Rounded Men

Harsh Truth: Reaching your fitness goals is extremely simple. Difficult. But simple. You have not achieved them because you consistently lie to yourself. ❤️ this post if you want to lose 10lbs this month. (No cost) Men are 65-95% more likely to achieve their goals if they have another man holding them accountable. Learn to hold yourself accountable and watch all aspects of your life change. DM’s are open to those who need brotherhood.

Your attitude towards God comes mainly from your attitude towards other people.

No one is ever operating at 100%. Quit making excuses.

How do you measure the success of a parent? A child that knows they are loved by their parents and God and is filled with purpose is a pretty good starting point.

To cultivate gratitude make a list of the biggest blessings in your life. Then imagine losing those things one by one.

Anxiety comes from many options but no priorities.

Envy is a lie. You only envy the people whose sacrifices you cannot see.

Inaction is a decision.

Humility and Hope is what we need when we come before the Lord.

Ask for His mercy, which is enough for your salvation. Lord Jesus Christ son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.

A blog post from my wife. Men are called to LEAD. I hear "my wife would never do these things" I ask... have you done them long enough and shown by action how doing the things (training, personal development) has changed the dynamics of your relationships? It's too easy to pass the buck! I do things with our without my wife (or anyone for that matter) BUT ALWAYS invite her and others. She comes along more times than not! And has found the same treasure that I have. And the same one that is waiting for you on the other side of doing the hard things

If you are throwing your pet a birthday party you have a serious meaning problem.

There is no act of love that does not have eternal impact.

All things work to the good to those who are called according to His purpose. He uses everything from our past to lead us to good.

Find your partner early. You will shape each other. That’s how you end up with a soulmate. The culture that told you to wait is broken. Just look around and you’ll see what I mean.

My faith is not rooted in human wisdom but rests in God’s power.

There may be deceiving superficial appearances but the fruits will always tell the truth of character.

Love the truth and never waver from it.

@tyromper Not to mention the added stress of monitoring every aspect of your health will stress you out and cause worse outcomes in the long run.

It's so funny I see a lot of these HEALTH GURUS & INFLUENCERS saying, "Omg I drank 1 glass of wine & it wrecked me for 3 days!!" Or one longevity expert said he "slipped & ate 1 cookie & had stomach issues all week." Last night was the first night I had a drop of alcohol in 5 months. (Not much interest as I age, but no kids so wifey & I decided to let it rip!) I had 8-9 shots of Jameson & ate pizza & a cinnamon roll at midnight. Woke up early today & walked 7 miles with my wife then took a tough Pilates class with her & still feel like a million bucks. People are OVER OPTIMIZING things in 2026. Tracking everything always. Stressing about all these metrics. -Lift weights 3-4x a week. -Walk & move as much as you can. -Don't drink your calories very often. -Eat whole, real foods 80% of the time. And then LIVE LIFE!!! I do notice most of these GURUS & INFLUENCERS don't have kids. We had three one year olds at one point so a few drinks & a workout seems really easy compared to that.

Men, at some point, you have to grow up. Put down the endless video games. Stop obsessing over toys, collectibles, and entertainment. The world doesn't need more 27-year-old boys. It needs men of character, conviction, and responsibility. Open your Bible. Pursue Christ. Lead your family. Serve your church. Build something that outlives you. The time for childish things is running out.

@McJuggerNuggets “The miscarriage risk is also close to 50%, which made matters worse…they may never see the light of day and it puts Ashley further at risk.” So you made the decision to make sure there is a 100% chance they will never see the light of day. So heroic.

This week, my wife and I made the very difficult decision to terminate the pregnancy due to Trisomy 21. The choice was not made lightly. We really appreciate all of the personal stories that you guys shared with us, especially the unconditional support we received from fans with no matter what we decided. I know some of you may be very disappointed to hear this news. We are devastated. This has been extremely traumatic for both of us, especially Ashley. She underwent the procedure earlier this week and is on the mend. Thankfully, everything went smoothly, but emotionally we are drained. Trisomy 21, also known as Down Syndrome, is caused by an extra chromosome. It is caused by an error in cell division, like a glitch. The odds of a baby having it is 1 in 1000. When I first confronted this news, I was shocked but optimistic. If they’re a little slow intellectually, then we’ll make it work. I signed on to be a parent, come what may…but I just didn’t fully understand what Down Syndrome entailed. Once we made it public, it became clear that MOST people don’t know what Down Syndrome entails (and no, it’s not the same as Autism): 50% of babies with DS have heart defects. 75% will have hearing challenges. Over 50% will have vision problems. Impaired immune function, developmental disabilities, learning disabilities, delayed physical development, poor muscle tone, structural issues with face, decreased lifespan, etc…Sadly, the list is long, feel free to look it up…Down Syndome isn’t a “blessing”, it is objectively shitty from a health perspective. I didn’t realize just how rough it is for the child, let alone the family…more often than not, they would be fully dependent on others for the rest of their life. The miscarriage risk is also close to 50%, which made matters worse…they may never see the light of day and it puts Ashley further at risk. We spoke with doctors, friends, family and genetic counselors and learned that up to 90% of women terminate their pregnancy after learning the baby has Trisomy 21. This was WAY higher than I expected, I thought it would be lower given that I hear so many say they kept or would keep the baby. I believe that’s because most terminations happen privately, it feels shameful. A lot of judgment being cast. You never think you’d be in this type of situation until it happens to you and then things change. To all of my fans who have weighed in on this topic who have Autism, Down Syndrome or any other conditions…we appreciate you. You matter a lot and we’re glad you’re here. I commend you and your families for having the strength and courage to push forward. As for us, we made a difficult decision that we believe in the long-run will be beneficial for our family. Thankfully, we had a choice. It will take a little time to move on, but we are excited to try again in the future and hopefully have a better outcome. Love you guys & thank you for understanding. ❤️
