My dad brought me to the gym before I was old enough to lift. At eleven I'd just sit there and watch a man with one leg put in more work than most people do with two. I knew I had to train with him. I was overweight and I wanted to be proud of what I saw in the mirror, and training with him is what drove my transformation. It set the standard for everything I coach now.
Too many people look at their body and feel ashamed. I want the opposite. Even the person who thinks they have the worst physique should appreciate their body for what it is today, and be proud of themselves for treating it better. That is what the work is for.
I built ProgramBody with Jackson, the guy I've trained next to for years. No letters after our names and none coming. You judge a coach by how they look, how they train, and how their people turn out. That's the whole resume.
