Most parents think organic food is “too expensive.” But here’s what’s wild… Have you actually looked at the price of junk food lately? Chips. Cereal. Frozen meals. Snacks. Soda. Inflation quietly pushed most processed food right up to organic prices—yet nobody talks about it. What is expensive?👇🏻 • Buying food with no plan • Constant snack runs • Name-brand “clean” toiletries • Convenience over intention There’s a simple shift parents are making right now: ✔️ Meal prepping instead of impulse shopping ✔️ Cutting processed food that drains the budget ✔️ Making basic household items instead of overpaying ✔️ Reclaiming margin in a tight economy I recorded a short 4 minute MP3 breaking this down in plain English—no fluff, no guilt, just practical thinking for parents feeling the squeeze. If you want the audio, comment “ORGANIC” below and I’ll send it to you. Fair warning: it might change how you look at your grocery bill and income moving forward.

Strong glutes aren’t about aesthetics alone. They’re foundational for posture, balance, joint health, metabolism, and longevity. Whether you’re 25 or 75, training your glutes properly pays dividends in everyday life. Below are my go-to glute exercises that are safe, scalable, and effective at any age—with options to regress or progress as needed. 1️⃣ Glute Bridges Why they matter: - Activate dormant glutes - Support the lower back - Improve hip stability How to scale: - Beginner: Bodyweight, slow tempo - Advanced: Single-leg bridges or add a dumbbell/band 👉 Coaching cue: Squeeze the glutes at the top like you’re holding a credit card. 2️⃣ Sit-to-Stands (Box Squats) Why they matter: - Direct carryover to daily life - Strengthens glutes, quads, and core - Excellent for knee and hip health How to scale: - Higher chair = easier - Lower box or goblet squat = harder 👉 Opinion: If you can’t control a sit-to-stand, adding load elsewhere is premature. 3️⃣ Step-Ups Why they matter: - Build unilateral (single-leg) strength - Improve balance and coordination - Very joint-friendly when done correctly How to scale: - Low step, bodyweight - Higher step or added load 👉 Coaching cue: Drive through the heel of the working leg—don’t bounce off the back foot. 4️⃣ Reverse Lunges Why they matter: - Easier on the knees than forward lunges - Emphasize glutes more than quads - Great for symmetry and control How to scale: - Hold onto support - Add dumbbells or slow the eccentric 👉 Opinion: Reverse lunges are criminally underrated, especially for adults over 40. 5️⃣ Hip Hinges (Deadlift Pattern) Why they matter: - Essential movement pattern - Protects the back when lifting in real life - Massive glute engagement How to scale: - Start with bodyweight or kettlebell - Progress to dumbbells or barbell 👉 Coaching cue: Push the hips back like you’re closing a car door with your butt. 🔑 Final Thought

Over the holidays, we met a lot of really nice people at Mitchell’s Petting Zoo in Sweetwater, TN. Normally, I’m not a fan of these establishments, but they treated these animals like royalty. Our family enjoyed our time there. The owners are definitely dedicated to their passions. Just a few pics to check out if you are ever in the area.

Most people overlook tomato 🍅 juice, but it’s quietly one of the most underrated health drinks out there. Here’s why I’m a fan: 1. Powerful antioxidant support Tomato juice is rich in lycopene, a potent antioxidant linked to reduced inflammation and improved heart health. Lycopene is actually more bioavailable in tomato juice than in raw tomatoes. 2. Supports cardiovascular health Regular consumption has been associated with healthier blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Simple inputs often lead to meaningful long-term outcomes. 3. Hydration with benefits Unlike sugary juices, tomato juice is low in calories and sugar while still providing potassium and key electrolytes that support hydration and muscle function. 4. Gut and metabolic support The fiber and nutrients can support digestion, insulin sensitivity, and overall metabolic health — especially helpful for people trying to manage weight without extreme diets. 5. Easy, realistic habit No prep. No blender. No complicated protocol. One small glass a day is an easy win that actually compounds over time. Health doesn’t have to be flashy to be effective. The habits that last are usually the ones that feel almost too simple to matter — until they do. If you’re looking for small changes that support energy, recovery, and long-term health, tomato juice is worth a second look. Curious — has anyone here tried adding it to their routine?
