Out of nowhere, a way to mix it up at the gym

 

Greasing the neurological groove.

Thank you to Craig Nickoloff for the share yesterday.

The rule is simple. After each exercise, you should not feel tired, you should still feel refreshed.

Changed up the reps i normally do, but didn’t change the weight.

Not only physiologically stimulating, but also psychologically invigorating.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

Head North if you aren’t planning on running

One night (last night) here.

 

 

Wasn’t here to run the Disneyland Star Tours 5k, 10k, nor this morning’s half-marathon.

After downloading photos and writing five blogs, we changed hotels (Grand Californian wasn’t available last night), we headed north to Hollywood for the day.

While this blog is about our physical health, it’s helpful to remember that having “rest days” is part of the formula for wellness.

Know who you are, what turns you on

Artists who challenge the status quo.

We love inspiration. Underdogs. Courage. Rebels. Olympics.

This scene, a personal favorite, is 90 seconds. Steve Prefontaine is the only athlete, any sport, that Nike has immortalized in bronze. Donald Sutherland plays Pre’s coach. Pre’s coach was the co-founder of Nike, as well as the USA Track & Field Head Coach at the 1972 Munich Olympics.

 

 

Know who you are, what turns you on, and push your limits. Anything else is just chicken-sh!t.

18 days until it starts

Are you self-motivated?

No, seriously.

Do you talk to yourself?

Do you allow the long list of limitations to influence the height of your goals?

 

 

Stop it. Okay? Just stop.

January 1, 2015 is 18 days away (yes, this won’t post until March 23 – decided long ago to not let a unique posting schedule be a limitation.)

Who gives a crap if you’ve struggled your whole life?

Totally get it. Been there… and still…

And everyday after waking it’s back to the salt mines of kicking doubt and fear’s ass butt.
