Vision

Our vision is to promote all aspects of health and fitness, including general, sexual, mental, and social health. We also want to create a space for men and women to be part of a supportive brotherhood and sisterhood.

It’s all about the basics! Diet, exercise, sleep, and avoiding environmental toxins, and community

I coach men on how to improve their health, fitness, and overall well-being.

Diet and fitness are part of that journey.

Health and fitness don’t have to be complicated.

Getting healthy and fit doesn’t have to be complicated. Some general principles always apply, but there are no one-size-fits-all solutions. I can help you develop a routine that best fits your needs.

The Basics of Rucking: FM TBOR - 01

The Basics of Rucking offers a comprehensive guide to rucking, blending military discipline with fitness and personal growth. Authored by Ken Schafer, it delves into the multifaceted benefits of rucking, including enhanced physical fitness, mental toughness, and the therapeutic effects of nature. Schafer, with a rich military and exercise science background, provides an authoritative voice on the subject. Their book is a well-rounded resource for both beginners and seasoned ruckers, covering essential gear, techniques for load distribution, exercise regimens incorporating a rucksack, nutrition, and hydration principles.
