Title defended. 1st in Age Group — same race, one year later. But the result that matters more: I was 1 minute 28 seconds faster than last year. Not because I trained harder. Because I trained smarter and recovered better. Everything I've been tracking, adjusting, and documenting is showing up on the race course. That's the whole point. This one's for every man in this community who's been told that getting older means getting slower. It doesn't have to. What is your latest win? Share 👇

Sunday night I slept 457 minutes. Sleep score: 91. Readiness score: 67. On paper, that looks like a great night of sleep with a mediocre recovery. But context is everything — on Sunday I raced all-out. My body did exactly what it was supposed to do. This is what the Oura ring actually taught me. Not how to sleep better. How to read the signal correctly. Before I started paying attention to my circadian cycle, I would have looked at a 67 readiness score and pushed through a hard session anyway. That's what disciplined people do, right? We don't skip training because we're tired. The problem is that's not discipline. That's noise. What changed for me was understanding that readiness isn't a grade — it's a conversation. A 67 the morning after a race tells me my body is processing real stress. The right response isn't to push. It's to let the adaptation happen. The circadian piece goes deeper than just wake time. It's about aligning when you train, when you eat, and when you recover with what your biology is actually doing. When I got that right, my scores didn't just improve — my performance did. I cover the surface of this in one of my YouTube videos. But the real detail is here. So my scheduled on paper training for yesterday was: 1 hour swim, and 45 minutes of strength. What took place - 25 minutes on Vasa trainer. I needed recovery, my brain was fried by the afternoon... Question for the community: are you using your tracking data to make decisions, or just to collect numbers? How do you apply the knowledge you get from the data?

Most men don’t have an energy problem. They have a standards problem. They’ve just accepted feeling: – tired by 2pm – foggy in the morning – drained after simple tasks And labeled it “normal.” It’s not normal. It’s just common. I will be testing something this week that could challenge how I think about energy… Not workouts. Not supplements. Not sleep. Something most people completely overlook. Too early to say anything definitive—but this might be a big one. I’ll share what I find once I have real data. Until then— 👉 What’s the ONE thing you think is draining your energy right now?

Nothing around energy really changes overnight. At least that hasn’t been my experience. What I’m starting to see more clearly is that it’s tied to daily habits… The small things you do consistently. Sleep timing. Hydration. How you fuel. How you recover. Not one big change — but a lot of small ones stacking. I just picked up Atomic Habits, and it reinforced something simple: 👉 1% better each day adds up. Curious… What are a few daily habits you have right now that you feel are actually helping your energy?

Energy first. Everything else follows. When your energy is off: Your work suffers. Your business slows down. Your patience at home drops. Your relationships feel heavier. Your thinking isn’t as sharp. Most people try to fix everything else first. But it usually starts here.
