I am happy with my Function Health results, but I really love a challenge. I'm wondering if I can back this up to 40 years of biological age when I get tested again in 6 months. 😁

For my birthday a few years ago, my wife gave me a Blackstone Griddle. If you don't have one -- they're AWESOME. I think it may have actually been as much of a gift for her as it was for me but as it has served us both VERY well! Not only can I make tons of food at once making meal prep a whole lot easier but the food tastes phenomenal and the clean-up afterward is absolutely minimal. The other day I was up pretty early. I had already worked out, gone on a short run, and done some tidying up around the house. When 11am rolled around I was STARVING. Borderline hangry. I had a ribeye from Good Ranchers in the fridge and decided to treat myself to a little steak and eggs brunch. Truth be told... I had already decided on this meal BEFORE my workout. And as soon as I decided, I put everything I was about to eat into a calorie/macro tracker. Honestly I do not track every calorie, maco, or meal. In fact, I rarely do it anymore. But sometimes it's good to get a reality check. And, on this day, I did this for 2 very important reasons. When speaking with prospective and current members in our "Strategy Sessions" there are 2 common mistakes people make when it comes to nutrition, whether they're actually tracking or just going by intuition... Common Mistake #1: NOT PLANNING AHEAD It has never made sense to me why people track after they’ve already eaten everything. Then they find out they over ate or didn’t get enough protein as they’re getting into bed. And then what? They do the same thing the next day. You can’t make adjustments AFTER you’ve already eaten all your meals. Even when following your intuition, you still need to have an idea of how you're going to fuel throughout the day. Common Mistake #2: NOT INCLUDING CONDIMENTS, Etc WITHOUT including the butter, oil, ketchup, and A1 sauce this meal is approximately: ❌ 870 calories WITH the butter, oil, ketchup, and A1 sauce this meal is approximately: ✅ 1300 calories That’s a 400+ calorie difference!

The supplement industry is currently a ~70 billion dollar industry in the US and only growing larger. It's also incredibly unregulated. In fact, one has to prove a supplement is actually harmful in order for it to be taken off of the shelves rather than prove it to be effective in order to be put to market. Check out this 3 minute clip from the 2008 documentary "Bigger, Faster, Stronger" to see just how easy it is for YOU to start your own supplement line today! https://youtu.be/ThdFqGLq4QU?si=8YxpUEfmtXT1BXWK It's scary, isn't it? In the presentation below, you'll learn how to identify which supplements are third-party tested to ensure quality and proper labeling. You'll also learn some general recommendations we make to our members at Peak City Gym to help them optimize their health and performance. Most of our members are over 40, hence the title, but honestly these supplements would be beneficial for most in their 20's and 30's as well. I've also included the slides from the presentation for quick reference.
