My depression in my early 20s was a result of me wanting more out of my life... so I pursued fitness.

... And it became the greatest decision I've ever made.

In this post, I will tell you why I believe Fitness is the Catalyst to YOUR greatest potential.

Let's explore this together.

Fitness Is Life

To start, I believe that fitness is the analogy to life itself.

If you follow us on Instagram, you know that I talk often about our logo, the phoenix.

The phoenix symbolizes death and renewal. It is a mythological figure that sacrifices in the present and is reborn anew, better than it once originally was.

This is us.

We sacrifice in the now to make gains in the future. Fitness is also the same. We go into the gym to tear our muscles, then we eat nutritiously so that they are reforged... bigger, stronger, and faster than they once were.

Fitness makes you face the reality that life is difficult. It's challenging. It's not fair. But that there's beauty in that struggle.

Because the transformation comes.

You are just going to have to make a couple of sacrifices to transform.

The Sacrifice

Fitness takes discipline. It takes big commitment to schedule 30-60+ minutes of your time a few times a week to work out.

This means there will be some sacrifice.

You will need a consistent sleep schedule.

You will need to eat more nutrient-dense foods.

You will need to go out less, because your body demands recovery.

The Transformation

As a result of sacrificing, you gain so much more overtime.

You start to see your muscles grow.

You start to lose body fat.

Your mood improves.

You sleep better.

You have a better outlook on life.

You start attracted more like-minded individuals who are changing their lives.

You get bolder. More confident.

You start taking more risks with opportunities for big rewards.

You start a business or enter a new job or career.

You demand more of yourself.

You become greater.

It's About Who You Could Become.

Just imagine what 3 months of proper training and nutrition can do for you.

You will embark on a journey of self-development of not just the physical... but of the mental.

Ultimately, you will see that life is not a matter of who you are now. It is a matter of who you could become.

I used to not be a morning person.

At the start, I often felt groggy and unmotivated, dreading the start of each day.

I experimented with various methods like waking up insanely early, yoga, and affirmations.

These things didn't bring me the positive boost in mood and energy I needed.

However, through this trial and error, I learned that the key to maximizing my morning energy lies not in rigid schedules or extreme measures, but in cultivating a balanced routine that prioritizes energy and a better mood.
