Live and let live, body

Live and let live.

Kinda like accepting.

People will live differently than you.

People will live healthier than you.

People will live less healthy than you.

People will like how you pursue physical vibrancy.

People will dislike how you pursue physical vibrancy.

Through it all, remember this mantra…

Live and let live.

Insight: This is what you want others to do for you as well.

Live and learn, body

boy on pogo stick
Learned a lot from falling off the pogo stick. Mostly, what to do more of and what to do less of.

Live and learn.

Wisdom comes from experience and experience comes from making mistakes.

Let’s make “SYDK” a category, body

Dear Son, the blog category ‘dear son’ is on all five blog websites.

What you probably don’t know is that everything i write could start with, “Dear Son,”.

Everything.

Small example…

Dear Son, you don’t remember me being unfit. What really happened though is after you were born i committed to getting and staying physically vibrant. The commitment’s ‘streak’ is closer to 30 years than 20.

And it was especially challenging in the moments and the years when i was tempted to pause, or worse, quit.

But…

Never paused.

Never quit.

From this was born, “Find a million ways to stay motivated.”

Shit you didn’t know, body

Our son laughing out loud, maybe 20 years ago. His face is what most adults look like when you tell them (in your 40’s, 50′, 60’s) that you’re training like an athlete.

Dear Son,

Shit you didn’t know…

How could you?

You were just a kid.

What you didn’t know is…

How being your dad inspired and guided everything i did (and why i did it)…

Like getting and staying healthy even with a new career (speaker), frequent travel, and a history of health peaks and valleys. Because when i started at Disney Institute at 40, it was the same year i received a health ‘wake-up call’.

You’ll never recall me being unfit. Why? Because i began a physical vibrancy journey that’s now 26 years old and counting.

Sell me on how, body

Lane 8 (this blog’s URL) is about the paradox of the worst lane and a lifetime of fitness.
an internet quote about measurement
How do i measure vibrancy? With results.

Sell me on how you sit so much.

Sell me on how processed foods and sugar is a longterm asset.

Sell me on how regular movement is not feasible for you.

Sell me on how a lifetime of irregular sleep benefits you.

Sell me on how low you set your physical vibrancy standards and goals.
