Most Relevant Metrics for Health

-Resting Heart Rate (the lower the better generally)

-Bodycomposition (ratio of lean body mass to muscle)

-Bodyweight (contrary to fitness mythology, BMI Does matter. You are probably NOT the genetic outlier that contradicts this)
You improve your resting heart rate by doing...CARDIO.

Walking daily is an easy way to get Zone 1 activity in,

More rigorous Zone 2 work is done at a faster place

HIIT is something of a hack, but I firmly believe daily WALKING should be part of everyones lifestyle Image
When I say relevant, these are numbers Anyone can easily measure and manage themselves

Obviously you can get more in depth with bloodwork, but now you're getting tests ordered and need to know how to interpret

cernovich.com/blood-work-for…
Bodycomposition is Lean mass to fat mass

This is the infamous "whats your bodyfat?" question

You improve this number by...LIFTING WEIGHTS.

Im not going to waste tweets on why its "good" to be muscular.

Weak people die faster and are more fragile in general Image

The idea that a man must be "high value" to attract women is pure BS. Its cope

Women will be with loser men ALL the time. Confidence and being cocksman will keep women coming back, regardless of lacking everywhere else
Hard reality is most men live their lives as losers, and its not until they gain financial and professional success and FINALLY have some veracity and swagger that women respond to them positively

They ironically make the same mistake feminists make...
That Men must really care about their professional success and accolades.

"Women only want to fuck winners at the finish line!"

Eh, not quite bro, you just finally started walking around like you have balls after 30+ years & learned girls like confidence

HOW TO BULK PROPERLY

Let me preface,

Bulking CAN and DOES work, but only IF the right conditions are met

1) You need to be LEAN when you start. 8-10% bodyfat range

2) You need to bulk SLOWLY. Gaining 1lb a week. 4lbs a month.

1/5
3) You stop bulking once you get to the Mid Teens of bodyfat percentage. 15-17% bodyfat

4) You keep your weight in a holding pattern for a LONG TIME. 6 months minumum, up to 1-2 years even if you are SERIOUS about muscle gain

2/5
5) You MUST prioritize progressive Overload. You need to get as STRONG AS POSSIBLE at your heavier weight

6) After you have done the above, THEN you begin to "cut" and reach a leaner weight, with added muscle tissue and increased strength levels

3/5

We are sent into this world to develop our own personality –

to use such gifts as we have been given and to set an example to others by our courage, fortitude, sympathy, generosity and self-reliance...
Any state which controls the lives of the people and dictates where they shall live,
what work they shall do,
what they shall see, say, hear, read and think, thwarts the free development of personality, and is therefore EVIL...
It will be immensely difficult to break the stranglehold of the machine, but it can be done, little by little; the first step being the formation of secret groups of friends for free discussion...

"What do I read about?"

That this question is asked is telling

The American mind is Epistemologically bankrupt

"To think" is to follow a top down narrative given by someone else.

Everything must be reduced to topical subjects, bullet points, top 10 lists, listicles
"Thoughts?" is considered a question that can be asked.

Not how what when where why, just "thoughts".

Give me "thoughts".
Maybe its because my audience has gradually begin to skew younger, or because I have gotten older, but I continuously receive questions now in which the person asking, usually a young man, he does not KNOW how to ask a question.
