Can’t believe I forgot my anniversary post…. I’ll keep it simple this year. February 26th marked 12 years sober. No 12 step program, no higher power. Just will power and determination to turn my life around and not continue down the self destructive path I was on. XXX

2023 recap: my son is my whole world. So here’s a picture a month (except for August and November cus instagram only allows 10 pics) showing how much this beautiful boy has grown. Only resolution for 2024 is to keep being the most present and best father I can possible be. Happy new year y’all.

TRUE TIL DEATH Lifting weights changed my life 11 1/2 years ago, and it’s truly the dream to have been able to create this home and community for so many amazing people. Here’s to two years and many more to come. GHOST GYM FOREVER.

Glacier X Yellowstone family trip. Lauren and I have traveled a lot, but this trip hit hard. Making these memories with my baby boy are unlike anything. This trip was another reminder how lucky I am to be able to give my son this life. LIFE IS GOOD

MEET RECAP! This squad… this community… this FAMILY!!! Where do I even begin. This picture is just a small amount of the @ghostgymmiami fam that competed, worked, or came to support the meet yesterday. I’ve been powerlifting 10 years, I’ve ran over 10 meets, and I’ve attended a majority of the biggest meets in the sport over the last 5 years… yesterday took the cake for me man. This was my favorite meet EVER. The energy was electrifying. The excitement, the happiness and support was unlike anything. I’ve never had so many young kids on my platform and seeing the fire in their eyes and the excitement just hit this old man in his feels. I’m so grateful to be apart of this new generation and to put @usapowerlifting_fl back on the map and give all these kids the best meets possible. So many people to thank…. My spotters and loaders… it was most of these kids first time working the platform, and you would have never guessed. They moved like a well oiled machine… the fire in this new generation to be involved and support is amazing. 5 years ago I didn’t know what the future of powerlifting would be, and if it would fizzle out like CrossFit. Well..this new generation isn’t letting it go anywhere. All of my judges…new and old…thank you so much. Amazing calls from start to finish. Special thank you to my good friend @mother_teresa_of_gains for flying in to help me ensure my first meet as a @usapowerlifting meet director went without a hiccup. I wanted to ensure I represent the federation to the highest standard and David made sure that happened. Not to mention he’s the best MC in the game. My wife @laurenuslar for literally EVERYTHING. All the Ghost Gym fam who helped set up and tear down. Didn’t complain once and were happy to stay and help after a long day without me even asking. If you know me, you know I hate asking for anything or any help. Ghost gym….I love you all so much. What WE have all built together over the last 2 years is beyond special. You all have made it possible for me keep investing in this gym, and YOU all have made it a truly all inclusive place. No clics, no toxic bullshit. All good vibes and COMMUNITY. Aight ima stop ranting now…LIFE IS GOOD

11 years sober today. Every year that passes further and further away from my former self, the memories become more and more vague. What a different life I lived. What a different person I was. I’m so lucky and grateful I broke out of the cycle and spiral I was in. Finding fitness truly saved my life. I didn’t go through a 12 step program, I’m not in recovery. I AM recovered and I’m a new man. Thank you to everyone over the years who have helped me grow and change. Complete change is possible. It’s not fucking easy, I’ll tell ya that. But nothing truly worth something in life does come easy. Create your future, create your destiny. Life is good. XXX

Absolutely overwhelmed with joy, love and happiness after this weekend. This is the 5th pro meet that I’ve ran, and usually I can’t sleep the week of the meet and at the end of the weekend I’m just beat and glad it’s done. Not this year. The amount of support and help I had from my @ghostgymmiami family and everyone else who was involved in the meet, made this event smoother than I could have ever hoped for. I’m truly living the dream. This month marks 11 years sober, and I never could have imagined this is where I would end up in life. Thank you to every single one of you who were involved in making this event happen. I can’t wait to do it bigger next year. @theghostclash
