Mine was amazing!
I flew from Buenos Aires, Argentina to San Antonio, Texas to visit my extended family for two weeks.
We talked, laughed, ate Texas barbeque, played video games and enjoyed each other’s company.
My two nephews have grown a lot in the last year and they’re quickly becoming young men!
Where am I going with this?
Well, I almost didn’t go.
Why?
Because I told myself it would be too disruptive to my work schedule and it was too expensive.
I mean, I had the money to do it. But it just felt expensive and a big hassle. It didn’t feel like it was the right time.
But I was wrong.
These past two weeks was EXACTLY what I needed.
But how often do we know in our hearts what we need to do but decide against it because we find a way to rationalize the decision?
“It’s too expensive.” “It’s not the right time.” “I’ll do it next year.”
All BS excuses to avoid feeling uncomfortable.
This is how you miss out on life. This is how you end up full of regret. This is the path that leads to unhappiness.
What have you been putting off that you know you need to do?
What do you need to say “Yes” to next year? After you answer this question, commit and take action!
Here’s to an amazing 2025!

2- The secret to muscle growth (weight vs. reps)
A recent study measured whether adding more weight or performing more reps with the same weight led to better for strength and muscle gains.
So researchers had study participants single leg extensions using more weight on one leg and performing more reps with the other leg.
The result?
There were differences after 10 weeks in strength or muscle size.
This confirms what we’ve known for a while:
You must improve your performance to boost strength or build muscle. But you can achieve it in different ways.
Keep in mind that there is nuance here. But if you’re just getting started, know that adding reps when you don’t have access or feel comfortable lifting more weight is equally effective for making progress!
3- Struggling with Knee Pain? My favorite hip extension exercise.
Struggling with knee pain?
Try this simple move:
Benefits: Strengthens glutes, improves knee stability, and reduces injury risk.

Unstoppable After 40 Client Highlight: David N.
Meet David, a 51-year-old executive from Canada who had a health scare and decided to takeback control of his health.
He is like most of my clients; he is successful in his career but has struggled with his weight for almost two decades.
Despite facing a major work event and the heartache of losing a loved one to cancer, he chose to prioritize his health. "Life is happening now," he said, and he joined my program. Proving that there's never a perfect time to start—only the present.
In 5 months, David:
He needed a program that fit his age, work schedule, food preferences, and lifestyle, and not the other way around.

Quote of the week:
New goals don't deliver new results. New lifestyles do. And a lifestyle is a process, not an outcome. For this reason, all of your energy should go into building better habits, not chasing better results.
