I am thinking of trying a split that one of my coworkers suggested to me that he calls a big muscle day little muscle day split where he trains all his big muscles one day so chest back and the leg muscles, quads, and hamstrings then the next day he does his little muscle, muscles, biceps, triceps, shoulders, and calves, and he throws in abs wherever and it would run the same way you would do a four day upper lower so Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday with Wednesdays and weekends off, and I like the idea of not being burnt out from every muscle crammed into upper day and every muscle crammed into lower day.

Train consistently. Eat clean. Recover properly. Protect their sleep. They know it. They're not confused about it. What stops them isn't knowledge. It's the gap between knowing and actually doing it, every single day, without negotiating with themselves. That gap is where discipline lives. And closing it is the whole game. I've spent 45 years learning how to close that gap. It doesn't come from motivation. Motivation is unreliable. It comes from building standards so solid that skipping isn't even a conversation you have with yourself anymore. You either show up or you don't. And Built Different men show up.

Any opinion on B stance RDL vs normal dumbbell RDL? What is preferable? I started doing it but it feels still a bit weird. It should be better for the lower back. What is the opinion of the community?

What did your morning look like today? Not your workout. Your morning. Did you wake up with a plan, or did you reach for the phone before your feet hit the floor? Did you eat something that served your body, or grab whatever was easiest? Did you have five minutes of quiet before the world started pulling at you, or did you hand that time away before you even realized it? I've been doing this long enough to know that the men who are winning in the gym are almost always the men who are winning in the morning. Not because they have more time. Because they've decided that the first hour belongs to them. I don't care what that looks like for you. It doesn't have to be a two-hour routine. It could be 20 minutes. But those 20 minutes, before the phone, before the emails, before everyone else's needs, are yours. That's not selfish. That's a standard. And at the end of the day, men who hold that standard in the morning tend to hold it everywhere else too. What does your morning routine look like right now, and what's the one thing you'd change about it if you could? Drop it below. 👇

I want to take a moment and say something directly to the men in this community. When I started Built Different, I knew there was a need for this. Men over 40 who were done with generic fitness advice that wasn't built for them. Men who wanted to train smart, live with discipline, and stop pretending that decline was inevitable. What I didn't expect was the brotherhood. The messages I get from men in this community, from the UK, the Philippines, New Zealand, all over the world, telling me they finally found a group of men who get it. Men who don't make excuses. Men who show up even when it's hard. Men who hold themselves to a standard most people around them have long abandoned. That's what Built Different actually is. Not just the training. Not just the programs. It's the fact that in here, you're not alone in this. There are men at 50, 60, 67 who are still showing up. Still rebuilding. Still holding the standard. That matters more than any piece of content I could ever post. So to every man in this community, thank you for being here. Thank you for engaging. Thank you for sharing your wins and your struggles. You make this worth building. We're just getting started. And we're doing it together. 💪 What's one thing this community has given you that you didn't have before you joined? Drop it below. 👇
