A LONG OVERDUE DISCUSSION --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Most people think the secret to building muscle or losing fat comes down to one thing: calories. Ask around and you’ll hear the same advice: “Eat more calories than you burn to build muscle. Eat fewer calories than you burn to lose fat.” And while that’s true—to a degree—it’s not the full story. Because it’s not just about how much you eat. It’s also about what you eat and, most importantly, how those foods affect your hormones. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Calories & Macros: Only Part of the Equation Yes, tracking calories ensures you don’t under- or over-eat. Yes, hitting your proteins, carbs, and fats is critical for fueling workouts, recovery, and daily energy. But here’s the real question: * Will those carbs and fats be stored as body fat… or burned for energy? * Will that protein go toward building new muscle… or be converted into sugar or fat instead? The answer? Your hormones decide. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hormones: The Third Dimension of Nutrition Your hormones act as the “traffic controllers” of your metabolism. They decide where calories go, how nutrients are used, and whether your body shifts toward fat storage or lean muscle growth. This is why two people can eat the same diet but experience drastically different results. It’s not just the numbers—it’s the hormonal response. That’s why food quality, nutrient timing, and specific food choices matter just as much as total intake. If your goal is a lean, muscular, and energetic body, you can’t afford to overlook the hormonal dimension of nutrition.

In a day and age when subscribing to a newsletter seems old school, i cannot deny the timing of anrticles annd writing released and how they impact people at the right time in their life. This one hit for me, tell me if it hits you too. Thanks again James Clear 3 Ideas From Me I. "Praise others. It will bring them peace of mind. Do not expect others to praise you. It will bring you peace of mind." II. "We often think that we want an open road and the ability to choose any direction for ourselves. But sometimes, what we need is a tunnel that can reduce our choices and send us in a focused direction." III. "The person who learns the most in any classroom is the teacher. If you really want to learn a topic, then "teach" it. Write a book. Teach a class. Build a product. Start a company. The act of making something will force you to learn more deeply than reading ever will."

A while back, in May i felt like we were on track to get organized. To culminate, educate and dominate with our vision for Skool. Then we got busy. Demands poured in like water in an over-loaded canoe in the middle of a raging river. All angles made it feel impossible to metabolize, and we made it worse by deciding to switch platforms and flip the table on some old ways. Fuck it. Just get rid of it- start over. At one point it felt dangerous like putting coca~cola into mamas homemade chili. But after holding on tight, some simmering, the chaos turned into alignment. We starting to see our strategy formulate working systems and eventually signs of radical progress. I met a dude named @Will Nemo from Canada that found us through a Skool search somehow, and shared his brilliance of a freedom forged mission to take back self sovereignty for and by the people of Canada… and beyond. We were on the same page 💯 . Even though i wanted to help his mission i knew i was at max capacity, and if things didn’t come easy, i was going to have to forfeit my coaching position, and involvement for the time being. Sometimes all that you wish to do in life must be cast into a timeline that spreads wildly into the sights beyond your patience. I know that has been the case for me. However pressing the boundaries has been one of the great pleasures of my sanity; riding the tight line between madness and self-defined laziness. So hear me when i say, i see you Will… and all those here with big dreams. All that you wish to do in life. I want it too. Continue to be a good example of what a recipe of patience, creation, a demand for excellence, delusions of grandeur, and total exhaustion through your work can create. It’s not disaster even though it teases the edge sometimes. Life is as magical as it is cruel. You can make quantum leaps that start like a pebble washing down small downhill stream …into a rapid… and soon as you make it rain… a flash flood.

Friends its been a minute, as we continue to expand our total vision for Grounded Strength & Ground Up Living, I find inspirations that I think are worth sharing. Even simple ones that feel like you've heard them 1000x. However hears something you've maybe never heard...Repetition is the enemy of scarcity, and the army of habit. Enjoy
