  1. Stop calling it "old age"—it’s just rust. 🧱💪

    If you’ve spent the last decade neglecting your body, sleep, and nutrition, you aren't broken; you’re just undertrained.

    The goal isn't to look "jacked." It's to stay strong enough to keep doing everything you love.

    I’m tracking my own rebuild with my app, Pump It Better. Join me. Let’s trade "weak" for "capable."

  3. Morning fasted #elliptical #workout

    2023 Chicago BJJ Championships are happening this Saturday. I have one GI opponent and another no-gi in my rank/age/weight bracket.

    Now, note to self: don't get injured in practice like last time!

  6. Morning #treadmil

    Clocked in at 189lbs this morning so just need to maintain for 2 wks.

    #pumpitbetter #fitness #fasting

  7. Intermittent fasting and morning cardio daily for the next 2 weeks - I need to loose 3 lbs before my #jiujitsu competition March 4th to make the 190lbs weight class.

    #pumpitbetter #fitness #fasting

  8. Felt good #weightlifting today after a short break because of a cold and a slight shoulder injury (I need to get better at tapping early in #jiujitsu when rolling).

    #pumpitbetter #fitness

  9. Early afternoon fasted run on a treadmill. And now it's time to break the fast and eat some goodies.

    #pumpitbetter #fasting #running #threadmill #fitness

  10. Some treadmilling and mobility work this morning. I still have a little cold so keeping it light.

    #pumpitbetter #fitness #running #mobility

  11. Had a fat-burning #threadmil run for breakfast this morning, and will try lunchtime #jiujitsu in a fasted state as well. Then eat like a king until 7pm.

    #pumpitbetter #running #fitness #fasting

  12. Evening no-gi Jiu-Jitsu left me completely exhausted. We learned switching from mount to s-mount when opponent pushes off your hip and from there either an armbar or take the back.

    #pumpitbetter #jiujitsu #bjj #fitness

  13. Jiu-Jitsu in the books.

    Today we drilled some triangles from closed guard with 3 setup variations followed by 10 minutes of rolling.

    #pumpitbetter #fitness #jiujitsu #bjj

  14. Last week I did 3 days of lifting, 3 days of Jiujutsu, and 30mins of treadmill.

    This week I'm bumping weights a bit and will try 5x Jiujutsu. I'd be really happy with that schedule if I can keep it up.

  15. Workout

    Yesterday: mobility, stretching, and treadmill 25 mins

    Today: Madcow 5x5 Day 1

    I bumped the weights on all major lifts this week a tiny bit, progress ;)

    #pumpitbetter #weightrainig #weightlifting #fitness

  16. Lunchtime no-gi #jiujitsu

    Instructor didn't show so it was a q&a session with tips and ideas from a blue belt and some rolling.

    #pumpitbetter #fitness #bjj

  17. Jiu-Jitsu (GI)

    - standing takedown: under arm around to standing back, a) lift & trip a leg on way down b) trap heal falling back/sideways to your hip

    - after falling from above, knee on belly, arm around neck grabbing opposite lapel setting up a choke, s-mount, right knee under head hooking with amounted foot, right arm behind neck loop choking, extend

    #pumpitbetter #bjj #jiujitsu

  18. Lunchtime No-Gi #jiujitsu

    - Side control to mount with arm triangle choke
    - closed guard, arm drag over the shoulder, rear naked choke
    - roll 20 mins

    #pumpitbetter #fitness #bjj

  19. Lunchtime #jiujitsu

    2 arm bar setups from closed guard and 2 options for passing a closed guard.

    #pumpitbetter #fitness #bjj

  20. Morning #weightlifitng

    Didn't think I had it in me when I first woke up, but after a protein shake, a cup of coffee, and a 15 minute dog walk, I hit the basement for some Madcow 5x5 #workout

    #pumpitbetter #fitness #weightrainig #strength

  21. Lunchtime #jujitsu (Gi)

    40 minutes of two options for passing half-guard, followed by 20 minutes of positional rolling (starting in half-guard).

    I was not able to pass a single half-guard with what we learned - everyone was ready for it LOL.

    #pumpitbetter #bjj #fitness #workout

  22. Holy cow, laying down to relax and doing some deep slow breathing exercise really works. At least my Garmin watch thinks so. Stress went down from 100% to resting sleep level. Trying to continue deep slow breathing as I work now.

    #pumpitbetter #recovery #stress #relax

  23. Restarted training #JiuJitsu yesterday after a long time off. With Christmas and new year break wrapping up and kids and wife returning to work, I hope I can make it routine again.

    Today I feel like a truck ran me over, so it has to be a gradual buildup.

    We learned 3 variations of no-gi half guard passes.

  24. Lunchtime #jiujitsu

    I'm back! A flu or something hit me like a brick and knocked me off my feet last Thursday, but thankfully it left just as fast.

    Today we drilled some options for rolling chokes when facing an opponent head on in turtle position followed by 20 minutes of rolling starting from that position.

    #pumpitbetter #bjj #fitness

  25. My "body battery" was 58 this morning, a little lower compared to yesterday, but other then some muscle pains and stiffness from not working out in a while I felt OK.

    Lifted some weights during lunch break, Madcow 5x5 Day 2. My recovering hand's grip seems to be a bit better.

    #pumpitbetter #weighlifting

  26. Lunchtime workout

    Trying to detox from weekend drinking and establish some base numbers before introducing change so we may see the effects.

    Sleep stress levels, HRV, and "body battery" were clearly effected by the few drinks I had over the weekend, but 30 minutes of elliptical was not a problem.

  27. Jiu-Jitsu

    Last week I managed to train daily M-F, and hoping to do it again this week.

    Weight-in for my competition is this Friday evening and I have 4 lbs to shave off by then. Don't know if its a good idea, but I started water fasting today until Friday. Competition is next day so I have time to re-feed and hydrate.

    #pumpitbetter #fitness #weightrainig #fasting #bjj #jiujitsu

  28. Morning workout

    Few sets of squats and deadlifts. Light weights, just prepping joints and ligaments.

    I'm still cutting and on calorie deficit but want to start some weight lifting program that is compatible. I'm thinking maybe some higher reps push/pull 6x a week? Something that won't wear me out so I can still Jiu-Jitsu. Does anyone have suggestions what would work well?

    #pumpitbetter #fitness #workout #weighlifting #weightloss #jiujitsu #bjj

  29. Weightlifting

    Keeping it a bit lighter to make sure I can recover and keep going with cardio days.

    Squats, chest, and rows.
