You and I are going to drink a lot of coffee together. Like, borderline dangerous amounts of coffee.
So, first things first. Pour yourself a mug and I’ll introduce myself real quick.
My name’s Jordan — but everyone calls me “J” — and I’m a 27th degree black belt in chugging coffee.
I’m also strength & nutrition coach, I hold several powerlifting world records, and I’ve been fortunate enough to have my writing featured in a variety of outlets like CNN, the Huffington Post, and Schwarzenegger.com.
But listen.
This channel isn’t for fame, publicity, cash, props, fist bumps, likes, pings, pows or whatever else there is.
It’s a place where you and I can chat.
I’ll never sugar coat, lie, or beat around the bush. I’ll tell you everything exactly as I see it. Some stuff you might like. Others you might not.
And that’s totally cool.
Either way, my goal here is to create a discussion. A place where you and I can get together, exchange ideas, and motivate each other to be better every day.
Like I said, we’re gonna drink a lot of coffee together — borderline dangerous amounts — but I’m excited. Because there aren’t too many online communities in which the sole purpose is to inspire and motivate one another.
And that’s exactly what you and I are going to do here.
To your success,
-J

I remember when I started trying to look after myself, and start lifting weights to try to get healthier and stronger.
I hated every minute of it, I was literally just doing it and waiting for it to be over so that I could do something I enjoyed.
After about 6 months, I looked in the mirror and I saw some really positive changes. I was leaner, more muscular, I was more alert.
And you know what, from that day forward, it made absolutely no difference whatsoever, I still hated it. And I still do.
I have to force myself to do any exercise, and if I stop for a week or any reason, I enjoy not forcing myself to do it so much that it is really hard to get going again.
Most of the time when I am walking, doing weights, aerobics, etc., I am just thinking about self harm so that I don’t have to do it tomorrow. And the next day. And the day after that.
People who say “once you get over the hump you’ll love it” are just plain wrong.
But you have to get through the discomfort now to have a better tomorrow, so I keep trying to find ways to cope with it, sometimes successfully, sometimes not so much.
But never give up, never stop trying to try, never let a setback be the end of the journey. Don’t make one doughnut an excuse to stop trying.
To me it’s when you’re consistent. Then out of nowhere you lose pretty much all of the drive and motivation you once had. It’s hard to kick yourself in the but to refuel that spark again.
Take a nicotine pill every time you exercise
I don’t hate exercise. I just don’t have any motivation to exercise.
Thank you. This got my lazy ass out of my warm comfortable bed and onto my walking pad.
