Normal is NOT good enough...

Do you...


  • Struggle with extra bodyfat around your midsection?
  • Have health concerns that may require meds?
  • Notice your body becoming weaker?
  • Feel like you're more susceptible to silly injuries?
  • Get less excited to do fun, active things?
  • Explain away these annoying symptoms as "normal"?

If you nodded your head "yes" to any of these things, it may not be your fault, but it IS your responsibility to get things turned around.

In this email, I'm going to share with you how to start OWNING your health so that you can build a future of OPTIMAL HEALTH.

Why should you listen to me?


Let me share a very personal story...

When I first met my wife back in 1999, we were both big drinkers.


We spent a lot of time hanging out in bars in good ole' Milwaukee WI.


Getting drunk and nursing hangovers were a big part of our lives back then.

Inevitably, we were both gaining weight, becoming more unhealthy, and just generally feeling awful.


To say we were on a decline would've been an understatement.


And then, when I was 29 years old, I got diagnosed with cancer.

My wife and I had just tied the knot and I was terrified of the thought that my bride could become a widow at such a young age.


It's why I made a very powerful decision back then to turn my life around and to get my health back.


And then to KEEP IT!!!



An alternate universe


I often think about how different my life would be today if I didn't make that decision.

Not sure I'd even be here??

But let me ask you...

Have YOU ever thought about what your future is going to look like if you follow the trajectory you're on right now?

Alternatively...

Have you ever thought about what your life could be like in 1 year, 5 years, 10 years, or more, IF you made a powerful decision to live more healthfully?

Because the truth is, you have the power to decide a new direction for your life.

Don't get stuck!!!

For me, it's been almost 20 years since I made the decision to live a healthy life.

Turns out, it was the best decision I ever made.

I was even able to become a Dad to an incredible kiddo.

Here's my wonderful family 20 years after my 1st cancer diagnosis.

Guess you could say things are going great.

Which is why it's so important for you to get this part of your life dialed in NOW instead of waiting for a better time.


A sense of urgency


Now, maybe you're thinking, "Yeah, that's great Tony, but I'm not an overweight, alcoholic cancer patient."


In which case, I would say, "AWESOME!"

The real lesson here is that you have the power to change your life in an instant.

And you shouldn't wait for a MASSIVE scare like I did to make that decision.


Too many people wait too long.


I think of my cancer like an unexpected fall off a cliff.



In an instant, I found myself racing to the ground below.

And if you ever find yourself in that situation, you'll quickly discover that the amount of effort it takes to STOP gravity and reverse your direction is unimaginable.

It's a full time job.


And there's no guarantee it'll even work.


It also has the potential to DESTROY your family...


Those three years I spent battling my cancer was harder on my wife than me.


If I could go back and speak to my younger, pre-cancer self, I would tell him to create a life that your future self will love.


And one of the best things you can do for your future self is build your health.


For yourself, and for the ones you love..


I am 100% confident that my life today is sooooo much better because of the decisions I made in the past.



A call to action

If you feel like you're on your way to the cliff...

And you want to turn around and SPRINT in the opposite direction.

The process can be fairly simple (much easier than when you're in freefall).

It starts by fixing the "big rocks"

Nutrition
Fitness
Sleep

And because I have been doing this for so long, I have figured out the BEST way to tackle all three in a healthy, sustainable way.

But it took a long time for me to dial it all in.

In the beginning, I spent years trying to simplify things so I could live healthfully without it being a full time job.

Problem is, most of the "experts" in the world of health and fitness overcomplicate everything. 

I blame it on two things...

  1. It's a very young, inexperienced industry.
  2. There's too much conflicting research surrounding health and fitness which creates more confusion than clarity.

The fix...

Find an expert who has spent years practicing their craft and actually working with others.

Which is why I created my Athletic Body Blueprint.

A Blueprint to help you build the simple foundations you'll need to live a healthy, fit life...for life.

And if you'd like a personalized gameplan using this time tested Blueprint, just click the link below and grab a time on my calendar.

I'll share all the details of how it works and how you can start implementing it into your life right away..

I promise it'll be some of the best time you'll spend on yourself.


I look forward to meeting you!
