Purposeful Fitness

It is often said that CONSISTENCY is the key to progress. But I believe consistency is a consequence, not a cause. Imagine you are trying to be consistent in something that is REALLY hard, or something that you dislike, you probably would have trouble staying consistent.

Instead, I look for the reasons why people would remain consistent, and these are the 5 traits of people who would ultimately remain consistent enough to succeed in their fitness journey!

Sharing your goals is one of the most powerful tools in being able to accomplish them. It gives you accountability and it helps you materialize your objectives. Although it is very important that you share your goals with the right people, because they can encourage you or they can discourage you.

By sharing some of my goals I hope you guys become more comfortable voicing out your own goals, and if you need help or accountability, reach out!

It's January 1st 2025, so as we close out 2024, I like to reflect on what has been the biggest lessons I've learned in that year. There have been many but since most are very specific to me, I chose some that everybody could relate to. Here are my big 3 takeaways from 2024!

This one is a no brainer. We all know how important sleep is and we now have many tools to help us with getting better quality sleep. But it’s not always simple to make time for a good night’s rest.

I coach a lot of people who fit in one of these categories. But, just like in training, it’s important to know what tool you’re using for a job so you can get the desired result. So if you’re wondering between which one to do (either in fight or in training) reach out and I can help!

This is the first personal-ish podcast I’ve made here. It briefly recaps my judo competitions in Dallas on Nov. 23 and 24. I competed in the Dallas Open and the President’s Cup in the Brown-belt and below, and Black Belt divisions, respectively. As a green belt, I learned a lot and am excited for my next competition!

The second most important exercise I have clients to is one called IKIGAI. It comes from the Japanese, and it means “reason for being”. Finding yours might be the most important thing you do in life.

What does it take to live out your dreams? 1. We must know what your dreams are. 2. We must have a clear path toward them. 3. We must take risks. 4. We must know how to deal with failure.

This step-by-step approach is the same approach I take with my clients. “My perfect day” exercise, builds the plan. The training programs builds the resilience, endurance, capacity and confidence needed to take risks.

Why should you not try to live your best life? Start today!

Most people tend to either follow a program or wing it when it comes to their training. What I’m trying to change in the fitness industry is to help people realize that what they do matters, how they do it matters, why they do it matters.

All of these require you (the client) to have an ACTIVE role in your training/ nutrition/ lifestyle. The goal of the coach is to provide the education necessary for the client to play that role.

If you currently don’t know exactly how what you’re doing (or should be doing) and how it’ll help you with your goals, reach out!

Nutrition is just the first step in the Pillar of Digestion. Most people over analyze what they eat and care less about what happens to the food once it enters the body. You are not what you eat, but you are what you eat, digest, absorb, transport, utilize, and excrete. Digestion is a process that requires multiple systems to be working properly.
