”
There’s a few reasons why, but THE big one?
Way too much focus on width, and not enough on thickness.
But don’t worry, I got you covered…
Here’s 3 specific movements to an aesthetic back and posture 👇
#1
Defy Gravity: DB Weighted Side Bend
On a roman chair, set the padding at hip level
Grab a dumbbell, and let gravity stretch out your obliques
Exhale as you contract
3 sets of 10-15 each side
The best “clean” meal you can have:
Ahi poke made at home with good portions.
Salsa with natural digestive enzymes to increase nutrient absorption and protein synthesis.
Lipase enzyme from 🥑
Amylase from 🥭
Being mindful about seed oils and avoiding using them at home?
I’m all for it.
Being a weirdo about having a slice of pizza or some fries with your homies when you’re out?
Not for me dog.
I probably got more beatings than hugs as a kid
It turned me into a savage, but I still got love for everyone
With bitterness came compassion, by asking myself “why” things were the way they were
To know all is to forgive all
The biggest takeaways are:
-Have impenetrable values
-Know the right people
-Take initiative
-Know you can have it ALL, if you are worthy
-Have fun and enjoy the process
Assume EVERYONE is natural, even if it's absurd.
Call it delusional
But whether they're on gear or not, what does that have to do with YOU?
Believe it's real so you dream bigger, not for what's "realistic"
Shoot for the stars.
Worse case scenario?
You land on a mountain.
Cossack squat:
One of my favorites
Why?
1. Opens up hips
2. Mobilizes ankles
3. Improves flexibility
4. Makes lower body movements feel more fluid
5. Circulates blood to your legs while activating core (great warm-up)
To make easier: point your toes up on lengthened side
Do this exercise if you want your forearms to look like you work in construction.
Preacher curl setup, using a rope attachment - peak tension at peak contraction.
Give it a go your next arm workout.
Try this right now to reduce elbow pain:
1. Push-up position
2. Reverse your hands as far as you can backwards
3. Move side to side and backwards (goal is to find discomfort)
4. Hang out in the position for 2-5 minutes everyday
5. You can work on retraction/protraction during

The quickest way to lose respect is to be a person that needs to be told what to do
Self-impose the pressure, "don't be too hard on yourself" what bro??
What is "too hard?"
No one cares, push your limits
Before you bench, loosen up your shoulders with this unique stretch
This will instantly improve your range of motion, and unglue that front deltoid junction
3 steps:
1. Lower bar
2. Tilt to one side
3. Shift
Hold for ~3 seconds and alternate as if you were kayaking.
1. Kettlebell Preacher Hammer Curl
A true measure of an exercise’s efficacy?
When light weight feels heavy.
I could only do 20lbs.
Prioritize form over weight and your forearms will explode.
