Had my first visit to @nike today in @beaverton.oregon . I couldn’t be more honored that they provided me with my own parking space. #justdoit @michaeljordan23 @jumpman23 @theofficialmichaeljordan @mj23 #thegoat (at Nike World Campus) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxyesL_D-ih/?igshid=5zj4vnhorfyi

Yesterday I got up at 4:30 am to make it to my workout on time. Got to the St Louis airport and had to leave my supplements at TSA because I was being paged for my flight and didn’t have time to inspect them. Changed planes in Chicago and landed in Portland about 7 hours later. Drove 3.5 hours to Bend and got a great workout at @boss.sports.performance with @kboss11 and @zachsudfeld . Definitely worth the commute to crush a workout with these two guys at Kevin’s awesome gym. For the pic they made me feel like I was casting for one of the #lollipopkids from the #wizardofoz #trainhard #gymlife #nevergiveup #performancecenter #giants #raiders #chiefs #jets #superbowlchamps (at Boss Sports Performance) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxxEXTdjBC8/?igshid=wl5umutd5bbb

I was looking for a place to train today and there are several Powerhouse Gyms in the area. I like finding gyms that have great atmospheres and end up in Hard Core Gyms, Old School Gyms and Performance Centers in many cases. I’ve liked the Powerhouse Gyms I’ve trained in before, so I figured I’d hit one of them. Turns out I ended up in the Highland Park gym, which is the Original Powerhouse and it’s over 40 years old. Great gym, lots of equipment, and a lot of people working hard. I was getting ready to leave and this big guy says, “Hey, where are you from?” Turns out that it was Ron Love. A former IFBB bodybuilder who competed in the 80’s and 90’s. He competed in 8 Mr. Olympia’s and was inducted into the IFBB Hall of Fame. I had wrapped up my workout and he was waiting on a client. We talked for over an hour about him competing and training. My transformation. Mindset and consistency when it comes to reaching your goals. Ron still looks great and he’s still training hard. It was a real pleasure and inspiration meeting him. @Ronlove_ifbbpro #ifbbpro #ifbb #trainhard #nevergiveup #mrolympia #fitfam #powerhouse #bodybuilding (at Powerhouse Gym Highland Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxdzpdXDxba/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1v7wt0urqplkc

Yesterday I ran in the @greenberetchallenge with @drewntravis @michael.comstock.79 and Brandon. Our team took second place in 3 hours and 1 minute. I knew this was going to be challenging because my friend #markballas. is the one who put it on. This was the toughest event that I’ve competed in. It was just under 9 miles. The terrain was tough with lots of inclines, mud and water. The obstacles involve carrying and dragging all kinds of heavy odd objects for long distance through the messed up terrain. Things like yokes with sand bags, railroad ties and sleds with the sandman (uniform stuffed with a lot of sand). I’m happy with how we finished. My legs were smoked. I was actually getting spasms in my hands and legs on my drive back home. The great thing is that my joints all held up pretty good. The last race that I think I did was another Green Beret Team Challenge two years ago. I’m getting back into these again but I’m going to have to ramp up my training. Some of the OCRs out there could be really considered just fun. The GBC is a bitch. It will test you and it will kick your ass #greenberetchallenge #team #ocr #race #endurance #pain #strength #mudrun #outdoorlife #motivation #goals #nevergiveup #fitfam (at Big River Ranch) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpNrbqjnv53/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=u11yoykavrkr

Went for my second real rock climb ever. The first was yesterday. I’ve climb a little when I was younger but nothing like this. It’s awesome. I could truly embrace rock climbing even more. Very challenging and it makes you think. It reminds me of solving a puzzle or something. You really have to think about how you are going to get over and across all of these obstacles. Finding a hold for your hand or a place to put your foot. I had an awesome workout doing it. I burned over 1100 calories and my heart rate hit 191. Had a full body workout and really felt it when i got done. It’s exciting to be able to conquer natural challenges. Definitely don’t want to make a mistake but you have to go up with confidence not doubt and you have to stayed focused. #outdoorlife #hike #redrockcanyon #vegas #confidence #goals #challenge #climbing #rockclimbing #trainhard #focus #strong #fitness #motivation #heights (at Las Vegas, Nevada) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bos65cCHE-b/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1hn6eg93t25r4
