Monday Mindset

Happy Monday Mindset!

“OMG, babe, something is wrong, I cannot walk!”

That is what I shrieked in late August to my wife Tatiana as I hopped off the treadmill just finishing my 2-mile run in agonizing pain!

You see, I love to run as it unlocks mental clarity and creativity which is my therapy. I run a couple of miles a day.

However, while I am a fit guy, flexibility and mobility are the weakest part of the fitness game.

The problem?

It became apparent when my legs locked up in the pain due to the tightness. I was now facing a Level 10 problem due to my lack of focus on it.  

I realized in that moment, that unless I begin to take action toward increasing my flexibility, there’s a tough road that awaits me.

So the next day I swallowed my pride and researched stretching coaches in my area which led to David.

I walked in on September 10, terrified but knew I needed help. 

After the initial stretch, while difficult, I could see the value.

I then asked for a long-term discounted membership.

Why long-term?

Well, I know that 1-2 months of stretching is a good start. However, it’s not going to reverse the 41 years of lack of attention.

So that next week, I got to work with David. 

Initially, we met 1x per week and after a few months have now increased it to 2x per week with 1 yoga session on Sundays.

It hasn’t been fun or easy.

In fact, hard, really hard.

However, fast forward nearly 6 months and I just hit my 40th guided stretch.

Am I a rubber band man yet?

No.

However, I’m out of pain and can see significant progress!

Game changer!

My message?

In the words of my friend Craig Ballantyne:

Identify what your Level 10 problem is and then begin to take Level 10 action against it!

This is how you build a better life.

No, it won’t be easy, but if you stick with it, it will be worth it.

Make it a GREAT week!

Happy Monday Mindset!

This past weekend I spent in Daphne, Alabama.

I was there with my Fit Body Boot Camp Media team to capture some inspirational content showcasing some amazing transformations of our Fit Body clients.

While that was the business focus.

I was also there to acknowledge our amazing clients of Daphne Fit Body, and my dear friend Steven Hadley.

Steven and I met over 12+ years ago and he’s had a big impact on my life and career. We have learned and grown with each other over the years.

He has a big heart and passion to serve our mission of Inspiring Fitness and Changing Lives which he has done successfully for nearly 15 years.

He’s also a great leader and we have a mutual admiration for the great Nick Saban. 

To his big credit, he’s brought massive innovation to our brand so it was a neat opportunity to spend some time with him, his wife Lori, and the team for a win-win.

While there I had a BIG AH-HAH which made me think of you.

With all the hustle, bustle, and distractions in this thing called life.

The truth is that if you have 1) health and 2) relationships with good people who love you, you’re doing well in life.

If you’re anything like me who sometimes forgets this truth.

This weekend was a giant reminder of my blessings.

My hope is you take 2 minutes this Monday and reflect on yours.

Make it a GREAT week!

Happy Monday Mindset!

Your Health is Your #1 Wealth.

I was humbly reminded of this famous adage last week.

“A healthy man has a million dreams, a sick man has one.”

Why?

I picked up the flu with a 102 fever for 4 days.

It broke a 2-year no-sick streak.

I was seeing stars, in a world of pain, and it wiped out my week.

It wasn’t fun but was a good reminder of today’s mindset message:

Your Health is Your #1 Wealth.

Invest in it.

Without it, nothing else matters.

Make it a GREAT week!

Happy Monday Mindset!

I spent the weekend in Costa Mesa, California with over 100+ Fit Body Boot Camp coaches from across North America.

My HQ team hosted this Fit Body Elite Coaches Training and the first of 2 main live events of the year.

During the 3 day event, we poured into our coaches to level their knowledge up so they can level up their client’s experience and results.

This creates more impact and income for their location.

Win-win-win!

Looking internally, I was there to teach but I learned.

I learned that there are alot of good people in the world.

I learned that our youth is hungry to learn and grow.

I learned that they want impact and have a work ethic.

Many were 1/2 my age.

However, my biggest takeaway was this reminder:

Live Events Change Lives.

Why?

There’s something magical when humans get together working towards a common mission.

We are tribal and this unlocks a creative and inspiring part of our nature.

As the saying goes: 

 “Iron Sharpens Iron”.

Today’s mindset message is this:

Take the shot you’ve been longing to take.

Put yourself out there even though there’s fear.

Attend that event you desire but are nervous to attend.

You will learn, grow, and be inspired to take more action toward a life of income, impact,t, and legacy.

After all: 

Live Events Change Lives.

Thank you for your support as the fundraiser ended last week.

The good news is that we raised nearly $7,000 for the California Fire Foundation Relief effort because of you!

Donate to the Fit Body California Fire Foundation Fund

Hitting so close to home, I have many thoughts about the tragedy that unfolded. 

Most are outside the scope of this email. 

However, the 1 consistent thought that hasn’t escaped me is the fragility of life. 

As humans, we are programmed to default to the fallacy that life is permanent.

Cognitively though, we know it’s not. 

It’s an interesting dichotomy of human nature.

The events of last week were a stark reminder of the value of what’s important, the fragility of life, and how little time we have left.

I hope you let that set in. 

As we look to 2025, I also hope you have grand goals that will help you, your family, and your community. 

I urge you to reflect and make sure you’ve prioritized what’s truly important.

Yes, financial success is mission-critical so should be a big focus.

However, your goals should include attention to your relationships, loved ones, and the impact on your family and community you can make.

Speaking for myself, I re-prioritized a couple of things for 2025 which is a silver lining of the tragedy.

My hope and message today is for you to do the same!

Head up and onward my friend.

Happy Monday Mindset!

I had a different mindset message for you today.

However, will table that until next week.

Why?

It’s no secret, that the recent fires here in Los Angeles, California have taken center stage. 

Our country has had a rough go with Mother Nature over the last few months.

This one hits especially close to home.

As such, I’m including a mindset message I sent my Franchise Partners today.

I trust you will get value and would like you to share the message as we unite together to help a bad situation & those in need.

–

Family!

The good news?

HQ and our Fit Body locations are safe at the moment.

The bad news?

Many others are not so lucky.

As I took a step back with my team this week, we reflected on our mission here at Fit Body Boot Camp.

It is to inspire fitness and change lives.

We do that in many ways.

Mainly through fitness, nutrition, and mindset coaching.

However, we also do that by coming together as a community and helping when others are in need.

Well, my friend, there are many in need.

The people of Los Angeles, California, and most specifically, the California Fire Foundation need our help.

This foundation has the most boots-on-the-ground access to help the victims & provide relief but needs financial resources. 

Solition-minded, we are jumping in to help.

We just initiated the Fit Body California Fire Foundation Fundraiser which we will be sharing with our global clients in this Thursday’s BTS newsletter.

Our target is to raise $25,000 by this Friday, January 17. 

Here is how:

Donate to the Fit Body California Fire Foundation Fund

We have included some extra swipe files below to help and will be posting some social media graphics on our HQ social for you to share to add to the brand awareness effort.

Time is of the essence. 

Thank you for your support and we are excited to inspire fitness and change more lives with your help.

Happy Monday Mindset!

I hope your 2025 is off to a great start.

I just back from a 12-day trip to Brazil to spend Christmas and New Year with my wife Tatiana’s family. 

During the trip, I was there to make good on a promise I made Tatiana’s mom 12 years ago.

I also celebrated a milestone of 8 years of being alcohol-free.

Here’s a little backstory:

For a long time, it was tough to see I had a problem with alcohol. 

I was never a daily drinker. 

In fact, my drinking became less frequent through my early 30’s.

However, the 2nd truth is it became more aggressive on the times I did drink about a handful of times per month.

For me, when I start, I cannot stop as a craving for more develops.  

This is the same craving that sugar induces for most people.

 The problem?

I didn’t understand the craving from my biochemistry made me drink differently than most people.

I was blind to this fact. 

As a result, I had bad experiences due to overdrinking that drew on my relationships and self-confidence.

The straw that broke the camel’s back?

It was seeing a loved one with the same problem’s life come in distress.

After a mountain of personal, relational, and legal issues, it became apparent this was a serious issue needing resolving.

My advice was to stop drinking completely and seek help.

Good advice.

However, I realized the cold hard truth that this was advice I needed to take myself. 

The realization of being a hypocritic was painful enough that it got me to stop drinking and seek help.

This is my message today.

We all have our cross to bear. 

Mine is alcohol.

Yours might be sugar, porn, or gambling to name a few.

Whatever your coping mechanism.

Realize this truth:

There are many people out there who have solved the problem you might be currently going through.

The 2nd truth:

They want to help.

You just must go through enough pain, have the desire, and then dig up all the strength and humility to seek it.

No, it won’t be easy.

Yes, you can make a change.

The best part?

When you do, your life will change just like mine did 8 years ago last week. 

If I can be of service, I’m here cheering you on.

Just reply.

 Happy Monday and let’s go 2025!

Every year that passes by, goes by quicker.

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

Live from Rio De Janeiro Brazil having arrived yesterday.

Why?

To make good on a promise I made my mother-in-law Cristina back in 2012.

The promise?

To bring her daughter home for Christmas after sweeping her away from her Brazilian home after living there from 2010-2012.

Looking back, it’s been a 12-year sprint of keeping that promise.

Of course, there are other big benefits of making the journey including gaining access to perspective and my Brazilian family.

Travel gives you perspective and develops leadership ability.

I buy into the adage.

“Perspective is Leadership and Leadership is Perspective”.

So this annual ritual makes me a better leader.

Looking ahead to this special week.

My main message is to be a person of your word.

When you make a promise, keep a promise.

No matter the challenge or inconvenience. 

Not only does this create more credibility with others. 

It creates more self credibility.

The best part?

Self-credibility is the foundation of self-confidence.

This is your success formula!

Merry Christmas!

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

Back in 2021, my friend and franchise partner CJ, who has a heart of gold, came to me and our HQ team with an idea.

“Bryce, we do such great work here at Fit Body helping our clients with their fitness and fat loss goals, but know we can do even more! 

As we know, Thanksgiving is an amazing time but can be tough for those in need. What if we create a giant food drive with all of the brand participating to help out the less fortunate and make a massive impact together?

He then began to draw out a plan on a whiteboard and finished his pitch with this:

“If we execute well, I think we can raise over 100,000 food items together”.

Well, on CJ’s and his teams back, we launched the vision in 2022 and we called it the Fit Body Food Battle.

It was a small start but we started.

Fast forward a few years, and our 3rd Annual Fit Body Food Battle results are in as of last week. 

The good news?

We beat last year’s tally coming in at 194,200 food items donated as a brand. 

That’s right, this little vision produced 194,200 food items of donation to help the less fortunate!

What’s even better?

Friends and Franchise Partners Abe and Danika from North Meridian Fit Body in Idaho took 1st place with 30,899 items donated. 

We are grateful for the massive contribution!

Looking ahead to 2025, with your help, we know can do better though with our target of donating over ¼ million mark.

Today’s message?

Big things start small. So get to starting!

Make it a GREAT week!
