A New Challenge

I started the Gain Blog in March 2018. I was scared of writing and did it as a way to push myself to improve my communication skills. I wanted to get better at transcribing my thoughts and experiences in the fitness industry and demystify strength and conditioning.

I believe that strength and conditioning and the lessons it provides is a key to a long and healthy life. For nearly two years, I've consistently published the blog but haven't shared it nearly enough. As a way to continue the evolution of the blog, to push myself further and continue to spread the message, this account (@justinminergain on Instagram) will now be (mostly) dedicated to the Gain Blog as a way to share it to more people and a new audience.

Personal evolution wasn't the only momentum that sparked this. Everything changed in 2020 and more people than ever realized they needed take care of themselves. For the past decade the view of fitness has been shifting. It's being recognized as preventative medicine, and a necessity for a fun, adventurous lifestyle.

This year taught me that I hold valuable information. I know to to make people move better, gain confidence and feel ready to take on the world. As a father, a husband, business owner and home owner I know how hard it can be to get everything done. But I've found a way. A way through strength and conditioning and through maintaining a certain lifestyle that grants me freedom.

Look for strength training tips, how to videos, post on habits and discipline, endurance training, and perspectives from 10 years as a coach. If you're interested in what's going on in my training, be sure to follow along @gain_endurance.

If you’re a regular blog reader from Facebook, nothing is changing, you’ll still get the daily links via Facebook. You’ll now be able to find the posts on Instagram as well. If you’re not following along on Instagram, get involved here.
