Hey guys—quick update. Today's group call will be canceled. We’re still waiting on everyone to get into the Skool group; a few people are running into access issues and we’re working through them now. Plan is to be fully up and running by next week. Hope all of your week’s have been solid so far.

What standard have you been failing to enforce on yourself? I haven’t consistently enforced the standard of discipline over convenience. I rely too much on motivation instead of non-negotiable habits. Training happens, but discipline around sleep, recovery, and nutrition hasn’t always matched the effort I put into workouts. The standard should be: discipline even when no one’s watching. Where do you usually drift when no one’s watching? I drift into “almost disciplined” behaviour, under-fuelling on protein some days, doomscrolling instead of locking in, and telling myself I’ll “lock in tomorrow.” It’s not quitting, but it’s coasting just enough to slow progress. What does “locked in” actually look like for you over the next 30 days? Locked in means discipline first, feelings second. Training 4 days a week, hitting daily protein targets, prioritizing sleep and recovery - no exceptions or excuses.

Standard I failed to enforce: As someone who works long hours on film shoots, I'd always succumb to the temptations of less-than-healthy set food and use my unpredictable schedule as an excuse for not showing up to the gym. Whenever I had off days, I'd go 100%. But as soon as certainty went out the window, so too did my standards for myself. Where I drifted: God help me if I fumbled on a good day, as it would devolve into an endless mental cycle of "this week's a bust, next Monday is my REAL starting point". I'd just keep digging myself deeper into a hole as opposed to brushing off my missteps and getting back on track. What "locked in" looks like now: Zero excuses. Getting all my workouts in, whether early morning or dead of night, and always having protein-rich meals prepped to plop in a bag and take to work. I went from overweight to skinny-fat, so there's no defense for not being able to go from skinny-fat to toned to shredded.

Standard I failed to enforce: Consistency when no one was watching. When I first quit working corporate full time, I found it so easy to do what was 'just enough' to keep everything afloat (physique, coaching, etc). I learned that I could easily lock in under pressure, but then as soon as that was removed, I would slowly let my standards for myself slide until eventually my structure disappeared. Where I drifted: When something unexpected would come up and push back my schedule by even as little as an hour. That would be enough to throw me over the edge and I'd tell myself that alright, lets aim for a perfect day tomorrow. And would use that inconvenience to justify not knowing what I knew I should be doing to keep chasing after my mission. It wasn't because I didn’t know what to do — but because nothing forced me to actually follow-through. What “locked in” looks like now: Non-negotiable structure. Working out 4-5x per week and hitting my protein target everyday. 200g+ minimum. Doesn't matter if I'm in Toronto or in France, this is a non-negotiable for me. This is what I built my discipline, my structure and my systems around. As much as I love to negotiate with myself, my standards don’t change anymore based on my mood, schedule, or motivation. This has only been possible due to having the right systems in place. This room exists to remove the option to drift — for me and for everyone here.

I’ve been failing to enforce the standard of having a standard and consistency. I don’t even post a lot but I drift on social media and can waste valuable time scrolling and occasionally commenting. What “locked in” looks like to me is consistent progress in the right direction and by right direction I mean no wasted effort. Every workout, every meal, every choice counts. To me, that how you build sustainable habits.
