Time flies as we are headed out of here on Monday to start the trek home with a short stop in Reston, VA, for myself coming up this Wed-Sat. This week, I had a few crazy sales that are still going on through Monday night on MASS, Qualia and even the Soltec sleep device. Here is what went down this week: Newsletters:

Instagram post of the week: Gym Tune of the Week: Forever Aligned Wow, new stuff from KSE gives me metal goosebumps. I’ve been a huge fan of these guys all the way back to their first album in 2000. Their live shows are always amazing. The last time I saw them, Adam D came out and said, “Wow, Minneapolis, this is an amazing new venue and we are here to take a huge sonic shit on it” Hahaha. Amazing dudes, to boot. Stoked for the entire album and amazing tour with Kublai Khan TX, Fit For a King and Frozen Soul.

Still managed to log 73 km and snag the #2 spot on the leaderboard. It was a blast, and, as much as gym training matters,...
Happy Friday! Huge thanks to everyone that kicked me a reply on my newsletter for coaches and trainers yesterday. See it HERE if you missed it. Today is a bit off topic but it is an important subject so I wanted to kick it out to you all. I recently had the pleasure of joining Dr. Ayla Wolf on The Concussion Recovery Podcast for a deep dive, two-part series on what really happens to the brain and body after a concussion and how to recover smarter. We covered everything from alternative brain...
FREEDOM!(Insert bald eagle screech and the smell of singed leg hair from backyard fireworks gone sideways.) I hope your July 4th was lit—both figuratively and literally—with enough fireworks to alarm the neighborhood HOA and enough cheap beer to make your ancestors weep. Picture it now: sun’s out, thighs out, nut-huggers tight, and Four-Finger Freddy lighting bottle rockets with the one good hand he's got left. Now that we’ve cleansed the soul with grilled meats and questionable decisions,...
