Michael, you apologized 3x in this podcast for it not being as polished or “buttoned up”, but hey, I think speak for all of us when I say we love and glean value from ALL your content not matter how it materializes. I actually love the side of you that’s less scripted and more vulnerable. It’s why you’re my main teacher and mentor right now. Appreciate you so much. 4:30 pm 6783 steps
This is real. This is what people connect with. This podcast right here is what makes you great. Thank you for being vulnerable for us and showing us that we can do the hard things even when we don’t feel like it.
Your vulnerability this episode without a doubt will be so impactful to many. You are such a great person and role model to many. Keep up the great work, prayers your way while navigating this season of your life.
I listen to every episode and gain something every single time, but this episode as much as you think isn’t buttoned up and polished hit on another level. Made the 1 second decision and had a great day. Appreciate your vulnerable side and all the content you give us! Well done.
You are an asset to the fitness community. Thank you for always showing up. You say all the things we know but need to hear, you’re appreciated. Well wishes and hoping the lows pass quickly 🙏
I’m hugging you thru the internet. My heart goes out to you. Your vulnerability is palpable. I pray that God’s peace that surpasses all understanding surrounds you and your family during this difficult time. 🙏
Smoak this helped remind me of the man I was training myself to become, the things that i as practicing, you opened my eyes again and have been ever since i started following your content a couple of months ago keep doing big things brother hope everything you dream to attain comes to you and wish your father the best and i hope to meet you someday love from the Turks and Caicos Islands
I am sorry for the breakup and the dog i know how much it hurts and i hope your dad will get better soon just take it day by day sending so much love. I am also going through hard time i had ankle sprain and stayed 2 months in bed i cant compete in the races ive been 6 months training for and broke up with my partner after 1 week of my injury
Hey man, I just want to say your videos on tik tok and your podcast have helped me more than you know. You have helped me find a purpose and reason to keep going. I appreciate you showing up and you are in my thoughts and prayers and I hope you start feeling better ❤🙂
Michael, I get so much value out of your podcast, which is funny-because we couldn’t be more different. But, I’ve been a freelance writer since the pandemic, and I find that diet, fitness, and my business are inextricably tied. If your content ever veers into how you manage your business-I wouldn’t hate it. It’s been so cool to learn from how you’re experiencing the quick success!
Started at episode 1 and just finished the one and now caught up. Have enjoyed all the insights,quotes and knowledge and will continue to follow along.🙌
Michael, the audio is only playing on one ear. Try to use the Premiere Pro effect "Fill Right With Left" if you use that to edit anything in the future.
Hey man, really appreciate you sharing this! I'm 9 months out of a long term live in relationship and have struggled with the identity changes like you mentioned (and I miss the dog haha). I hope you'll share more thoughts like this when it feels right. Prayers for your dad. Step count @ 9:30pm: 12,990
Man, right headphone working or not: I just finished the episode and want to send a heartfelt thank you your way. Don’t apologise for this format of conversation. I know it may feel like we come here for the information you share, but I’m sure the vast majority of us come here for you. And this today was you. Keep punching brother, much love
I thought the TikTok was a gold mine till I discovered the RUclips

Audio is only one side. In ur video editor make sure you go to the audio track and see that it’s going to both ears.
How do you know you’re doing the right thing for optimal growth without wasting your time? Is it just trial and error?
