Why Effort Isn’t Enough: How Principles — Not Motivation — Create Real Results

A deep dive into why discipline, structure, and daily standards beat passion and hype every time. Someone once called inquiring about training at Results.

Fix the Voice, Fix Your Life: The Resolution No One Is Talking About

Cravings: From Enemies to Allies It was two o’clock in the morning when I woke up with what felt like a heart attack. I’d never experienced anything like it before, so naturally, I jumped to the worst-case scenario. My heart was racing, my chest tight—panic took over. Should I call 911 or wait it out? […]

Your Body Is Smarter Than You Think — Stop Confusing It. There are a few mistakes most people make at the gym. Before we even go there, let’s get one thing straight — your body is not your enemy. It’s not lazy, broken, or stubborn. It’s just doing what it’s designed to do: adapt to […]
Parenting According to a Smart Ass

Most people know raising kids is hard. Shocker, right? Still, I catch myself asking: what else can I do to make sure these kids don’t grow up to be complete disasters? Truth is, no matter how hard I try, there’s always a chance things won’t turn out the way I want. Growing up in communist […]

How Old Is Too Old to Start Training?

How to Get What You Truly Want in Life: No Excuses, Just Action

Getting What You Want I’ll make this short and sweet. We all hope to get what we want. And to be honest, I’ve always gotten what I wanted. I always wanted to live in a different country—a free country. I live in the U.S. I wanted to be the best in the world. I became […]
It’s Not What You Say. It’s What You Do.

I arrived to pick up my daughters from gymnastics camp a few weeks ago. One of them sat in the back while the other claimed the front seat. They take turns—since the front is considered a privilege and a sign of maturity, it often becomes an opportunity for a sister fight. This time, the front […]
