Blue Chip Athletic Club by Blaise Curtis

If you’re a pilot, active duty military member, or busy professional who wants to build a body you’re proud of, a life you don’t hate, and habits that actually last, start your application to work with us here:https://bluechipathleticclub.com/program-applicationIn this birthday solo episode of the Blue Chip Athletic Club Podcast, Blaise turns 31 and shares “31 lessons from 31 years” – a mix of stories, hard-earned wisdom, and reminders he wishes he’d had a decade ago. He talks about the power of putting yourself out there (including how walking into a small mom-and-pop gym with zero certifications led to his coaching career), why courage shows up after you do hard things instead of before, and what a brutal 37‑minute plate-carry challenge taught him about grit and self-belief.From there, he dives into mindset and life lessons: why nobody actually has life “figured out,” how both the good and bad seasons eventually pass, and why you’ll regret the chances you don’t take far more than the ones that don’t go perfectly. Blaise shares stories about selling his car to buy an adventure van right before COVID, learning that not everyone will like you (and why that’s okay), and how your circle quietly drags you up or down as you become the average of the five people you spend the most time with.He also hits on themes that show up in every part of health and performance: strength as a superpower, the difference between knowledge and action (“knowledge is power, but action is change”), and the idea that we don’t rise to the level of our ability—we fall to the consistency of our habits. The back half of the episode focuses on relationships and leadership: using people’s names, making others feel seen, telling the people who matter that you love them, and recognizing that health really is the ultimate form of wealth when you think about your future 80‑year‑old self.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 / PilotBase pilot logbook and tools (free 3 months):https://logten.com/partner/logten-for-bluechip/DISCLAIMER: We are not healthcare professionals (doctors).

If you’re a pilot, active duty military member, or busy professional who’s tired of hearing about peptides, red light, and ice baths—but still doesn’t feel great in your own body—start your application to work with us here:https://bluechipathleticclub.com/program-applicationIn this solo episode of the Blue Chip Athletic Club Podcast, Blaise strips health back down to what actually matters. Instead of chasing every 2026 “biohack,” he walks through three simple habits he uses himself and with clients that can completely reshape your health and quality of life: consistent strength training, eating mostly protein + produce + water, and building a sleep environment that helps you actually recover. He explains why lean muscle mass is one of the strongest predictors of long-term health, how you can fight “Father Time” with just three focused lifting sessions a week, and why his personal goals now include dancing at his 80th birthday and never being picked last in sports.From there, Blaise breaks down his “protein, produce, and water—wash, rinse, repeat” framework for nutrition. He talks through how most U.S. grocery stores are laid out, why the healthiest stuff lives on the perimeter, and how small environment tweaks (where you put the chips vs. the fruit, how you plan dinners for the week) can quietly change what you reach for every day. Instead of obsessing over perfect macros, he gives you practical ways to eat like a healthy person without feeling like you’re on a diet 24/7.Finally, he dives into sleep—why it’s the most underrated performance drug and why you’d notice a week without sleep way faster than a week without workouts. Blaise shares how removing the TV from his bedroom, dimming lights, and building a simple bedtime routine (fiction at night, non‑fiction in the morning) transformed how quickly he falls asleep and how he feels. Along the way, he reminds you that in 2026, information isn’t the problem—action is—and even “micro wins” like putting on your shoes, driving to the gym, or walking in for 5 minutes are the first reps of a new identity.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 / PilotBase pilot logbook and tools (free 3 months):https://logten.com/partner/logten-for-bluechip/DISCLAIMER: We are not healthcare professionals (doctors).

If you’re a pilot, active duty military member, or busy former athlete who wants to look, move, and perform like an athlete again—not just “exercise” and hope for the best—start your application to work with us here:https://bluechipathleticclub.com/program-applicationIn this episode of the Blue Chip Athletic Club Podcast, Blaise is joined by Carly—a former multi‑sport athlete, kinesiology grad, online coach, and entrepreneur who helps women transition from “sport shape” to strong, confident, and capable in real life. Carly shares her origin story growing up in Scottsdale playing soccer and every sport she could touch, navigating the body-image and comparison traps so many young women face, and eventually heading to the University of Arkansas to study kinesiology and nutrition when she realized she could actually major in movement.From there, she talks about backpacking Europe, stumbling into a gym job to pay the bills, and discovering that coaching and online training combined her love of movement with a bigger vision of impact and freedom. Blaise and Carly dig into what happens when the structure of sport disappears: the confusion around how to train without a coach, how to shift from pure performance to physique goals, and why so many former athletes feel lost trying to “just lift” after years of team practices, conditioning, and strength work.They also unpack the difference between training for aesthetics versus training to be an “apex predator” in life—blending strength, conditioning, mobility, and longevity so you can look good, move well, and still do the stuff you love. Carly opens up about her own pursuit of bodybuilding, overtraining and patellar tendinitis, learning to pull back from “all-out” every set, and why even coaches need coaches. If you’re the kind of person who still thinks in terms of practices, game days, and team standards, this conversation will resonate.If you want to check out her social media, find her: https://www.instagram.com/carlyg.fitListen 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 / PilotBase pilot logbook and tools (free 3 months):https://logten.com/partner/logten-for-bluechip/DISCLAIMER: We are not healthcare professionals (doctors).

If you’re a pilot, active duty military member, or busy professional who’s tired of starting and stopping your health journey—and you want this summer to be different—start your application to work with us (and to be considered for Project Poolside) here:https://bluechipathleticclub.com/program-applicationIn this solo episode of the Blue Chip Athletic Club Podcast, Blaise speaks directly to the “yo‑yo” crowd: the people who go hard in the gym for a few weeks or months, then fall completely off when life punches them in the mouth. He shares his own wake-up call from naval flight training, when he tipped the scale at 230 pounds—stronger than ever, but too heavy for the T‑6 ejection seat—and realized his training and nutrition were taking him away from the life and performance he actually wanted.Using a simple road trip analogy (New York to LA as your long-term health vision), Blaise explains why most people treat one flat tire—one bad weekend, one stressful season, one vacation—as a reason to slash the other three tires and abandon the journey. Instead, he walks through how to “change the tire” and keep going: having a Plan B workout when time is tight, finding small wins on travel days, and thinking like a “health person” so that choices like taking the stairs or reaching for lean protein become the default, not a huge act of willpower.Blaise also unpacks why we overestimate what we can do in 2–3 months and deeply underestimate what’s possible in 1–3 years when we stop self-sabotaging and start acting in line with the identity we want. He closes by inviting listeners into Project Poolside—an 8‑week summer transformation program built to be that jumpstart and structured “road trip” for people who are serious about changing how they look, move, and feel before summer. You’ll get a written training plan in the app, nutrition coaching, weekly group calls, and high accountability, while still staying in the driver’s seat of your own journey.Apply for coaching and Project Poolside here:https://bluechipathleticclub.com/program-applicationListen 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 / PilotBase pilot logbook and tools (free 3 months):https://logten.com/partner/logten-for-bluechip/DISCLAIMER: We are not healthcare professionals (doctors).

If you’re a pilot, active duty military member, or busy professional who wants to look, move, and feel better heading into summer, start your application to work with us (and to be considered for Project Poolside) here:https://bluechipathleticclub.com/program-applicationIn this solo episode of the Blue Chip Athletic Club Podcast, Blaise hits record while feeling under the weather and still shows up to talk about what matters: doing what you can with the day in front of you. He shares a favorite MLK quote—“If you can’t fly, run. If you can’t run, walk. If you can’t walk, crawl, but by all means keep moving forward.”—and unpacks how that applies when you’re sick, tired, injured, or just in a tough season of life. You’ll hear him reflect on gratitude, perspective, and the fact that you never have more time than you do right now to change your trajectory, whether you’re 16, 36, or 76.From there, Blaise shifts into practical nutrition “hacks” from the lens of a certified nutrition coach—simple moves you can make as a busy adult that actually move the needle instead of adding more complexity. He talks about realistic swaps, environment design (what’s in your pantry and fridge), and how to think about summer coming up without falling into extreme diets or all-or-nothing thinking. The goal is to give you tools you can plug into your real life, not a rigid meal plan you’ll abandon in two weeks.Blaise also officially announces Project Poolside—an 8‑week pre-summer transformation program kicking off April 20th. The challenge is capped at 10 people to keep the coaching high-touch. Inside Project Poolside you’ll get: a structured training program delivered through the Blue Chip app, custom 1:1 nutrition coaching, weekly group accountability calls, education around sleep/stress/recovery, and prize giveaways to keep things fun. If you want to roll into summer looking, moving, and feeling like a different person—and you’re willing to be coached—this is your shot.Apply for coaching and Project Poolside here:https://bluechipathleticclub.com/program-applicationListen 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 / PilotBase pilot logbook and tools (free 3 months):https://logten.com/partner/logten-for-bluechip/DISCLAIMER: We are not healthcare professionals (doctors).

If you’re a pilot, active duty military member, or busy professional who wants to look, move, and feel like a different person by summer, start your application to work with us here:https://bluechipathleticclub.com/program-applicationIn this solo episode of the Blue Chip Athletic Club Podcast, Blaise breaks down what most adults are missing when it comes to health, nutrition, and training—and why the numbers around obesity, high blood pressure, and declining mobility should be a wake-up call, not background noise. He talks about how quickly things can slide in your 30s and 40s, and why waiting for the “perfect time” to start is exactly how you end up unable to get out of a beach chair and play with your kids or grandkids.From there, Blaise walks through the core mistakes he sees in most adults’ approach to health: vague goals, information overload, obsessing over hacks like cold plunges and red light while ignoring the basics, and trying to white-knuckle nutrition with no real habit or environment strategy. He explains how he coaches nutrition through a habits-based approach instead of rigid meal plans—using simple behavior frameworks like the “elephant, rider, and path” to help you change late-night snacking, energy drink habits, and pantry setups in ways that actually stick in a busy life.Finally, Blaise introduces Project Poolside—an 8‑week, full-bore health and body composition challenge designed to have you show up this summer looking, moving, and feeling like a different person. Inside Project Poolside you’ll get app-delivered training programmed for you, individualized nutrition coaching, education around sleep, stress, and recovery, weekly team calls, and a tight-knit group for accountability. The challenge is capped at 10 serious people, it’s a paid program with a heavy discount for existing Blue Chip app members, and it comes with a simple promise: if you show up, follow the plan, stay engaged, and don’t look/move/feel better after 8 weeks, Blaise will give you your money back.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 / PilotBase pilot logbook and tools (free 3 months):https://logten.com/partner/logten-for-bluechip/DISCLAIMER: We are not healthcare professionals (doctors).

If you’re a pilot, active duty military member, or busy professional who wants to be fitter and more capable, start your application to work with us here:https://bluechipathleticclub.com/program-applicationIn this episode of the Blue Chip Athletic Club Podcast, Blaise is joined by Chris Costa—founder of Costa Ludas, former Coast Guard Boatswain’s Mate, and one of the most influential figures in modern firearms training. Chris walks through his journey from 12 years in the Coast Guard (TACLET, MLE School, International Training Division) to private security work in Virginia Beach, to helping launch Magpul’s training division, and eventually stepping out on his own to build Costa Ludas.​They dive into what it was like operating before there was a dedicated Maritime Enforcement (ME) rate, how TACLET became an active duty port security unit supporting events like the 1996 Olympics, and why Chris chose to leave at 12 years instead of riding the system to retirement. He explains how the training world drifted into “sterile” checkbox courses, how the Magpul Dynamics era shook things up with more realistic, standards-driven content, and why slow, steady growth with high standards beats chasing shortcuts.​Chris also breaks down what Costa Ludas offers today—carbine, handgun, shotgun, CQB, vehicle/counter-ambush work, and small-team tactics—and why fundamentals, decision-making under stress, and honest feedback matter more than cool-guy drills on Instagram.

If you’re a pilot, military member, or former athlete who wants to look, move, and feel your best—without sacrificing your flying career—start your application here:https://bluechipathleticclub.com/program-applicationIn this episode of the Blue Chip Athletic Club Podcast, Blaise sits down with Steve Gray, a fellow Coast Guard C‑27J pilot, Cirrus flight instructor, Vision Jet type-rated pilot, and professional engineer.Steve shares his path from growing up on Army bases, to flying C‑130s and T‑6s, to buying his own Cirrus in 2020 and turning a personal passion for general aviation into a side business doing flight instruction and aircraft management in the Cirrus ecosystem.They dig into what it’s like to “double hustle” as an active duty Coast Guard aviator and GA instructor while also holding a PE license and raising a family—and how he uses the airplane not just for work, but to create more time and experiences with his wife and kids.Steve also talks about his athletic background (hockey, D3 cross-country, and track), the blunt orthopedic appointment that forced him to stop running cold-turkey due to severe cartilage loss, and how he rebuilt his cardio identity around cycling instead of pounding his knees into early arthritis.Blaise and Steve then zoom out to the bigger pilot health picture:Why so many pilots and ex-military aviators end up either in excellent shape or 50–70 pounds heavier with almost no one in the “middle.”How events like Oshkosh (or long trips) make it hard but not impossible to eat well and move, and why 25,000+ steps a day still counts as getting it done.The reality that health is the one thing you can’t buy—even if you can afford a Vision Jet—and why consistency with movement, sleep, and food beats any quick fix.If you’re an airline pilot, GA owner, or military flyer trying to balance crazy schedules, jet lag, family life, and staying out of the “retirement weight gain” club, this episode will give you perspective, ideas, and a nudge to take the long game seriously.Find Steve's info here:https://nimbusas.com/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 / PilotBase pilot logbook and tools (free 3 months):https://logten.com/partner/logten-for-bluechip/DISCLAIMER: We are not healthcare professionals (doctors).

If you’re ready to look, move, and feel your best—even when life feels like a construction zone—start your application here:https://bluechipathleticclub.com/program-applicationIn this short solo episode of the Blue Chip Athletic Club Podcast, Blaise checks in from a torn-up garage gym and an active kitchen renovation to talk about something every busy adult faces: the temptation to punt your workout “just for today.” With tools, lumber, and dust everywhere, a full-time Coast Guard flying schedule, and a growing online coaching business, he walks through the exact thought process of choosing to train anyway—and why that decision matters more than the perfect plan.Blaise shares how he modified his original 45‑minute run goal into a 30‑minute session with a 10‑minute warm-up and a series of 10‑second sprint intervals with 50‑second recoveries. The point isn’t the numbers; it’s the contract you keep with yourself. He speaks directly to pilots, active duty military members, and former athletes about recognizing when you genuinely need rest versus when you’re just letting “I’ll start tomorrow” win.If you want to be the person who can still sprint to first base, play pickup sports, dance at your 80th birthday, and run around with grandkids, this episode is a reminder that consistency beats perfection. Wide‑lens training—running, lifting, jumping, moving laterally, and staying powerful—starts with showing up, even when your space, schedule, or life isn’t ideal.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).

If you’re ready to look, move, and feel your best—and you want coaching built for real life (and real schedules)—start your application here:https://bluechipathleticclub.com/program-applicationIn this episode of the Blue Chip Athletic Club Podcast, Blaise sits down with Dr. Jimmy “James” King—strength and conditioning coach, Coast Guard tactical athlete trainer, and lifelong student of human performance. Jimmy shares his journey from Texas to college basketball at Texas A&M–Corpus Christi, and how the demands of collegiate athletics ignited his passion for strength training, performance, and the science of exercise.We talk about identity after sport, why so many people get stuck in fitness myths, and how tactical athletes and military members can train smarter for longevity, readiness, and real-world performance. Jimmy breaks down what he’s learned through years of coaching in the Coast Guard community and through advanced education in exercise science/kinesiology and doctoral-level work—plus why the best coaches stay humble: the more you learn, the more you realize there’s still more to understand.If you’re a pilot, active duty military member, or former athlete who wants evidence-based training, better recovery, and sustainable results (without the ego-driven programs), this episode will help you level up.Find Jimmy Here: https://www.instagram.com/learn.with.jim/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).

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).

Malcolm shares his journey from identity crisis after sport, to the classroom, to speaking on stages and with organizations like the Kevin Love Fund, helping kids and communities slow down in a fast-paced world.We talk about how to introduce breathwork and mindfulness to kids without it feeling “weird,” why routines beat one-off tactics, and how simple tools like a 2–4–6 breathing pattern can shift a child (or adult) from stressed to calm in a few minutes. Malcolm also shares powerful stories from the classroom, including former students using affirmations and breathing on their own during stressful moments—and even reporting changes in their heart rate and how they talk to themselves.If you’re a parent, coach, teacher, or former athlete who’s ever struggled with identity, stress, or feeling “always on,” this episode will give you practical tools to build a more resilient mind and help the next generation do the same.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).

If you’re looking to elevate your health (and your business) to the next level, reach out to us at:https://bluechipathleticclub.comIn this episode of the Blue Chip Athletic Club Podcast, Blaise sits down with Pat Darby—founder of Sin City CFO and Darby Wealth Planning—to break down the money side of being a fitness entrepreneur. Pat explains the difference between tax prep (recording the past) and proactive tax strategy (planning ahead), why there’s no extension on tax payments even if you extend paperwork, and the “silent killer” for new business owners: self-employment tax.You’ll learn the first best move for brand-new entrepreneurs (separate business bank account + card), what you can and can’t write off, and why an LLC is mainly a legal/asset-protection tool—not a tax strategy. Pat also breaks down when an S-Corp actually starts to make sense (often around ~$50K net profit), how to think about quarterly taxes, and how business owners can legally pull levers that W-2 employees don’t have access to.We also go into wealth-building: how Pat helps clients lower taxes, increase net profit, and then invest intentionally (including the concept of self-directed retirement accounts and why big institutions often won’t even bring it up). If you’re an online coach, gym owner, or health pro who wants to keep more of what you earn and build wealth without getting blindsided every April, this is a must-listen.Connect with Pat:Website: https://www.darbyba.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thepatdarby/Podcast: https://www.darbyba.com/podcastsMore from Blue Chip:Podcast hub: https://bluechipathleticclub.com/podcastCoaching & programs: https://bluechipathleticclub.comApp (first month free): https://bluechipathleticclub.com/free-month-trialPartners & 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/feed​LogTen Pro pilot logbook (free 3 months):https://logten.com/partner/logten-for-bluechip/DISCLAIMER: We are not healthcare professionals (doctors).

They go deep on Cavan’s origin story—growing up in New York, music school and band life, partying, nearly failing out, and hitting 300 lbs before one “no” from a lacrosse coach sparked a complete turnaround. Cavan shares how he lost weight, rebuilt his grades, became a captain, and transitioned from retail management in NYC into coaching full-time in the CrossFit world.From there, the conversation shifts into entrepreneurship: building a mobile training business, scaling to a 500+ client/month seven-figure operation, and then choosing to burn it down when success didn’t feel like success anymore. Cavan breaks down what he learned from closing a thriving business, taking 2025 to soul-search, writing a book, and now building a new mission-driven business with his fiancée—helping online entrepreneurs organize their life and business from the inside out.Connect with Cavan:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cavantv_/Business: https://mpfcollective.com/thmgpt?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bioIf this episode hits home, follow/subscribe and leave a 5-star review.More from Blue Chip:Podcast hub: https://bluechipathleticclub.com/podcastCoaching & programs: https://bluechipathleticclub.comFollow: https://www.instagram.com/bluechipathleticclub/ | https://www.tiktok.com/@bluechipathleticclubApp (first month free): https://bluechipathleticclub.com/free-month-trialPartners:1st Phorm: https://1stphorm.com/66bf90e5bed64Sweet Profections (code BLUECHIP10): https://sweetprofections.com/?ref=mhcptczoBuilt Different (code BLAISE25): https://www.builtdifferentcommunity.com/feedLogTen Pro (free 3 months): https://logten.com/partner/logten-for-bluechip/DISCLAIMER: We are not healthcare professionals (doctors).

They dive into why Brady stepped away from the noise of social media to write, how his family’s story of trauma and recovery shaped the message of the book, and what it means to live from “True North” instead of getting pulled by everyone else’s expectations. You’ll hear Brady talk about people-pleasing, filtering your truth to keep the peace, and the cost of silencing what you know in your heart is right, along with how fitness, spirituality, plant medicine, mentorship, and nervous-system work all intersect when you’re trying to become a more grounded man, coach, or leader.

In this episode of the Blue Chip Athletic Club Podcast, Blaise checks in from a cold Christmas Eve walk in New Jersey to break down what it really means to train toward your goals, not just copy what looks cool online. He shares why he doesn’t train like a bodybuilder or a pure mobility/animal flow coach, and instead focuses on staying athletic enough to play beer league sports, get off the floor with family, and move well for decades to come.You’ll hear how to reverse-engineer your training from the life you want at 60–80 years old, why fitness is a “perishable skill” you can’t turn off, and how to find a sustainable pace (your “forever clip”) with workouts, nutrition, and lifestyle instead of yo-yoing between all-in weeks and blowout weekends. Blaise also talks about aesthetics as the “sizzle” that might get you in the door—but why the real win is building habits that let you look, move, and feel your best year after year.In This Episode You’ll Learn:How to align your training style with what you actually want your body to do in real lifeThe tradeoffs between extreme “Rambo shredded” goals and long-term, athletic longevityWhy fitness, strength, and mobility are skills that fade if you stop practicingWhat it looks like to find a training and nutrition rhythm you can sustain forever (your “forever clip”)Why former athletes, pilots, and “beer league” athletes need to rethink how they train as adultsWork with Blue Chip Athletic Club:Coaching & programs: https://bluechipathleticclub.comListen & Subscribe:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/blue-chip-athletic-club/id1732357083Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6UYmFwk9cFR1ySLtwwbpEZYouTube podcast feed: https://www.youtube.com/@bluechipathleticclub/podcastsConnect with Blaise & Blue Chip:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bluechipathleticclub/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@bluechipathleticclubFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/p/Blue-Chip-Athletic-Club-by-Blaise-Curtis-61550958014297/Questions?

In this episode of the Blue Chip Athletic Club Podcast, I sit down with Jordan to unpack what happens when your identity gets tied to performance, the military, and your body—then injury and life blow it all up. We walk through his journey from a not-so-athletic kid in Florida, to Navy aviation ordnanceman, to dealing with depression, suicidal thoughts, and a brutal back injury that left him unable to walk without help. We talk about how structure disappears when you leave the military, why numbing out never fixes the problem, and how community (shout out to Good Vibes Run Club) can be the bridge back to yourself.In This Episode You’ll Learn:Why losing structure after the military can wreck your routines and mental healthHow injury, weight gain, and a breakup pushed Jordan to the edge—and what pulled him backHow depression can feel day-to-day, and why “just tough it out” doesn’t workHow movement, therapy skills, and community helped him rebuild confidenceSimple mindset shifts to keep training when life doesn’t look like InstagramWork with Blue Chip Athletic Club:Coaching & programs: https://bluechipathleticclub.comListen & Subscribe:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/blue-chip-athletic-club/id1732357083Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6UYmFwk9cFR1ySLtwwbpEZYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@bluechipathleticclub/podcastsConnect with Blaise & Blue Chip:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bluechipathleticclub/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@bluechipathleticclubFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/p/Blue-Chip-Athletic-Club-by-Blaise-Curtis-61550958014297/Questions?

We get into how to lower the bar just enough on hard days so you don’t disappear, how to think in 100-episode / 100-day chunks, and why boring, repeatable actions beat flashy starts every time.If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly restarting—fired up for a few weeks, then wiped out by life—this one is for you. My goal is to help you build something sustainable: simple systems, anchor habits, and a plan that fits real life instead of fantasy schedules.At Blue Chip Athletic Club, my mission is to help former athletes, pilots, military members, and high performers build strong, durable bodies they can rely on for decades—not just for a 6-week challenge.If this episode hits home, subscribe and drop a comment.

I talk about why sustainable habits beat short-term hacks every time, how to think about “can I do this forever?” before jumping into a diet or drug, and what it really means to treat your body like the one car you have to drive for life.At Blue Chip Athletic Club, my mission is to help former athletes, pilots, military members, and high performers build strong, durable bodies they can rely on for decades—not just for a 6-week challenge.Listen to more episodes here:https://bluechipathleticclub.com/podcastWork with me and the Blue Chip Athletic Club:https://bluechipathleticclub.comFollow me on social:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bluechipathleticclub/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/p/Blue-Chip-Athletic-Club-by-Blaise-Curtis-61550958014297/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@bluechipathleticclubThe Blue Chip App: Fitness for Real LifeDesigned for:Pilots with unpredictable schedulesFormer athletes who miss structureBusy parents who need flexible workoutsInside the app:Pilot-friendly programsStrength templates for former athletesShort workouts for chaotic daysMobility for low back, hips, and shouldersMeal planning toolsWeekly live callsA supportive communityYour first month is completely free, then it’s less than a dollar a day:https://bluechipathleticclub.com1stPhorm supplements we trust:https://1stphorm.com/66bf90e5bed64Sweet Profections protein cookies (code BLUECHIP10 for 10% off):https://sweetprofections.com/?ref=mhcptczoBuilt Different Mastermind (code BLAISE25 for $25 off your first month):https://www.builtdifferentcommunity.com/feedLogTen Pro – free 3 months for pro pilots:https://logten.com/partner/logten-for-bluechip/If you like this episode, follow and leave a five star review.

Azul and I talk about catching negative thoughts before they spiral (yes, even when it’s about that cookie you didn’t mean to eat 🍪), breaking old behavior loops, and learning how to pause long enough to make better decisions.I also share why I believe even the best program — the perfect training split or macro plan — means nothing without the belief, mindset, and behavior change behind it. You can ask AI for a fitness plan, but it can’t teach you self-trust, accountability, or human connection — that’s where coaching comes in.If you’ve ever struggled with all-or-nothing thinking, self-criticism, or the “I’ll start again Monday” cycle, this one’s for you.In This Episode You’ll Learn:Why mindset and self-compassion are the foundation for lasting resultsHow vulnerability and empathy create stronger client-coach relationshipsThe skill of “catching the thought” before it becomes a spiralHow to build awareness around triggers like boredom, stress, and procrastinationWhy belief and behavior modification matter more than the perfect programHow community and connection become the real “magic pill” for consistencyTimestamps:00:00 – Introduction & Guest Reintroduction01:47 – The Shift to Mindset and Self-Compassion06:08 – Building a Coaching Toolkit10:01 – The Importance of Empathy in Coaching14:00 – Navigating Client Relationships & Expectations18:01 – The Journey of Self-Discovery and Accountability27:50 – Rethinking Health and Fitness Narratives35:56 – The Importance of Community in Coaching43:51 – The Basics: Consistency Over Trends47:59 – Mental Resilience in Fitness and Life53:39 – The Power of Self-Talk and Body Image57:54 – Strategies for Overcoming Negative Self-Talk01:02:04 – The Role of Mindfulness and Meditation01:07:00 – Breaking Patterns and Creating Awareness01:15:37 – Community and Connection in Personal GrowthCheck out Azul's Page here: https://www.instagram.com/azulcorajoria/If you like this episode, like, subscribe, and leave us a five-star review — it really helps us grow and reach more people who want to improve their health and wellness.We are not healthcare professionals (doctors), nor do we claim to be.

I share how I use SMART goals in my own training and coaching to simplify fitness, create accountability, and build habits that actually stick.Here’s the framework:✅ Specific — make your goal clear and detailed✅ Measurable — track progress with real data✅ Attainable — challenge yourself, but keep it realistic✅ Relevant — connect it to your bigger purpose✅ Time-bound — give it a deadline so it drives actionWe’ll talk about how your goals evolve as your life changes, how to find balance between ambition and sustainability, and why simplicity often beats intensity.Timestamps:00:00 – Introduction to Goal Setting05:49 – Understanding the SMART Framework12:12 – Long-Term Goals & Personal AspirationsIf you like this episode like, subscribe, and leave us a five star review, we really appreciate it and it helps us grow and help more and more people improve their health and wellness!We are not healthcare professionals (doctors), nor do we claim to be.

Whether you’re a pilot, parent, or busy professional, the best path forward is the one built for you — with structure, flexibility, and support.If you’re looking for a clear system to help you train smarter and fuel better, this is your sign to check out the Blue Chip Athletic Club App — the best pilot nutrition and training app designed for people who want real results that last.If you like this episode like, subscribe, and leave us a five star review, we really appreciate it and it helps us grow and help more and more people improve their health and wellness!We are not healthcare professionals (doctors), nor do we claim to be.

Between long duty days, changing schedules, and limited recovery windows, finding time for the gym can feel impossible.But here’s the truth: you don’t need endless hours to see real results.

The best program is the one you can stick to.As a Coast Guard pilot and fitness coach, I’ve learned that the secret to long-term success isn’t perfection — it’s consistency and behavior modification. You don’t need another extreme plan or crash program. You need a system that helps you train smarter, stay accountable, and actually enjoy the process.We’ll talk about how enjoyment drives adherence, why motivation fades but systems stick, and how the Blue Chip Athletic Club App was built to help pilots and high performers train anywhere in the world — even with unpredictable schedules and limited equipment.If you’re looking for the best fitness app for pilots, or you’ve struggled to stay consistent with your health and training, this episode will show you how to make progress that lasts.🎧 In this episode, I cover:✈️ Why consistency matters more than the perfect plan💪 How to modify behaviors that impact your health long-term🧠 Why enjoyment leads to adherence in fitness programs⏱️ How to build a system that fits your schedule — not fights it🔥 What makes the Blue Chip Athletic Club App the best fitness app for pilots🎧 Listen now on:🔹 Spotify🔹 Apple Podcasts🔹 YouTube👉 Learn more or start your training at bluechipathleticclub.comIf you like this episode like, subscribe, and leave us a five star review, we really appreciate it and it helps us grow and help more and more people improve their health and wellness!We are not healthcare professionals (doctors), nor do we claim to be.

Without behavior modification, no amount of money, motivation, or macros will create lasting change.Coaching isn’t just about workouts—it’s about rewiring habits, accountability, and mindset so the changes actually stick.If you’ve ever wondered why change feels temporary, this episode will hit home.🎧 Listen now on:🔹 Spotify🔹 Apple Podcasts🔹 YouTubeIf you like this episode like, subscribe, and leave us a five star review, we really appreciate it and it helps us grow and help more and more people improve their health and wellness!We are not healthcare professionals (doctors), nor do we claim to be.

I see it all the time: people want to make progress, but the constant stream of opposing information leaves them stuck, second-guessing every decision.As a Coast Guard pilot and master nutrition coach, I’ve experienced firsthand how tough it is to separate science from noise — especially when you’re balancing a demanding schedule, long duty days, and limited time to train.
