Receive Text UpdatesI have twin teenage daughters, and being physically capable isn’t optional for me. Whether people admit it or not, the world treats families differently based on presence. Strength, confidence, and discipline send a message long before words ever do. I’m not interested in being underestimated, especially when it comes to protecting my kids and setting an example of what stability looks like.
What’s your favorite way to train or stay fit?I train daily for about two hours, mixing cardio and lifting in a five-day rotation. Leg days—because the universe has a sense of humor—land on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Friends send calisthenics challenges that I usually fail, which is humbling and excellent for my ego. My workout time shifts with my constantly changing work schedule, but excuses don’t. Consistency shows up whether conditions are perfect or not.
What would you do with $20,000?Take my girls on a trip and just pay down debt. Nothing flashy or attention grabbing there.
