I was this close to skipping my workout today… but then something happened. After dinner, my daughter Olivia looked at me and said, “Dad, are we getting a workout in today?” She’s 5 years old. So we went downstairs and started the workout together. She joined me for the first 10 minutes, then stopped and said, “I’m done. I’m going to play.” And that’s when it hit me—we have accountability partners in our lives who are younger than we realize. I couldn’t just stop. I finished strong and crushed my workout, even on a day I almost skipped. Ended the day with 12K steps thanks to time in the gym. Lesson of the day: 👉 Prioritize your health—because health creates wealth. 💪 Who got there workout in today? No pic with her because she left after 10min lol If you read this far you might as well join this https://www.skool.com/hardwayfitness/about?ref=0cb627cc17c547619211c4c5c5ae3e77

I had the honor to collaborate with two amazing people. @Stephen Mooney and @Ray Thigpen We recorded an episode for my podcast and I was the guest for Ray’s. The power of merging eco systems is real and I’m always looking for more likeminded people to do this with!

Today's quote from my book: “You don’t have to be perfect to keep momentum alive.” Doing What You Know, Chapter 11, p. 218 Perfection pauses. Momentum moves. Tiny reps beat grand plans. When you keep showing up, friction drops. Results stack. Confidence goes from loud to steady. Missed yesterday? Restart today. Protect the streak and make the win small enough to finish. Keep it boring. Keep it daily. Let motion create more motion. Pick one 5-minute rep you can repeat all week. Do the first one now and log it.

Balanced doesn’t mean doing everything perfectly. In functional wellness, balance refers to supporting multiple body systems together, not optimizing one area at the expense of others. Health is influenced by how nutrition, movement, sleep, stress regulation, and recovery interact over time. Balance includes: • Eating in a way that supports energy and digestion • Moving the body regularly without overtraining • Allowing adequate rest and recovery • Managing stress load rather than eliminating stress • Adjusting habits as life demands change A routine that looks “healthy” but leads to exhaustion, restriction, or chronic stress is not balanced—even if it appears disciplined. This is one of the biggest reasons I have adopted an 80%/20% split. 80% of the time, I do what I have committed to doing. 20% of the time, I allow myself to be human. Functional wellness prioritizes adaptability and sustainability, because the body is dynamic, not static. Beginner reflection: Ask, Does this routine support me across most days—or does it require constant pushing? Functional Living Academy ✨ Inside Functional Living Academy, we define balance through function, not extremes.
