Hey Perform Crew! It’s Friday so that means it’s time to celebrate our wins for the past week. Remember no win is too big or too small. Here’s mine Personal: - Knee is feeling much better today. Seems to have turned another corner over the past 24 hrs - Our son Gabe passed his national EMT exam - I hit 1x8 @ 120# on dumbell incline pressthis week. It’s been a little while since I’ve incline pressed and 120 felt pretty easy. Professional: - Had an old baseball client come back looking for some help. Gonna set him up w/a year long training program. - This one is a little bit of both personal & professional. My cousin Kate runs track at The University of Tampa. She was voted sprinter of the week in her conference. Last summer when I saw her she was having back pain. We got rid of that by October and have had her on a strength plan that’s helping her season out a ton. - We’ve added 5 new members over the the past couple of weeks. Glad to see the group growing! OK, time to share your wins in the comments below! 👇

I’ve been doing a lot of thinking lately about the journey we’re all on. Most of us here start in the same place: frustrated. We’ve got years of "mileage" on our bodies, and we’re just trying to get out of pain so we can get back to the things we love—whether that’s Jiu-Jitsu, hiking, golf, or just being the person who can actually keep up at the park. But getting out of pain is only the first half. The second half is about Performance. Once the "service lights" are off, the goal shifts. It’s about building a frame that’s resilient enough to handle whatever you throw at it. It’s about longevity and improvement so that we aren't just "managing" our age—we're mastering our movement. I want the name of this group to reflect that entire path. I want it to be a place where we work together to make sure we’re still kicking ass and being badasses at 80+. I’ve narrowed it down to three options that I think capture that "Pain to Performance" bridge, and I’d love to know which one resonates most with you. Cast your vote below and let me know why you picked it in the comments!

Hey MRC Crew! Happy Monday morning! How’d your weekend go? It was pretty 🥶 here this weekend so we stayed inside for most of the weekend. I’m hoping we get a little warmer weather soon & more snow so Melissa and I can go snowshoeing. I made this great chicken thigh/broccoli sheet pan recipe last night. It was quick to prep -though I would probably let the chicken sit in the marinade for longer, took about 40-45 min in the oven and tasted great! Definitely adding it to the rotation especially if I’m crunched for time.
