Wish you well in whatever you decide to do!!

A monk,... haha

I felt like being poetic and insane at the same time, lol.

I'm gonna be starting a vegan diet, one that is normal and very easy on the body. It is totally void of all anti-oxidants and impurities and, right now, I'm trying to find out which vegetable or fruit has the most amount of protein in it.

What I said above, though, the level of depth I have of my own bodies limits and the nervous system and the body is quite true and I actually will do this and I know it will work.

I listen to my body and intuition and it speaks to me very clearly and it ALWAYS points me in the right direction. Really.
 
Of course there are, but, if I can reduce them to such a point as to be void of them - how much recovery and adaptation my entire physiology and psychology will be capable of, you think?

Have you ever tried such a thing?
 
Meh, just trying to see how much I can make this body adapt, is all...not going to flash it all over the place...I think I should delete that post...and I will...let's keep the conversation light.

Fish, I just became self-actualized tonight.......

and please edit out your post, some people, won't understand it.

I'd like to add: I been combining my knowledge of physiology, psychology, and adaption and came up with a crazy way to need only 3:30 hours of sleep per night all the while being full of energy the next morning...care to hear this? without side effects and without muscle atrophy, while getting stronger....etcetc
 
I'm off next week. I will be investing about a grand in a boot camp style arena that I'm going to use to train.

It will consist of 3 alleys that start with staircases that have pull up/chin ups bars and will follow with some coordination drills like tires and jump boxes. These alleys will end with a station for abs, chest and what ever wasn't hit by the alley. Once you are done with an alley you move on to the next. There will be tractor tires for flipping, sand bags for throwing, random drills, rope skipping, juggling, monkey bars, martial arts drills with MA sticks, stretching routines, etc...

For now I will concentrate on the most expensive part that that's building 6 sets of stair cases.

I'm done with gyms, isolations and whatnot. I truly hate those. They limit me and are time inefficient.
 
A little story today:

I don't think any of you know about my condition with my left ankle...I'll explain...

I have a chipped joint in the left ankle. This chip, or so I thought, caused me severe pain when putting a load on it. Basically, I was in pain all the time. Running/jogging/walking has been hurting me for 15 years. After seeing 7 doctors and doing about 20 follow ups I concluded that the pain was not the chipped bone for the mere fact that the pain I had was not present in the area where the chipped bone was.

I studied many things, all self-studied, things ranging from psychology to basic biology, human adaptions and even such things as stress, doubts, limiting beliefs, etc...

The pain I had in my left ankle was caused by two things. Stress and a bad Achilles tendon, I beleive. I have been doing a lot of meditation and other such things as doubt elimination and limiting belief elimination. In this process I managed to completely void myself of stress, literally. Negative thought patterns and any thinking that caused me internal stress has been mostly eliminated. It is nearly impossible for me to feel bad or negative now. This, is called enlightenment, it's not magic, but it's a damn nice thing. Merely, that I learned so many things regarding the human condition and life in general that I came to such conclusions that the only things that can truly stress us is our bodies and environments. Being mentally stressed, unless ill, is quite-literally impossible if one has the level of knowledge he needs to understand this. I'd like to point out it's not that much too...I plan on making a blog/website in the future to try and help people who wish to have such a thought process.

I am rambling now...point is after doing all of this I became highly intuitive. Intuition is, I consider, the highest form of intelligence on this planet. When you look within for answers, you ask your intuition and if you have enough knowledge you get a swift, concrete and valid answer. If you are stressed, highly doubtful about yourself, have limiting beliefs you can count this **** out completely because your thought process is so dragged down by these things that it slows you down, more than I ever thought possible. One morning I got up and started thinking with this featherweight thought process and came to conclusions with my ankle and stress manifestations and such things. After doing this (In my won bed before getting up) things became clearer regarding my ankle. You can say that I had limiting beliefs and doubts in regard to it. And that I know how to eliminate such things and did with my ankle.

All this to say: The pain in my ankle is still there but I do not have it anymore because of a simple load. I can sprint. I can job. And it's all pain free now. One morning I got up, did my usual "test my ankle" routine and went about my things. As I went about my things I stopped and was curious: "Why did I just not notice my ankle is fine just now?" The answer was, because it is fine. You thought your ankle was debilitating you so hard that it did. I conditioned myself over 15 god damn years to beleive that my ankle was somehow handicapped and it was all bull****. LOL

I started testing it. Slamming my entire weight on it. I started being agitated. Happy. Optimistic.

"Is this real?"

A reminder> I have been suffering because of this for over 15 years. I always told myself: "Man if I could use my damn foot, I'd run around the entire globe." Constant pain for 15 years and I get up and bam it's gone.

So, I started to turn my room upside down in a hurry to find some loose clothes to put on to give this god damn pain in the ass ankle a test drive. I'm not talking about a little walk or jog here people, I'm talking about a 10 second 100M dash intense enough to make me have the biggest asthma attack I've had in my life.

As I got dressed, I cried in tears: "Is this real? Can I finally run?" I was shaking so hard and was barely able to talk. As I got outside, I saw my father sitting at the summer table and told him: My ankle doesn't hurt anymore. He didn't seem to care much but his gf did. Then, I got my god damn running shoes on and tightened the laces firmly. I lined myself up with the farthest reach in the 2 acre yard my father has and told my soul to find it's way in my legs and show me what the **** is all this running about.

People, I ran so fast that I nearly swallowed a dozen flies. I kept going. I ran back and forth once with all the might of my quads, hams and upper body and when I ran out of yard to run I stopped and had an asthma attack. It was the most beautiful asthma attack I've ever had. I actually had a valid reason to have one now. I can run. I'm free. Faster than the wind. :D

I sprinted so hard, though, that my legs we're sore for about a week. When they got better I went for a 6KM jog/walk. It's a walk/job because my lungs can't keep up. My asthma has diminshed the adaptations I should have gotten in all my life and now I must make up for it with lots of cardio. At one point, I know that my lungs will become as efficient as normal lungs. All I need to do is make them condition to process large amount of breathing air.

I'll do this with jog/walk intervals. When I'm ready it will be a Job/Sprint interval.

In any case, my ankle is fixed now. Next thing to fix: The lungs.

After doing this test drive sprint and job/walk interval I already feel much lighter on my feet. It's pretty amazing how the human can adapt to such hardships.
 
Received a shipment of cylinders today.

The reception of this order is done as such:

Hold 4-5 feet tall gas cylinders on a 60ish degree angle and roll two at a time one in front of the other by twisting the caps and pushing them with my feet. These cylinders weigh about 100-200lbs each. Basically, I manipulate 2 objects totaling 200-400 pounds for 30mins to an hour. I push and roll these for about 20 feet, 2 at a time, no breaks, no stops. This works out everything. Didn't break a sweat. And got a good endorphin high, as always, from this. God I love endorphins. They make you so damn calm. A meteor could be falling right on you and while you'd be looking at it you'd be like: "Oh look, a meteor is coming for me." And you'd just step out of the way at the last minute with a calm walk.

Endorphins....yummy.

I need to make a video of me doing this. I know I'm bragging...but this is something that requires good hand-eye coordination and physical strength. I need to find a video of this!
 
I got myself an SC2 beta key yesterday. I'll be on my ass a lot playing this game - therefore, I need to compensate by working out.

I have huge tractor tire in our yard. Weighs about 150lbs, I do tire flips with it. Box jumps. Decline push ups. I can basically hit my entire body with this thing and I will. It's about the most effective training toll I've ever possessed.

Before I dive into this game tonight I'll do the following workout with it:

Tire flips 3xfail
Box jumps 3x15
Delcine push ups 3x15
Crunches 2xfail
Leg raises 2xfail
Decline planks 1x each side (this one ought to suck. I hate planks enough already and I'm going to add to them by going decline.)


The tire flip is basically a deadlift, when the tire is up straight I push it ahead of me as fast and as powerfully as I can so it activates my pecs and every stabilizer in my body, basically. when i lift the tire, I lift it by putting my palms underneath it and palms facing up, this movement acts as a curl as well. TBH, I can't find a muscle that this tire flip doesn't activate...hmmm.

I will do some 100M sprints after...I'll get my long range yard tape and get my dad to time me. Need to see how fast I am. Now that i think of it, I might just film it too...

Did a couple of sets of tire flips here and there this weekend, also, I got a StarCraft 2 Beta key. This game is my favorite game of all time. I didn't lose my touch either. The game is faster and so much more improved from the first.

I will be doing push ups/abs and whatnot every 5 or so games when I play sc2. It ought to make up and get me in shape pretty fast.

I have started doing some hand-eye coordination exercises. Things like juggling with 3+ balls and some martial arts stick routines I used to do in MA. Took me about 5 minutes to master 3 balls - going to keep doing it until it becomes as easy as juggling with 2 balls...and will keep adding them until I can't keep up. Then I'll start with things like bowling pins or something - maybe chainsaws :)

I salute you for doing tire flips. I have some grand memories from the end of 2008 when a group in my class for Strength and Conditioning decided to give us a Strongman session. Oh how I failed at tire flips :)
 
Hey Eric, hows it going???
