"Lift weights, go for runs, stretch out, eat good, stop drinking. Pretty straightforward. If you don't use it, you're gonna lose it. Every day that you don't do work, you're going backwards. You can't get away with what you got away with when you were 23." - @jockowillink

@charliehawkAB @POTUS Hell yeah. Let's goooo

@KingBogota @Fender Indeed, the quality of any guitar made in Japan puts Fender to shame.

@BenBankas Ben how about doing a show in Edmonton between March 16-18? You'll be in the area anyhow. Come up after Lethbridge!

@brianlilley @brianlilley , the ugly truth is that it's about more than keeping "10,000 dairy farmers happy." Seventeen ridings in Quebec directly benefit from supply management. They can change the outcome of an election. And THAT'S who he panders to. Read about it: https://t.co/6jPLJkxWsC

@ChrisBarber1975 Huge congrats from Tokyo, man.

A UK Biobank study of 22,398 people found something mindblowing:
Just 4.5 minutes of daily vigorous exercise was linked to a 26-30% lower cancer mortality & ~34% lower cardiovascular mortality.
4.5 minutes.
Less time than you spend choosing between regular and organic apples.

Your health "Optimizations" don't matter. Organic or conventional apples? Grass-fed or grain fed? These "Optimizations" are a distraction. Let me explain why:

@JDVance @JDVance , absolutely.

[Mark D Edwards @minimalist_mark]

@JDVance Speaking as a Canadian who left and hesitates to return, this is spot on.

@BioLayne @biolayne this is pretty interesting. Seems the fly in the ointment for most people is "choosing wisely." It can be done, but....

[Mark D Edwards @minimalist_mark]

I can't think of a single thing in life that this doesn't apply to. Thanks for this, @tferriss

@BioLayne Frustration understood. Funny thing about humans, the big noise is always made by complainers and those who comfortably live with their confirmation bias. It's an easy place to inhabit. We who appreciate what you do may not voice it. But make no mistake, you make a difference

Cheat meals. They're killing your weight loss. Let's talk about the alternatives.

Quote from @jockowillink in his recent interview with @ChrisWillx
There's nothing useful I can add to this. Speaking as a coach, it all boils down to this if you're over 30.

Most guys fail their fitness goals because they aim for perfection.

The secret? Damage control.

➡️ Skip the all-or-nothing mindset
➡️ Make your worst days less bad
➡️ Stack small wins
That’s how to get lean & stay strong after 40.

@EndWokeness @benbankas does Olivia Chow better than she does.
