The heaviest weight some of y'all carry is other people's opinions. Care less, lift more. You're welcome 🤝🏿

News flash: Alcohol is part of your diet too. Less booze. Better body.

Unpopular opinion: If you're over 30 and can't swim, please grow TF up.

Having a gym conversation with a non-gym person is like explaining taxes to a toddler.🙄😒

Your environment is either raising your standards or lowering them.

As a fitness enthusiast who enjoys running, I can confidently say walking is still the most underrated tool for fat loss.

[Shawn The Gym Leader @Shawn_TakingOff]

If I only had 15 minutes to train, I'd do a 15-25 kettlebell swing EMOM for 15 minutes.
Cardio. Strength. Core.

If only you could inject discipline, Ozempic might've really been onto something.

The real Father's Day gift? Being healthy enough to embarrass your kids for years to come. Get in the gym.

Best gym advice: FCK your feelings. Show up anyway.

There's nobody I despise more than the guy doing a full workout in the sauna.💀🙄

[Shawn The Gym Leader @Shawn_TakingOff]

Some of y'all taking pictures of y'all calorie tracker ain't being honest. That app only knows what you told it. 💀🤷🏿‍♂️

[Shawn The Gym Leader @Shawn_TakingOff]

Y'all be one deep inhale away from passing out trying to look skinny in pictures. Just hire the damn trainer.😭💪🏿

[Shawn The Gym Leader @Shawn_TakingOff]

I usually know what I'm eating tomorrow.

Most people don't know what they're eating in an hour.

Obsessive? Maybe.

But at least I don't have to ask "what's for dinner?" every damn night. 😎💪🏿

[Shawn The Gym Leader @Shawn_TakingOff]

Saying you don't have time to work out while spending 6 hours on social media making everybody else's problems your own is crazy.

[Shawn The Gym Leader @Shawn_TakingOff]

Call me messy if you want. If I catch one of my client's spouses cheating, I'm telling 💀😂🤷🏿‍♂️

[Shawn The Gym Leader @Shawn_TakingOff]

If your diet has an expiration date, so do your results.

[Shawn The Gym Leader @Shawn_TakingOff]

People will sit all morning, eat a Nutri-Grain bar for breakfast, wash it down with a soda, and then blame getting older for being tired.

[Shawn The Gym Leader @Shawn_TakingOff]

Doubt creates limits. Belief breaks them.

[Shawn The Gym Leader @Shawn_TakingOff]

Hard truth: Just because the weight is heavy doesn't mean the work is. Intensity beats load every time.
