The SHOW UP Principles™

The SHOW UP Principles™ are a set of guiding beliefs for building strength, resilience, and confidence in the body—and carrying that strength into life, leadership, and longevity.


These are not steps. They are ways of operating.


S — Strength Is Foundational

  • Strength is not aesthetic—it’s infrastructure

  • Physical strength supports mental resilience, emotional regulation, and long-term health

  • Training should prepare you for life demands, not just workouts
    Principle: When you build strength in the body, everything else gets easier

H — Health Is a Daily Practice

  • Health isn’t a phase—it’s a rhythm

  • Small, consistent behaviors matter more than extremes

  • Health should support your season, not fight it
    Principle: Sustainable health beats short-term intensity every time

O — Opportunity Lives in Discomfort

  • Growth requires friction

  • Discomfort is information, not failure

  • Strength training becomes a safe place to practice hard things
    Principle: The willingness to be uncomfortable expands what’s possible

W — Wellness Requires Systems

  • Motivation fades. Systems stay

  • Structure creates freedom and consistency

  • Simple routines remove decision fatigue
    Principle: When wellness has structure, life has margin

U — Unshakeable Confidence

  • Showing up consistently strengthens trust in yourself

  • Belief comes from repeated proof, not just affirmation

  • Strength is earned through effort and consistency

  • Confidence fuels decision-making, leadership, and resilience

    Principle: When your confidence is unshakeable, you move through life with clarity, courage, and purpose.

P — Presence Is Performance

  • How you show up matters

  • Posture, breath, and awareness affect how you lead and live

  • Strength is expressed in how you carry yourself through life
    Principle: The strongest people move through life with intention
