I'm telling you to compare yourself to others!! Don't judge them, don't judge yourself but compete with them! Surround yourself with people that are at a higher level than you in all areas. At least that's what I do! It inspires me to keep pushing myself to that next level. Yes, I'm proud of what I've accomplished so far, yes I'm happy but not SATISFIED! Elevate your energy! LETS GO!!
After raising your awareness its time to put it to use! I've been getting in the best shape of my life and I can credit it all to my awareness. Every movement, every bite of food, i'm thinking of how I feel immediately and also taking note of how I feel as the day goes on. The best training advice I can give is listening to your body and starting to learn how to read your reactions to stimuli. Keep working, keep learning and anything is possible!! It takes time, patience and consistent focus! (m...
We build up these barriers that we are conditioned to living in. The second we step outside these lines or something disrupts them we feel stressed and anxious. Practice trying to remove or widen these barriers to open up your life to many more experiences. To me, as I keep removing these barriers there's less and less that can disrupt my inner peace. My energy for life keeps getting elevated! Maximize your Monday!!
First morning with Mom on vacation in Colombia. Tons of coffee, tons of energy, tons of motivation!! Get your shit together this Sunday and don't sit on your ass! Keep it simple, train smart and lets gooooo!!
Being able to detach from the outcome of your goals has two benefits. 1. You're free to flow along any path that will get you there and 2. You're not attached to any specific outcome, just the essence of it. Meaning if you want to be a big YouTuber/Podcaster, maybe you don't make it big but you are able to inspire and motivate on a large scale in a totally different medium. The point is be clear with what you desire and be open to achieving that desire in ways you haven't even thought of yet. EN...
Your body and mind want to adapt! Given the right stimulus, you simply make progress! This concept alone makes me want to max out everything I do and find ways to get better. One thing that I love getting better at is the act of THINKING about ways to get better. Mild psychosis in the fact that I'm not only getting better at actions but I'm getting better at finding ways to get better! Let's go!! Find a way to make things harder and that'll tell you body/mind to find a way to get better!!
The best advice in all aspects of training and life towards achieving goals is be your own teacher. As soon as you're able to understand things yourself instead of just being told what to do you unlock your potential. Don't rely on people for answers go out and learn and you will grow so much more. Invest in yourself and over time all the knowledge you acquire from your experiences will make you incredibly valuable. And then you can share with others!! KEEP IT UP!! LETS GO!!
To ride the wave you have to practice, you have to read your environment, you have to be in the right place at the right time and you have to be patient. Even if all these things are exactly how they should be, you still might miss the wave. It's about getting back out there and going for the next one. Once you catch the wave is that it? Or are you gonna keep pushing the limits?! Find the wave of life you want to ride and use it to learn about what you're willing to work for!
How are you using your time? Spending your time? Is time real? For our reality it is and it's very limited. I choose to make every second count and really try to maximize every second! Raise your awareness and take note of when you're wasting time and how much time is wasted. Grateful for every second I get to do what I love to do!!
Mazing Monday! Let's Go!! Had a fantastic weekend, met incredible people and it opened my eyes to even more! There's people that drain you, people that fuel and then there's people that together, your energy grows exponentially! Be clear on who you are and then put yourself in the environment to meet those people. Stop holding yourself back, push yourself and don't make any excuses. Find a way to surround yourself with the energy that will take you to the next level!
My man Chi aka DQ (Double Quads aka 4 Legz) joins me (two legz) to talk dunking, competition and getting in the zone! My boy has a 47" running vertical and a standing vert of 42". The way he focuses and pushes himself to the max always gets me so hype! I see a lot of potential in him and his ambition fuels me to push myself even harder! thats what its all about!! Have a great Self-Talk Saturday and spread the love!

I forgot to shoutout the Dunk Lifer i got too Hype 😂 i will be doing 2 tomorrow I talk about my intermittent fasting, veggie drink and my usual dinner. I love it because its great for my routine and my energy has never been more consistent. I have a ton of energy every single workout and I feel light and fueled! Elon Musk had a presentation on his new device Neuralink which seems insane! Have a great Thursday, keep thinking, go for that perfect 10!!
We living today!! Living with passion is my favorite way to live and I want everything I do to be fueled by passion. I believe that no amount of hard work and determination can ever surpass the energy that comes from passion. You may be able to match it, but it still comes from a different place. Either way you can't top it! Find a goal thats true to YOU and there's no stopping you!
The Secret is WORK! You have to get started, you have to learn how your body reacts to training. There are simple principles such as building strength and speed but you have to understand HOW. It's different for every individual based on their genetics and how their training has been in the past. As in life, GETTING STARTED down your path is the only way to make progress. Start now and start learning!
There's always a positive way to look at every moment. Doesn't mean there's always good in every moment, but you can find someone to look at it that's more beneficial going forward. Your subconscious likes the KNOWN! It'll do anything to avoid the unknown. How can we not only become aware of this but also use it to our advantage? Build that mental muscle, get started now, keep pushing yourself and start this week off right!!
Had to break out the mobile podcast for this one!! Keep moving physically and thru life! Get that body sweating and get the blood flowing. Do what you can today to stay moving! Building healthy habits, building energy is a gradual process and its all about momentum. Have a great Sunday, let's keep working!!
Range of motion and tension are two factors that are really important when progressing your tendon health. Speed and weight cause more tension so understanding this is essential in rehabbing your tendon and strengthening it. Spend your time wisely this weekend! Keep working, keep building those healthy habits and keep the momentum going!!
It takes time!! You must take a step back to make progress in this area. You have to completely pause your goals so you can give your tendons time to heal. Then only isometrics with a lot of patience, listening to your body and assessing pain scale every 48 hours. Slowly build up to body squats, then weighted squats then baby jumps all VERY GRADUALLY! Be patient, take the time to build the foundation so you can continue to BUILD LONG TERM
Awareness. I believe awareness is the foundation of any goal, physical and mental. The ability to understand why you feel a certain, how your body responds to training is essential for progress. It takes time and sometimes it's tough to think about but it's worth it. Question your entire life, question your goals, question your passion. By doing so, you will find yourself on the path that you're made for that fills you with the most ENERGY!
Welcome to DUNK LIFE DAILY!! If you've been following me, you know I'm obsessed with energy and progress. This new season is a new and improved version of what I've already been doing. I want to start every single day with energy, share my experiences and help you get fueled up! My Dunk Journey has been a metaphor for my journey thru life. It's a process and I'm super pumped to share all my insights as I continue to push my limits! LET'S GO!
I started watching Black Holes on Netflix last night and now I understand gravity is a fabric.....I don't get either but I love nothing more than being freaked out by space. That will never leave my mind and I find it incredibly beneficial for mindfulness. It keeps me grounded...that's not the right word. It keeps me aware how insane this life is and allows me to maximize every second of it without being held back by simple anxieties or fears. ENJOY YOUR LIFE!! Black holes are real.
Feeling amazing! Daily VIDEO podcast starts today! We'll see how long I can keep it up. It's all about pushing yourself, doing just a little more and slowly raising your baseline. I love the feeling of making progress and it's never over. The more I do, the more I achieve the better I feel. My body has been feeling better than ever as I continue to listen to it and build that mind body connection. Keep working!! Don't overlook any detail but just take one baby step at a time.
Had a cup of coffee and a quick talk about mornings. "Quick" as in short but also as in high speed. You can see where I get it from...It's always helpful to think about what you want to do and what you enjoy so every free moment can be utilized. That's how I like to live my life and I love the feeling of making progress. Even the tiniest amount of progress on a passion project is exciting since you can feel that ball rolling. Get started! Enjoy your morning, enjoy your day, enjoy your LIFE
Rolling into the weekend on the freedom train. Most people seem to have more free time on the weekends so use it to build your awareness! Try something new, try something hard, push yourself, see what you can learn and discover. Why not shoot for some absurd dream? Chase that life that would make your existence amazing. Idk what's going on but I'm feeling great! Start with maximizing your energy and start NOW!
Happy 4th of July! Enjoy our freedom! Spread the love, free yourself of your previous beliefs, keep learning and keep questioning what it means to be free. Define what freedom means to you so you can maximize your life and start working towards it now. BLESS UP!
Good Morning! My man Peter joins me for a cup of coffee and talks about his morning routine with S.A.V.E.R.S. He also depicts his optimal future lifestyle. I find it fascinating to share experiences with each other about what works for us and what doesn't. I like to keep exploring ways to improve my routine and stay open to learning other perspectives. Have a great wtf wednesday!
Another great morning, energy is full and lots to do! Stay focused on what you can do today and what you should prioritize. It's easy to get overwhelmed (at least for me) with all the goals and things I want to accomplish. Keep making progress and listening to where you want to focus your energy. Whatever you want to get better at, try to teach someone. The act of teaching is one of the best ways to learn that skill on another level. Even if it's just being that positive energy, help someone els...
