For my 33rd birthday, I embarked on a transformative adventure to Alma, Colorado—the highest town in North America, perched 10,361 feet above sea level, nearly two miles above the Earth. The breathtaking views were unlike anything I had ever seen, and the experience pushed me to new heights, both physically and mentally.

 

While in Alma, I accomplished a feat I’ll never forget: climbing several 14ers—mountains towering over 14,000 feet above sea level. I also trained in the highest gym on this side of the globe, a unique challenge that redefined my approach to fitness. Although I thought I was in peak physical condition before the trip, the elements humbled me. It wasn’t my strength or endurance alone that got me through—it was my winner’s mentality that turned the impossible into reality.

 

By the end of that week, I was in the best shape of my life. My resting heart rate had plummeted, my body had adapted to utilize oxygen like never before, and I felt like a human engine, burning through carbohydrates with ease. I leaned out to an astonishing 7% body fat while maintaining 240 pounds of muscle. The results spoke for themselves: when I returned to sea level, I shattered the world deadlift record—not once, but twice.

 

This year, I want to share this life-changing experience with you. I’m inviting you to join me for a 7-day journey to the mountain top, where we’ll unlock your full potential. We’ll begin at a natural hot springs spa, easing our bodies into the altitude and preparing our minds for the challenges ahead. In Alma, you’ll train in North America’s highest gym and attend immersive seminars covering everything from nutrition and fitness programming to developing the winner’s mindset.

 

Together, we’ll climb mountains—literally and figuratively. This isn’t just a retreat; it’s your opportunity to transform your body, sharpen your mind, and discover what it means to rise above.
