KETO BAGELS | KETO SAVAGE KITCHEN
updated
🔥 WEEKS IN: 6
⏳ WEEKS REMAINING: VARIABLE
🔥 WEIGHT: I woke up this morning at 193.1
⚖️ MACROS: Will be consuming between 3,000-4,000 calories this week. I may allow myself a higher day as a refeed once a week.
💪 BODYFAT PERCENTAGE: My personal InBody is showing 15.6%
🏋️♂️ STRENGTH MARKERS: Strength is definitely still trending up. However, I’ve noticed that when I consume a bolus of protein, my joints hurt more which has made recovering from the heavy lifts a bit more challenging.
💦 CARDIO: I am staying at level 15 on the stairmaster for 25 minutes once a week. I have incorporated a weekly trail run of about 1 - 1.5 miles over a technical terrain and I’ve enjoyed that.
🚽 GI IMPLICATIONS: No issues.
🧂SODIUM: Around 8,000 mg/day. Potassium has been around half that intake.
🍽️ THIS WEEK’S STAPLE FOODS: Sticking with 1 full Keto Brick a day. I’ve thawed out some pastured chicken so I plan on having that. I’ve gone with a rotisserie chicken setup and there is a bit more variance in the weight of the chicken so hopefully discrepancies will average out throughout the week.
🧠 MINDSET TOWARDS IT ALL: It’s mentally challenging going from the leanest man on Earth to embracing a bodyfat around 15-16%. I feel like I’m in “beefcake” mode right now! I recognize that I can’t sustain competition levels of conditioning year round but embracing the bulk is still challenging, even for me having done this so many times!
📖 OTHER THOUGHTS: I’m enjoying my Full Body training split still. I feel like the added frequency is advantageous compared to a bodypart split. With my chest being my lagging bodypart, I will likely start incorporating a bit more chest centric movements throughout the week. This may mean simply including two chest exercises per day rather than just the one.

🗓️ DATE: 5/13/2024
🔥 WEEKS IN: 5
⏳ WEEKS REMAINING: VARIABLE
🔥 WEIGHT: I woke up this morning at 191.1
⚖️ MACROS: Will be consuming between 3,000-4,000 calories this week. I may allow myself a higher day as a refeed once a week.
💪 BODYFAT PERCENTAGE: My personal InBody is showing 17.2% Professional Inbody is showing 13.9%
🏋️♂️ STRENGTH MARKERS: Continual progress in the volume department. Focusing on flawless form on all my top sets with the primary compound movements.
💦 CARDIO: I am staying at level 15 on the stairmaster for 25 minutes once a week. I have incorporated a weekly trail run of about 1 - 1.5 miles over a technical terrain and I’ve enjoyed that.
🚽 GI IMPLICATIONS: No issues.
🧂SODIUM: Around 8,000 mg/day. In light of a recent hair analysis test, I need to start increasing my Magnesium intake a bit.
🍽️ THIS WEEK’S STAPLE FOODS: One full Keto Brick, ground beef, and several eggs continues to be the staple. I’ll likely allow myself a day or two during the weekend to incorporate more variety like a keto pizza or something on the grill.
🧠 MINDSET TOWARDS IT ALL: I feel like I’m locked into a good spot for the building phase. I’ve embraced the higher bodyfat post competition and I’m at peace with that. More than anything, I just want to ensure that my performance markers are continuing to improve!
📖 OTHER THOUGHTS: The main focus is definitely building lean tissue. However, I do have a 50 Mile March coming up in a few months and I want to be prepared for that. I’ve also got quite a bit of western hunting coming later this year. That involves quite a bit of hiking with a heavy pack at elevation and I want to make sure I’ve got the conditioning to perform for that.

🔥 WEEKS IN: 4
⏳ WEEKS REMAINING: VARIABLE
🔥 WEIGHT: I woke up this morning at 189.7
⚖️ MACROS: Will be consuming between 3,500-4,000 calories this week. I may allow myself a higher day as a refeed once a week.
💪 BODYFAT PERCENTAGE: Inbody is showing 15.9%.
🏋️♂️ STRENGTH MARKERS: Continual progress in the volume department. Focusing on flawless form on all my top sets with the primary compound movements.
💦 CARDIO: I am staying at level 15 on the stairmaster for 25 minutes once a week. I have incorporated a weekly trail run of about 1 - 1.5 miles over a technical terrain and I’ve enjoyed that.
🚽 GI IMPLICATIONS: No issues.
🧂SODIUM: Around 8,000 mg/day. In light of a recent hair analysis test, I need to start increasing my Magnesium intake a bit.
🍽️ THIS WEEK’S STAPLE FOODS: Ground beef, eggs, and a whole Keto Brick as the stable. I will be traveling this week and may incorporate some Carnivore Bar and Carnivore Snax options as well.
🧠 MINDSET TOWARDS IT ALL: I feel like my body is responding well to consuming at the lower end of my caloric window. I am increasingly more hungry though! I’m a bit heavier than I would ideally like to be but I’m also trying to mentally embrace that added bodyfat and be at peace with it.
📖 OTHER THOUGHTS: I feel incredibly good about the quality of the foods that I do consume. This makes eating at a surplus much more mentally tolerable as I don’t have any guilt associated with it. I’m excited to see my lifting metrics consistently improve and I feel good about allowing myself a bit more time to catch up on sleep now that I’m no longer in my prep.

🗓️ DATE: 4/29/2024
🔥 WEEKS IN: 3
⏳ WEEKS REMAINING: VARIABLE
🔥 WEIGHT: I woke up this morning at 191.7
⚖️ MACROS: I’ve been targeting between 3,500-5,500 calories. I’m going to trend on the lower end of that range this week as I’ve been on the upper end of that range for the past several weeks..
💪 BODYFAT PERCENTAGE: Inbody is showing 16.8%.
🏋️♂️ STRENGTH MARKERS: Continual progress in the volume department. Focusing on flawless form on all my top sets with the primary compound movements.
💦 CARDIO: I am staying at level 15 on the stairmaster for 25 minutes once a week. I may also throw in an occasional trail run simply to get outside a bit more.
🚽 GI IMPLICATIONS: No issues.
🧂SODIUM: Around 8,000 mg/day
🍽️ THIS WEEK’S STAPLE FOODS: Ground beef or ground lamb, whole eggs, and a Keto Brick! I may include a few pickles throughout the day for some additional sodium as well.
🧠 MINDSET TOWARDS IT ALL: I’m definiltey on the heavier side of the spectrum that I feel comfortable with. Embracing the bodyfat gain that comes with a building phase is just part of it and I’m at peace with it. Doesn’t make it easy though! That’s why having other metrics to continually see progress in is so important. Monitoring my lifting stats throughout this building phase to ensure forward progress is key!
📖 OTHER THOUGHTS: I feel good about the types of foods I’m consuming. I want to make sure I’m optimizing optimal health at this stage so I’m excited about modulating between these calorie ranges and throwing in some trail running to mix up the forms of movement and get outside.

🔥 WEEKS IN: 2
⏳ WEEKS REMAINING: VARIABLE
🔥 WEIGHT: I woke up this morning at 185.9
⚖️ MACROS: Keeping my intake between 3,500k as a minimum and 5,500k as an upper limit. At least 200g of protein a day.
💪 BODYFAT PERCENTAGE: Inbody is showing 17.4%.
🏋️♂️ STRENGTH MARKERS: I’ve decided to stick with the full body routine for the foreseeable future. However, in an attempt to bring up my chest a bit more, I’ll be incorporating two different exercises for chest development each time I train.
💦 CARDIO: I am staying at level 15 on the stairmaster for 25 minutes once a week.
🚽 GI IMPLICATIONS: No issues.
🧂SODIUM: Around 8,000 mg/day
🍽️ THIS WEEK’S STAPLE FOODS: I did an extended fast this week. I’ve been averaging between 4,500-5,500 calories daily, which is pretty aggressive for me. Just as being in an extreme caloric deficit for prolonged periods of time isn’t optimal, being at an extreme surplus for prolonged periods isn’t optimal either. There are benefits to modulating caloric intake and giving the digestive system a break from periods of significant consumption. As I am in a buildnig phase, my main objective is to consume at a slight surplus and focus on building muscle, how then does it make sense to incorporate a fast? I was starting to notice a bit more joint pain and inflammation from the high consumption, and I wanted to give my body a bit of a reset. By being aggressive with my consumption lately, my baseline glucose has trended higher and my ketones lower. I’ve also been asking quite a lot of my digestive tract to absorb and assimilate I’ll I’ve been consuming. By simply taking a few days with a strategically extended fast, I’ll optimize fat metabolism again, and joint pain will subside. My digestive health will improve, and I’ll be able to make better use of the calories I do consume when I bring them back in, as my body will be more efficient at using available food upon the reintroduction. This is not something you want to overdo, but I can totally see myself incorporating a strategic fast in the context of this surplus every quarter or so based on how I’m feeling. #naturalbodybuilding #ketobulk

This is unfortunate news for us as raw organic cacao butter is our primary base ingredient in the Keto Bricks! To give you some perspective, up to this point, I've been sourcing raw organic cacao butter at $5/pound. I've been getting quotes lately at $20+/pound!
From the beginning, I've been incredibly transparent with y'all on the business side of the Bricks. You know that our margins on the Bricks are pretty slim to begin with. With our primary ingredient quadrupling in price, we are now losing money on the Bricks....that's not good.
I've tried to be incredibly stoic about this entire situation, focus on the things I have control over, and not lose sleep over the things I don't. I can't control the rainy season in Africa, but this whole situation has definitely cost me some sleepless nights and a ton of stress!
I've tried to avoid changing our pricing, but I'm going to be forced to do so as we advance. Rather than increasing the cost above the $12/Brick or charging shipping, I'm simply going to reduce the discount associated with the volume orders. I'll be dropping the discount percentage by 10% across the board.
TO ILLUSTRATE:
Currently, if you purchase 6-11 Bricks, you get a 20% volume discount. This will change to a 10% volume discount. If you purchase 12-23 Bricks, you get a 25% volume discount. This will change to a 15% volume discount. If you currently purchase 24+ Bricks, you get a 30% volume discount. This will change to a 20% volume discount.
This price change will go into effect on the first of May, so please plan accordingly.
To be honest, I have no idea if this is going to solve the problem. None of my suppliers can give me any definitive info as to how long the cacao market will be facing shortages or how the prices will climb. I'm simply trying to do the best I can with what little info I have.
In an attempt to be as proactive as possible, I've started exploring flavor formulations using alternative fat sources that can be used in place of cacao butter. I've got a beef tallow-based Brick that I'm pretty excited about and think you'll enjoy...
I hate this from a business standpoint and I hate this for y'all. My goal and priority has always been to create the highest quality nutritional product I can and offer it to you at a reasonable price that removes barriers to living a healthy lifestyle! It's frustrating that market fluctuations in the cacao commodity market have forced me to adjust price but that is simply the reality of the situation we are currently in. Know that I am committed to doing my absolute best for all of you and I will do everything in my power to keep this business running solid and the Bricks available! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns!

🗓️ DATE: 4/15/2024
🔥 WEEKS IN: 1
⏳ WEEKS REMAINING: VARIABLE
🔥 WEIGHT: I woke up this morning at 192
⚖️ MACROS: Keeping my intake between 4,000k as a minimum and 5,500k as an upper limit. At least 200g of protein a day.
💪 BODYFAT PERCENTAGE: Inbody is showing 17.6%. DEXA has me at 13.1% when I tested two weeks ago.
🏋️♂️ STRENGTH MARKERS: I will be documenting my lifting metrics much more throughout this building phase. After seeing the increase in lean mass via the less DEXA scan, I’m likely going to stick with the full-body routine for the next several months at least to maximize it’s potential while in a caloric surplus.
💦 CARDIO: I am staying at level 15 on the stairmaster for 25 minutes once a week.
🚽 GI IMPLICATIONS: No issues.
🧂SODIUM: Around 8,000 mg/day
🍽️ THIS WEEK’S STAPLE FOODS: I’m consuming 2 Keto Bricks a day after my training session. Depending on hunger levels, I may also add a carnivore bar or two to that first meal. My second and final meal varies a bit but is generally a beef and egg mix.
🧠 MINDSET TOWARDS IT ALL: I’m excited to focus on the weight training component of bodybuilding and build as much lean tissue as possible for the next few years!
📖 OTHER THOUGHTS: My weight is holding steady around the 190lb mark which I feel is a solid position for me to be at going into this building phase. I can see myself modulating my calories between 4k-5k and try to keep my weight between 180-190lbs.

20 weeks post show and I'm now transitioning into a building phase. This has been the most productive competition prep and reverse diet I've ever gone through to date!
To share some metrics...
🔥Start of prep…
⚖️My starting weight was 182 lbs
💥DEXA was 14.3 %
💥Caliper 9.04%
💥Inbody had me at 15.5%
🍽️ started at 3k calories
💪67,960g of lean tissue
🔥The depth of my prep…
⚖️151.2 lbs
💥3.9-4.1% bf via DEXA
💥3.47% on caliper
💥3% on Inbody
🍽️ 1860 calories/day as my lowest weekly average.
🔥End of reverse…
⚖️190 lbs
💥13.1% on DEXA
💥8.57% on caliper
💥16.5% on Inbody
🍽️ 5,000 calories/day on average
💪More lean mass than ever at 72,180g lean tissue
By cycling through my 7-phase protocol, I’ve improved my “starting” and “finishing” positions each time I go through a building and cutting phase. This ensures that I get leaner with every prep that I do. It ensures that I have more muscle on my frame with each time I step on stage. It ensures that I maintain a leaner composition while in a building phase than I did during the prior building phase. It gives me a higher caloric threshold to work with, ensuring I don’t have to take my calories near as low in the depth of the prep.
It’s the fountain of youth ladies and gents! Getting better and better with each year that passes is the whole goal here!!!

However, we are firing back up the printing press and excited for what's on the horizon!
We've decided to drop three new designs with this "Manifesto Collection."
My 2023 Manifesto was: "Discipline Dictates Destiny"
That mantra helped me get through 2023 and all the chaos of the multiple bodybuilding competitions. Discipline is what gets us through life's hurdles, as motivation isn't enough.
My 2024 Manifesto is: "Reflect, Recalibrate, Re-engage"
This is fitting, as there are so many moving pieces in my life right now, and I need to get everything dialed in and optimized.
Both of these mantras hit home for me, as I'm sure they will for you as well!
By slapping them on a shirt, I can keep them top of mind and live my life accordingly!
We are stoked to be dropping these two manifestos this Sunday at 12:00 noon central!
We'll be releasing them on t-shirts and our awesome long-sleeved thermal shirts!
The "Discipline Dictates Destiny" design will also be featured in a more feminine font for all you ladies out there wanting to rock this pattern!
Thank you again for all your support!
Much Love,
Robert, Crystal, Rigel, and the entire
Live Savage crew

🔥 WEEKS IN: 19
⏳ WEEKS REMAINING: VARIABLE
🔥 WEIGHT: I woke up this morning at 185.3
⚖️ MACROS: 350g Fat | 250g Protein | 30g Total Carbs | 4270 Calories. This is a rough (goal intake). Lately, I’ve just been trying to hit these macro minimums and stay between 4,500-5,500 calories a day.
💪 BODYFAT PERCENTAGE: Inbody is showing 13.8%
🏋️♂️ STRENGTH MARKERS: Lifts are consistently going up and so is overall training volume. Did 315 for 10 reps on the final set of squats today for example.
💦 CARDIO: I am staying at level 15 on the stairmaster for 25 minutes.
🚽 GI IMPLICATIONS: No issues whatsoever.
🧂SODIUM: I’m averaging about 8,500 mg a day now. However, increased food variety has resulted in increased sodium fluctuations.
🩸 BLOOD GLUCOSE: Blood glucose is consistently between around about 90mg/dl
🩸 BLOOD KETONES: Anywhere from .2-1.1, depending on meal/training time and when I test.
🍆 LIBIDO: All good on this front!
🍽️ THIS WEEK’S STAPLE FOODS: I’m allowing for a bit more food variety during the weekends but sticking to the same foods throughout the week. I’m incorporating 2 Keto Bricks a day during my first meal now.
🧠 MINDSET TOWARDS IT ALL: I feel like I’m definitely in the building phase stage at this point and am certainly consuming ample calories to add more tissue. I’ve embraced the additional bodyfat and I’m at peace with it though I don’t have any desire to add much beyond this point.
📖 OTHER THOUGHTS: Interestingly enough, I’m at a slightly higher weight than I was at the onset of the prep. However, I’m consuming about 1,000-2,000 calories more than I was at the onset and my bodyfat is showing 3-4% points lower….that is the beauty of cycling through these phases in the correct manner! You get continually better each time you cycle through them, truly making this a healthy and sustainable sport with continued improvement.

💦 CARDIO: I am staying at level 15 on the stairmaster for 25 minutes.
🚽 GI IMPLICATIONS: No issues whatsoever.
🧂SODIUM: I’m averaging about 8,500 mg a day now. However, increased food variety has resulted in increased sodium fluctuations.
🩸 BLOOD GLUCOSE: Blood glucose is consistently between around about 90mg/dl
🩸 BLOOD KETONES: Anywhere from .2-1.1, depending on meal/training time and when I test.
🍆 LIBIDO: All good on this front!
🍽️ THIS WEEK’S STAPLE FOODS: I will be making a full Keto Brick, a carnivore bar, and about 20oz of beef and 20oz of lamb my staples. I’ll probably incorporate 1 or 2 days a week of increased food variety this week.
🧠 MINDSET TOWARDS IT ALL: I allowed myself a ton of extra food last week and my weight increased as a result. However, I was able to truly relax in my environment and I feel like that did wonders for my parasympathetic state.
📖 OTHER THOUGHTS: Last week’s traveling, increased sodium, and incredibly high intake caused some significant weight gain so I will take this week to return to my normal routine and consistent foods to allow things to stabilize. The increased relaxation from last week was well worth it though.

I have made it my mission to take all that I have learned and use that knowledge to help others achieve similar results.
That was the motivation for me to start coaching, write my book, and publish all the content I put out on a regular basis.
To create the ultimate guide for this lifestyle and offer as much value as possible to help people at scale, I've been working relentlessly behind the scenes on a comprehensive online course.
This course is the summation of all I've learned over the past 15 years, and I have no doubt it will change the game in the world of bodybuilding, the ketogenic lifestyle, and performance optimization!
My goal with this course is to leave no stone unturned and provide so much value that it becomes the go-to resource for anybody wanting to improve their body composition and dial in their health.
The finished course will have well over 200 video lessons, spreadsheet downloads, in-depth macronutrient calculations, cooking/training/posing tutorials and so much more!
There is also a private community feature that I'm building out so members can network with others and have a sense of accountability and camaraderie. We will also be hosting challenges and exclusive coaching calls within that community.
I've built out my own custom training app that course participants will have access to and I've partnered with a team to create my own keto-specific Ai database that you can also leverage!
I've also partnered with companies whose products I use and recommend to create exclusive discounts for all of my course participants. Some of these discounts are incredibly generous...like 50% off grass-fed meat delivery services and 25% off supplements. I wanted the discounts and perks for course members to be so advantageous that the cost savings literally pay for the price of the course itself!
I'm in the process of getting this course polished up as we speak. However, I need 100 Beta Testers to put this course to the test and help me get it dialed in...that's why I'm reaching out to you!
The Beta Launch will be capped at 100 members, and the registration deadline will be midnight at the end of this month, March 31st. I'm offering the course at a one-time discount of 50% OFF to all my beta participants. You'll be able to sign up at that discount and have LIFETIME access to all the bells and whistles this course will have to offer.
I'm also going to be offering an exclusive giveaway to the 100 beta participants as a thank-you for all the help in getting this course dialed in and polished. One lucky winner will get an all-expense-paid trip out here to the Compound for some in-depth time with me to live the lifestyle. I'm also going to make that random winner an elite-level coaching client for the next six months so that we can get you truly dialed in!
I'm incredibly excited about this, and I can't wait to get your feedback! This course will continue to grow as I learn more and more. This is the thing I can see myself continuing to pour into for the rest of my life as I'm so passionate about this lifestyle. I'm honored to have you along for the journey and I'm so incredibly grateful for all the support you've shown me over the years!
Let's roll up our sleeves and dive in!!!!

🔥 WEEKS IN: 17
⏳ WEEKS REMAINING: VARIABLE
🔥 WEIGHT: I woke up this morning at 179.6
⚖️ MACROS: 350g Fat | 250g Protein | 30g Total Carbs | 4270 Calories. This is a rough (goal intake) but my actual intake with increase food variety has been around 4,700 calories on average.
💪 BODYFAT PERCENTAGE: Inbody is showing 7.2% on a professional machine and 11.5% on my consumer grade Inbody.
🏋️♂️ STRENGTH MARKERS: Significant improvement in lifts. I’m now hitting the same weight and rep count that I was prior to the prep.
💦 CARDIO: I am staying at level 15 on the stairmaster for 25 minutes.
🚽 GI IMPLICATIONS: No issues whatsoever.
🧂SODIUM: I’m averaging about 8,500 mg a day now. However, increased food variety has resulted in increased sodium fluctuations.
🩸 BLOOD GLUCOSE: Blood glucose is consistently between around about 90mg/dl
🩸 BLOOD KETONES: Anywhere from .2-1.1, depending on meal/training time and when I test.
🍆 LIBIDO: All good on this front!
🍽️ THIS WEEK’S STAPLE FOODS: I’m continuing the increased food variety this week to see how my body responds. I’ll still have a Brick a day as a staple but the meat options will vary. I had a salad for the first time in a year last week and I didn’t have any issues from that.
🧠 MINDSET TOWARDS IT ALL: I’ve been pushing the food pretty high and have been averaging around 4,700 calories. My satiety is much more manageable and I’m incredibly pleased with my performance in the gym. I’m at peace with my conditioning but I prefer the way I look closer to the 175lb mark.
📖 OTHER THOUGHTS: The increased food variety has been nice as we’ve been able to get more creative in preparing meals together as a family. I definitely feel like I’m coming out of the “prep mode” that has been my primary focus for the last year. All of my performance metrics are skyrocketing so I’m excited to keep pushing the envelope there.

🔥 WEEKS IN: 16
⏳ WEEKS REMAINING: VARIABLE
🔥 WEIGHT: I woke up this morning at 179.4 (this is a bit skewed though as I totally flopped my water intake yesterday and had to backload it all in the evening. As such, my weight increased 4 lbs over baseline during the night.)
⚖️ MACROS: 350g Fat | 250g Protein | 30g Total Carbs | 4270 Calories.
💪 BODYFAT PERCENTAGE: Inbody is showing 9%
🏋️♂️ STRENGTH MARKERS: Still making significant headway each week. All my top sets and volume metrics are steadily increasing.
💦 CARDIO: I am staying at level 15 on the stairmaster for 25 minutes.
🚽 GI IMPLICATIONS: No issues whatsoever.
🧂SODIUM: I’m averaging about 8,500 mg a day now.
🩸 BLOOD GLUCOSE: Blood glucose is consistently between around about 90mg/dl
🩸 BLOOD KETONES: Anywhere from .2-1.1, depending on meal/training time and when I test.
🍆 LIBIDO: Good to go here! Now I just gotta get my puppy and my toddler to give me some alone time with my wife!
🍽️ THIS WEEK’S STAPLE FOODS: 1 whole Keto Brick and a variety of foods. I’m mixing things up and incorporating more food variety as I transition to a building phase. Crystal will cook dinner for us as a family which will involve bringing in some foods I haven’t had in a while.
🧠 MINDSET TOWARDS IT ALL: I’m really getting excited about the strength progressions I’ve been experiencing lately. I’m at peace with my current conditioning and I feel like I won’t have any trouble maintaining this level of conditioning throughout the building phase.
📖 OTHER THOUGHTS: I’m curious to see how the increased food variety does for me over the next few weeks. My weight is holding pretty steady at 175 lbs (other than today’s flux) which is exactly where I want to hang out for a bit. I feel confident I’ll be able to build on the base I currently have so that I can focus on putting on as much lean mass as possible over the next few years.

🧠 MINDSET TOWARDS IT ALL: I’m feeling great! I can definitely tell that I’m rounding out this reverse and returning to some degree of “normalcy”. I’m not constantly thinking about food anymore which is a huge positive.
📖 OTHER THOUGHTS: I’m back to a solid baseline from what I can tell. My relationship with food is on a manageable level. My hunger isn’t rampant. My energy is consistent throughout the day and I’m much more active in other areas of my life besides the gym and training. I now longer feel “depleted” which is incredibly liberating. I’m excited about my training, my food, my life! Getting ready to take over the world!

We went from operating out of a small studio apartment kitchen to renting a commercial space by the hour, to living in a leased warehouse for three years, and then to our current compound here in NW Arkansas!
Over that time, we've experienced so many euphoric highs and rock-bottom lows. There have been moments when I thought I would lose it all, and there have been moments where I've felt on top of the world!
Through it all, the brand has evolved in so many ways.
Six years ago, Crystal and I stayed up all night, mixed the bricks by hand with a fork and measuring cup, and made our first official production run of 142 Bricks. We used sticker labels designed for water bottles and stand-up pouches that were nearly impossible to tear open.
We put the Bricks on the website and hoped for the best...
Fast forward to today, and we are celebrating six years of successful business! We have an awesome production facility, commercial kitchen equipment, and a rockstar team!
Through it all, I can't help but feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude and appreciation for the journey that has been Keto Brick!
I'm SO excited for what the future holds, and I wake up excited to come to work every day to work on my passion. We still have our highs and lows, but I've found my life's calling, and I have no doubt that this is my opportunity to create something of value in this world and contribute to something bigger than myself.
Before I get too excited about the future, I must pause and reflect on how far we've come as a company.
None of it would be possible without YOU.
We truly do have the best customers in the world. Your support, loyalty, and kind words give my life meaning and purpose. For that, I am forever grateful!
We don't ever do discounts outside of our annual "BRICK BY BRICK" moving launch, but I felt compelled to celebrate this 6-year milestone by providing an additional anniversary discount.
As such, I've decided to mirror the Brick By Brick format for the next week!
From now until 11:59 pm on Sunday, the 10th, anybody who uses the code "6YEARS" on their order will get a 15% discount! Remember, this discount is in addition to what you're already getting with the volume discount by purchasing more Bricks!
All of our full-time flavors are currently in stock at the time of this writing. However, since we rarely offer discounts, our Bricks sell out quickly when we do offer them! If there is a particular flavor you have your eye on, you'd better jump on it before someone else does!
Thanks again. We couldn't have done this without YOU! YOU are our oxygen!
Robert, Crystal, Rigel, and the whole Keto Brick Crew!!!

⏳ WEEKS REMAINING: VARIABLE
🔥 WEIGHT: I woke up this morning at 174.4
⚖️ MACROS: 305g Fat | 265g Protein | 20g Total Carbs | 3885 Calories.
💪 BODYFAT PERCENTAGE: Inbody is showing 6.8%.
🏋️♂️ STRENGTH MARKERS: Rockin N Rollin here! I hit 4 plates on squat yesterday and 5 plates on sumo deadlifts today so pretty much back to pre-prep strength markers!
💦 CARDIO: I am staying at level 15 on the stairmaster for 25 minutes.
🚽 GI IMPLICATIONS: No issues whatsoever.
🧂SODIUM: I’m averaging about 9,000mg a day now.
🩸 BLOOD GLUCOSE: Blood glucose is consistently between 70-90mg/dl still.
🍆 LIBIDO: Much more energy for bedroom activities now than a few months ago. The increasing bodyfat and calories is leading to a significant increase in testosterone levels from what it was at the depth of my prep.
🍽️ THIS WEEK’S STAPLE FOODS: 1 whole Keto Brick, a Carnivore Bar, and 40oz of grass finished ground beef is on the menu this week!
🧠 MINDSET TOWARDS IT ALL: I’m feeling really good about it all. My weight is up a bit this morning as a result of some unplanned high calorie days last week. I allowed myself to indulge in some peanut butter and keto cheesecake and overdid it a bit. However, I’m at peace with it and all my strength markers are moving in the right direction so I feel great about that!
📖 OTHER THOUGHTS: I’m definitely starting to feel the habits, structure, and rigidity of the prep starting to fade away from me a bit. That’s not necessarily a negative thing at all and I’ve made it a point to keep many of the positive habits in place. However, I’m no longer fixating on the habits that got me through the prep near as much now which is great as it’s afforded me more mental bandwidth to focus on other things.

Crystal and I have been looking into different dog breeds for a while now. We did a ton of research and landed on the Cane Corso breed for its intense loyalty and protective nature. They are a strain of the Italian Mastiff breed and have a long history of protection. They were used as auxiliary warriors in the Roman Wars and were brought into America to protect livestock and hunt dangerous game. We figured they would be great for protecting our growing homestead and also protecting our family. As such, we pulled the trigger on this beautiful Cane Corso pup and picked him up yesterday! Meet “Diesel”!!!

🔥 WEIGHT: I woke up this morning at 169.9 lbs.
⚖️ MACROS: 255g Fat | 320g Protein | 20g Total Carbs | 3655 Calories.
💪 BODYFAT PERCENTAGE: Inbody is showing 6%.
🏋️♂️ STRENGTH MARKERS: I am continually hitting new PR’s with every gym session as of late!
💦 CARDIO: I am staying at level 15 on the stairmaster for 25 minutes.
🚽 GI IMPLICATIONS: No issues whatsoever.
🧂SODIUM: I’m averaging about 9,000mg a day now.
🩸 BLOOD GLUCOSE: Blood glucose is consistently between 70-90mg/dl. I have a CGM now and I’m testing with that as well. I am doing higher protein this week so I anticipate a bit higher blood glucose.
🍆 LIBIDO: Just got lab work back and testosterone is definitely on the rise!
🍽️ THIS WEEK’S STAPLE FOODS: 1 whole Keto Brick, a Carnivore Bar, and lot’s of ground venison with a can of cod liver!
🥩REFEED: This week is the start of Phase 7 so the refeeds have officially been phased out.
🧠 MINDSET TOWARDS IT ALL: I feel incredible! I’m happy with the level of conditioning I’m holding onto. My relationship with food is healthy. I’m excited to train and I’m loving the process of this reverse. The prep is over and my focus has shifted to other things as I know have the freedom of more mental bandwidth.
📖 OTHER THOUGHTS: I’m excited to see how my body responds with the higher daily rather than incorporating the refeeds to bump up the average. All in all, I’m super pleased with how my metabolism has shifted throughout this reverse and I already feel like I’m lightyears ahead of where I was at this stage in my prior reverse diet. I’ve got no doubt I’ll be able to transition into the building phase with a much better foundation to start from.

🔥 WEIGHT: I woke up this morning at 167.6 lbs.
⚖️ MACROS: 275g Fat | 190g Protein | 20g Total Carbs | 3315 Calories.
💪 BODYFAT PERCENTAGE: Inbody is showing 5.9%.
🏋️♂️ STRENGTH MARKERS: I hit 475 for two on sumo deadlifts this morning which I haven’t got in a LONG time!
💦 CARDIO: I am staying at level 15 on the stairmaster for 25 minutes.
🚽 GI IMPLICATIONS: No issues whatsoever.
🧂SODIUM: I’m averaging about 9,000mg a day now.
🩸 BLOOD GLUCOSE: Blood glucose is consistently between 70-90mg/dl
🍆 LIBIDO: Bowchickawowwow.
🍽️ THIS WEEK’S STAPLE FOODS: I’m keeping things simple this week as well. My meals consist of a full Brick and then a combination of ground beef and ground lamb in the evening.
🥩REFEED: I decided to prolong the Phase 6 stage a bit longer as I wanted to have a solid foundation before moving to Phase 7. As such, I incorporated a refeed last week and will likely have a smaller refeed at some point this week as well. My weight is holding consistent around 167 while averaging 3300 calories a day which I feel really good at.
🧠 MINDSET TOWARDS IT ALL: I definitely feel like I’m returning to a healthy baseline. My lifts are solid, my mindset is good, my relationship with food is positive. I’m super excited about rounding out this reverse and transitioning into a healthy surplus.
📖 OTHER THOUGHTS: I believe prolonging the Phase 6 refeed protocol for just a bit longer is a wise move. My prior reverse diets have only lasted about 12 weeks in total so this one is a bit longer for sure. However, I was in prep quite a bit longer this go around than I have been in the past so it only makes sense to prolong the reverse a bit more as well.

These fellas were dropped off at our place last Monday and we’ve enjoyed every second with them so far!
All four are wethers, meaning they are all castrated males.
These lambs are not yet a year old (will be in April). Three of them are ours and one of them is for our friend.
They don’t love to be messed with and won’t let us close but I’m making it my mission to warm them up to us. I’d love to be able to become friends and have an understanding and respect for each other.
We will be rotating them every 3-5 days so they have new grass to eat and it helps with keeping the parasites at bay.
We will provide them with some hay until the grass grows a little more but once it does they will have more than enough!
Their shelter isn’t completely finished either.. We need to put some sides on it soon. We’ve been told they don’t really go into their shelter here until the sun starts to come out. We also have plenty of shaded areas in our field as well.
We are over the moon excited to be really diving into this homesteading side of things. What a blessing!
We have something else joining us this week…any guesses?!?!

🔥 WEEKS IN: 11
⏳ WEEKS REMAINING: VARIABLE
🔥 WEIGHT: I woke up this morning at 170.1 lbs.
⚖️ MACROS: 250g Fat | 195g Protein | 20g Total Carbs | 3110 Calories.
💪 BODYFAT PERCENTAGE: Inbody is showing 5.5%.
🏋️♂️ STRENGTH MARKERS: I feel incredibly good in the gym with my training. I’m hitting PR’s everyday I train and my recovery is on point! I hit 385 on squats for the first time in a long time this week.
💦 CARDIO: I am staying at level 15 on the stairmaster for 25 minutes.
🚽 GI IMPLICATIONS: No issues whatsoever.
🧂SODIUM: I’m averaging about 9,000mg a day now.
🩸 BLOOD GLUCOSE: Blood glucose is consistently between 70-90mg/dl
🍆 LIBIDO: Interest is definitely increasing. Still not back to 100% yet though.
🍽️ THIS WEEK’S STAPLE FOODS: I’m ate super clean last week but was ravenous and went WAY over my planned intake. This week I’m keeping things simple with just a Brick and ground beef.
🥩REFEED: Planned refeeds are officially over as we are not transitioning into PHASE 7 which involves a higher daily intake but no refeeds.
🧠 MINDSET TOWARDS IT ALL: I’m feeling really good mentally! I feel like I’m seeing a significant increase in overall energy levels and I’m able to focus on so many more things than just food alone. I’ve got a ton going on with the business and home life and it’s nice to be able to pour into those other areas of my life.
📖 OTHER THOUGHTS: I was ravenous last week and averaged 4,200 calories a day after the surplus so my weight is definitely up a bit this week. However, I’m flushing that fluid out as we speak and I honestly think my body and brain benefited from the week of higher intake. I’m excited to get things dialed in this week and skip out on the refeeds in favor of a higher daily average.
Note* These pics were taken this Wednesday morning at a weight of 167lbs.

🔥 WEEKS IN: 10
⏳ WEEKS REMAINING: VARIABLE
🔥 WEIGHT: I woke up this morning at 163.9 lbs.
⚖️ MACROS: 220g Fat | 205g Protein | 20g Total Carbs | 2880 Calories.
💪 BODYFAT PERCENTAGE: Inbody is showing 3.4% bodyfat.
🏋️♂️ STRENGTH MARKERS: I nailed 455 for 2 solid reps on Sumo deadlifts today. Everything is moving in the right direction without a doubt!
💦 CARDIO: I am staying at level 15 on the stairmaster for 25 minutes.
🚽 GI IMPLICATIONS: No issues whatsoever. I removed the miracle rice and that has helped as well.
🧂SODIUM: I’m gradually dropping this and I’m closer to 9,500-10,000mg a day currently.
🩸 BLOOD GLUCOSE: I just ordered a Dexcom CGM so I’m excited to start gathering that data.
🍆 LIBIDO: Interest is definitely increasing. Still not back to 100% yet though.
🍽️ THIS WEEK’S STAPLE FOODS: I’m traveling this week so I’ll be making carnivore snax beef sliders, Keto Brick, and a can of sardines my go-to optioins.
🥩REFEED: This will probably be my last week of incorporating a planned refeed day.
🧠 MINDSET TOWARDS IT ALL: I feel like I’m definitely on the right track to recovery. I’m not nearly as food focused. I listen to my body and eat more when I need to but my body is responding well to those intuitive increases and I don’t over do them.
📖 OTHER THOUGHTS: My weight dropped quite a bit from last week as I got back on track with foods that are easier to track and I started measuring out my sodium intake again. I’m right around 10 lbs over stage weight which is a GREAT place to be this far post prep. My zeal for life and overall energy levels are stabilizing and I honestly feel like a million bucks. This is the smoothest reverse diet I’ve ever done without a doubt!

🔥 WEEKS IN: 9
⏳ WEEKS REMAINING: VARIABLE
🔥 WEIGHT: I woke up this morning at 167.5 lbs.
⚖️ MACROS: 210g Fat | 200g Protein | 15g Total Carbs | 2750 Calories.
💪 BODYFAT PERCENTAGE: Inbody is showing 3.8% bodyfat. Calipers are showing 4.55%
🏋️♂️ STRENGTH MARKERS: My lifts are going up for sure and I’m feeling very energized and powerful in the gym. I hit 385 on squats which I haven’t hit since before the prep!
💦 CARDIO: I am staying at level 15 on the stairmaster for 25 minutes.
🚽 GI IMPLICATIONS: No issues whatsoever.
🧂SODIUM: Still holding the sodium steady at 10,500mg a day on average. I may start dropping this slightly as I take in more food.
🩸 BLOOD GLUCOSE: CGM data has stayed in the 70s-80s.
🍆 LIBIDO: I need to get updated bloodwork to check testosterone levels but things feel like they are improving!
🍽️ THIS WEEK’S STAPLE FOODS: I’m going back to the basics this week and sticking with a ground meat and eggs.
🥩REFEED: I’ll probably only factor in one or two more weeks of refeeds. I’d like to stabilize at about 3k calories and phase out the refeeds.
🧠 MINDSET TOWARDS IT ALL: I feel super solid about how my training is progressing and I honestly feel pretty good about how I’m looking at this stage as well. I still struggle with thoughts of over consumption a bit but everything that I eat is quality food so I don’t feel too guilty in that regard. My weight gain this week is weighing on me a bit but I recognize it’s mostly acute fluid retention.
📖 OTHER THOUGHTS: My weight jumped up a TON this week! That’s mostly a result of eating the rotisserie chickens all last week and not being able to track them as accurately in tandem with the fact that I just seasoned them liberally and was not tracking my sodium intake nearly as strictly. I’ll return to the basics this week and weight out my sodium and get back to ground meat and eggs so I can get that baseline reestablished.
