I’m not a politician. I’m raw, I’m real, and I say it how it is. Podcasting for me is a way to exercise that freedom. It’s also a passion of mine to empower anyone I can.

I take pride in my podcast. One take. One press of record. No redos. No edits. No scripts. Straight off the top. It’s either great or it f***** sucks 😂 Makes for the best content. Accessible on Apple Podcast, Spotify, and 6 other platforms! Just type in Mind Over Matter and look for the Dalmatian logo! Can’t miss it!

Episode 001 is about my take on humility (audience chosen topic) and is my first episode back in over a year. It’s raw, real, fiery, and you’ll feel the passion. I’m also pretty damn sure it’ll keep you entertained as well! Press play and give it a listen! Give it a share, screen shot it/tag me, and let me know that you’re listening! Thanks for your support!

A couple of days ago I made a post saying that if my previous post (about the return of my podcast) surpassed 100 total likes then I’d resume content creation. Well, the people have acted and the show will go on! I’d like to have an episode out to you by this Friday AM. Talking is the easy part. I just need a few days to figure out how to do this s*** again 😂

What’d you like our first episode back to be about?

1) Why people fail when it comes to New Years resolutions
2) The importance of not giving a f***
3) Can too much humility be a bad thing?

Tonight I’ll be launching a YouTube video of my NEW “Road back to competition” series! I’m REALLY excited about this because this will be a PROCESS you can follow and JOIN ME in! Whether you like CrossFit or not 👉 That’s not the point. The point is the TRANSFORMATION. The battle to getting back in shape, dialing in nutrition, and overall mindset. Because, I’m sure it’s safe to say all of us have struggled with one or all of the above this year. Plus, it helps to have someone you can relate to, right? Believe me when I say I’ve struggled with all 3 this year! But, I’m eager to get back on track and I hope this is a means for you to do so as well! ACCOUNTABILITY 👍

Tonight’s video will be what’s pictured below. I’ll be doing a voice over while I perform the workout! To keep this FUN I won’t be saying how many videos per week I’ll be posting. To follow along you’ll have to subscribe to my channel (it’s free) to get notified when future videos are posted! Drop a like if you’re going to press play tonight at 7:30PM Central when I drop the link!

As an active Firefighter/Paramedic, I’ve seen an uptick in call volume with patient’s calling 911 for what their Apple Watch tells them or what they read on a quick Google search. WAY too many of you ride or die with what’s displayed on your watch. Don’t be naive.

But, as a healthcare professional (unlike your friend who read a yahoo article and is now a proclaimed expert), I wanted to educate you and tell you that your Apple Watch (even though it’s a great tool) is indeed flawed. Also, there are a handful of factors that effect the accuracy of the watch. Examples being: The weather, the band not being snug to your wrist during exercise, the type of exercise you perform and what exercise you select on the watch, your arm movement during exercise (movements that aren’t rhythmic), skin perfusion, and the lack of constant watch calibration for updates. All of which will lead to inconsistency and inaccurate, real time data.

Secondly, the Apple Watch ISN’T (at least not currently) a reliable enough tool in lieu of an EKG you receive at the hospital or Doctor’s office. An Apple Watch can ONLY detect a normal sinus rhythm and a POSSIBLE irregularity. THAT’S IT. Even Apple said “The Apple Watch can’t detect a heart attack, stroke, blood clots, or other heart related conditions.” Think of it like this... When you go to the doctor or call the Fire Department and obtain a TRUE EKG 👉 They put an a**-load of stickers on you, right? Well, in dummy terms, think of the electrodes as cameras. Each camera is taking a picture of your heart from a different angle. Hence why you get the MOST ACCURATE reading. On an Apple Watch... you wear a SINGLE, distal (far) “camera” that already states it can’t detect serious underlying problems. 🤔 Don’t be an idiot. If you feel like something is wrong 👉 Call 911 (it’s free to obtain an EKG if not transported) or consult your local physician.

LASTLY, as an example, if you feel like you are having a heart attack 👉 DO NOT GO TO GOOGLE AND TYPE IN “Am I having a heart attack?” Because, 99.9% of the time google will tell you that you ARE having a heart attack. Point blank. Simple. Right to the point. If 💩 hits the fan and you don’t know what the f*** to do.... CALL 911. Your friend who works behind a desk with no medical experience whatsoever doesn’t have the answers. We do. We get paid to solve the problem and give you the right answer 👊

2,977 burpees ☑️

I’ll be honest... it was difficult, but sitting on the rower for 8+ hours and rowing 100,000 meters was way worse! Regardless... America. That is it 🇺🇸

Whats the good word?

NEW Mind Over Matter FireFighter Fitness Challenge!

01/09/2020

🚨🚨Long post alert 🚨🚨- Would mean a lot if you took the time to read 👍

Due to a recent move and poor AT&T customer service 👉 I’ll be without internet until the 8th. Ergo, no Podcast content! I’ll also be leaving on vacation to the lake until the 7th so it’ll be a nice time away to reset and recharge! Kinda worked out perfectly you could say!

I’m an open book if you couldn’t tell. I don’t hide anything. Just a real dude who stays in his own lane and plays his own game. Saying so, I want to be honest with you.

I work full time at the Fire Department. It’s the best damn job in the world. 24 hours on 48 hours off. On my days off 👉 I hustle. I train 13 (4-6 per day) 1 on 1 personal training clients each lasting an hour, workout on my own for 1-2 hours a day, have my own online training regiment that I program for that others follow, chase after two Dalmatian puppies, and run a Podcast/YouTube channel all by myself. It’s a lot. It requires a lot of time and energy I don’t have, but Celsius keeps me going

To some, growing a Podcast/YouTube channel ain’t 💩. Well, I challenge you to experience it and then chat with me. It’s tiring, it’s tedious, it’s monotonous, and requires an EXTREME level of commitment. Side note, I can’t tell you how many people I’ve seen start a podcast and then go cold turkey weeks later. It’s WAY MORE than just talking into a microphone. Especially if you want to monetize it (like I do).

On average (depending on the topic) it takes me 3-4 hours to film and another 5-6 hours to edit. Assuming I get it right. Ya... no BS. Any content creator is nodding their head right now. I’m also doing it for free. I don’t get paid. That’s no exaggeration either. So, take that time and add that into my current schedule and you’ll see it doesn’t add up. Because, I don’t sleep. Hardly ever. Bad? Ya, I’m aware. But, when you work a job like I do you learn that decent sleep doesn’t exist. Even at home. Nodding your head yet?

So, long story short 👉 When I say your support goes a long way... it does. It’s what fuels me. It’s what keeps me going. Even though sometimes (after 12+ hours of invested time) only 10 of you like my post or only 30 of you view my YouTube video. Sucks a**. LOL. Worst feeling in the world. But, it’s part of the growing process. Any business owner can relate.

I come to you (at the end of a marathon message) sprinting to you for your help. Here I am practicing what I preach and there’s no shame in it! I’m asking you to help me in this journey. I’m asking for a simple favor. I’m asking you to drop likes on posts, type something in the comments, share it on your social media if you enjoy it or find it valuable, etc. I’m asking you to take 2 seconds of your time to go to my YouTube channel and press the subscribe button (it’s free) and turn on notifications. I’m asking for your continued support. Simple 💩 that can be done in seconds. I’m a guy with a true passion to serve and help others live their best lives because we only get one shot at it. I need your help seeing to that and carrying this mission out. At the very least, if you can appreciate a guy who wants to make the world a better place and doesn’t (and will not) give up... drop a like on this post 👍 Love y’all! Link to my YouTube channel is below. Only takes 2 seconds to hit the red button and the bell next to it. See y’all next week!
