What is your power?

Before we talk about owning it, let’s get clear on what “power” even means.

• Scientific Power – The rate at which work is done, or energy is transferred.
• Training Power – The ability to exert force quickly: strength × speed.
• Personal Power – The ability to influence, decide, and take control.

I’m not talking about leaping buildings or shooting webs. This is the kind of power you can’t see but you feel. It’s built from the inside out, and no one else can give it to you, or take it away. You’ve got to claim it, live it, and protect it.

Energy and the Blocks That Hold It Back

We’re all full of energy. It’s in how we think, move, and show up in the world. But energy doesn’t always flow freely. Life throws us stress, fear, doubt, things that stack up like walls inside us. Those are your energy blocks, and they’re real.

The good news is that blocks can be moved. And the fastest way to do it is through movement.

Why Movement Matters

Exercise isn’t just about stronger muscles or smaller jeans. It’s energy in motion. Every step, swing, lift, or jump shakes something loose. That movement creates positive energy, and positive energy is what breaks down blocks.

When you challenge yourself physically, you’re doing more than building fitness. You’re stripping away the layers that hide your strength. You meet yourself in the hard moments, when your mind says “stop” but you keep going. That’s where you find your power.

Do Something Hard Every Year

Here’s my rule: once a year, do something that scares you a little. Something that feels bigger than you. These challenges force you to dig deeper than you thought you could. They strip away your walls and show you what’s been hiding underneath.

You might break down. You might cry. You’ll feel things you’ve been holding for years. But that release? That’s freedom. That’s when your body feels spent, but your spirit feels alive.

How to Move an Energy Block

1. Move: It has to be physical.
2. Choose Simple Movement: Something you can repeat over and over for 15, 30, even 60 minutes. Pick something that doesn’t overload your brain as the goal is to push your body physically to the point where it’s spent.
3. Dial In & Embrace the Inner Dialogue: You’ll go on a mental ride. Your thoughts will swing from I’ve got thisto Why am I doing this?to I can’t, and back to I did it. That’s the process. Don’t fight it.
4. The Unveiling: When you’re completely spent, you’ve got nothing left to hold up your mask. That’s the “leave it all on the mat” moment.

Owning Your Power, Day In, Day Out

• Move Your Energy – Positive movement builds positive power. Whether it’s lifting, swinging, running, or stretching, keep the energy flowing.
• Show Up Consistently – You can’t own your power if you only visit it once in a while. Every session builds trust with yourself.
• See the Connection – Physical training isn’t just about your body. It’s about your mind, your heart, and the way you face the rest of your life.

Owning your power isn’t a box you tick off. It’s not something you “get” and then keep without effort. It’s built choice by choice, rep by rep, day after day.

Some days will feel strong. Some will feel heavy. But the point is, you keep showing up. You keep moving. You keep clearing the blocks so your energy can rise.

Your power is waiting for you. Move toward it. Claim it. Own it.
