DAY 180: 40 YEARS YOUNG 💪🏿💪🏿

Today is Friday, June 5th. Today I am officially 40 years young. And today is Day 180 of my 40th Birthday Bulk Challenge. I started this journey on Monday, December 8th with two goals:

Number one, become the heaviest I have ever been while still maintaining my conditioning. Mission accomplished.

Number two, deadlift 405 pounds for a minimum of 20 reps. And that is what you are watching right now. But I almost failed this goal. This was actually my second attempt.

On my first attempt, I made a few mistakes. I shortened my warm-up to conserve energy, which was a bad idea. Then my planned 5-minute rest after 365 turned into 25 minutes, so I was pretty cold by the time I pulled 405. And once I got tired, I changed my usual strategy.

Normally, I rest at the top of the deadlift because mentally, I have not let go of the weight yet. But on the first attempt, I rested at the bottom, psyched myself out, and stopped at 16 reps. I almost called it quits. But I had told everybody my goal was 405 for 20. So I sucked it up and tried again. And that is the lesson.

Put your goals out there because accountability matters. And never change your strategy on PR day. Do not change your warm-up. Do not change your rest. Do not change the mental approach that got you there. Run trial attempts first. When it is time to perform, you should be executing, not experimenting.

405 for 20 reps is done. The 180-day birthday bulk is complete. The 40th Birthday Bulk Challenge is complete.

05/29/2026

It's Day 173 of my "40th Birthday Bulk" Challenge. It's Friday, May 29th, we're exactly one week away from my 40th Birthday, and this is me hitting a 555-pound Deadlift at a 185-pound Bodyweight! I'm also on a 5-Day Fast. If I was fully fed, I'd go a little heavier, but for today, 5-5-5 seems like a good OCD number to stop at! 💪🏿💪🏿

405x5 on a “bad legs” day.

When I woke up this morning, my legs felt like they were filled with lead. Heavy. Weak. Sluggish. The kind of morning where even bodyweight squats felt like they were going to be a negotiation. So instead of forcing a PR, chasing ego, or pretending recovery doesn’t matter, I adjusted the plan. I lightened the load and hit 405 pounds for 5 comfortable reps. And honestly? Not bad considering how the day started.

This is the part of training that most people don’t talk about enough: not every workout needs to be a personal record. Not every squat session needs to be all-out. Not every heavy lower-body workout needs to be a war against the barbell. Sometimes the smartest thing you can do is respect what your body is telling you, reduce the load, focus on clean reps, keep the pattern sharp, and live to fight another day.

Progressive overload matters. Heavy squats matter. Strength training matters. But so does recovery, readiness, fatigue management, and knowing when to push versus when to pull back. If you want long-term strength, muscle, performance, and longevity, you can’t train like every session is a test. Sometimes the win is showing up, making the smart adjustment, getting quality work in, and coming back stronger next workout.

My WEEKLY Supplement SYSTEM!

I finally invested in pill organizers, because using 3 organizers instead of filling 14 bottles every week like I’m defusing a supplement bomb got old fast.

The black organizer is my morning stack. The two yellow organizers are my nighttime stack.

This isn’t everything I take, but these are the supplements I take with my first and last solid meals, on top of my morning gut shake and a few other things throughout the day.

Morning stack:
Pure Encapsulations Ligament Restore
Pure Encapsulations Mobility Joint + NEM
Pure Encapsulations Ashwagandha
Genestra Brands Zinc Picolinate
Pure Encapsulations Digestive Enzymes Ultra
Pure Encapsulations Liposomal Glutathione

Nighttime stack:
Pure Encapsulations Ligament Restore
Pure Encapsulations Ashwagandha
Pure Encapsulations Magnesium Glycinate
Pure Encapsulations Digestive Enzymes Ultra
Pure Encapsulations Liposomal Glutathione

On Saturdays and Sundays, because I usually go heavier on meat, I also add Pure Encapsulations Betaine HCl with Pepsin to both stacks.

This stack is built around digestive health, joint health, stress management, cognitive function, immune support, testosterone support, energy production, and recovery.

Ligament Restore and Mobility Joint + NEM support connective tissue, joints, tendons, ligaments, mobility, and joint comfort.

Ashwagandha supports stress resilience, nervous system function, recovery, and cognitive performance.

Zinc supports immunity, metabolism, tissue repair, and healthy testosterone status.

Digestive Enzymes Ultra and Betaine HCl with Pepsin support digestion, especially with larger or higher-protein meals.

Magnesium Glycinate supports muscle function, relaxation, sleep, and energy production.

Liposomal Glutathione supports antioxidant status, detoxification pathways, cellular health, liver function, and immunity.

The real lesson is not “copy my stack.” Please don’t be that person. The lesson is to build systems that make health easier to execute.

Food, sleep, training, stress management, and consistency are still the foundation. Supplements are just support.

Do you WASTE your Physio benefits???

A lot of people have physiotherapy benefits and never use them. Then they spend months “just waiting to see if it gets better” while their neck stays tight, their back keeps barking, their shoulder still feels jammed up, and their knee reminds them every time they use the stairs. That is backwards. If you already have coverage, use the damn thing for something useful.

Physiotherapy is not just for people who are completely broken. It is for the nagging issues, the recurring pain, the stiffness, the movement restrictions, and the problems that keep getting brushed off until they become bigger problems.

Move better. Feel better. Use the benefits you are already paying for.

DM me to schedule your Physio appointment.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! 🎃🎃🎃🔪🔪🔪

The reason most people fail isn't due to the big things. Rather, it's the small changes that they're unwilling to make. Like swapping regular Reese's Peanut Butter Cups or Reese's Mini's for these Quest Peanut Butter Cups or Quest Mini Peanut Butter Cups.

My best friend is a shining example; after I finish scaring the s**t out of the kids on his block, he'll be snacking on regular chips and candies, and I'll be having these.

Additionally, they will all be going in the freezer – so it takes me longer to eat them – and I'll only be having one piece at a time, so I burn more NEAT calories by continually walking to the freezer to grab a piece.

I get it; you don't want to sacrifice on taste. But guess what? Nothing worth having comes without a bit of sacrifice. The choice is yours; make small changes now, for big changes in the future!!!

Today, I had the Grand Reopening of my Team Youphoric Health and Performance Center and my Physiotherapy Clinic to celebrate 10 years of leaving the commercial gym space to persue my Dream of opening my own facilities, and it was great!

I made some healthy drinks and snacks (2nd image) that everyone enjoyed, the Mayor of Aurora – – stopped by (1st Image) and brought me a gift (3rd Image), and I had some of the local Commerce Members stop by and also give me a gift (4th image).

All that's left to do is clean up – and I'm completely pooped – so I'm going to do that right now and then pass out while visions of sugar plums dance through my head.

Goodnight!!!
