The 7 Pillars of Online Calisthenics

I'm turning 45 soon, started training 15+ years ago, quit my job 10+ years ago, to develop a system that I see as invaluable for my body and something I can pass on to others.

Develop elite-level strength through calisthenics, deeply connected to gymnastics principles.

2. Endurance

Why Protein Powders Are a Waste of Time (and Money)

Let’s get straight to it: Protein powders are unnecessary.

If you’ve been told you need them to hit your fitness goals, it’s time to rethink that advice.

Real food does the job better—without the artificial processing, misleading labels, and digestive issues.

1. You Can Get All the Protein You Need from Real Food

Unless you’re a professional bodybuilder eating six meals a day, you don’t need a powdered supplement to reach your protein goals.

Whole foods like eggs, meat, fish, dairy, legumes, and nuts provide plenty of high-quality protein. Plus, they come with essential nutrients, healthy fats, and fiber that powders simply don’t offer.

2. Drinking Food Isn’t the Same as Eating Food

Your body processes liquids differently than solid food. When you chew, your saliva releases enzymes that kickstart digestio...
