Raising them. Building the career. Being the one who handles it.
Now your parents need you too, the kids somehow still do, and one day you catch yourself in the mirror and do not recognise the person looking back.
Twenty questions, about three minutes. A real answer at the end, not a sales page.
That lands as fear and as sadness at the same time. Both of them are telling you something real.
I coach people in exactly that spot back to strong, capable, and recognisable to themselves. It takes less time than you think, and it does not take over your life.
People come to me sure they know what is wrong. They snack at night. They have no willpower. They need to be stricter.
Then we look at the actual week, and the night snacking turns out to be a breakfast problem. The lost motivation turns out to be six months of bad sleep. The knee that hurts turns out to be a hip that stopped moving two years ago.
Seventeen years of coaching adults has taught me that the thing you noticed is rarely the thing to fix. Find what is upstream and the symptom often quiets down on its own, without you fighting it.
Come in wherever you are. Most people start with the quiz, because it costs nothing and takes three minutes.
Twenty questions that tell you which of five things is holding you back, and the one move to make first. You get the whole answer on the page, and the longer version by email.
Take the quiz →A field guide for feeding a busy life. Seven modes, real-world playbooks, a stock list and a starter plan. No macro math and no logging, written for people who already tried the apps.
Get the guide →Send me your situation. Your week, your workouts, your eating, the aches you work around. I record a walkthrough of what I would change and in what order.
Workouts built for your body and your week, nutrition that survives a real life, and me checking in the whole way. Twelve weeks to build something that holds.
Start a conversation →“I had been away from the Woodshed for as many years as I had been a member. I was starting to feel enough age related aches and pains that I actually started to notice the days when nothing was hurting, which was becoming more and more rare. I wanted to get back to that kind of life before it became more difficult to achieve.”
“Three months later, I feel ready to join a gym again. I’ve already gone for a hike up a mountain. Even over distance, I was able to describe my experience with different movements and receive relevant correction or encouragement.”
“The nutrition program helps me to build good healthy habits one step at a time. I’ve learned the importance of hydration, proteins, fruits/veggies and carbs, physical activities and great strategies and tools to build my healthy menus according to my activities. Justin is a great listener and is great at helping each individual work on their individual goals.”
“The distance training I’ve been doing with Justin is tailored to my personal goals. I train Jiu Jitsu a few times a week and compete regularly. I’ve had planning sessions with Justin so he can target the areas I’d like to work on. As an older athlete this targeted programming is essential to my continued development.”
Which is where it should have been the whole time.
