Stop Curling Your Business to Death

Stop Curling Your Business to Death

"Looking for someone to help my client grow their business."

That popped up in one of my business groups.

I responded, only to get this back:

"They don’t need to make the business sellable. They just need help growing it… like who to hire and where to spend money."

And it reminded me of Curling Carl.

I used to see him at the gym, always sprinting straight to the curl station. No breaks. No breathing. Just heaving dumbbells up and down like a rabbit on a live wire.

He wanted big arms. And he thought this was the way to get them.

He refused to train his legs. Said squats were a waste of time.

Guess what happened?

Nothing.

His arms never got bigger. He burned out. Eventually, he quit.

Why?

Because real muscle growth isn’t about more curls. It’s about building the foundation—squats, core, compound movements.

And business growth is no different.

More money, more people, and more hours won’t get you there if you don’t have the right foundation.

That’s what I’ll be breaking down over the next few days.

So you can put the curl bar down.
