    EP44, Time Blocking That Works

    Send us a question here! Ever end a week feeling like you were busy the whole time but couldn't point to what you actually moved forward? That's not a discipline problem. That's a design problem. In this episode of Unstoppable by Design, Matt breaks down time blocking — one of the most practical tools for taking back control of your week without overhauling your whole life. In this episode, we deep dive into: The To-Do List Trap: Why reacting to whatever feels urgent is killing your productivity, and the one shift that separates people who control their week from people their week happens to.What Time Blocking Is NOT: It's not a rigid minute-by-minute schedule, it's not a color-coded 15-category system, and it's not just for people with "that kind of job." If you've quit on this before, this is why.Your Time Is a Budget: Why treating your hours like a blank check guarantees they'll run out before the things that matter ever get done.Deep Work vs. Shallow Work vs. Maintenance: The three categories most people mix together all day, and how separating them unlocks more output without more hours.The 6-Step Execution Framework: From locking in your non-negotiables to batching tasks, protecting your blocks, and the weekly reset habit that makes the whole system run.The One Tool You Already Have: No new apps required. Start with what's already on your phone and build from there.Unstoppable Challenge: Before your week starts, block three things on your calendar. One focused work session. One thing you've been putting off. One thing that's just for you. Treat all three like an appointment you wouldn't cancel.

    EP43, How Fitness Programming Works

    Send us a question here! Ever wondered what actually goes into the workouts on the whiteboard? In this episode of Unstoppable by Design, Matt Terry sits down with Head Coach Lis Rosencrum to answer a listener's question: How is programming created? From the very first consult to mid-cycle adjustments on the fly, Lis pulls back the curtain on what separates thoughtful coaching from cookie-cutter plans. In this episode, we deep dive into: The First Question That Matters Most: Why Lis leads every consult by finding out what you think you want — and how that shapes everything she writes.Programming Around Injuries & Life: How corrective exercise layered with outside providers (PTs, orthopedists) keeps you moving forward instead of sitting out."Real Grown-Ups" vs. Collegiate Athletes: Why your goals are just as valid as a D1 athlete's — and why the most effective program is the one you'll actually do.Macro, Meso & Micro Cycles Explained: What 12-week and 6–8 week training blocks look like at Juggernaut, including how Murph prep and running progressions are built around New Hampshire's daylight window.The PVC Pipe Truth: Why drilling unweighted positions builds the foundation for heavier, safer lifts — and why that "light" PVC is secretly devious.Training Age & Expectations: Why a beginner can PR their deadlift by 140 lbs while a veteran should celebrate a 5-lb gain — and neither result is wrong.Unstoppable Challenge: Next time you catch yourself reaching for your phone to doom scroll, put it down and move for 5 minutes instead. Walk, do push-ups, do burpees — literally anything. Support the Show & Win! 🎁 UBC RAFFLE: For just $3/month, you're entered into our monthly raffles.

    EP41, How To Eat For Progress Without Perfection

    Send us a question here! Stop letting "food guilt" stall your results. In this episode of Unstoppable by Design, Matt is joined by Juggernaut’s Head Nutrition Coach, Emily Hyde, to break down why the quest for a "perfect" diet often leads to a stress-filled yo-yo cycle that actually prevents you from building muscle. We dive deep into the recent goal reviews from our members to answer your most burning questions about weight fluctuations, hormonal changes, and how to eat for longevity without spending six hours in the kitchen. In this episode, we discuss: The Guilt Cycle: How stress and cortisol (the stress hormone) keep your body in a "catabolic" state of breakdown rather than recovery.The 5-Pound Scale Swing: Why a weekly 5–8 lb weight fluctuation is almost never "real fat" and what is actually happening with water retention and inflammation.Menopause & Muscle: The biological shift in estrogen and why prioritizing Muscle Protein Synthesis (MPS) is non-negotiable as you age.The Sleep-Sugar Connection: Why "underfueling" during the day leads to 3:00 AM wake-ups and how a small "desserty" carb snack can actually help you sleep better.The 1% Kitchen Hack: Realistic meal prep strategies (hello, Crockpots!) that don't skyrocket your grocery bill.Metabolic Health: How to move beyond guessing and use labs to see how your body is truly handling energy.Support & Giveaways 🎁 UBC RAFFLE: Want to win a seat in the Ultimate Bootcamp Challenge (starts April 25th)?
