I passed 1,000 subs on my YouTube channel today. It's been a long time in the making, and it felt good. Now it's time to push harder and get locked in. Let's go!!! https://youtube.com/@realporkchop?si=2wG9eOR1lH0p6qLe

Goal weight achieved. I've put on 15 lbs. in total and feel pretty good at this weight. This wasn't an easy task for me, but I stuck with the plan and pushed through. Now the plan is to maintain this weight and work on body composition. This is the most I've ever weighed.

I filmed my origin story for my YouTube channel yesterday afternoon after about a week of writing and going over the script. This was the hardest video I've made and I found myself trying to come up with any reason I could to not post it. I really don't like sharing a lot of details about my life struggles as a man. It feels like weakness or that I'm in search of pity, neither of which are the case. Sharing some of those struggles in this group is one thing, but putting it out there for everyone to see is a far different feeling. I pushed through a roller coaster of emotions and posted the video last night. I woke up this morning feeling nervous about the video, but also feeling proud of myself for showing that I'm a real person, I'm not perfect, and my channel isn't just a character I'm playing. We all have an origin story and if mine helps one person on their journey I'll consider the video a success. Hope y'all have a great Sunday! JB https://youtube.com/@realporkchop?si=2wG9eOR1lH0p6qLe

I went to D'Iberville to go get some protein and saw some old cars parked at Bops with people holding signs. So I pulled in to see what was up and it was a local church praying blessings over people and their cars. I didn't know it, but I needed that today. Brother's let me tell you, there's power in prayer.

Trained with a solid group of guys, had a productive conversation at lunch, and finished it off with some hot/cold exposure and a few minutes in a salt room. I'm on PTO all next week so I've got time to let it all soak in and work on my own projects. Great day @Alan Belcher @Jim Davis @Cash Chavez @Gavin Dozier
