Less, please

Less is more.

Less setbacks.

Less limits.

Less trepidation.

Less slothfulness.

Less excuses.

Less weight.

What physical pain

thermometer
Day four with a fever. Thought it would be over in 24-72 hours.
home covid test
Because we had an extra (free) Covid test, why not test? Negative.
medical referral sheet
Went to the Walk-In side of my primary care physician at Windermere Medical Center. The receptionist told me i am no longer a patient there. She did offer a $167 office visit plus retail costs for any tests. Never thought of patients as commodities until now.
urgent care building
Took the closet referral from the photo above.
urgent care menu of services
One of my biggest clients is part of HCA. If you zoom in on the third line from the top, you see HCA. Had never heard of HCA until they bought my client’s Nursing College a couple years ago.
family holding a koala
This was supposed to be a Christmas present the day before. But i received it while bedridden on December 26. Had made a Disney’s Animal Kingdom reservation for Dec 26, optimistic my “cold” would be done.

What physical pain do you want in your life?

i’ll gladly take the pain of continuously doing the reps to have a body that thrives on moving, nutrition, and rest. Carving out time. Making sound choices versus easy ones with food and sleep.

What pain do you want to avoid?

i want to avoid the pain that stems from a lack of consistent effort to do the reps. The slothful, sedentary lifestyle habits that no one says enhances your present and longterm physical vibrancy.

Happy winter 2024, body

Winter began yesterday. Cold days. Short daylight hours. Let’s think about how we traditionally spend our winters…

Ever think of yourself as a personal trainer?

If yes, why?

If no, why?

Let’s assume a few things:

  1. Personal trainers are instructors
  2. Personal trainers are hopeful
  3. Working without a personal trainer is traditional
  4. Working without a personal trainer puts it all on you

We become what we do, what we eat, and how we rest.

Intentionally or unintentionally.

Can you imagine the difference between the two approaches?

Overfocusing with your body

Steve Prefontaine's rock with man kneeling beside it
Photo: Pre’s Rock. He died May 30, 1975 when his car crashed here. Steve Prefontaine is the only athlete (ever) to be memorialized in bronze by Nike. University of Oregon is home to Hayward Field. More Track and Field National Championships and Olympic Trials have been held here than anywhere else. Track Town, USA.

Over-focusing has infinite opportunity.

Anything. Anywhere. Anytime.

With cardio.

With strength.

With sleep.

With nutrition.

With flexibility.

With core.

With motivation.

With the body’s interconnectedness between mind, spirit, work, and home.
