Before We Begin: The Principle of Progressive Overload

Is The Last of Us Part 2 really as woke as people say it is?

Cold showers suck. I’ve taken them (almost) everyday for nearly 6 years and they don’t suck any less today than they did when I started.

It’s simply learning to be comfortable doing things you don’t want to do.

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

How did the trans issue metastasize within just a decade from being a question of kindness and tolerance to a tiny minority to convulsing a whole society?

In the same way that you can’t go to the gym, deadlift 225 lbs. for 5 reps one week and then expect to lift 405 lbs. for 5 reps the next week, you can’t expect to just wake up one day and be as mentally strong

Mental

Seriously.

The majority of recruits quit. Those who don’t leave the evolution knowing that they can do ANYTHING they set their minds to.

Do 21 pushups instead of 20.

One of the HARDEST thing you can do to build your mental

Plain and simple.

Challenge yourself to do something seemingly impossible for a short amount of time and you will walk away with more mental toughness than you’ve ever had before.

7. Go Through Hell Week

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

But anytime you’re doing an exercise where you can safely push yourself, go for just ONE more rep than you’re comfortable doing.
