@GreenLifeNY has completely transformed my health and fitness routine.

With my career and family taking priority, cooking three fresh meals a day isn’t always realistic. I always make time to cook and enjoy dinner with my family, but during busy work days—whether I’m coaching or creating content—I need something fresh, healthy, and hassle-free.

Green Life delivers straight to my door, making it incredibly convenient. Plus, the meals arrive fresh, not frozen, in an insulated bag. I also love supporting a small business because it allows for direct communication if I have any questions and I always get top-notch customer service.

This week, I got the bison bowl, bison burger, chicken teriyaki bowl, and turkey chili. Their menu offers a variety of options with all calories and macros listed.

At this point, I could get meal prep from any company for free, but I choose Green Life because they truly stand out from the rest.

This week’s YouTube video is all about my TRT regimen.

I’m breaking down my personal experience with TRT—my protocol, the side effects I’ve experienced, and what I do to manage them.

This video is especially important if:

✅ You’re considering TRT
✅ Someone you know is starting TRT

Disclaimer: I’m not a doctor and I don’t claim to be one on social media.

Do you need to track your calories?

Let’s put it this way – think of your calorie tracking as finances. Some people just have a natural sense for budgeting and some of us don’t. Because of this, you really have to sit down and write out a plan and follow it.

The same is true with your nutrition.

My #1 question to you is: Are you comfortable in your own skin? Do you like how you feel? Do you like how you look? Do you like how you’re performing?

If the answer is no, then you need to come up with a plan and start tracking.

That doesn’t mean you need to use a food scale for the rest of your life but it definitely means using one for the time-being and using an app to track your caloric intake. Doing this even for a couple of weeks will completely change your mindset and your understanding of nutrition.

So – do you need to track? That really depends on where you’re at and where you want to go.

You’re always going to look at your bank statements, but you don’t necessarily need to track that stringently if you’re in a good place.

Over the next few decades, I believe more and more people will choose to opt out of drinking alcohol.

In my lifetime alone, we’ve seen cigarettes and tanning beds fall out of favor as research revealed their long-term health risks. Remember when smoking on airplanes was the norm? I used to use a tanning bed regularly! Now, both are classified as Group 1 carcinogens—and so is alcohol.

Recently, the U.S. Surgeon General released a statement highlighting alcohol as the third-leading cause of preventable cancer in the United States, linking it to seven different types of cancer. He’s even proposing that alcohol carry a warning label, similar to those on cigarette packaging.

We’re already seeing a cultural shift, with younger generations leading the way in rethinking alcohol consumption.

📲 What do you think? Will more people start giving up alcohol in the years ahead? Share your thoughts in the comments!

Greek yogurt is one of my favorite sources of protein.

I’m here at @TraderJoes to show you some things you can add to your Greek yogurt for nutrients and taste:

1️⃣ Sunflower Seed Butter – Adds healthy fats and makes the yogurt more satiating and creamy with a nutty flavor.

2️⃣ Berries – Provide antioxidants, fiber, and natural sweetness while adding a refreshing, juicy texture.

3️⃣ Cacao Powder – Easy to mix in and rich in polyphenols, iron, and magnesium.

4️⃣ 72% Cacao Dark Chocolate Chips – Adding dark chocolate to your diet has a ton of health benefits. Not only does it taste amazing, it also adds varied texture.

5️⃣ Chia Seeds – Not a personal favorite topping but a powerhouse of fiber, omega-3s, and protein. I actually start my day every morning with 2tbsp of chia seeds despite not being my preference of taste.
