THE PROTEIN CODE: My TOP Sources to Build Muscle By Volume of What I Consume: 1. Organic eggs 2a. Beef steaks 2b. Deer thigh 3. Whey protein 4. Skimmed cottage cheese 5. Chicken Frequency: • Every day: 1., 2a. or 2b., 3., and 4. • Twice per week: 5. The Perks: One of my gym members has free-range chickens, ensuring a steady supply of fresh, organic eggs. - - - - - Special Benefits of Each Protein Source: • Organic eggs: Rich in essential amino acids, versatile, and quick to prepare. • Beef steaks: High in creatine and iron, excellent for muscle growth and repair. • Deer thigh: Lean and rich in nutrients, less saturated fat compared to other red meats. • Whey protein: Quick absorption rate, ideal for post-workout recovery. • Skimmed cottage cheese: Low in fat, high in casein, a slow-digesting protein that's ideal for muscle repair. • Chicken: Lean protein, rich in B-vitamins, good for muscle maintenance. - - - - - Note on Personal Preferences: Understand, these are merely my own guiding principles for protein intake. You don't have to mirror my choices, but know this: I find a noticeable impact on my strength when I consume meat, but not chicken meat. Eggs I feel are the cheapest maintenance and convenience option, but beef steaks and deer meat are where it's at for me. Whey protein serves as a stopgap, a way to sustain myself until I can consume actual, nourishing food. - - - - - Final thought: Your path may differ, but the aim is unified: fuel both body and mind in alignment with your goals. What you consume not only builds muscle but fortifies your very essence. Choose wisely.

Best time to start biggest strength and muscle mass gains of the year is? Well just before Christmas, or at least before New Year of course! If you never did so, well, I highly recommend you change your plans.

@moveorperish Was too beautiful not to try and capture a moment.

@marckgoran Love it Marck - The calm before the storm!

I am fortunate to have the gym just 10 minutes away from home. Every morning, I walk there. For some reason, this path by the railway is the one I always take. Good morning to you too. ✊🏻

@StoicGainz Exactly one of the reasons why I enjoy my walks as well. Not to mention it wakes me up a bit more for those early seasons.

@marckgoran Awesome visual. Since I built out a home gym I do a 10 - 15 min walk prior around the block. Not as cool as yours but I still get my mind ready for what ensues.

@dailystoic Truth is a call to action, but sometimes your action leads to something never done before. It works both ways: if someone did it, let it motivate you. If no one did it, don’t let that stop you.

@DentesLeo Arguing is like sparring without purpose — it drains energy and leaves bruises on both sides. Then again sparring with purpose, can have the same outcome 🤣

Arguments are battles you can't win: If you lose an argument, you lose. If you win the argument, you have made them feel inferior and resent you. In other words, you still lose. Let your pride aside. Stay cerebral.

@StoicGainz It is so simple it is almost silly, but simple doesn’t necessarily mean it is easy. :)

@marckgoran The type of dopamine the world needs more of. Going through tough battles to make it through to the other side.

You most probably don’t want to go through such a session. Well, I can’t—nor can anyone else—do it for you. The sooner you accept that the most effective things are those the majority tries to avoid, the better for you.

@famandfire Man. this is both horrible and awesome every time we go through it.

@marckgoran Fire

@ClintonProfits Yeah man, really looking forward to those, thanks. Doing some house (profile) cleaning as you see :) Happy holidays to you as well my friend.

@marckgoran Whats up Marck, looking sharp! Happy holidays 🎄 my man.

Don’t be fooled by this friendly smile in case you find yourself trying any of my workouts. On a serious note, returning to X felt like the perfect moment to update my profile pic.

@The_NathanJ Every day should be a Saturday :)

@robpowell661 RDL really is one of the pillars. Looking sharp and strong my friend.

@StoicGainz The weight is a mirror; it reveals the truth about you.

The weight doesn’t lie. The weight doesn’t cheat. The weight doesn’t care. The weight shows you who you are.

@jamessimulation No routine works if you hate it.

The missing link isn’t a new routine - it’s enjoying what you do.

@RobertGreene It’s like training different muscle groups — if you only stick to the familiar, you’ll never know your full potential. To grow stronger, you have to work on those neglected areas.

Do not be afraid to bring out the more sensitive or ambitious sides to your character. These repressed parts of you are yearning to be let out. In the theater of life, expand the roles that you play. Don’t worry about people’s reactions to any changes in you they sense. You are not so easy to categorize, which will fascinate them and give you the power to play with their perceptions of you, altering them at will.

@Malcolm_fleX48 Men speak through action and silence; words are often unnecessary.

@RyanHoliday Progress is like adding weight to the bar — small increments over time lead to big results. Forget perfect. Focus on progress.

“Be satisfied with even the smallest progress," Marcus Aurelius said. You’re never going to be perfect—there is no such thing. You’re human. So instead, aim for progress, even the smallest amount.

@ChamberofFit This an amazing transformation 👏🏻

Meet Jason. Before we started together he was struggling to prioritize his health. He says he kept putting other things first. He knew he needed to make a major change but was struggling to do it on his own. Now he’s down 125 POUNDS in a year. He says he was surprised at how simple the process was once he had enjoyable, go to options for meals and a daily routine he was confident in. He made this transformation WITHOUT weight loss drugs. Without keto, carnivore, etc. fad diets. Instead he: - aimed for 10,000+ steps daily - lifted 4x/wk with a focus on progressive overload to build/maintain muscle while losing fat - he ate 175g+ protein per day - we put a major focus on prioritizing morning sunlight - he cut down on blue light at night for circadian health - we planned ahead for work/fun travel and other life events - we worked together to develop situational strategies & a routine system for him to be able to make sure he was consistently in a calorie deficit - he built muscle rather than losing it (what most weight loss plans do) so he now has a faster metabolism making it easier to keep the fat off So proud of him for all the hard work, he deserves every ounce of these results.

@DentesLeo Past betrayals predict future ones. If they’re disloyal once, they’ll be disloyal again.

Never trust a person who speaks badly of their former friends. Never. They're snakes. Whatever they tell you. Whatever sweet they are to you. Whatever supportive they might seem. They are NOT worthy of your trust.
