RCS presentation reflection
This past week I had the privilege to speak in front of personal trainers, PT's, nutritionists, doctors, and even non-medical professionals all in the same room. An entire group all with a shared common interest: actively participating in a passionately health-focused community all driven to elevate the value provided to our clients and audience. An incredibly enriching environment buzzing with an energy that's palpable. I've been to many conferences in the health space, but this is easily the most raw and authentic one I've been part of (even as a casual observer in the past). It's called the REAL Coaches Summit for a reason. You get real actionable value-adds you can implement immediately into your business. It might be a concept, a principle, an AI tool, or at the very least, a motivational push to level up in some way. Last year, when I was first asked to speak I was intimidated and almost backed out. Imposter syndrome got me down. But I knew that committing to this would force me to do a few things: - Step out of my comfort zone and do something challenging for myself. Growth doesn't come from staying in the comfort zone, so I made the commitment to do it knowing it would force me to level up. - Ensure I know what I'm talking about, but more importantly how to deliver valuable information in a digestible way (tough to do with some of these mechanisms). A self-check of how well I can communicate this information is what I was after. Understanding it myself is one thing, but effectively communicating that information to someone else is another. - Be less of an introvert. Network, speak to people in-person and not behind a screen. - Place myself in a position that allows opportunity to flow both to me or through me, for someone else to benefit. I am always looking for ways to learn more, expand professionally, and bolster the core reasons I am in this space to begin with. This opportunity succeeded in checking all those boxes. I'll be back again next year, that I'm sure of.

Welcome!
If you found me through the Real Coaches Summit - THANK YOU. Thank you 100x over. That was my first solo speaking engagement and I hope you found value in what I had to share. I haven't been great with content or getting my voice out there. The reality is I've just spent the last several years busy with clients, studying, & actually doing the work. And really, if I'm being honest, my social platform has mostly been my own physique enhancing journey with a few educational posts sprinkled in. (I suck at marketing, but hey, I'm working on it). If you caught my presentation on the second day, you heard the story I told about how I helped my client find out he has a prolactinoma (brain tumor). Stories like that aren't on my social media, nobody would ever know. The point is, where I fail on social media I like to think I make up for in what matters... actually coaching people/providing value. And that's why meeting you all has been incredible, because I know that's where we all align (thanks Aram). I wish I had the time to speak with each of you 1-1. But, hopefully this space allows you to connect with me, ask questions, or find valuable resources you can use to leverage results and elevate your coaching game. This community is where I'll be unpacking the science, sharing the journey, and answering the questions there wasn't time for on stage. More to come! My ask on this post: Drop the one takeaway from the talk that hit hardest.

PUSH Week 6 recap - 12/7/24 Macros- TD (3): 250P / 700C / 70F NTD (2): 250P / 400C / 70F High Days (1): 250P / 340C / 50F + untracked meal Average hours slept: 7:57 Average steps: 8,801 Weight: 229.2 (average is 230.6) BP: 129/65 HR: 72 PEDs- (injection fx 7x/week) Test cyp: 800mg/week Mast E: 900mg/week Primo: 600mg/week NPP: 100mg/week 4iu GH qhs Rx: Rosuvastatin 5mg qad Ezetimibe 10mg qad Telmisartan 80mg qhs Nebivolol 2.5mg qhs Tadalafil 5mg qd OTC: A lot Split: - Monday: Chest / Tricep x2 / Bicep x1 Tuesday: Hams & Glutes / Back Wednesday: Glutes / Shoulders / Bicep Thurs: Rest Fri: Upper back /Shoulders / Arms Sat: Legs Cardio: Getting back to cardio slowly. Have been off big time. Life has been busy! I worked my way up with the gear protocol to be slightly higher than it is above but I didn't feel great and honestly the amount of volume I had to pin daily was exhausting. Since bringing things down I've felt better. My weight is pretty stable here but I need to work on consistently getting in the food at better times. I'll get busy and prolong my meal timing. This has also influenced my appetite overall. Just goes to show that even with the gear in place, there's no substitution for food. Goals this upcoming week are to improve step count (I've been less than 10k on average) continue to hit my cardio at least 4x/weekly for 20 minutes, and keep up with meal timing. I've altered my training a bit to focus on areas that need the most improvement- glutes and arms. Despite my weight not trending up much higher, I do feel like I'm solidifying my weight here. Don't get me wrong though, it still feels like a lot of weight when doing basic things haha. I'll pull labs here probably in January to see how things are looking and if I need to make any other adjustments. I'm having sinus surgery mid Jan and I'm looking forward to finally being able to breathe comfortably through my nose- and maybe smell things for once lol. I have a slightly deviated septum and my turbinates are hypertrophied - I honestly wouldn't be surprised if the GH played a role here.

Congrats Kraig!
Sharing a client win here. Kraig competed yesterday, entering in both Men's Physique and Classic Physique - this was his CP debut and he walked away with an overall in both!! We'll be dialing him in more for Nationals here in 5 weeks in an attempt to win his pro card. 😎 The side by side photos are from 6/20 to 11/7
