It’s been a long road, but it’s time to finally get this taken care of.

We've all seen the guy with a 45lb plate using momentum every rep...

When done right the decline sit up is a great exercise. But first you have to understand what your "6 pack" abs do. They contract pulling your ribs to your hips.

So here i go to full extension in the bottom position allowing my abs to stretch as much as possible. If I could figure out how to put something like an abmat under my lower back so i could get more extension I would.

Then I think about rolling up, if you keep you torso straight you are asking more from your hip flexors and less from your abs.

Descend slowly, this is key. Make the eccentric work.

Progression: no weight > weight held on chest > weight held over face > weight held behind your head.

Save this for the next time you're hitting abs.

A lot of men tell me they're training consistently, but they aren't seeing results.

My first question is always:

"What program are you following?"

More often than not, the answer is "none."

They're working hard. They're showing up. But they're making training decisions based on how they feel that day instead of following a structured plan.

Effort matters.

But without a plan, it's hard to measure progress, make adjustments, or know whether what you're doing is actually working.

Training hard is important.

Training with direction is what gets results.

Comment "PLAN" if this sounds familiar.

Not every exercise has to be the best possible muscle-builder.

A strict seated cable row is probably a better choice if your only goal is hypertrophy. Stable setup. Clear line of pull. Easier to load and progress.

But real-world strength asks for more than that.

You need to pull, brace, rotate, control your hips, and create force through more than one plane of motion. That’s where variations like this can fit.

Use the basics to build muscle.
Use smart variations to build capability.

DM “PLAN” if you want help structuring training that builds both.

At some point, you stopped putting yourself on the list.

Work.
Stress.
Responsibilities.

And slowly, you disappeared into all of it.

That’s where REBUILD starts.

Comment “REBUILD” if you’re ready to take yourself seriously again.

You’re not lazy.

You’re just trying to make training fit into a life that doesn’t support it.

And that’s why you keep starting over.

Follow for structure, not guesswork.

Your workouts didn’t stop working.

Your life changed.

Less sleep.
More stress.
Less time.

And you’re still trying to train like nothing did.

That’s the problem.

Comment REBUILD if you’re ready to fix it.

You’re showing up.
You’re putting in the work.

So why isn’t anything changing?

Because effort isn’t the problem.
Lack of structure is.

If you’re ready to fix that, comment “REBUILD”.

Most men over 35 think they need to train more.

But they’re eating like they already do.

That mismatch is why nothing changes.

Fix your intake before you add more workouts.

DM “RESET” if you want help tightening this up.

Most men over 35 aren’t stuck because they’re not trying.

They’re stuck in patterns that cancel out their effort.

Skipping meals → leads to overeating
Low protein → keeps hunger high
Inconsistent training → resets progress every week

That cycle makes progress feel harder than it should.

Here’s how you fix it:

• Eat at consistent times
• Prioritize protein in every meal
• Train on a fixed schedule

Fat loss after 35 isn’t about doing more.

It’s about removing the chaos.
