Hey Business Athlete NationThis week’s newsletter is all about taking the little things and making them big. We’re talking morning routines, dialing in on your daily decisions, and flipping the script on mindset—from “What if I fail?” to “What if I crush it?”You’ll get chest day tips straight from the Godfather of Bodybuilding, a Ziploc burger hack (yes, that’s a thing), and insights on using empathy as a competitive edge. Plus, we’re talking about turning chaos into clarity and building a brand that’s 100% you.So, if you’re serious about living a high-performance life, you’re in the right place. Let’s make it happen!Decisions, Discipline, and the Mindset Shift You NeedYour Morning Sets the ToneEvery day is packed with decisions, big and small. But the first few of the day? They’re pivotal. Every time you hit snooze or scroll social media, you’re making micro-decisions that set up a pattern. Are those decisions setting you up to react… or respond?In the Gym with Jon and MartyChest Tips from the Godfather of BodybuildingJon and Marty dove into legendary trainer Charles Glass’s chest routine, highlighting his unique, precision-based approach. Glass swears by the chest press machine to isolate the pecs with full control and decline presses to target the often-overlooked lower chest. Tweaking angles on these moves can turn standard exercises into powerful, muscle-targeting tools. Strength isn’t just about weight—it’s about maximizing each movement.The Power of IntentionA productive morning starts the night before. Period.Evan Marks reminded us that building a strong mental foundation is about taking intentional actions every single day. He swears by his cold shower routine—not because he enjoys it, but because facing discomfort first thing in the morning sparks a sense of accomplishment that lasts all day.Mindset Shift: Curiosity Over FearEvan also tackled the power of curiosity. Instead of asking, “What if I fail?” flip it to, “What if I succeed?” This simple shift in language can unlock a whole new level of confidence and resilience. Imagine where you could be if you didn’t let fear lead your decisions.The Big Talk on KetosisWe got a nutritional deep dive from Jorie Janzen on ketosis and how it can fuel decision-making with precision. But fair warning: if you’re considering keto, it’s not just about cutting carbs—it’s a total diet overhaul that might not be for everyone.Building Stronger Teams, Real Connections, and Lasting Results with EmpathyEmpathy as Your Competitive AdvantageToo often, we dismiss empathy as soft. But the team flipped the script, highlighting how putting yourself in others’ shoes strengthens connections and fuels authentic leadership. Empathy builds bridges where judgment builds walls.Empathy in LeadershipAdam House took us deep into empathy as a business tool, particularly how it helps leaders balance vision with real results. It’s easy to get caught up in daily demands and sacrifice long-term impact, but empathy and vision allow leaders to guide their teams effectively without losing sight of either immediate or lasting results.Mind Fuel with AJ Zeglen: Turning Empathy into PerformanceAJ dug into the science of empathy, explaining that it’s more than a feel-good gesture. Leading with empathy physically calms our body, opening pathways for clearer thinking and better performance. If you’re not naturally inclined toward empathy, don’t worry—AJ recommends starting small. Try connecting with those close to you, noticing where you share common ground, and practicing understanding over judgment.Small Choices, Big ImpactConfession Time: The Ziploc Hamburger HackKeith shared a hilarious confession about an “inspired” date night burger, thanks to Jon’s infamous Ziploc burger hack for hotel rooms. Jon’s tip? Skip the bun, toss a burger in a bag, and keep it simple. Keith, however, went all out, with a big bun and extra toppings—and ended up feeling “a little less jacked, and a little more stuffed.” According to Jon, it’s all about avoiding processed foods, so Keith joked he might need a tattoo that says “No Processed Foods” in a very, let’s say, motivational spot. Things definitely got colorful from there.Stop Playing Small. Build a Brand That’s 100% YouMost people only tap into about 50% of their potential, hiding parts of their true selves behind what they think others want. Daniel Brenneman’s advice? Before you get into creating content, start with a solid foundation. He uses the “stacking blocks” analogy: without a firm base rooted in who you are, every compromise throws you off balance until the whole thing topples.Instead of rigid “pillars,” Daniel advocates for a “playground” approach where you explore your real values, frustrations, and experiences freely, creating a brand that’s truly you. One of his key insights: “Language is a window into culture.” The words you ...
