You and I are going to drink a lot of coffee together. Like, borderline dangerous amounts of coffee.
So, first things first. Pour yourself a mug and I’ll introduce myself real quick.
My name’s Jordan - but everyone calls me “J” - and I’m a 27th degree black belt in chugging coffee.
I’m also strength & nutrition coach, I hold several powerlifting world records, and I’ve been fortunate enough to have my writing featured in a variety of outlets like CNN, the Huffington Post, and Schwarzenegger.com.
But listen.
This channel isn’t for fame, publicity, cash, props, fist bumps, likes, pings, pows or whatever else there is.
It’s a place where you and I can chat.
I’ll never sugar coat, lie, or beat around the bush. I’ll tell you everything exactly as I see it. Some stuff you might like. Others you might not.
And that’s totally cool.
Either way, my goal here is to create a discussion. A place where you and I can get together, exchange ideas, and motivate each other to be better every day.
Like I said, we’re gonna drink a lot of coffee together - borderline dangerous amounts - but I’m excited. Because there aren’t too many online communities in which the sole purpose is to inspire and motivate one another.
And that’s exactly what you and I are going to do here.
To your success,
-J

Nice, watched this in bed on IG this morning and kept nodding approvingly :D
#sortinghatsize
Nice i watched this in bed too tho before sleep time😖
With a cup of nice coffee and dark chocolate 😂
I liked your comment so much and asked my wife to press the like button
Istggggg
For me personally, the mindset change happened when I accepted that exercise is the celebration of the movement that my body can do rather than a punishment. #sortinghatsquad
Love this Shannon!
Who else is glad that Jordan is back on his UA-cam grind? #sortinghatsquad
Love this! Pain from discipline itself vs. pain from the results of lack of discipline.
I'm working on a video about how I stay motivated and I just came across this. I gotta say I LOVE the idea you propose, "willfully suffering vs unwillfully suffering". What a great way to think about it.
"Just because it's suffering, doesn't mean you shouldn't do it." - Well said, Jordan. Love your words. Getting out of my warm, comfy bed in the morning is SO hard to do, but it's so dang worth it. #sortinghatsquad
Omg nearly cried. The best fucking thing I have seen today. This hit so hard, being I decided to get up at 5:30am to excersise and not wanting to. But made the conscious choice to do it. And felt great 👍. This helps so much for most of us that have been working out for years trying to reach our goals. Thank you for being the biggest fitness blessing to us. And of course Ms Susan too❤
I find you to be so refreshing, honest, truthful, direct, to the point, caring and “non gimmicky”. I love it, “willful suffering”. Make the choice now! Thank You J!
#sortinghatsquad
I LOVE this concept. Thank you for always being so real, Jordan. You are SO GOOD at putting things into words that resonate with me. #sortinghatsquad forever!
For me the way I learned to stay motivated for everything- working out, learning more, talk to more people, get out of my comfort zone- is to start by building up small good habits. So for example, start making your bed in the morning, start tidying up your apartment or bedroom everyday, brush your teeth twice a day (I used to not do this, don’t feel ashamed just try to fix it) and then work your way up to bigger healthy habits like try to get at least 20 minutes of walking in every day or try to spend at least 15 minutes a day just reflecting on yourself and cooling down (I do this while driving or commuting). I mean it sounds cheesy and cliché but truly I was antisocial, fat and lazy for a lot of my teen years and even in college. This method of forming simple healthy habits truly did help me so much.
Oh also it’s probably
Important that you recognize all of the good things you do. Especially so for people who struggle with confidence- whenever you complete a task you should stop and tell yourself “look what I did. I just worked out and this is good for me” or “I just sat down and learned how to file taxes today. I put in work and I was successful.” Again it’s super corny but damn does it boost confidence
I needed to hear this today. Thank you, Jordan. I have been lurking around for a good while, I have lost some weight, gained some back and lost some more, but I have never really done anything to improve my fitness, as in I have never exercised willingly. I have never experienced the "endorphin rush" from exercise, I have just always hated exercising. I hate being sweaty, I hate sore muscles, I hate being tired, and I hate to organize time for exercising when I'm already busy. But I also hate that I get winded when walking uphill, I hate that I can't keep up with other people, and I hate the fact that I have skip social events because I know I'm not fit enough to participate, let alone enjoy it. And after carefully thinking this through, I have decided that I would much rather choose to suffer for less than an hour a few times a week than constantly be thinking about and even fearing moments that could force me to accept the fact that I'm just not fit enough to do basic, everyday things for maybe the rest of my life. And I'm young, I really don't want to be in this situation for the rest of my life. So I'm making a change. But how, that I don't know yet. #sortinghatsquad
You got this! It's definitely a challenge but you're not alone! What an amazing decision you made! YOU GOT THIS!!! :D
Your comment is very long but i ended up reading all n i got myself so motivated specially with when you said i would rather suffer for 1 our then 24 hours i mean this is so true every time we think about wish I would be fit so I would meet more people go to social events feel more confident play on the ground more run marathons or just look good buy good clothes that suit on me this is all suffering when we are only wishing not be able to do that so rather thinking like this 24/7 n suffering will suffer for 1 hour n make the rest 23 hours feeling good about that you did it
I’m sitting here, telling myself I need to workout today. But I didn’t have the motivation to do so. A few minutes later I receive your text with a link to this video. Message received. #sortinghatsquad
Jordan, it’s like you know what’s going on in my head! This video is the kick up the backside I needed. Kudos to you for caring, thank you 🙏. #SortingHatSquad
Do things that work for you. You don’t always have to be EXTREME just consistent. Precovid I lost 50 lbs, I gained a lot of it back from being stuck at home and depressed. I got my head in the game again and adapted to the situation around me. I invested in home equipment by putting money away over a few months and even doing home workouts before getting the equipment. Since I wfh, I dress in my workout clothes so I don’t feel the drag of having to changing into them after work. I used to get up at 6am to go to the gym before covid. But honestly, nowadays I don’t feel like getting up that early. I need my sleep after this year of having so much happen. Now I workout 5x a week around 7-8 pm in my basement. These things work for ME. These changes have made it easier for me to stay disciplined when I feel unmotivated. Come up with ways that help YOU. #sortinghatsquad
Thank you for this comment. I hope you are thriving and happy.
You gotta find something you love to do is so true 💕 Hated exercise but started taking Zumba classes that I loved, then months later I was finally motivated to start going to the gym & I ended up loving it :)
Thank you for sharing this since I am not on Instagram. Willful vs unwillful suffering is the mindset I need right now. I feel like it’s so much work to get food and exercise on track but this shift in thinking helps show it’s worth it. I always felt guilty for not loving it and not having that incredible boost of energy after. Thanks Jordan! You’re incredible. #sortinghatsquad
Thank you! I really needed this. Willful suffering will always be in the back of my head from now on!
this video is exactly what i needed. This was something that I really needed to hear. I understand it now and i finally feel motivated enough to do something with myself, thank you for that
I love listening to your podcasts and your videos, you truly have so much empathy for others that I don’t think a lot of other coaches have #sortinghatsquad
I’m definitely one of those people who doesn’t like to “workout” - I really enjoyed this video! #sortinghatsquad
I sent you a message on IG, but you haven't seen it. Just wanted to say thank you. This video has changed my life. Five minutes and I'm in tears with my mind kind of blown. You spoke to the inner me that has been struggling for what feels like forever with over 100lbs to lose. I've felt alone and sad and not sure what to do or how to start. You've just changed my life. Thank you. So much.
Love this! Much needed and a very realistic POV about motivation that I struggle with. Was going to cancel my workout class today, but after watching this I’m still going! #sortinghatsquad
NEEDED THIS!!!!! 🎉
I’d love to try out the inner circle! Thanks for everything you do!! #sortinghatsquad
I missed you in youtube lately, Jordan. So I went ahead and started listening to all of your podcasts from the very first one published in February 2018. They are incredibly amazing. We love you man👏👏👏 #sortinghatsquad
So excited to see more videos on UA-cam! Love your ethos and realistic and optimistic advice. #sortinghatsquad
Such an awesome message you’re putting out there. When I’ve found myself in a rut over the last year, I’ve found that switching gears and trying something new makes the “suffering” more sufferable. This year I’ve gotten into kettlebell training and I absolutely love it, but I realize it might not always be that way. Thanks again for the brain food. #sortinghatsquad
I've been non-stop on your podcast for weeks now. Thanks J you're a gem. #sortinghatsquad
REAL TALK!!!!!!!!!! Thanks Jordan
Once again, dropping the TRUTH like no other!!!
Happy New Year Jordan! Great info as usual, thanks for sharing😊

Jordan-I love this explanation!!! It’s taken me so long to get the mindset of not killing myself in workouts 7 days a week for 2 hours is ok. Recognizing that some workouts are just good for me is the key to getting me to do them! Thank you!! #sortinghatsquad

Definitely needed to see this Jordan! #SortingHatSquad
I am sooooooo happy you are back on UA-cam!!!! #sortinghatsquad
You r the most practical coach I have seen. Thanks for sharing your thoughts 🙏
Needed this reminder. Thanks Jordan! #sortinghatsquad
So, so good and so much truth! Thanks for always breaking it down honestly and simply. #SortingHatSquad
Thank you, I needed to hear this. We do things we don't really like doing all the time because we know we will benefit later. Knowing that exercise is one of those hated things I just do to feel better in the longterm makes it a bit easier to get through it. At least then I don't beat myself up for still not loving it and for wondering what the hell is wrong with me for still not loving it.
Love the vids!
J, I really needed to hear this! Brilliant as always :) #sortinghatsquad
This is awesome! Thanks!
Definitely need this advice. Having the idea of how the future will look like gives the ultimate purpose and motivation to start exercise now!! #sortinghatsquad
Jordan- your words of wisdom resonate every time! A little bit of suffering is always worth it! #sortinghatsquad
Love your content! Down 50lbs since I found you almost 2 yrs ago! Slow and steady but a love the new lifestyle! #sortinghatsquad
as someone who truly LOVES to exercise, i find during the colder winter months my motivation/drive just isn't the same and somedays i really have to use the 'just 5 minutes' mindset to get myself off the couch!
thanks for the perf reminder, positively love all you do
You gave me some words I needed to hear today. Thanks man.
#sortinghadsquad
Wanted to be a part of inner circle for tooo long. You are just awesome
#sortinghatsquad
I've been thinking about this so much since your last post. Not about exercise but about food. Thank you! #sortinghatsquad
Great video, I always thought finding what you enjoyed was the way to go. Definitely great seeing a different perspective. #SortingHatSquad
I needed this !
#sortinghatsquad really like the breakdown of willful vs unwillful suffering. It's like putting your own spin on the whole instant gratification vs long term gratification concept and applying it to health/exercise
Thanks for all you do! I really needed this. I have been struggling to workout. #sortinghatsquad
I love this and loving the Inner Circle!! #sortinghatsquad
I felt that bro thank you 🙏🏾
Love this and your other video about how actions come before motivation. Love them all! #sortinghatsquad
Everything you say always makes sense and clicks with me! You are awesome! #sortinghatsquad

Awesomely real as always Jordan - we need real to get to our goals! #sortinghatsquad
I really needed to hear this! I’ve been struggling with finding the motivation to get back into the gym again because I’ve been dealing with fatigue and joint pain. Just need to get my body moving and get to a healthier me! #sortinghatsquad
