If you’re ready to look, move, and feel your best—without living in the gym—start your application here:https://bluechipathleticclub.com/program-applicationIn this solo episode of the Blue Chip Athletic Club Podcast, Blaise breaks down one of the most common questions he gets from busy pilots, active duty military members, and former athletes: how many days per week should you actually train to lose fat, build strength, and feel good again?Blaise shares a real conversation with a Coast Guard maintainer juggling a demanding schedule, two young kids, and an upcoming 8-month deployment for his spouse—and why “more” (fasted cardio every morning plus 2-hour lifts) isn’t always the answer when life gets chaotic. He digs into what really drives results outside the gym—sleep, recovery, daily movement, and habits like alcohol intake—and why an all-or-nothing mentality is the fastest way to burn out.You’ll also hear Blaise’s practical baseline recommendation for most adults: three strength-focused sessions per week (about 30 minutes each), built around simple movement patterns you can sustain all year. He outlines an easy weekly structure (push/pull for upper and lower body), what to do on “off” days (walk, ruck, mobility, quick movement breaks), and how to choose training you actually enjoy so you’ll stay consistent for the long haul.If you’ve ever tried to “fix everything” with an extreme plan, this episode will help you simplify, get honest about what’s holding you back, and build a routine you can execute—even with a military schedule.Listen to more episodes here:https://bluechipathleticclub.com/podcastPartners & Resources1st Phorm supplements:https://1stphorm.com/66bf90e5bed64Sweet Profections protein cookies (code BLUECHIP10 for 10% off):https://sweetprofections.com/?ref=mhcptczoBuilt Different Mastermind (code BLAISE25 for $25 off first month):https://www.builtdifferentcommunity.com/feedLogTen Pro pilot logbook (free 3 months):https://logten.com/partner/logten-for-bluechip/DISCLAIMER: We are not healthcare professionals (doctors).
