Four signs your liver is overburdened that most people attribute to something else:

1. Persistent fatigue despite adequate sleep
2. Difficulty losing weight, especially around the midsection
3. Skin issues including acne, eczema, or dull complexion
4. Bloating and digestive discomfort after fatty meals

The fix starts with removing the burden: alcohol, seed oils, processed food, and unnecessary medications.

Then support with cruciferous vegetables and adequate hydration. ✅

Start raw-dogging life.

Drive in silence. Read at the gym. Talk to strangers. Eat without social media. Run without headphones. Walk barefoot on the grass. Delete social media from your phone (except twitter). Cook from scratch. Hand-write a letter. Stare out the window on a flight. Skip the GPS. Get lost on purpose. Eat at the bar alone. Talk to the bartender (flirt with her). Do nothing, actually nothing. Take a walk with no destination. Enjoy boredom because the richest experiences are "boring."

Simply start to not give a fuck and your life will become amazing.

Underrated life advice:

Pick the city before the job.

The place you live fuels your energy, your pace, and your future network.

The job is just what funds it.

Ben Affleck opens up to Howard Stern about sobriety in a way that feels genuinely honest.

He says early recovery is a “10 out of 10” in difficulty because addiction often isn’t really about the substance, it’s a habitual response to pain. He points out this shows up for people through gambling, relationships, or even social media just as easily.

For about 18 months, he tried pure willpower. His own words capture why that doesn’t work: you can win a thousand times, but you only need to lose once.

The real turning point came through pain, specifically realizing the impact his addiction had on his relationship with his kids. That’s when he says he truly hit “done.”

Since then, he says the urge itself has been gone. Not white knuckling it, genuine peace, with the obsession fully lifted.

A rare amount of honesty about what recovery actually looks like

Underrated life skill: Letting today be today. Stop dragging yesterday into it and stop borrowing stress from tomorrow. Handle what's in front of you. You'll be surprised how much lighter life feels when you carry one day at a time.

I’m going to be telling people this all 2026:

Too much Protein can actually hinder results

Yes…you’re reading that right

TOO MUCH PROTEIN can actually HINDER results

Let me break down why for you guys…

- You only need a limited amount of protein before extra intake stops providing additional muscle-building benefit…realistically ~.75g per lb of bodyweight is probably good and ~1g per lb bodyweight is definitely plenty

- You only have so many calories to allocate each day (cut, bulk, recomp doesn’t matter…the budget is the budget)

- When you overshoot protein, those calories must come from somewhere…this means you’ll need to displace calories from carbs or fats

- Carbs are what drive training performance

- Better training performance = more robust stimulus = more growth

- So, if you’re eating more protein than needed…this is BY DEFAULT going to result in you eating fewer carbs than is optimal which means poorer performance which means a less robust stimulus which means less growth

The goal for building AS MUCH MUSCLE AS POSSIBLE is simple:
- minimum necessary protein
- minimum necessary fat
- carbs comprise the rest of your calories

This means the specific formula is:
- Calories in line with goal
- Protein ~.75-1x BW
- Fats ~.25-.3x BW
- Carbs fill in the rest

This is why “more protein” isn’t always better….once you pass the threshold, every gram you add means a gram of carbs you lose!

A few notes:
- “Too much protein” is not an issue many people have…this post is for folks that are really looking to nail every little detail to get the best body comp results possible
- This post is all about optimization for a very specific goal…it is discussing what’s best in general in theory, again, for a VERY SPECIFIC GOAL
- Individuals should always keep ADHERENCE/COMPLIANCE top of mind when making any training/dietary decision
- So, when one of you comes back to me and tells me you don’t feel as full on .75x BW (protein) as you do on 1.25x BW and it has caused dietary adherence issues in the past….just know that my advice to you would be to stick with the 1.25x then but be accepting of the trade offs on the training performance/muscle growth front!

Wow this medical center in Tijuana looks amazing …

New City Hospital

The idea of being able to do all these tests and scans in one day sounds nice .. but

My question would be what happens if they find something ?

I guess the point is so you’d know what specialists to go in the us

Have you done one of these all day medical checkups before ? Would you ?

The second you realize people love people who love life, everything changes. Energy is contagious. Enthusiasm is magnetic. Nobody wants to be around the guy sleepwalking through life. You want great people and great things around you? Gotta bring the heat today. Let’s fucking go.

Secret weapon for life: Be the type of person who's easy to be around. Speak when it adds value. Be quiet when you have something to learn. Stay calm when things go sideways. Laugh more than you complain. Most of all, be steady. Steady wins trust. Trust wins everything.

What a privilege it is to:

Afford a gym,
Buy healthy food,
Have legs that walk,
A brain that functions,
Take our bodies to their full potential.

Don't waste it.

Instead of whining about the fact that you have to exercise be grateful for the fact that your body is physically capable of doing so.

Four years ago I wrote about recovering from cardiovascular injury after COVID infection and vaccination. The question readers kept asking was simple: "What can I do to help my body heal?"
Four years later, I am more confident in the answer than when I started.

The older I get, the more I realize you can reinvent yourself as many times as you need. New standards. New habits. New mindsets. New people. New career. It's never too late. You can change. Today, tomorrow, and as many times as it takes to create the life you want.

[Dean Turner @DeanTTraining]

A reminder from Atomic Habits by James Clear:

“New goals don't deliver new results. New lifestyles do. And a lifestyle is a process, not an outcome. For this reason, all of your energy should go into building better habits, not chasing better results.”
