I could go into a lengthy disquisition about my professional experiences or achievements from this year, but I’d have a feeling that I was ignoring an elephant in the room.
There’s no secret: There’s something that has frustrated not only me, but the entire world – at least to some degree. It’s disrupted our normalcy and tampered with everyone’s ability to function, recreate, and work without some form of adjustment. And we all know what that is.
You know what’s worse than training advice messing up your body? Training advice messing up your mind first.
Without a doubt, there seem to have emerged two competing ‘sides’ to fitness, strength training and healthy living. I’ve spoken about these sides in the past.
One man to another: Trying to look “terrible” is making you look TERRIBLE.
If we’re making the decision to go through life thinking there’s a problem to be had with anyone and everyone we encounter, the real problem is most likely with us, and we’re not helping anyone with anything. What are we really trying to accomplish here?
I think I’m finally old enough to do one of these.
