GROWTH doesn’t come from comfort.
It comes from what you choose to do when things get hard.

THE TRUTH ABOUT WHY YOU'RE STUCK.

You don't need a better diet plan. You don't need more willpower. You don't need another fancy program.

You need to stop being who you've always been. And that terrifies you.

Because becoming someone different means renegotiating every relationship, every dynamic, and every identity you've built your life around.

Your friends won't recognize you. Your family might resent the change. You won't fit in the same spaces anymore.

That's not a fitness problem. That's an identity problem.

And you're too scared to admit it.

Most people stay stuck because they'd rather fail at staying the same than risk succeeding at becoming someone new.

It's time to stop hiding. It's time for the work.

That’s The Mariolis Method.

I don't listen to your excuses. I listen to YOU!

Your doctor knows about your condition.
Your trainer knows about exercise.
Your nutritionist knows about food.
Your healer, naturopath, or tarot card reader knows the noise in your head.

BUT, none of them know YOU.

They all know a lot about a little bit of you. Not one of them knows the whole human.

Stop looking for the easy way out. Stop looking for answers in little boxes. Real transformation happens when someone finally asks the real questions and helps you figure out who you actually are and what you genuinely need.

No more pointing fingers. No more excuses. Just the work.

That’s The Mariolis Method.

EFFORT ... doesn't lie!

There are two types of people entering 2026: Resolutionists and Builders

Resolutionists negotiate with themselves. They wait for 'the right vibe' or a burst of motivation. They loudly and annoyingly announce their delusional intentions because the applause feels so much better than the actual work.

Builders don't wait. Builders design their lives around disciplined behavior. They execute when it’s boring. They show up when it’s lonely. They understand that the world doesn’t improve through hope; it improves because a small group of people refuse to live distracted, half-committed lives.

They plan, they commit, they engage!

The future doesn’t belong to the Resolutionists. It belongs to the people who actually lay the bricks.

I’ve been turning Resolutionists into Builders for over 40 years.
If you’re proud to be a Resolutionist… enjoy the life that produces.

If you're ready to build, let's talk.

If your lat pulldown looks like a Cirque du Soleil audition, please stop.

Every week I see another influencer demonstrating the “correct” way to do a lat pulldown.

And every week, it looks like:

A yoga pose

A chiropractic adjustment

A mating ritual

Or all three at once

Here’s the truth:

If you need a 3‑minute performance to explain how to pull a bar down…

You’re not teaching technique.
You’re teaching confusion.

Real coaching is simple:

Pull the bar down

Feel your lats

Don’t look like you’re trying to start a lawn mower

That’s it.
No theatrics.
No spiritual awakening.
No Cirque du Soleil contract required.

How to become a certified 'Resolutionist' in 6 easy steps:

The Proclamation: Announce 'This year is different' to anyone who will listen.

The Haul: Spend $400 on supplements and gear you don’t know how to use.

The Spam: Post 14 'Day 1' gym selfies.

The Glitch: Miss one session. Then two.

The Pivot: Turn your 'excuse' into a 'valid reason.' (Bonus points for using the word 'journey').

The Ghost: Disappear entirely until next December.

Hit the 'Repeat Annually' button. 🔁

This isn’t motivation.
It’s ritualized self-deception.

If you're tired of the loop, come back Friday. We’re talking to the Builders.

The Rise of the 'Resolutionist'

We now have three great movements in human history:

The Evolutionists.
The Revolutionists.
…and now,
The Resolutionists.

(Read to the voice of Sir David Attenborough)

January 1st marks the annual migration of the 'Resolutionist'.

You’ll spot them by their pristine, uncreased sneakers and the sudden, aggressive influx of kale in their digital feeds. It’s a fascinating secular ritual: they gather annually in gym lobbies, make loud declarations of a "New Me," and donate several hundred dollars to a local fitness club (which they will never visit again after January 22nd).

The Resolutionist doesn't want change; they want the feeling of intending to change. It’s not a lifestyle—it’s a 31-day performance piece.

Status: Identity currently under construction.
Likelihood of collapse: 98% by February.

Stay tuned. Tomorrow, we dissect the anatomy of the delusion.

Most Don’t Want a new year. They Want a NEW LIFE.

The ball drops.
Fireworks explode.
We kiss strangers, clink glasses, scream “Happy New Year!” into the night.

And then?

January 1st dawns, and nothing inside us has changed.

Same fears.
Same excuses.
Same quiet disappointments we drown in noise for one night.

All that light, all that sound — just a distraction from the truth:

Most of us don’t want a new year.
We want a new life.

But we’re unwilling to do the brutal, lonely work of becoming someone different.

So we party harder, wish louder, post brighter.
Anything to avoid the mirror.

Enjoy the fireworks.
They’re beautiful.
Just know they burn out fast.

And when the sky goes dark again…
you’re still you.

Here’s to the rare few who choose the harder light —
the one that comes from within.
You will have a great 2026.

The rest?
See you at next year’s distraction. 🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾

MERRY CHRISTMAS to the 1%.

Not the richest. Not the luckiest. The 1% who actually do the work.

After 40 years of coaching, I’ve learned one thing: I don’t select the 1%. They select themselves. They’re the ones who show up when motivation disappears—the ones who have been with me for 10+ years because they refused to quit.

Here is the secret the 99% don't get: The 1% aren't miserable monks. Because they built a foundation of consistent work all year, they can actually enjoy the Christmas feast. They drink the wine and eat the dessert without guilt or panic—because their bodies can handle it.

The 99%? They indulge the same way, but without the foundation.

By January, they’ll play the victim. They’ll blame genetics, "secret pills," or a lack of time. But the 1% don't have better luck—they just have better habits. They decided long ago that "hard" isn't a reason to quit.

You don’t become the 1% and then do the work. The work is what makes you the 1%.

To my 1%—past, present, and future: Thank you for doing the unglamorous, boring, consistent work. You’ve earned this holiday.

To the 99%: The door is always open. But leave the excuses at the door. 2026 is waiting.

Keep being an idiot. It's making them rich.

I've been in the trenches for 40 years, and frankly, I'm disgusted.

I'm tired of being polite while I watch you get robbed in broad daylight by charlatans, influencers, and "experts" who couldn't tell you the first thing about actual human physiology.

You want the truth? Most of you are too lazy to handle it. You'd rather swallow a lie than lift a finger.

I see it every day. I show people peer-reviewed research. I show them real-world results—Type 2 Diabetes put into remission. My clients get results because they do the work.

But the moment an influencer promotes a "Magic Pill" or a doctor offers Ozempic, you're gone.

Why? Because Ozempic is easier. Because believing a 20-year-old on TikTok is easier than doing the research I put in front of you. You don't want health. You want a shortcut that doesn't exist.
You're being played.

I see you buying WPI that's "fortified" with garbage. You think 5mg of Vitamin C is going to stop the flu? You think a "drizzle" of potassium and Magnesium Oxide—which is basically a cheap laxative—makes your protein "superior"?

It's called "fairy dusting." They put a microscopic amount of an ingredient in the tub so they can put it on the label and charge you a 300% markup.

And you fall for it. Every. Single. Time.

If I had no soul, I'd be retired on a yacht by now.

I'd sell you a "Quantum Teleportation Crystal."

I'd tell you to sleep with it under your pillow and I'll "teleport" the results of my 2-hour workout into your body while you dream.

The sad part? Half of you would buy it. You'd eat clean just to "keep the crystals 'signal' clear," lose 5kg, and then tell your friends the "Magic Rock" worked.

That's how gullible you've become.

Unfortunately for me, and fortunately for you, I have the ethics they don't have. That's why I haven't retired on a Greek island yet.

I'm the one telling you the truth that doesn't sell: There is no magic pill. There is no shortcut.

If it's not on this list, you're just buying expensive urine:

Creatine (just creatine—not "advanced formulas")
Magnesium (glycinate or citrate—NOT oxide)
Vitamin D3
Omega-3 (actual EPA/DHA content)
Protein powder (WPI or WPC—nothing else needed)
Zinc (if you're actually deficient)
B12 (if you're vegan or elderly)

That's it. Everything else is marketing.

Go ahead. Keep looking for the easy way out. Keep buying the "fortified" garbage and the Ozempic dreams.

But don't come to me wondering why you're still broken when the "magic" wears off.

I'm looking for the 1% who are ready to stop being victims.

The others? Well... good luck with it.

But if you really are interested in that 'crystal,' let me know. There's a Christmas special at the moment. Guaranteed to get results.
