For the past month I've been doing 2 minute bar hangs and my life will never be the same.

This is what happens to your body when you hang every day: Image
1. Improved Posture

Don't want to look like a croissant? Bar hangs help strengthen & mobilize your upper body.

They also provide a constant stretch on the shoulders, back arms & lats.

This helps reverse upper body posture defects that come from sitting for too long.
2. Increased Grip Strength

The grip of your hand supports your weight.

A good grip improves your performance across all exercises, like pull-ups, rows, deadlifts...anything requiring a strong grip.

It also makes daily activities easier, such as handshakes and opening jars.

This 3 minute thread will save you 10+ years of your life: Image
The average person spends 4-5 hours a day on their phone.

If they did this from the ages of 20 to 80 they would have spent a total of 10+ years of their lives on a screen.

Phones are a great invention but they're more toxic than you think.

That's not even the worst part...
Chronic phone overuse has been shown to change your brain chemistry.

It affects GABA production where disturbances can be a warning sign of addiction.

It triggers dopamine by giving it a short-term boost that leads to a letdown, which causes the brain to want more. Image

This is Vincent Dransfield.

He's 110 years old, still drives a car, walks up stairs, and has less health issues than his grandchildren.

He also doesn't workout, eats burgers, and drinks alcohol on occasion.

Here are his secrets to longevity: Image
Vincent is considered to be a supercentenarian, which is a human who is 110 years or older.

Only 1 out of every 1000 centenarians are supercentenarians.

Only 10% of them are men.

What makes Vincent special is that he's still living independently. Image
Lesson #1 - It's not just about quantity. It's about quality.

Vincent still has a fit mind & body

He can still drive his car & walk up & down stairs without help.

Aside from achy knees & other minor issues, he's lived a long life while being both mentally & physically healthy. Image

Harsh truths I know at 45 I wish I knew at 25:

1. You spend life with one person, which is you. If you don't like yourself, you will have an issue.

2. Growth is painful. Staying in the same spot as last year is even more painful.
3. You can't help someone who doesn't want to be helped.

4. People who tend to hate on others on social media are usually projecting their insecurities.

5. People you admire in life carry the traits you have inside but are too scared to bring out.
6. To achieve a goal you've never achieved you need to change into a person you've never been before.

7. As you grow you will lose friends & find new ones. No one grows at the same rate. It is what it is.

8. Your parents did more with less. Give them the respect they deserve.
