New @barbarianfitco hat Deadpool edition - thanks JR for getting it here so quickly and thankfully the UPS issue appeared to just be a system glitch.
Love the white patch but so glad I decided to get this one too. This one is gonna get a lot of wear!
So a funny thing happened on the way to the gym. Well funny in hindsight.
We have always fed feral cats on our porch. And they have babies. There’s no tnr program in our county unfortunately so kittens are a reality. Some make it and some don’t.
Well one of them had a new litter a couple weeks back and these little kittens like to get up inside my Yukon because it’s so hot outside. I know this. We always check our vehicles before we drive off and I saw a couple under the car so I gently sprayed some water and got them run off.
Or so I thought.
I got the gym which is about 15 minutes away and heard a LOUD crying / whimpering and man my heart dropped. It’s almost 100 degrees and a kitten is under my hood of my hot engine and I couldn’t get it.
So I decided I’m gonna go in to the gym and hope it comes out on its own and gets under where the pavement is a little cooler with the shade.
Came out from my workout and the little kitten was up against my tire just looking around wondering where it’s at.
So I grabbed it real quick and put it in my back seat on a blanket in the cold AC and it was fighting me not happy to be picked up. It’s so young it still has blue eyes.
By the time I got home it was passed out and loving life and I was able to grab it and put it back with its litter mates and momma.
God is good yall cause this could have been a really really horrible day for that little kitten.
This is pretty great! I’m still playing around and finding what works for my body. Love the point though that we are all different.
Through years of self experimentation, I realized I tend to be do best on moderate carbs, moderate fats and a moderately high protein diet.
Of course not all people are like me.
Some people need a lot of fats, not a lot of carbs.
Fact is some people have terrible carbohydrate genes, terrible inflammatory genes and terrible saturated fat genes.
I learned a while ago that my body doesn't love saturated fats. I feel sluggish when I consume too much saturated fats.
Went on a carnivore diet years ago and felt like complete shit.
I think this is where most people who are looking to take their physique to the next level come up short.
If you're not looking at your genetics, you're missing a pretty big opportunity, a pretty big piece of the puzzle.
I figured out over the years that I do best on 30% protein, 30% fat and 40% carb.
That ratio works best for me.
I also figured out I do best when my diet is dynamic and based on how hard am I training, how much volume am I training and how frequently am I training.
About 80% of my daily carbs are designated to my pre and post workout meals and the rest are eaten throughout the day.
While I've got great genes for muscle building and power it’s generally poor genes for inflammation.
So for whatever reason, my body is able to take in huge amounts of protein and I don’t do well with bad fats.
With a moderate amount of carbs, higher-ish protein and low fat diet AND by targeting carbs around my workout, I found it most effectively drives aggressive performance.
I’m getting amazing pumps in the gym, fully energized throughout the day, getting stronger overall and making significant progress since I figured all this out a few years ago.
I also have to mention getting my hormones optimized definitely tied everything together and fast tracked my progress.
For the average person who is working out consistently eating whole based foods and eating macros is plenty good enough but for someone looking to take it to the next level you really want to figure out what approach works best for YOU.
Best way to do that is to practice different strategies and find the one that works best for your body.
You can get lucky and just go off of what someone else does or what you read online works best but honestly the best thing you can do is (which takes time to figure out) is…
Remember just because it works for your favorite bodybuilder doesn’t mean it’s the best plan for you.
Up at 4 to get ready and get the kids to school and food prepped and all that she does and she was dragging ass today big time. Still made it to the gym and kicked ass! Proud of you babe! Tomorrow’s rest day will be well deserved.
Will always have love for little Myles.

Not sure Eli Lilly is gonna use this as an advert for Reta.
I used to masturbate compulsively. My pussy was constantly aching, always one toy away from satisfaction that never came. I became so desensitized that I needed a hitachi at max settings and a dildo the size of my forearm just to feel anything.
Retatrutide fixed my brain chemistry or whatever. Now I'm no longer a hostage to my urges. I actually get shit done and my body isn't screaming that I need dick.

Saturday is the day my band Dark Signal would play if we happen to win the Twitch contest this Sunday.
If you want to help us win this thing, it's super easy. 👇
1. If you dont have a Twitch account, create one. Very fast and easy to do so.
2. Go to twitch.tv/dwpresents and follow the page by clicking on the heart icon. This unlocks your ability to vote in the contest.
3. Go back to that same page this Sunday at 3:30pm pacific time where they will be live streaming the contest. There are three brackets left so there is potential to vote 3 different times for us.
The battle consists of bands going head to head with music videos. After you watch both music videos, you'll habe the opportunity to vote for which band you want to advance. Assuming we make it to through the final bracket, you'll need to vote for 3 different videos of ours this sunday.
We have submitted an unreleased track for the final round. So everyone in the stream will get exclusive first listen to that.
Lets take this one home for the boys!
Thank you!

Got this one in today! Go support our guy @brentlajeunesse. Dudes is on the path, not just preaching it but walking it. Anyone that has signed that dotted line to serve others and continues to do good for people and pass on the hard lessons learned has ALL of my respect.
Stop giving the mean girls club on fitness X attention and put that energy into something positive.
Looking forward to this one Brent!
Posted this the other day but didn’t show you what they actually look like so some people thought they were gummies.
These things are freaking delicious! Taste and texture like smarties! Gotta imagine they have to have 5g of creatine in them since they’re basically compressed powder vs gummies.
If you gotta load up it’s a lot easier to eat 5 of these than to drink a fuck ton of powder.
God how horrible!
There was a terrible structure fire two days ago here in Parker County TX where I live and work. A woman and her 2 young children passed away in the fire. The husband/father is a first responder and was on shift working on the ambulance for a local private company in neighboring Palo Pinto county. I can’t even imagine how you continue life at that point.
Any little bit can help this man pick up the pieces. Prayers for all of them I’m sure would be greatly appreciated as well. The benevolent fund link has been attached and this has been put together by his employer Sacred Cross.

🚨 TIME TO REVISIT THE “DHTs”
Five DHT derivatives account for most of what I get asked about in DMs, and my response to each one varies enormously from client to client.
There is no shortcut to knowing which one works for you until you run it yourself.
Here is what close to three decades of client anecdotes and my own N=1 testing provides us about each one, dosing theory included. 👇
