Jess and I leave for Mexico in three days.
We’re spending a week in Playa Del Carmen to see if it would be a suitable spot for a winter home-base moving forward.
We have some acquaintances who live there full time and swear by it.
And honestly, I can see why…
Beautiful beaches.
Amazing restaurants.
Dog friendly streets & parks.
A strong health & fitness scene.
We’re looking forward to potentially securing a winter "home away from home” to escape our dark, cold, Canadian winters.
And that’s when it hit me…
This wouldn’t have been a consideration if I wasn’t in great shape.
I remember in 2018-2019, when I gained 40lbs over the course of a couple years while scaling my in-person personal training company I had at the time.
I had the belly.
I had the man boobs.
I had the love handles.
And I also had the insecurities that came with it.
I remember turning down invites to pool parties.
Or being the guy at the beach who would keep his shirt on and avoid going in the water.
I can still feel the gut punch of insecurity I felt almost daily of not being 100% confident in my body.
If that version of Robert had the opportunity to spend his winters in a tropical location, he’d have turned it down.
Building a lean and chiseled physique isn’t just something you build to maximize your health.
It’s something you build to allow yourself to enjoy the finer things in life to the fullest.
It’s the only true unlock on the planet that allows you to feel 100% confident and comfortable in who you are.
I’ve lived both sides of the fat-fit equation twice in my life.
Once as an overweight kid.
And again as an overweight adult.
The comparison isn’t even close.
Fit wins, every time.
So get out there and do whatever it is you need to do to get yourself in great shape.
Dedicate the time to working out
Prioritize your nutrition.
Put yourself first for once.
And you’ll unlock an entirely new world of opportunity for yourself that the old you simply wouldn’t have gone after.

PS, I’ve opened my client roster for 5 men who are ready to drop at least 20lbs of belly fat by summer and achieve visible abs. Reply to this email with the word “LEAN” to request more information.
