Had such an amazing weekend at the Anaheim HYROX races this weekend!! Wasn’t able to race as I had planned but I'm still so grateful that I was able to go out and support some great friends and get the experience down on the track as a judge at the sandbag lunges… Let’s Go!!

Have you ever had one tiny change in your schedule wreck your whole day? One of our members shared this yesterday: “I used to go into panic mode when my schedule changed. Now I’m able to think and adapt so much better.” That’s the shift Lead Your State: Build A Life You Don’t Want To Escape is all about. Not a life with no interruptions… but a life where interruptions don’t own you. The meeting gets moved. The kid gets sick. The plan blows up. Old pattern: panic, self-sabotage, “screw it, today’s ruined.” New pattern: pause, reset, pivot. You don’t need a perfect day—you just need to lead your state in the middle of a messy one. If that’s the kind of change you’re hungry for, you’re going to feel seen in this book. I’ll be sharing more little previews from Lead Your State as we get closer to launch.

‘When mood leads, we skip the workout that would have reset our mind, avoid the phone call that would have healed a relationship, stay in bed on days that are begging us to step into them, and disappear into screens instead of taking one uncomfortable, healing step. When movement leads, everything else has a chance to shift. The body changes first—the breath deepens, the heart rate comes up, the posture opens—and the brain reads those signals and starts believing, Okay, we’re doing something different today. Slowly, the mood adjusts to match the state. That became the core for us as recovery athletes: state before story, movement before mood. We don’t wait to feel like the future version of ourselves. We move like them. Our emotions are invited to come along for the ride, but they’re no longer in the driver’s seat.’

Ever feel like your state is running you instead of the other way around? I’ve been quietly building something for us behind the scenes… a book that puts the AIR philosophy on paper — the stories, the tools, and the Rise & Recode Method that’s been shaping this community. It’s for the ones who are done trying to escape their life and are ready to train their life. For recovery athletes. For grinders with a past. For anyone learning to move their body and rewrite their story. Over the next few weeks I’ll be sharing pieces of it here inside Skool — early looks, rough cuts, and real conversations. If you could snap your fingers and have one chapter written just for you, what would it be about?

Good morning AIR Athletes! Our belief systems shape our reality— but let’s be honest… some of them are straight-up BS! What’s one belief about yourself you’re actively trying to rewrite right now?
