Show up meditation
Meditate and ask what one action you can take now that's good for your body.
Then meditate on being happy with your body as it is now.
Peak experiences are often “unhealthy”
When you build health, you move through these levels:
- Unhealthy
- Get healthy > Healthy but fragile
- Get fit > Healthy and robust
When you're at level 3, you can have less sleep and your crispy chili chicken once in a while and still survive.
Enjoy food with flexibility: strength training and intermittent fasting.
Clear out toxins: HIIT, sauna, breathwork.
Recover from undersleeping: mindfulness.
Enjoy adventures: functional training.
Fitness looks radically different for each person
Some bodies are made for aesthetics, some for CNS balance, some for functionality.
9% body fat is a golden amount for men.
Your natural state is one of the reasons to focus on High-Efficiency fitness: for some goals you just have to work too hard and it's not worth it.
Do a DNA test to understand your body traits.
Choose fitness goals according to least resistance. You need to try different routines to start understanding this.
Human connection is the trump card
Sense of community has a huge huge effect on your health.
Is your relationship with your body improving or impairing your relationship with others?
Mastery is in the fundamentals
Basically all the transformation happens with things we already know.

Assess your fundamentals once a quarter.
Hire a coach to help you keep this on track
Transforming the body is about a relationship
Listen to your body. Talk with it.
