Weekly questions:
Question 2- (26:36) How do I get into a good fitness routine. I’m so all or nothing.
Question 3- (32:16) Good morning Coach Josh and Coach Kyle! I wanted to ask a quick question. So about 1-2 months ago I hit a 1 rep max of 345 on deadlift. Now it seems that I’ve hit a brick wall and 315 isnt even moving that good. I’m struggling to get the weight up consistently and I’m confused why? My diet has gotten better since my 1RM, my other PRs are making good progress, and my workouts have been going smoothly. Do have any advice on what I could try to get through this brick wall or any idea of why this is happening?

Instead I made it a lifestyle
Limit extremes (Excessive overeating, guilting yourself etc, any setback is just that and the journey continues)

Choosing to always make healthy decisions
