We're about 4 weeks into the year. Most guys who started something new on January 1st are hitting a wall right now. The "New Year, New Me" energy is gone. The motivation has faded. The workouts that felt exciting in Week 1 now feel like obligations. Your body is sore. You're questioning if this is actually working. This is the moment 80% of guys quit. Where are you right now? - Started strong, now struggling? What changed? - Thinking about quitting? What's making you want to stop? Be honest. - Still going but not sure you're doing it right? What feels off? - Nailing it 4 weeks in? What's actually different about your approach? We don't back off as we get older. We get smarter. And you know what that means? If you're a guy who's been training smart for years, who's learned what actually works for a 40+ body, who's rebuilt yourself - you have something to teach. So here's the deal: New guys: Post your situation. Don't wait for me to answer. What's holding you back? Be specific. Experienced guys: Reply. You know what works. Share it. 2-3 sentences. You're not writing a thesis - you're answering a brother. The standards we're building here aren't just physical. They include showing up for each other. Post it below. No perfect answers. Just the truth.

New week. New challenge. 7 days. No excuses. This isn't about perfection. It's about showing up every single day and proving to yourself you can follow through. Here's what you're committing to: • Day 1: Post your starting point (weight optional, energy 1-10, one thing to fix) • Day 2: Complete a workout + post which one • Day 3: Post your protein sources for the day • Day 4: Post one thing you did to recover • Day 5: Train + post your workout • Day 6: Post one discipline win from the week • Day 7: Post what changed (even if small) Comment "IN" if you're committing to the 7-Day Rebuild Challenge. Let's see who's serious. - Keith

Whether you’re celebrating with family or hitting the gym today, I appreciate every one of you who’s chosen to keep showing up and refuse to fade. This brotherhood we’re building spans countries, ages, and backgrounds, but we’re all united by one thing: training smart, living with discipline, and becoming the best version of ourselves at any age. As we head into 2026, the best is ahead of us. Keep putting in the work. Happy holidays. Let’s make 2026 our strongest year yet.

Share your wins. Big, small, or quiet victories. Every rep, every streak, every habit you nailed counts. Celebrate your progress and encourage others - discipline grows when it’s visible.

Ask your questions here. Workouts. Recovery. Nutrition. Longevity. Technique. Be specific. Tell us what you’re doing now and where you need help. Someone else is probably facing the same challenge - and this is how we get better together.
