#125 The 25/30 Rule...
Anytime someone says or thinks they're not seeing results (myself included), I ask If the 25/30 rule is being followed. 25/30x100 is 83%. If you're doing something 83% of the time, you should be seeing positive results when it comes to Sleep: 7-9 hours Nutrition: Tracking macros, eating home made...

It's a new year and some are still looking to find the right step to take with their health and nutrition habits. We've never been about cutting out a bunch of things from your diets or being extremely restrictive. Year after year we've seen that method work only to fail when people couldn't...

Hustle and Grind. You hear about it all the time and you see it on social media everywhere. How long can you keep going if you're always going full tilt? I know talking about recovery and taking time for yourself isn't sexy but even race cars need to come into the shop for a tune up or regular...
