Happy Friday. Welcome to this week’s edition of Friday Thoughts, where I share what’s been on my mind and in my feed this week. Enjoy!
Hollow Body Hanging
Love this breakdown from Meg about how the hollow body hang is a great skill to master if you want to nail some pull ups.
Effective
Eric Cressey has been doing this since before social media was big. This message actually bears some weight coming from him, and is a reminder that many of the real trainers are too busy coaching clients to spend their days making Reels for engagement.
Skills
This is impressive! Clem would be too scared to be up that high.
America’s Most Climbing Mountain
Still haven’t climbed it!
Back in the gym on Monday, see you then!

Reasonable/Tough Matrix
I was recently reminded of Dan John’s Reasonable vs. Tough Matrix. It’s a simple idea from one of my favorite strength coaches, and it’s a great tool for auditing your own efforts—especially around training and nutrition.
Dan John’s point is that pairing a tough diet with a tough training program creates a huge amount of stress. If you choose to do it, it should be something you “lock down” for a short, intentional window a few times each year—not a lifestyle. Living in a permanent cycle of starving yourself and trying to train hard is unsustainable, and honestly, unreasonable.
When you break the matrix down, you get four combinations. Each can play a role at different points in your year:
Reasonable Training + Reasonable Nutrition
This is the foundation. This is where long-term consistency happens.
Reasonable Training + Tough Nutrition
A season of tightening things up while still keeping training manageable.
Tough Training + Reasonable Nutrition
Where most athletes live. They’re pushing hard and need proper fuel to support it.
Tough Training + Tough Nutrition
A short, focused sprint. Useful at times—but absolutely not sustainable year-round.
At the end of the day, this is about honestly assessing what your body needs and where you can realistically be strict. Most of us try to be strict in all areas, all the time, and it backfires. Instead, build flexibility into your system. If you’re going to crank both the training and nutrition dials to “tough,” treat it as a temporary phase—not your default.
—Justin Miner
use RIR to get really strong
If you want to get stronger you’ve got to pay attention to your reps in reserve or RIR.
RIR is a way to identify how many more reps could you do AFTER completing your prescribed reps.
When chasing strength, your reps in reserve should be low.
Here’s a scenario:
You’re goblet squatting 4 sets of 10 reps.
You pick the blue kettlebell because that’s what you always use. You do your 10 reps concentrating on excellent form, breathing and everything else. Suddenly, I run up to you and offer you $300 for 10 more reps. You grind them out and eventually complete the 10 additional reps for a total of 20.
The last 3 reps took everything you had. You have no reps in reserve.
If you finished that set at the prescribed 10 reps, you left a lot on the table. You had 10 reps in reserve!
The sweet spot of getting strong, and not trashing your body, is leaving 2-3 quality reps in the tank. In this scenario, the kettlebell weight was too light for the rep scheme of 10. You should never be able to double the reps with the selected weight. That’s a clear indication you won’t create the stimulus required to make strength adaptations.
The general goal with strength training is to create stress that our bodies will adapt to. Make sure you’re hitting the right stimulus by checking in and seeing how many reps you have in reserve.

How to Start
Potential members start with our 3-session trial. This serves as an opportunity to meet the coaches and see how we do things at GAIN. Our individualized, feels sort-of-like a group, but isn’t really a group, vibe is different, and unlike any other gym you’ve been to.
On your first visit you work closely with a coach doing our Intro Workout. This gives us an opportunity to go over some finer details like getting organized and breathing and seeing how much range of motion and stability your body has. We talk about injuries, training history and what you want to get out of your gym time.
Regardless of your fitness level and experience, we want you leaving the gym after that first session feeling as though you could have done more. Our saying is, we can write hard workouts, but need to prove that one day 1. We want you to build a new habit you can stick with, easing in is key. With our consistency over intensity mindset, many self identifying “not a gym person” has turned into a dedicated member who have been with us for nearly a decade.
You’ll learn a whole bunch of new movements and lingo, if you’re a newbie to the gym it can be a bit overwhelming. Just know that we’re aware of this, and try to take it slow and not overload you with gym jargon. On the first day we primarily focus on learning and breaking down the squat pattern, the push up and ring row and some of our core training drills.
By the second workout, we’re ready to introduce some more movements and will do some conditioning (cardio) and get introduced to some of our favorite cool-down mobility drills. This workout focuses on pressing and pulling with the upper body, along with some single leg movements.
On the last workout of the trial, you’re learning and working on the hinge pattern. This can be a tricky one, but is important for everyone to learn. We revisit some movements from the previous two workouts here if needed. This will feel like a bigger workout for most, because we usually give you more to do on the third day as your body is starting to adapt to some new movements.
All in all, the 3-Session Trial is a crash course in all things GAIN. Learn our favorite exercises, get your movement broken down by an experienced coach and learn how to move better, feel more connected and get a plan that’s tailored to what you need and want to accomplish.

Monday Check in
Happy Monday!
Motivation around the gym has been high lately. New people are starting, new goals are forming, and some of you already have your eyes on what to do in 2026.
And 2026 is right around the corner.
If you’re feeling motivated and productive - ride the wave. On the flip side, if you’re not feeling super motivated, that’s okay too.
With just 6 weeks remaining in the year, we all know it’s about to get busy with holidays, traveling, parties and everything else that pulls you out of your routine.
That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t start something new, but if you do, you need to build in some flexibility to navigate these busy times.
The thing to avoid: starting something new and biting off more than you can chew. You’ll fizzle out in early December only to, “start over,” in the New Year.
Keep this James Clear quote in mind:
“When determining the size or complexity of a new habit ask yourself, “What can I stick to—even on my worst day?”
Start small and stay consistent!

Friday Thoughts 105
Welcome to this week’s edition of Friday Thoughts. Let’s get in to it.
Ankles
Mobile ankles are happy ankles. Our ankle joints help us with squatting, running, walking, and of course, going up and down the stairs. If you catch yourself walking down the stairs sideways, or turning your feet out every time you squat - your ankles might need some love. If your ankles are stiff, something else is going to take the bear the brunt like your quads your knees.
Easiest drill to do any time, any where:
vo2
vo2 max, or your maximum oxygen consumption is all over the internet these days. It’s a cool metric and we all suddenly have access to it with our fitness watches, Whoops, etc. However, as Steve explains here, it doesn’t tell the whole picture, and sometimes a simple performance test can be a better indicator of progress.
Ovi
Twenty seasons in insane! Talk about playing the long game. Ovechkin started playing my freshman year of college…
Huh?
This is kind of like when people complain about parking far away and walking to the gym. If you’re going to lift some 45 pound plates on a barbell, loading and unloading it can be a pain, but should never feel so hard you think this is a better option.
That’s it for this week, see you next time!
—Justin Miner
Sore? Do This
Soreness isn’t the best indicator of progress in the gym, but it is something all of us experience. Whether you’re chasing PRs, learning new movements, or getting into strength training for the first time, muscle soreness will show up eventually. We don’t want to chase it, but experienced lifters should know how to manage it.
Get Moving
The best thing you can do for sore muscles is simple: walk.
Movement gets your joints working, increases blood flow, and jump-starts your lymphatic system to clear out the “gunk.” Even if you feel stiff at first, give it five minutes — you’ll almost always feel better.
Roll It (and Breathe)
Your foam roller has a way of telling you when you need it. When an area feels extra tender, that’s a good sign you should spend some time there. What seems unbearable at the start usually gives way after a minute or two.
Gentle pressure plus slow breathing and contract/relax work increases blood flow and helps everything calm down and cooperate.
Mobility Circuit
Set a 10-minute timer and rotate through 3–5 of your favorite mobility drills:
90/90 hip switches
Plank to downward dog
Rotational arm swings
Side Lying Book openers
Squat holds
A few minutes of intentional movement goes a long way toward reducing soreness.
When you’re feeling sore and unsure what to do, move!
—Justin Miner
Slow and STeady
This quote sometimes pops up when I log into TrueCoach:
Excellence is the gradual result of always striving to do better. - Pat Riley
The quick fix crowd doesn’t understand that getting stronger, creating a healthier lifestyle, getting lean or more conditioned takes time. Often, a lot more than you think.
Playing the long game is about staying committed to the process and getting a little bit better here and there. This slow progress can be frustrating, but it’s the way to build long-term commitment and therefore, long-term progress.
Play the long game!
Justin Miner
tempo for strength gains
A sneaky, long-term, and often overlooked way to get really strong is controlling the tempo when lifting.
Tempo is how fast you move. Sometimes we want a fast tempo; speed work, explosive exercises for power development, sprinting and conditioning. When building strength and learning how to move though, nothing beats a slow tempo.
Slowing down makes things feel harder, forces you to breath better and gives your muscles a big dose of strength building stimuli.
There’s also the paradox of strength training to be aware of. The paradox of strength training is that you keep lifting heavier and heavier every week, except there’s one problem, this doesn’t actually work forever - or else we’d all have 1000 pound deadlifts.
Tempo affords us another variable to control. By slowing down, we’re increasing the difficulty of a weight, or a bodyweight movement like a push up, without moving up in weights.
If you’re starting to feel good at a weight, or a certain number of push ups or pull ups, add a tempo to your next bout and feel the difference!
—Justin Miner
Monday Check In
Weekends have been rest days for me lately. There’s just too much to do—kids to play with, leaves to pick up, wood to stack, you name it. Recently, a friend told me he’s been doing the opposite: getting all his workouts in on the weekend because his weekdays are too busy.
He said training on the weekends helps keep him on track—and I get it.
Yesterday around 3 p.m., I was feeling a little grumpy and realized I’d skipped lunch. That’s unusual for me. How did I forget a meal? I usually plan food around training to make sure I’m fueled for a workout. Except this time, I didn’t train.
I feel my best when I’m fueled properly, and that’s easiest during the week. There’s structure—work, routines, training times—and that structure helps me stick to my system. The weekend, on the other hand, is looser. And I think a lot of us feel that.
But five days on and two days off your lifestyle won’t lead to lasting change.
Today, ask yourself: Do you feel better on the weekdays or the weekends? And how can you make one feel more like the other?
For me, it starts with something simple—planning breakfast and lunch on Saturday and Sunday just like I do during the week.
Have a good week!

Friday Thoughts 104
Welcome to this week’s edition of Friday Thoughts, where I share what’s been on my mind and in my feed throughout the week. Enjoy.
November Challenge
This month we’ve got a tough challenge: 2-mile AirBike for time.
This one is a burner. It’ll be over quickly, but will linger with you.
If I’m feeling brave later today I might give it a whirl.
Supplement Routine
Why is it so hard to take supplements consistently? I never seem to be able to stick with it, and it’s something that I have heard others struggle with too—especially with the growing popularity of creatine. I was locked in on my creatine for years, and then I stopped eating my oatmeal bowl as regularly, which is what I always mixed the creatine into.
After experimenting for a while, I’ve nailed my new supplement routine 30/30 days. I’ve settle on a drink in the morning; salt, creatine and fiber, usually mixed up with a Topo Chico. In the evening, after the kids go down, I take magnesium and vitamin D in pill form.
This seems sustainable—so far. I experimented with a drink at night too, after reading magnesium glycinate is most effective in powder form. It tasted terrible though, and pounding down more liquid seemed counterintuitive to the purpose of taking it, which was winding down. I realized even if the powder is more effective than the pill, I’ll be way more likely to stick with the pill, making it the most effective option.
I added the vitamin D on for some basic habit stacking. Taking this pill already? Take this one too.
Race Tee
I discovered my love for classic race tee’s last year at the Wasatch Front 100 Mile Endurance Run. While it might be a huge faux pas on my part, I love wearing the shirt even though I didn’t run the race. It’s has a great design and no sponsors clogging the back. The Great Bay 5k this year had great race tees. Long sleeves with an awesome design, and something not made to wear while running. I knew it was good when Hannah stole it.
Have a good weekend, see you next time!
-Justin Miner
Bored? Congratulations
If your training has felt tedious lately — congratulations.
You’ve made it to a part of the process that most people never reach. You’ve trained long enough, and consistently enough, that you’ve grown bored with your routine.
If you see boredom as a bad thing, I’d like to convince you it’s not. In fact, it’s often a signal that you’re doing the right things.
James Clear said it best:
Now, to be fair, sometimes boredom is a cue for change. But in the gym, the real work happens after the excitement fades. For training to have a lasting impact, you need to stick with.
I know — a gym owner telling you to “never quit the gym” doesn’t sound unbiased. But at least I want you to show up, unlike the big box method of hoping you’ll pay and never show.
If you’ve built a routine, belong to a group that notices when you’re gone, and have stayed consistent for years, boredom is simply part of the process. Get through it, and you keep all the upside you’ve already earned. Chase novelty, and you start over.
Good training is often boring training. Whether your goals are big, small, or vague, at some point your workouts will feel repetitive. That’s how effective programs are written.
So the next time you feel bored, don’t panic. Investigate it. It might just be proof that you’re doing everything right.
—Justin Miner
Gym Lingo: Sustainable Pace
Complete the intervals at a pace that you can repeat each set. In other words, don’t come out too fast and conditioning yourself to get slower and slower.
This is endurance training in a nutshell. And a mistake even experienced athletes frequently make.
I see it in races all the time. On the first couple miles it’s easy to get thrown off your plan when everyone else comes out sprinting. If you get caught up in that, you’ll fizzle out too. If you run your race, you’ll pass all those people in a couple more miles.
Ease in, feel it out, and on your first interval, consider how you’re going to feel on the 8th round.
Avoid the trap and find that sustainable, repeatable pace. Just by doing that, your endurance will improve.
—Justin Miner
October by the Numbers
Welcome to this month’s edition of By The Numbers, where I break down data from my watch and training log to reflect on the past month. I track metrics like average sleep, daily steps, and total workouts. I’ve been doing this monthly for two years now, and it’s proven to be a valuable tool for spotting trends, holding myself accountable, and fine-tuning habits. I highly recommend building a habit like this into your own routine.
Let’s get into it.
STEPS
Total: 357,477
Daily Average: 11,531
This was higher than expected—which was a nice surprise. The day I ran a half marathon, I logged over 30,000 steps, my highest day of the month. The lowest was a Sunday, with fewer than 7,000 steps.
Walking to the bus stop every day has made a noticeable difference in my totals, even though it’s a very short walk. But very short × twice a day × five days a week adds up to a lot of “extra” steps.
SLEEP
Average Score: 78
Average Sleep: 7 hours
Not a bad month in the sleep department. I wrote a lot about August and September—they were rough, and I wasn’t sleeping well. I was feeling its effects.
What’s interesting, and something I just realized while writing this, is that my average sleep score has basically been the same all year.
On one hand, that’s frustrating. I’ve been limiting caffeine, going to bed earlier, and making a real effort to get good rest. However, even though the number hasn’t changed—I know I feel better.
And that’s the dilemma with fitness trackers. I’m sure one day I’ll retire my Garmin and go back to a Casio like a proper old-school runner. But until then, I’m addicted to the data. I want to see what it does—even if that’s seemingly nothing.
Another note: I’ve always thought my watch overestimates “awake time” overnight. I’ve been paying close attention, and I regularly get up to an hour of recorded awake time—even on nights I never wake up and feel completely refreshed. Maybe it’s a limitation of the tracking tech? Because if I sleep for eight hours, my watch might credit me for 6:45 with 75 minutes awake.
Lastly, HRV. My HRV has been solid this month, back near baseline. Maybe this number is a better indicator of recovery, though there are still days when it’s low and I feel great anyway.
Bottom line: use this info to calibrate yourself and audit how you actually feel. Don’t rely on the data to tell you how you feel.
WORKOUTS
Total Workouts: 20
Run/Conditioning: 10
Lift: 10
Nice to see an even split between lifting and running. I raced twice—Vulcan’s Fury Trail Half Marathon and the Great Bay 5K—and all my other runs were easy trail sessions, 45–60 minutes each.
I deadlifted and bench-pressed most weeks, took on the GAIN October Challenge (finished 4th place), and got reacquainted with the AirBike.
Thanks for reading along. As always, I encourage you to build a monthly reflection practice like this. It’s one of the simplest ways to keep your health, fitness, and daily habits moving in the right direction.
—Justin Miner
Monday Check In
Was yesterday the longest day ever, or is it just me?
Falling back the clocks is always strange. On one hand, it’s only an hour—how sensitive can we really be? But on the other, that single hour can throw off your body’s entire rhythm. By 7:00 p.m. last night, I was ready for bed.
My sleep score, HRV, and resting heart rate stayed normal, but I’ll be keeping an eye on them this week to see if anything shifts.
Have a great start to the week, I’ll see you in the gym!
—Justin Miner
Friday Thoughts 103
thief of joy
Is comparison really the thief of joy?
A couple people mentioned this week that they were surprised to hear me comparing myself to my past self — especially since I’ve told them not to do that over the years. Fair point.
If you did the Fast Mile Project this summer, you probably remember me saying not to compare your current self to your lifetime mile PR — especially if that came 15 or 20 years ago, when you were in middle school and running on pure adrenaline and youth.
Back in 2019, I was at my all-time highest running volume. I was fit, light, and hit a few PRs — including the mile and 5K. Since then, I’ve focused more on getting stronger, building muscle, and maintaining enough cardiovascular fitness to hang on when needed.
In 2024, I ramped the running back up. I did some cool stuff — like pacing 50 miles at Wasatch — but I never felt my fittest or fastest. I had the volume, but not the confidence. My ability to put the hammer down was fading.
Fast-forward to summer 2025 and the Fast Mile Project. I removed the pressure and told myself: just train, and see if you can run a fast mile again. My stretch goal was to beat my old time but I didn’t know if it was realistic. I’m heavier, older, busier, and, honestly, not as willing to suffer as I used to be.
Still, after seven weeks of focused training, I ran a 5:30.5 mile — matching my all-time best.
And that’s when the 5K chatter started.
Can I go sub-20? If I can run a mile that fast, shouldn’t I be able to? What about doing it at 100 kilos?
So — should you compare yourself to your former self?
Yes, absolutely. But do it wisely.
Have the right parameters and metrics.
Daydreaming about something you used to do isn’t the same as pursuing a goal grounded in data, context, and discipline.
I had numbers. I had a realistic time frame. I had years of consistent training behind me with no injuries. And I have the discipline to see it through.
Comparison can help us gauge progress — but only if we’re honest about where we are now.
If you’re going to compare yourself to a younger version of you, make sure you’re using the right data, setting realistic expectations, and preparing yourself for results you might not love.
N = 1
One of the best classes I took in college was Research Methods. It taught us how to conduct formal scientific research and culminated in a published study on the post-activation potentiation of a heavy sled push paired with a sprint. Pretty cool stuff.
One of the main takeaways from that class was the importance of having a high number of participants — at least 25. The idea is simple: the more subjects you have, the more data you can analyze to see how your intervention truly affects people. In research, n stands for the number of participants. In that study, n = 25.
My running example above, however, was an n = 1. I was the only participant in the experiment. And while my research methods professor would probably say that’s not enough to draw any statistically significant conclusions, I’d argue that an n = 1 experiment is one of the best ways to improve your health and fitness.
It’s a personal experiment — where you become both the researcher and the subject — and you get to test a hypothesis on yourself.
How to Run an N = 1 Experiment
Define the question or hypothesis.
Example: “Does taking magnesium glycinate before bed improve my sleep quality?”Set a measurable outcome.
Sleep score, resting HR, HRV, time awake, or subjective energy — anything quantifiable.Control the variables.
Keep other factors like caffeine, bedtime, and workouts as consistent as possible.Run a baseline period.
Track your metric for 1–2 weeks without the intervention.Add the variable.
Introduce magnesium and continue tracking under the same conditions.Compare.
Look for consistent changes relative to baseline — ideally using averages, not single days.Repeat or remove.
Remove the variable and see if things return to baseline. That’s your confirmation.
You don’t need a lab coat or a research grant to learn from your own data.
All you need is curiosity, consistency, and a willingness to experiment on yourself.
Check Engine Light
If the topics above are to your fancy, listen to this podcast, The Ready State Podcast with Rob Wilson.
I met Rob at a breath work seminar in 2018 at his gym in Virginia Beach. Andrew Huberman was there—pre podcast and fame—as a participant, and did a short post-seminar presentation for anyone who wanted to hang out. It was pretty cool. Anyway, the Starretts just had Rob Wilson on their podcast, and they talk about his coaching and his new book the Check Engine Light.
It’s a great chat about getting in tune with your own body, problem solving and feeling good. There’s a good discussion about HRV scores, something that’s been a bit of a hot topic at the gym lately.

Your Next Position
I was recently flipping through my copy of The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook recently. It’s full of different techniques to self-mobilize your soft tissue, something we do at the gym everyday with foam rollers, lacrosse balls and the like. It’s an old book, so it’s a little dated, but there are some valuable takeaways nonetheless.
I was flipping through and this passage caught my eye:
“Staying in any position too long, even a comfortable position, is hazardous to muscles. A static position favors the formation of trigger points because it hampers circulation. Muscles need a certain amount of contracting and relaxing to stay healthy. Many jobs are static by nature, particularly anything done sitting at a desk. Unfortunately, sedentary or inactive work gives you the impression that your work is easy, that you’re not straining anything. On the contrary, you might be well under a great deal of subtle physical stain and not recognize it.”
Remember, posture is just a word or what position you’re in, and your best position is your next position, because the more you can move, the better. Avoid static positions and try to move frequently. Take breaks and instead of searching for the most perfect set up, try a variety of positions throughout the day to expose your tissues to many different stimulus.

The Perfect Program
As an exercise science major, a majority of my classes were focused on program design and exercise selection.
How could you maximize perform outcomes by controlling the variables you could control. I loved it.
We learned about what exercises paired with each and other and which pairings to avoid, how to order exercises, proper rest period timing and building macro and microcycles. Using that knowledge and a little bit of creativity, you can create a training program. It was really clear to me; if you weren’t strictly following a perfectly designed training program, you were just wasting time in the gym.
At the time I was playing hockey and I trained to get better on the ice. One summer, I became obsessed with having the perfect program, it killed all of my progress.
If I missed a day or two, I would throw away a whole week to start fresh on Monday. Eventually, this led to program hopping - I’m not making progress on this plan, I’ll create a new one! And the cycle would start over. Eventually I stopped trying at all.
Of course, it wasn’t the plan’s fault. It was my inability to stick with it. Or rather, my inability to get back on the horse. To just keep going with pretty good rather than thinking I needed perfection.
That summer was crazy. I was working full time as an ice truck driver, taking a college class, interning at a gym and training for the upcoming hockey season.
Trying to be perfect halted any progress I could have made. Instead of starting the program over and over again, I should have just kept going, even with some missed days. Sure, the plan wouldn’t be perfect or ideal, but the benefits of doing something far outweigh what you get with nothing.

Great Bay 5k Recap
I didn’t want to do this race. I spent all day Friday thinking of excuses, and Saturday morning was no different. My goal was to run under 20 minutes, and that pressure made the idea of racing feel more stressful than fun. I procrastinated, delayed, and finally—after eating my usual breakfast sandwich—I got out the door.
With a short race like a 5K and a cold morning in the 40s, the warm-up is crucial. Luckily, I parked far away. I opted for short sleeves (the right call) and wore gloves for the warm-up. For the record—short sleeves and gloves is an elite running combo.
At the start line, I knew what I needed: a 6:25/mile average to break 20 minutes. If I executed well, each mile would get just a touch faster. The field was big, so I focused on running my own race. When we hit the 1-mile marker, I rounded a corner and saw the clock—6:26. Perfect.
That first mile felt smooth, and now it was just about hanging on. I tried to pick things up slightly for mile two. Whenever my form started to fall apart, I zeroed in on cadence and mechanical efficiency. Just after mile two comes a small climb before the long downhill finish. I worked that hill, made a few passes, and then opened up the stride coming down to the finish.
Final time: 19:42.
This year has been a quiet battle with my 2019 self—am I fitter now or then? Better at training? Stronger, even with more life on my plate? After running a 5:30 mile and now a 19:42 5K, I can confidently say: it’s working.
Enjoy some of the data below, and here’s to no more races on the calendar this year.

Monday Check In
I’m sure you’re keeping track, today marks 300 days into year. Just 65 days left until we’re in 2026.
That means there’s just 9 more Monday Check Ins, 9 more chances to get a week started off on the right foot.
Of course you’ll have plenty of chances to do that in 2026, too. To me, the end of the year is motivating. A chance to carry some momentum, habits and routines into the New Year.
Whether you’re day dreaming about the New Year, or trying to get your stuff together for this upcoming week—be sure to take a few minutes and get yourself organized. What are your goals this week? What do you need to get done? Are your prioritizing time for yourself?
See you in the gym!
