This will definitely ruffle some feathers. That doesn't make it less true.I spent a lot of time being passed around the medical system. I gained weight and prescriptions like it was an Olympic sport listening to their advice. The ones that helped me the most are the ones that bucked the traditional system.My health dramatically improved when I started listening to nature and how we would conduct ourselves in the wild without some "expert" telling me something different.If they need you to come back

My efforts and focus are paying off, but I'm not quite there yet. I can try and replay the day in my head to see where I could have shaved time off, but that's not going to help a ton here. Ultimately, I'm not worthy of being on that podium just yet.When I'm under a minute, I'll worry about finding those smaller details on techniques to shave seconds off obstacles. But the truth is, my cardio still isn't where it needs to be to win. Yet, I can see it's significantly better than it was. So I know the

You can be happy with your progress and not like the results at the same time. That's where I am currently.I know I'm making major strides in these events and in my fitness. I can see that. I can feel that. Yet, I know I'm not where I want to be. Holding that dichotomy doesn't need to be painful. It's just me being honest with myself.It would be one thing if I dismiss all my progress because I don't have the exact result I'm chasing. That's where people get it wrong. They hold the end result as the

Today was awesome! After all the trail fun, I got stuck in a torrential downpour, and right now, it's raining again 😂The race course should be nice and sloppy tomorrow, and the hanging grips will all be a little more interesting 🤷‍♂️Oh, well. I'll get it done either way. That's the Spartan Way!No excuses! Kevin BrewerRise Again From The Struggle

Call me weird if you want, that's alright, lol. But I got goosebumps walking around the Tryon International Equestrian Center tonight. I could just feel the energy of the horses and riders in the warmup fields. The energy of the horses, riders, and spectators at the main field was electric!Maybe that's just the competitor in me knowing what it's like, even if on a smaller scale. Either way, one thing is clear. To make it to that stage, each one of those competitors had to be consistent and

You have to start first!

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/07/31

If you ever stand a chance to be great at anything, you have to start first. You can't be great sitting in the stands watching the action. At some point, you HAVE to get started and be willing to suck at something in the beginning.This is the only way. You can watch, read, talk, and learn about things all you want. Understanding the concept is great. But you will never come close to mastering anything if you don't start doing it.No excuses! Kevin BrewerRise Again From The Struggle

The PERFECT morning routine!

2025/07/30

Obviously, this starts with a little satire, but the rest is solid 😂Look, you don't need to get up and do a rigorous workout, meditate for an hour, or cold plunge. There's no need to face plant into icy lemon water. You don't need to journal for an hour. All of these things might work for some, but certainly aren't right for all.The best advice I've ever heard around this is to match your routine to your brains morning wiring. If you are more creative in the morning, then do something creative. If

Don't over complicate eating!

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/07/29

The world today loves to over complicate things. Why does everyone think science has it all figured out and need 35 studies to prove something before they believe it to be true?Eating is one of those things I keep hearing about. They make you think there's some perfect window, but there's not. In fact, if you needed that timing to be perfect, how would farmers big as big and strong as they are? How would our ancestors make it at all? It's not logical or natural. It's yet another thing they use to

Some people really don't think things through.Yes, Ozzy did some things that are ill advised. He also sought treatment to stop those things and was largely successful for most of the last several decades. He was also fit for most of his life and recently began to work on his endurance again to be able to do his final concert series.So, no, don't just ignore your health and do whatever you want. That's terrible advice. And it discounts the other healthy choices he made outside of the addictions.It

A frustrating, but great day!

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/07/27

I asked God to help me get better, so he gave me an idea to do just that. I already committed to doing it in my head when I realized I underestimated the total distance by almost a full mile.I chose to go low on fuel. I chose to go in the hottest, most humid part of the day. I chose a trail I just found that was VERY technical with multiple hills, a tight path, and lots of things grabbing at your feet.Then why was I frustrated? Because I didn't have the skill I wanted. And to learn them, you have to

Are you giving away your control?

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/07/26

Harsh truth. It doesn't matter what happened in the past. You still made decisions. You still refuse to let go of the narrative. You still allow someone else to reign over your life.I've gone through some pretty shitty things in life, yet I'm still moving forward with a bright future. You can do the same.No excuses!

Easier or stronger?

Consistency is definitely a superpower.My daily overhead presses and bicep curls felt way more crisp today than yesterday. I've been doing 50 a day with a sandbag for the last few weeks, and today was the first day it felt so clean.That means my body finally adapted to it. My body realized this wasn't going away, so it made the adjustment. I have not reached a point of failure doing these. I haven't been extremely sore. I do enough weight that it's challenging, but not exhausting all energy.There's

No matter how well trained you are or how many times you've done something, you will be tried over and over again mentally.This happened to me again today. During my run, I kept trying to back out. I had plenty of excuses lined up to try and justify it, too. When you're in the moment, you can come up with all kinds of excuses that sound good.All I needed to do, though, was stall my emotions for just a few seconds. I let them do their thing, and then I talked back with logic. That was enough to not

Movement isn't progress...

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/07/23

Movement and progress are not the same. You can do more than someone and not advance as fast. How is that possible?It's simple. If you just show up and do the thing for a while, you will make some progress. The more you do it correctly, the more you advance. The more you do it wrong, the less you advance, or sometimes you might even get worse.Yet someone else might come in and pass you putting in half the time you put in. That's because they seek feedback and spend less time doing the wrong thing or

Your scale is a tool!

Rise Again From The Struggle ·

2025/07/22

Your scale is a tool, not a trap.I weigh myself daily when I'm home. The number tends to be the same when I'm not trying to gain or lose weight. But sometimes it's not.If it's low and I'm not trying to lose weight and haven't been in a calorie deficit, I know I'm fighting something.If it's high after a workout or a race, I know I'm retaining water or inflammation. Depending on how much that is, it will determine how I treat the next few days. A pound or two is normal. Five pounds or more, active

Find a way!

Where there's a will, there's a way.I was reminded of this today as I was working to complete a part of a challenge I've taken on to better myself physically, mentally, and spiritually. At first, my attempt was making things worse, and me getting really hurt was a definite possibility. So I found another way.This led me to realize I could still do the original challenge with a different grip. Again, I found a way to accomplish my task. Sometimes, that means you need to try something else to gain

Choices were made... most of them worked out 🤣Alright, I did lose focus for a split second and busted my ass, but I'm fine. My wrist hurts a little, but that's better than the back of my head getting banged into a rock 😬What a great hike, though! I got lost, shared the path with a snake, saw some cool waterfalls, busted my ass, got rained on, and got stronger while wearing my 20lb vest. God provided me with an awesome experience once again, and I'm truly grateful for that!I was also taught the

Nothing will change if you don't believe it first. You can be the exception. You can be the "outlier" people talk about. The outlier is usually the person who just chose not to believe the expert who teaches and preaches to the average.Do you know how many doctors told me there was nothing wrong with me or that I would never figure it out, so I just had to learn how to deal with that?I chose not to believe them and figured it out myself. I chose to ignore them and found the guy who would finally

Gross exaggeration incoming 🤣For real, though, things like this are the reason I do this. Your health is an individual experience. Yes, the masses and the averages can give you a basic idea of what COULD be beneficial, but that doesn't mean it will be for you.That's why you have to experiment and be willing to add or subtract anything and everything that might be holding you back.No excuses!
