This morning, I saw the same mistake I see this in the gym almost every single day. At our gym, we have trainers and clients outside of our 18STRONG Crew. We also have a handful of clients who come to the gym to work out on their own...these are the...
This sounds bats*** crazy because you benefit more than anybody…by a HUGE margin. BUT, what would I have to pay you to transform your fitness/life in the next 8 weeks? $100…$1,000…$1,000,000? Well, our local St. Louis buddies over at 1st Phorm are putting up $300,000 for the few peeps who...
Last week, it was all about mobility. This week, let’s get huge. So, I get this question a lot: What is hypertrophy? It’s pronounced hi-per-troh-fee. And it’s just a fancy way of saying “building muscle.” For some reason, a lot of trainers and meatheads feel more important when they use...
This morning at exactly 7:32a, we marked the official beginning of MGF (Mandatory Golf Friday) season. 37 degrees at tee time was a little chilly, but it felt great. So this morning, I met one of my cousin’s buddy’s (Greg) who was very honorably discharged from the Navy after 3...
March Madness begins in less than 10minutes. But, before you completely check out for a weekend of bracket-busting frustration, let’s keep with our mobility theme this week, but with a twist. So, if you’ve been struggling with tight hips, shoulders, or any of our other “golf joints”… I get it....

Hey hey, Happy Friday my fellow golf, fitness, fun, and TPC nut! Lots to do today, so let’s jump right in… So, piggybacking on yesterday’s email, here’s a problem I’ve been seeing with far too many of our guys... The days that you don’t work out are NOT “cheat days!” ...
“Do you hate exercise?” “Do you hate dieting?” “Well, we’ve got a revolutionary system to get you shredded!” …said every fitness shyster on the internet. Thankfully, our Crew is smart enough to not fall for that line of BS. But, along the lines of not doing anything, I get this...
James Clear, the author of Atomic Habits (great read), introduced me to The 1 Percent Rule.When I said “introduced,” he and I weren’t sitting at the local tavern talking about life over a few cold suds.I mean I was reading some of his stuff and found it.Okay, so the crux of what I...
On Saturday night, we went to a really fun trivia night for one of the local high schools here in St. Louis. The categories were all over the board (I got the high school yearbook photo of Snoop Dogg correct:). And I realized something looking around the table… We all...
