You know you're doing well when you can hit the gym in the afternoon.

[Squat University @SquatUniversity]

This core exercise is pure GOLD!

Brian Carroll (the World Record squat holder of 1306 lbs) explains the Stir The Pot exercise. This will build a core of iron & take your lifts to the next level!

I’ve been saying this for 20 years.

Exercise through sport >> Gym exercise

🧠 We massively underestimate the role of mind-body connection in fitness and longevity.

☀️ Not to mention being outside.

The gym is the side dish, not the main course.

Best advice I got in my 20s: Nobody cares. When you’re winning, nobody cares. When you’re losing, nobody cares. Stop fearing the judgement of people who were never even thinking about you. Nobody is thinking about you. They’re too busy thinking about themselves. Go do the thing.

Take it from me, a recent empty nester:

The Good Old Days don’t feel like it at the time.

It feels more like hard work and struggle. The days are long but the years fly by.

Then, one day you wake up and the house is quiet.

One of my most cherished memories is coming home from work each day and opening the creaky back door to our 1947 craftsman home.

My 3-year-old daughter (now 21) would drop her toys and run down the hall—her footsteps booming on the old wood floor—to greet me.

I love my life and don’t want to go back, but I do wish I could pass one message across time to 35-year-old me:

You’re living the Good Old Days right now. Savor every moment.

93 years & 231 days old Ann Esselstyn dead hangs for 2 min 52 seconds! To set new WR. (Maybe we call it live hangs instead now?) Distal strength reflects many things.

My main lesson from Palmer Lucky is that I dont hate hard enough

When it comes to Jason, this man is truly a generational hater

[signüll @signulll]

the idea of retirement is so bizarre to me. it assumes the goal of life is to exit effort & replace it with leisure, as if the brain doesn’t atrophy without any resistance.

for most ppl work isn’t the problem.. it’s usually *meaningless* work.

the greatest gift god can give you is the ability to build & be intellectually challenged until your last dying breath. that is a purpose led life.

The Doorman Fallacy
'You have a five-star hotel and it has a doorman, welcoming incoming guests.

McKinsey or Accenture will come in and say, “Your doorman currently costs you X thousand dollars a year. We have defined his or her function as opening the door. We’ll replace said doorman with an automatic door-opening mechanism and an infrared human detector and we’ll save you $30–$40,000 a year.”

They walk away, and they take the credit for the cost savings. Two years later, the hotel’s a catastrophe ... because the doorman was doing multiple things, many of which were human and kind of tacit.

Security would be one; there are no vagrants asleep in the doorway. Hailing taxis, dealing with luggage, recognizing regular guests, providing status to the hotel—there are loads and loads of value creation components to that doorman which aren’t captured in the open-the-door definition."

It's easy to see the visible things, but the invisible things make the difference.

[Kevin Dahlstrom @Camp4]

I think about this a lot.

We owe it to our kids to live boldly.

Because if we don’t… they probably won’t either.

I have tried and failed for a decade to capture this view in #Pittsburgh, and this morning I was finally able to. In this scene, the Duquesne Incline passes above the train tracks right as a Norfolk Southern train was going underneath it. Can't believe my luck that it worked out.
