  • 😂 Its Cool, bruh in Blue. I didn’t really care about graduations and the stage walks either 🤷🏽‍♂️ . 🎓 But still, congrats to all pre school, Elementary, middle school, high school, college graduations and anyone else whose leveled up in their education this year. Especially to my black folk, I know we’re growing more tired of the system and some of the things that are unnecessary and falsely taught, but many of you have made family history, have made your parents proud, & still have gotten a little smarter; just educate yourself outside that system on what you know you need. School was rough for me, extremely... but i still made it somehow. 😤 I had teachers tell me i wouldn’t be anything and now I’m teaching THEIR kids and they in MY DMs 😩. 😤 I’ve had schools try to put me in special ed and then I started COACHING special Ed students. 😤 I barely passed a lot of my grades, and now I’m CREATING CURRICULUMS for schools! 😤 I got expelled out of elementary school with a long list of suspensions, detentions, fights etc and now I’m SPEAKING at elementary graduations 😤 I punched a cop, got slammed and survived and now they’re THANKING me for all that I do 😤 I struggled with anger issues to the point where people thought I was demon possessed and now I’m coaching mentees on SELF CONTROL . 🔥 If I could make it through this JACKED UP SYSTEM, literally and I mean L I T E R A L L Y, anyone can ✊🏽 (Rainbow Elementary Graduation Speech photo) #GetGainsOrGetGone #TheBestOfBAM

  • 🗣Guest Speaking at Austell Elementary Graduation 👦🏽 . Austell Elementary had me as the guest speaker for their 5th grade graduation ceremony last night, and i was MAD nervous 😅. Sending off a whole class is pretty heavy and I’m nooot a public speaking type. But if that’s apart of the path then it’s gotta be done 🤷🏽‍♂️. I stuck to what i knew, talking to them like how i do to my mentees I touched a little on my life, upbringing, struggles in hopes to motivate the kids all while drowning in my own sweat. Then I proceeded to continue to drown in my own sweat for the next 40 min after 😂😂😂😩 But it was a good time. Had a lot of good talks and got to see some of my students from the Boys and Girls Club. My next post will be a #IGTV video of the segment. Like I said, I ain’t a speaker but I said a lil sum sum 😤 #getgainsorgetgone #thebestofbam #bshacksexercisebook

  • 👦🏽 #CobbMentoringMatters: Day 15 | Court👨🏻‍⚖️ - ✊🏽 I find that it’s best to teach young boys by example and being transparent. It’s easier said and done but telling them my life situations is what’s really going to connect to them. - 📝 Unfortunately many boys grow up without fathers and positive male role models to teach them how to conduct themselves in dire situations; I especially noticed this when I went to court Wednesday for an expired tag and no insurance (which I didn’t know). I faced a near $1000 fine and getting my license revoked, but after making the officers, pre judge, & judge laugh, them finding out what I do for the community, and experiencing how I present myself, I walked out with having to pay only half, NOTHING on my record, AND a “thank you for what you do” from the officers, pre judge, AND judge. Others before me got jail, probation & fines for things even less than that, ALL because of lack of presentation. I used my situation to teach the boys how to conduct themselves. 1. Dress down 2. Keep your pants up 3. Yessir Nosir, Yes maam, no ma’am, yes your honor, no your honor 3. Look people in the eyes stand square 4. Even muster a smile if you can Etc etc etc - 🎭 We role played to make sure they know EXACTLY what to do and they did well after practicing. This experience is making me think of more that I want to do with young boys, especially black ones. We need more men teaching them what they’re not getting from school nor parents. #TheBestofBAM #GetGainsorGetGone #BshacksExerciseBook - - - 🚨Bshack’s Exercise Book is available at (link in bio): @TheBestOfBam .com/books (signed copy) #BarnesAndNoble (leave review) #Amazon ( leave review) #Kindle #iBooks 📧If you’d like me to come to your school or event, email me at: bam@thebestofbam.com

  • 🖤#CobbMentoringMatters: Day 13👲🏾 - 🎖 What do you want your Legacy to be? This was the question of the hour to my mentees, and yes, best BELIEVE I used @nipseyhussle ’s life as an example. Music artist’s are who these kids listen to and his life was the perfect machine to drive my point home. After we finished working out and mediating we had a serious discussion about the topic. I told them all the great things he did after music, and how he’s now the music artist whose left the BIGGEST impact on the world... even my life. 📝I mentioned how I’m working on my legacy.. with them, my books, my coaching, my authoring, clothing, and other things I’m into; I told them how I want the world to remember me and reiterated that life isn’t promised, so work on that legacy starting Today? Do you want the world to remember you as the boy who got I to fights? Do you want to be remembered as the one who distrusted class? Do you want to be remembered as the one who died too young to change his ways? That’s how I would have been remembered if i left this earth as a young high schooler 🗣We ended by allowing them to go around the room and explain how THEY want to be remembered; loved today’s session✊🏽 #GetGainsOrGetGone - 📱Check my story to see a little of our session - - - 🛍 4G Apparel: getgainsorgetgone.com (Link in Bio) 👨🏽‍💻Online Coaching / Workout Plans: - GETGAINSORGETGONE.mypthub.net (Link in Bio) 🏋🏽‍♂️1 on 1 Training: Inbox for Inquire Main Page: @brandonmashack Fitness Page: @getgainsorgetgone

  • 😎 I could move in a lil more silence like many people choose to do and that’s cool, but I personally I choose to live my life like an open book for the most part (with still having my privacies). ✊🏽I want people to see the journey. I want to expose people to the possibilities & capabilities that they can accomplish. I want folks with similar career paths & interest to LEARN how to get to the next stage through looking at my life. So many people get the top without putting other up on game, but i ain’t like that. More of us can win if we share. I be giving y’all the keys on my story posts. Get motivated, not envious. This ain’t no fame play, cus I don’t even want that, but for the people who do see what’s happening, get motivated and move in your purpose as well. Living like so can be a lil dangerous but ain’t no one gonna stop God’s purpose. 😤Live by example. 🤫 Talk a lil less. #GetGainsOrGetGone

  • 👔#CobbMentoringMatters: Day 12👦🏾 - 📝 Had court this afternoon but I still wanted to make a little time to see the mentees before hand. I thought it was important for them to see their Coach dressed professionally for once. I wasn’t a fan of dressing up as I got older, but thankfully I had a father to continuously and annoyingly push the lesson of “there is time and places for when a man needs to suit up”. Most younger boys hate dressing up, but these kids don’t have that father/ positive male figure to teach them that there are times when you need to; so I will. In fact, I’ll probably designate going forward that at the last Friday of the month, WE SUIT UP (at school 😌). #GetGainsOrGetGone #TheBestofBAM
