I’m on a caffeine tolerance reset (10 days no caffeine) and am always surprised by how sleepy I am when I get off caffeine Some clarifications here is that sleepy is not the same as tired Tired is a subjective feeling, sleepy is the physiological drive for sleep Sleepiness is driven by a factor of urge to sleep (adenosine) and sleep debt (how many hours behind on sleep you are) I’m surprised at the sleepiness because I know I don’t have any sleep debt yet coming off the caffeine I pretty much need an hour nap around mid-day So I’ve got a theory that consistent caffeine use can fry your adenosine receptors not only just making you tired but actually forces you to need more sleep in the days it takes them to re-acclimatize Which is crazy because that would mean the more you abuse caffeine the more sleep you need when you stop - entrenching the negative feedback cycle of using it One reason I do these resets cause they’re so important to holistic health and wellness

I used to get upset when I hired independent contractors for work and they made mistakes and weren’t detail oriented so I had to go through and double check every piece of their work Like this is your job bro can’t you get it right?? But I’ve legit had to do it for every single one so now I just accept it They are kinda lazy and kinda good at their jobs, but in order to really get a good result you’ve got to coddle and baby and nudge and encourage them every step of the way No one cares about your business the way you care about your business. Just the way it is. Act accordingly instead of complaining about it Re: finding out the people who built all my emails didn’t bother to double check that every link was pointed to the right page 🤦‍♂️

One AI realization that’s become painfully clear is that there’s been no better time to be a solopreneur than now Last year I paid thousands of $$ for website & graphic design… Today I just made 2 landing pages and a bunch of materials using Claude, GPT, Canva, and Replo’s builder assistant

Ok gang - I need yall to be extroverted for a second. When I talk about my Focus+ product, what are your initial reactions? What’s the perception you receive? What’s the vibe you get? What’s your overall feeling on what I’m selling? What’s the reasons you do or do not believe this product is effective? What are the reasons that you don’t want to buy it or think it can’t help you? I value the FC community opinions and so plz don’t feel a need to only give me positive stuff. I’m actively seeking out how I can improve my messaging but I need your help Thanks in advance 🙏

I created the most powerful all-natural nootropic on the market. No caffeine. No stimulants. No sugar. No bullshit. Just 8 cognitively enhancing ingredients derived from plants and mushrooms. Taken once increases focus and awareness for up to 5 hours. Taken for 20 days consecutively can improve recall, mood, and eliminate brain fog. Try it and see for yourself Www.feelnoetic.com

You’ll definitely get stronger as overall fitness improves, but will plateau after around 2 months or so HIIT 5x/wk is too much for anyone IMO, without any rest days you’re not giving muscles opportunity to recover which will prevent you from lifting heavier (neg cycle) U can go down to 3x / week with day off in between to counter some of that But if you’re trying to optimize for strength as a variable then resistance training should be the modality instead of HIIT

The tl:dr (which if ur here you probably read) is: - train core first in the workout - include isometric and flexion exercises both for the rectus abdominal and obliques - lift heavy using exercises that require a ton of bracing - use principles of progressive overload, you should be doing more every time - don’t train abs every day, like any other muscle hit it hard 1 day and give it 24-48 hours rest before hitting it again Lately I’ve really enjoyed training core for about 40minutes prior to my conditioning It doesn’t take away from my lifting days and it allows me the specific block to train them first in the workout without affecting anything that comes after it Good luck soldiers

If you’re serious about strengthening your core and building visible abs - you need to stop training them at the end of your workout. The abdominals are like any other muscle, in order to be trained effectively they need to be stressed with various amounts of resistance, endurance, and repetitions. You probably do a round of core at the end of the workout - here’s why holding your back: The core is unique in that in almost every exercise (lower or upper body) - the abdominals are active in bracing the spine. There is no exercise you’re not using your core. They are the first muscles to suffer from fatigue throughout the workout. When you wait till the end to train them, they’re already shot and you’ve got minimal effectiveness The same way you wouldn’t train triceps before doing chest, your core-focused days should have abs at the BEGINNING of the workout, where you have the most energy available and they are the least fatigued Cont…

But this also means you need to be training them a hell of a lot harder than 3 sets of planks and sit ups. That’s fake hard work. Expand your exercise variety with a mix of isometric holds (planks work here), flexion movements (hanging knee raises, reverse crunches, dragon poles) Don’t forget about the obliques too - they are both larger and more powerful than the 6-pack ab rectus abdominis you normally think of Lateral crunches, side planks with hip dip, woodchops, pallof presses, and suitcase Carrie’s w/ March are all killer overall ab exercises I saved the best for last. If you really want rock-solid abs you need to be lifting heavy compound movements that require abdominal bracing Squats, deadlifts, RDL’s, bench press, bent over rows This is why cross fitters have the turtle shell abs - the extreme amounts of bracing they are forced to do train the abs better than any isolated exercise ever could

Yup, spot on. He falls into the category of “fake hard workers”. The people who work hard at their strengths and avoid strengthening their weaknesses. That archetype often has a confidence/cockiness that veils extreme insecurity. Likely had some early signs of success and then sputtered out. This kids going nowhere if his attitude doesn’t change

Years ago I would have tried to explain this all to him, but my experience tells me it falls on deaf ears Kids think they know it all, and the fact that this doctor just said rest which is extremely unhelpful doesn’t help my case since I’m not a doctor obviously Gotta vent here because watching someone do the wrong things when they could be doing the right things frustrates the hell out of me

Sigh, sometimes it’s extremely difficult trying to help people that don’t want to be helped This is a 15 y.o. junior golfer, he’s good, but can’t compete well with his peers because he’s undersized and has no special abilities or talent. He’s just a -good- golfer Hurt his elbow last week. Never scheduled a session to get it evaluated by me I follow up today, and this is what he says… Like bro - my entire job is to do all the little things that a doctor doesn’t know about in order to rehabilitate injuries and help get you back to optimal performance as quick as possible. I’ve done it for the best players in the world in the NBA and NFL for almost as long as you’ve been alive. And your “boy who’s a doctor” just tells you to rest… ok. Good luck with that. He’s gonna call me in a month or two ready to train and then find out that just resting caused limitations and in other parts of his body (probably shoulder) all while losing time he could’ve been rehabbing

Service business is amazing cause people can refer you thousands of $ of business just from a friendly conversation Met a former pro tennis player at the gym, she saw me doing a treatment session and we chatted for a bit She told me she’s been looking for a quality physiotherapist cause a lot of her clients were always asking her We exchange contacts and less than a week later I get a message from someone she referred who just booked their first session for an ankle rehab Gonna make sure she gets a few comped sessions next time I see her
