    CRX EP 75: Why Your Grind Isn’t Working: The Truth About Fitness That No One Talks About
    Aug 10 2025
    Most Filipinos trying to get in shape think it’s all about grinding harder in the gym. But here’s the truth: your results are built in the gym… and revealed in the kitchen, in your sleep, and in how you manage your stress. In this episode, I share my own story—how I used to train like crazy, follow every program, and still hit a wall because I was ignoring the other 23 hours of the day. I’ll walk you through the most common mistakes I see in the Philippine fitness space today:
    • Adding more and more cardio for fat loss
    • Starving, fasting, and extreme diets that aren’t sustainable
    • Training hard but recovering poorly
    • Not sleeping enough
    • Obsessing over supplements and organic food instead of the big rocks
    • Starting too much too soon
    • Out-training a bad lifestyle
    • Letting alcohol and poor habits kill your gains
    • Forgetting the power of an identity shift
    You’ll learn why sustainable fitness isn’t about doing more, it’s about subtracting what doesn’t serve you—and aligning your training with your schedule, resources, and lifestyle. It’s not about training like a CrossFit Games athlete; it’s about training like you, with humility, consistency, and the right priorities. If you’re tired of plateauing, burning out, or never seeing the results you want—this episode might just change your perspective.

    CRX EP74: Part 4: The Purpose Path: From Proving To Service
    Jul 27 2025
    In this final episode of the series, I unpack how I shifted from proving myself to serving others — and how that’s where I found my true purpose. From the grind of med school to burnout and rage, to being reborn through honesty, simplicity, and stillness. I share the books, philosophies, and daily practices that reshaped my life. This is for the overachievers, the burned-out, the lost — the ones who know there’s more to life than performance. It’s time to stop chasing and start choosing.

    CRX EP 73: Part 3: Slowing Down to Wake Up
    Jul 20 2025
    In this raw and deeply personal episode, I take you through my own breaking point. For years, I was caught in the loop of hustle culture — from med school to residency, from late nights to early rounds, always trying to prove myself. I was trapped in performance, drowning in materialism, lost in rage, and my relationships were collapsing. The grind had me… until it broke me. What woke me up was a series of silent alarms: my wife’s postpartum depression, our daily fights, my toxic behaviors, and a creeping realization that I was spiritually bankrupt. I was lost — until I chose to slow down and face the mirror. I share how I started over:
    🧘 Early mornings, stillness, and mindful routines
    📓 Journaling and meditation
    📖 Reading and reflection
    🥗 Taking care of my physical and mental health
    🧩 Letting go of the unnecessary — things, people, mindsets
    🛠️ Building resilience and peace by doing hard things This episode is for the high performers, the exhausted, the angry, the burned out — those who can’t slow down because they’re scared they’ll fall apart. Maybe falling apart is what you need to rebuild.
