Purpose
SortoLiving is an ongoing exploration of movement, health, and growth.
Movement has always been a constant in my life. As a kid, exercise gave me confidence, structure, and a way to understand my own potential. As I’ve gotten older it’s remained my anchor through uncertainty. Along the way, I’ve learned how to train smarter, recover better, and adapt fitness to real life instead of forcing my life to adapt to fitness.
I genuinely love teaching. I love watching someone build confidence, gain strength, and realize they’re capable of more than they thought. That’s what drew me deeper into fitness not the aesthetics, not the trends, but the growth. To be fair, getting jacked is a plus.
One of the biggest problems I see in the fitness industry today is how disconnected it’s become from reality. Social media has turned fitness into a constant comparison loop, where everyone is chasing whatever the algorithm promotes next. My goal with SortoLiving is to de-influence—to strip things back and focus on what actually matters.
Everyone has different goals, bodies, and lives. Fitness shouldn’t be designed for full-time influencers—it should work for people with 9-to-5 jobs, families, limited time, and real constraints. I care deeply about showing that you can train effectively without expensive equipment, fuel your body on a budget, and make meaningful progress without burning out.
SortoLiving is my personal journey through strength training, running, and whatever comes next. Sometimes I’ll teach, sometimes I’ll experiment, and sometimes I’ll fail publicly. If you learn something useful along the way, or learn what not to do, then it’s doing its job.
Goals / Key Outcomes
Pillar 1: Practical, Affordable Nutrition
The Goal
Make eating well realistic—without perfection, specialty foods, or endless prep.
Nutrition shouldn’t feel like a second job or a financial burden. SortoLiving focuses on simple, repeatable meals that support training, energy, and everyday life—without trends, extremes, or unnecessary rules.
What This Looks Like
- Simple, repeatable meals for busy workers and parents
- Budget-friendly grocery lists using accessible ingredients
- Recipes that prioritize protein, fiber, and satisfaction
- Scalable meals (cook once, eat multiple times)
- Flexible nutrition that fits real schedules and real life
Why This Matters
Eating well shouldn’t be reserved for people with unlimited time, money, or access. This pillar exists to make nutrition sustainable, approachable, and human.
Pillar 2: Teaching Through Transparency
The Goal
Teach by doing—openly, honestly, and without pretending to have it all figured out.
Instead of polished routines or highlight-reel transformations, SortoLiving documents the process: the adjustments, the mistakes, and the lessons that come with long-term consistency.
What This Looks Like
- Sharing what’s working right now, not what sounds impressive
- Being honest about plateaus, injuries, burnout, and resets
- Showing progress over time instead of “before and after” moments
- Explaining why training or nutrition changes are made
- Treating fitness as a long-term practice, not a short challenge
Why This Matters
Transparency builds trust. Progress is more useful than perfection—and learning in public helps others do the same.
