That's me on the left!
Second place at the IBJJF 2018 No-Gi World Championship (submission grappling). Hats off to all the amazing competitors!
In the finals, I stepped out on the mat under the lights, my son Blair watched confidently. I felt quick on my feet, fit, and ready to "play all my cards."
Helio Gracie taught that you must "always assume that your opponent is stronger, bigger and faster, and therefore learn to rely on technique, timing and leverage rather than brute strength."
I prepared for it all..
But alas, my takedown offense was shut down by superior Jiu-Jitsu. We battled each other in multiple positions, he won two, I won one. He walked away with a 6-2 win.
Job well done on his part!
We don't rise to the level of our goals, we fall to the level of our habits...and that's why you must make damn sure that your habits are in line with your goals.
Once you realize that, then you can begin the long road to winning...and that starts with learning to lose.
You'll never win the war without facing the losses of multiple battles.
All of my kids have competed...and before they learned to win, they first learned to lose.
When you learn that, you become the scariest person on the mat...the guy who is not afraid of losing is always the guy who learns the fastest and gives everyone hell.
Be that person!
Win or lose, give them hell.
It's the same in living young.
And in 2019 I hope to equip you with everything you need to give your health your best shot...to give you everything you need to fight back against the anti-heroes of health!
That would be the food giants manipulating your every bite! Your hormones have become the biggest losers!
Most people’s hormones have failed them because of medications, sugar, pharmafoods, artificial sweeteners, and juice.
Each of these substances has either assaulted their calorie-burning ability, or caused people to shove too much for into the pie hole.
It’s not entirely your fault…
Companies like Nestlé, Gatorade, Kraft, and Unilever (and many, many others) have spurred the “eating-too-fucking much” trend by manipulating our food supply and your taste buds so that you’re never satiated.
Think about that…
Nestlé was recently caught red-handed paying nutritionists and scientists in China, US, and Brazil to manipulate diet trends and research. The New York Times covered this in a chilling piece titled, “How Big Business Got Brazil Hooked on Junk Food.”
In it they showed how Nestle hired “foot soldiers” to hand out free samples of processed foods (drenched in sugars, artificial flavors and pharmafood) to impoverished moms. Once hooked, they’d set up delivery routes to ensure ongoing supply for the entire family, successfully cutting them off from their traditional diets.
The fallout has been epic rates of obesity, diabetes, heart disease and a growing mortality count from premature death.
In Asia, the food giant vetted mainstream scientific research to insist that, “children who drank malted breakfast beverages — a category dominated in Malaysia by Milo, a sugary powder drink made by Nestlé — were more likely to be physically active and spend less time in front of a computer or television.” Of course, this was blatantly false!
Kids drugged with sugar, artificial flavors and pharmafoods (chemicals made in a lab and designed to trick your brain into eating more) usually want to stare at their TV, phone and iPad, not go outside and run around. The end result is an epidemic of obesity, depression and diabetes.
These food manipulators have most of the planet covered. No matter where you are, you’re currently living in an Evil Empire that has imprisoned you with the invisible bars of food craving. It counts its money based on how many bites you eat, and goes back to the lab to find ways to increase your over-eating year after year.
Your stomach can’t keep up, your bowls are bloated, and your intestines are so filled with processed food and shit that it’s pressing on your arteries and inflating your blood pressure as fast as the profits flood into Big Food companies. These “food makers” and their profits manipulate everything from Google, your kids’ education, to media, to science, to politics.
I want to help you win this war before it's too damn late...but you have to first see how you've been swindled to lose!
