Progress Through Change

💥July 2025 vs Sept 2026💥

In 2025, our feedback was, “more back and arms.”

That’s lived rent free in my head for the last 13 months. I knew I wanted to complete transform both of my back poses, as they’ve always been a weak link.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s bodybuilding, so we ALWAYS have more work to do. That’s the beauty in it. But, I’d say, from show to show.. mission accomplished. ✅

Through intelligent programming, focused exercise ex*****on in the gym, HARD training, dialed in nutrition, recovery and supplementation, we pulled all the pieces together. And then did it.. Every. Damn. Day.

Chop wood, carry water.

2026 Heart of Texas ✅😎

This was my heart and soul man. This was every ounce of effort I could muster over the last 20 weeks. We left no stone unturned, checked every box, and executed as perfectly as possible while balancing the other, more important aspects of life. I haven’t felt this often in my life, as in the past I’ve always been in a chase.. but, I’m really proud. Every year we’ve hit another level. 📈

To an amazing wife, who trudged through trenches with me, I love you and couldn’t do this journey without you. Anyone who knows a bodybuilder, knows an incredibly selfless, supportive, and encouraging partner behind them. But I have the best one. 🥰💍 Bri Martin

To a kick ass friend, coach, and mentor, I spent years of my life spinning my wheels, drowning in anxiety unable to make any progress in this passion of mine. What we’ve done together in two and a half years is EXPONENTIALLY greater than what I was about to do on my own in 10. I continue to say it, you’re a wizard. I cannot wait to see what the future holds together. We keep working big man! 👊🏻💪🏼 Drew

Incredibly humbled and grateful for such amazing friends and family to come out and support. I am unbelievably fortunate and a bit overwhelmed to say the least. Bodybuilding shows are weird. And long. So thank you for stepping into this world to be present for me, that speaks volumes. ❤️

A lil Labor Day Weekend recap 😌

1) Teaching Flapjack to read.. 📚

2) Bri and I got to see our nephews! Homies are on a real bulk, bigger every time we seen them.. 🥲

3) Hanging with grandma, aka Morty’s favorite person. Second weekend in a row he’s spent 2 hours straight on the couch with her ❤️

4) Stairs. Lots and lots of stairs at this point in prep. 🥵

5) My morning ritual I genuinely get excited for everyday! ☕️📝

6) Honing in on the details for this years posing routine with Posing Coach Justin. He’s number 9 in the world in Classic Physique.. Absolute honor working with one of the best in the game. 🤝

7) Bri and I have picked up reading fiction and are totally obsessed. I’m halfway through Katabasis in 6 days..😅

8) 2 Weeks Out check in 🫡

9) Bird watching! Bri put a hummingbird feeder right by our bay window and I’m shocked with how many we’ve seen!🐦‍🔥

Training or relaxing today... why not both? 💪😎

Happy Labor Day! Drop your pick below 👇

Only dumbbells or only machines, FOREVER! Which team are you?

Lucky for all of us, we don't have to pick.. We've got access to both. Dumbbells force you to learn proper patterns and have more flexibility in set up. Machines let you isolate and push it to the brink. Neither one is the "better" tool, they're just different tools for different jobs.

The real skill is knowing when to reach for which one, not picking a side and sticking to it out of loyalty.

But, for a fun conversation, if you had to choose just one for the rest of your training life, which one are you going? Drop your pick below 👇

Down 11lbs and finally free of the bloating. 🎉

This client came to me frustrated.. the uncomfortable midsection bloating, the scale that wouldn’t budge, the constant guessing about what to eat. Just feeling a little lost.

We took a simple approach with whole, nutrient-dense foods, done consistently. No extremes. Four meals a day and a solid snack.🥗

Her energy is through the roof and she’s pumped about the progress! And, she’s stepping into a Pilates teaching certification, so we’re shifting her nutrition into performance mode to fuel what’s next. 😎

This is what happens when your plan works with your body, not against it. 🙌🏻
