People, Person, Clothing

I have always been a guy who likes to get into the zone when I go to the gym. Headphones in, hood up, and if I could close my eyes, I would. There is something about music that makes it the perfect workout companion. It touches the heart of your motivation and gets you pumped to pump. No matter what kind of music you like when you are doing other things, when you are working out, most of us love a good beat. That is why it seems like a perfect marriage between Burn Boot Camp and legendary American DJ, Marshmello.

The brand announced global music producer and artist Marshmello as Equity Partner, Franchise Partner, and Executive Partner for Creative & Music, meaning your favorite workout is about to get a new sound, exclusive to the workouts.

Generational fitness: A father’s story for passing health to his children

David and Shaya Charvet talk fitness and working together as father and son

Adult, Female, Person

Father's Day is a holiday that is sometimes overlooked, sometimes celebrated, and sometimes divisive. There are those of us who have great relationships with our fathers, there are some who have strained relationships with our fathers, and then there are many of us who are in between. I was lucky enough to have the perfect father, split between three different men. My biological father taught me how to fail. Mostly, he taught me what not to be as a father by failing hard and often. There are lessons there. My step-father was the provider and the disciplinarian, something I didn't openly acknowledge even to myself until later in life. And my grandfather was the hero, the man I always looked up to and wanted to be. All three were vital to my upbringing and teaching me how to be a man, and some people have them in one person. Shaya Charvet grew up with a father who was first a rising star in Hollywood, who then stepped away at the height of his career to be a present father. He decided to be all three of the men I listed, and then taught lessons through fitness. David Charvet and his son have launched BUILD, a new kind of gym with a focus on all the things you would want out of staying in shape, with the background of a father and son learning together.

My dad brought me to the gym from a very young age. They always told me if you can take care of your body and be disciplined there, you can be disciplined in all other parts of life. - Shaya Charvet, Co-Founder BUILD

James McMillian, President of Tone House, gives us a peek into the lifestyle we all crave.

City, Blazer, Clothing

Living in New York City offers a slew of opportunities to meet new people. As a matter of fact, even when you want to be alone, you're likely going to meet six or seven. There are new people everywhere. And more of them, like myself, show up every day. So I tend to relish meeting as many as possible. But when I met James McMillian, it was different. He is striking. Sure, he is handsome, built like a steam engine, and dresses like he just left the red carpet. But it is more than that with him. The room gravitated towards him. And, simultaneously, split for him as if he were parting the Red Sea. What is it about him? Confidence. Appearance. Aura. He struck me as a man who has it all. So, I wanted to find out how he did it. We spoke at length about his life, profession, discipline, and mindset. And, as the president of Tone House, a premier athletic training facility in New York City, he proved to have a lifestyle most of us crave. So, how did he do it?

Progress over perfection. Take your time. The small wins are the most important because longevity is key. Give yourself grace and become a life athlete. - James McMillian, Tone House President
