This episode dives into "Gotcha Leverage."

This is where others’ attempts to catch you failing can actually keep you accountable and strengthen your discipline. By setting your ego aside, you allow others to displace your need for willpower as they try to get a "gotcha!" moment on you.

I also share lessons from a 1,000 push-up challenge, how breaking big goals into smaller steps works, and announce the next Allegiant Excellence Challenge to end the 2024 year and start the 2025 year off with some momentum!

In this episode, I reintroduced the Blade System, a framework I designed for getting your shit in orde. If you're new here or missed earlier episodes, the Blade System is a free, four-part framework that challenges you to remove the bad shit (Purge), include the good shit (Oath), do scary shit (Crucible), and focus on small shit (Rigor). It’s inspired by systems like the Power List by Andy Frisella as well as Darren Hardy's Vice Fast and is fully customizable to your goals.

The program operates on integrity—you set your own tasks and stick to them for 30 days. If you miss even one day, you restart. This system is about holding yourself accountable, overcoming obstacles, and continuously leveling up. Whether it’s giving up distractions, introducing positive habits, or facing fears, you’ll build resilience and discipline that extend into all areas of life.

I also announced the podcast's first weekly challenge: complete 1,000 pushups by December 21st. Break it up however you want, but the goal is to push yourself and develop consistency. Post your progress, tag me on Instagram, and let's kick some ass and grow.

Bryson rebranded this podcast after combining two previous shows. This platform is an ambitious space for men focused on self-improvement, fitness transformation, and building mental resilience. The goal is to help men master discipline, grow muscle, and elevate their lives.

Bryson introduces The Blade System idea, a framework he built to create lasting results. It focuses on four key components for personal transformation.

• Building confidence and habits.
• Leading yourself and others.
• Adapting to challenges.
• Disciplining your actions and mindset.
• Enduring tough times to build grit and resilience.

He tells a story of a birthday card in an empty, unfurnished apartment that became Bryson’s wake-up call. The echo of the card mirrored the emptiness of his life, literally. That moment made him realize he was spiraling, stuck in a cycle of nightly drinking, video games, and self-doubt. From there, he vowed to rebuild himself and his future.

Within a year, Bryson completely transformed his life. At 26, he replaced the victim mindset with intentional action and laser-focused discipline. At 27, he now runs a men’s fitness coaching business focused on skinny guys (who Bryson used to be) and is living proof of what’s possible with hard work and commitment.

Bryson is on a mission to help underserved men—those who feel unseen or stuck in their current reality. He knows what it’s like to be the skinny guy with zero confidence and no plan. This podcast is for men who feel overlooked but are ready to take action and change and ultimately regain control of their life and get their shit together.

Authenticity is everything for Bryson. His content is raw and unfiltered, showing the flaws and mistakes that are part of real growth. He believes in practicing what he preaches and leading by example, no matter how messy the journey might look. There is always a learning opportunity in every endeavor and he emphasizes the importance of this.
