So many things I could offer here that have the potential to radically transform your life. But I've learned through years of working with people very closely, that human beings just don't work that way.
I could tell you the exact workout routine and the exact nutrition protocol to follow to give yourself the absolute best results possible. What would be the outcome of such words?
Not much.
Maybe one in a thousand will put into action what is given freely as information.
There's many reasons for this but that's for a different article.
Today I just want to share some ideas that I used today and implemented with clients. You can do with them what you will. Once the letters becomes words and leave my fingertips, the result is beyond my control. Such is life. Much of life is this way. Things are rarely what they seem.
Many of the things I talk about might seem downright crazy to most people. If you're been on my newsletter awhile you have more exposure to these unorthodox ways of seeing the world so maybe they don't seem quite so "out there"..
Either way, here's some ideas from today-
Awaken. Outside while coffee brews. Bare feet in the grass. Hands also.
Coffee. Soak in some morning light.
Find stairs. Go up then come down. Repeat. Heart pumps. Lungs too. Legs get some excellent work.
Calisthenics/isometrics circuit. Mix and match squat/pushup/wall push/calf raise etc.. work the muscles through a full range of motion and also into intense long duration isometric contractions.
Refreshed, rejuvenated, invigorated.
Breakfast. Eggs, bacon, fruit.
Sled dragging barefoot in the grass. Dragging many different ways, including sideways. Light weight for a long period of time without rest.
Roll in grass. Tumble on each side. Work on some handstands.
Carry weight plate in one hand, walk around the yard in circles. Reverse. Forward. Sideways.
Much of my training nowadays is performed multiple times a day. Each workout may only be 11 minutes. Maybe less, maybe more. I sit for a bit, take part in daily life activities, family stuff etc.. but when I have a minute or 7 or 17 I do some form of training.
One long workout is fine. Nothing wrong with it. Just not what I do much of these days. Your training needs to reflect where you are at right now. And where you want to go. It's always a process of discovery and adaptation.
You find the way. There are clues you can find from other people's training but it comes down to you in the end.
That is all for today.
