“Most of the time we feel tired not because we’ve done too much, but because we’ve done too little of what makes us come alive.” – Jim Kwik
We’re not going to pretend the hard times go away. And that we won’t need to do things that we’d rather not. We have commitments, obligations, and bills to pay. But when we find ourselves in a daily loop of non-stop “work”… we won’t feel like ourselves.
But it’s not the time we put in at work that causes this. It’s the time we don’t put in on the other things. Our passions. The reason why we get out of bed in the morning. Yet in the furious pace of our lives, we let it fall to the wayside because we need to get “back to work.”
The times where we are the most unhappy, are the times where we are the most untrue to ourselves. Redefine to ourselves what sets us on fire. What makes us come alive. And literally schedule it on your calendar as if it’s a life-saving doctors appointment. Because in truth… it is.

BARBELL MOVEMENTS
The barbell movements today are designed to be completed ideally unbroken
Use one weight for both lifts based off the more challenging movement – the push press
This should be a light-moderate load that you can complete for 21+ reps unbroken when fresh
The deadlift will feel relatively light compared to the push press
Note that there is no re-bend of the knees after extension in the push press
TOES TO BAR
Choose a number for toes to bar that you can complete ideally unbroken throughout the workout
If you’re on the fence about 7 unbroken reps, consider reducing the reps or chooseing a variation from “subs”
