You don’t have to go fast, you just have to go.

Coming back from a 2 week break. Felt fantastic in the gym the last few days. Decided to revamp the orde rof my lifts from heaviest to lightest in the work out. Highly recommend doing this.

It helped me to hit numbers better than I expected with better form and felt smoother. I got the idea from the inverted pyramid from my PR writing class. Hope this helps yall too.

Just heard the new episode from . It was killer!

In it, discussed two distinct champion qualities that distinguish them from the rest of the crowd

1) The ability to create momentum
2) The ability to keep from derailing your own momentum

My thoughts:

The ability to generate momentum is incredibly hard. I've struggled with it and I know most of my circle have too. We're not alone. You're not alone in having this issue. S**t if you look at my posts, I'm still struggling through it. We're learning together.

Moreover, the second point hit hard for me too. I recently re-started 75 hard after failing out the first time. I made it 6 days into the program and had a cheat meal. I haven't gone a week in a diet without having a cheat meal before. I learned that I celebrated creating some momentum by derailing it myself. That's what I hope to learn this time around.

Hope these points helped yall. 🙏 much love.

The study was conducted with 18 fitness enthusiasts during a 5k run where heart rate and mental fatigue were measured before, during, and after. What they found is interesting. “The researchers found the interval running capacity among the mentally fatigued fitness enthusiasts was moderately greater with music compared to without music and was the same as when the participants were not mentally fatigued.” -Science Daily....

Headphones First and foremost, everyone, not just obese people should have a set of headphones or at least a speaker of some sort. The people who train regularly without any music are sociopaths and are on a mission to restore their honor. I’m kidding but headphones really do intensify the training session and help you get the most of the time....

Obesity is a problem that so many people are dealing with. It’s so hard to understand and cut through all the noise to understand what is true and what is not. More than that, many of the articles I read don’t really seem to understand the problem at all.

A recent article by US News reported that obesity rates are now topping a whopping 40%, on average. The obesity epidemic is growing, and rapidly.
