In this concise monologue, Christian Osgood outlines his "90‑day burn" strategy for entrepreneurs who are constantly working and can’t fit traditional gym sessions into their schedule. He explains that during an intense work sprint you must still eat well, sleep adequately, and stay active, but you can forego a full‑time gym routine by performing a weekly set of core compound lifts—squat, deadlift, lunges, bench press, overhead press, bent‑over row, and pull‑ups. To complement the strength work, Osgood recommends adding regular cardio and a community/team sport (e.g., pickleball or Ultimate Frisbee) to maintain overall fitness while saving time. Once the high‑intensity project ends, he advises returning to a full‑time gym regimen. The overall message is a practical, time‑efficient fitness framework that supports sustained performance during demanding business periods.

Fitness hack for busy entrepreneurs. So every once in a while I do what I call the 90-day burn. It's where wake up to go to bed, I am nonstop working. Sounds crazy, but it's why my businesses are at where they're at today. During this, you have to eat well, you got to sleep well, you got to keep moving, but you don't have time to be in the gym. Here's what you need to do every week. This is what I do. You have squat, deadlift, lunges, bench press, overhead press, bent-over row, and pull-ups. Ton of compound movements to keep the muscles going. Now you need to add one thing to this. You need some cardio and you need some community activity. Choose any sport. Mine are pickleball, Ultimate Frisbee, but literally any team sport. If you can do that, save a bunch of time. And once you're done with your 90-day burn or whatever project you're on, get right back into the gym full-time.
