June Check-In: 2 Months Into HYROX Training

Yes, I know what everyone is thinking: how did you only lose TWO pounds in two months??!!

Here’s what actually happened:

✅ Down 6.3 lbs of body fat
✅ Up 3.8 lbs of muscle
✅ Stronger than I’ve ever been

Current 10 Rep Maxes:

🏋️ Deadlift: 350 lbs
🏋️ Back Squat: 315 lbs
🏋️ Bench Press: 250 lbs
🏋️ Standing Overhead Press: 155 lbs

The first two months weren’t about losing as much weight as possible.

They were about building a the foundation:

More muscle.
More strength.
Better work capacity.

Now the focus shifts to building the engine.

With HYROX five months away, the next phase will prioritize running, conditioning, and body-fat loss while maintaining the strength I’ve built.

The goal isn’t just to weigh less.

The goal is to become stronger, faster, healthier, and set an example my boys can be proud of.

Let’s get to work. 💪

1 month check-in.

Scale?
240.1 → 242.7 lbs

Most people would panic.

But here’s what actually happened…

Body fat:
30.3% → 29.2% ⬇️

Lean mass:
157.1 → 159.4 lbs ⬆️

➡️ Lost fat
➡️ Gained muscle
➡️ Got stronger

This is what real progress looks like.

No crash dieting.
No starving.
No killing myself with cardio.

Just structure, consistency, and lifting with intent.

And yeah… I’m showing this because most coaches won’t.

Because this doesn’t sell as easily as “lose 10 lbs in 30 days.”

But THIS is how you actually change your body.

If you’re only chasing the scale, you’re missing the bigger picture.

Build muscle.
Drop fat.
Play the long game.

That’s how you win.

If you want help doing this the right way, comment “RESET” or shoot me a message.

“Food noise” is the new buzzword…

But for most people, it’s not a condition.

It’s:
– low protein
– unstable blood sugar
– no structure

Of course you’re thinking about food all day…
your body is trying to get what it actually needs.

Fix the root problem → the “noise” goes away.

Most people don’t need another quick fix.
They need a better system.

Comment “STRUCTURE” and I’ll show you where to start.

Grateful for this life and this family.

Happy Easter from our family to yours!

You don’t need to start over.

One meal didn’t ruin your progress.
One day won’t either.

What actually keeps people stuck is the cycle:
all-in → off track → guilt → restart.

That’s what slows progress down… not the food.

Real results come from what you do consistently,
not what happens on a single day.

Stop starting over.
Start staying consistent.

You’re not stuck because you’re lazy.

You’re stuck because you don’t have structure.

I know that feeling…

Working out.
Trying to eat better.
Putting in effort…

…but still feeling like nothing is actually changing.

That’s where I was.

Not because I didn’t know what to do—
but because I wasn’t following anything consistently.

Everything changed when I stopped guessing
and started following a plan.

Not extreme.
Not complicated.

Just structured.

If you feel like you’re doing everything right
but still not seeing results…

it’s not you.

It’s the lack of structure.

If you’re ready to fix that—

DM me “RESET” and I’ll help you build your plan.
