I confess that I seem to have lost the mental ability to do long cardio sessions. I used to run for hours, now I call it after 20min…

I don’t discriminate but stock up on whichever brands Costco sells
I confess I am quite proud of the fact all of my blood sugar checks have been in range this week while I am at my in-laws without my normal meal preparation and foods.
I also confess it was low enough that I was able to eat a piece of my grandmother-in-law’s awesome peanut brittle.
Also found this little gem from the annual posting of the “Merry Christmas, Bob” article:
- "If you do it long enough, there’s even enlightenment. Sometimes, the answers to questions you didn’t even know you had are sitting there on those rubber mats, disguised as iron plates and bent bars.”*

I was going to take a picture of my Christmas Dinner but then I looked down again and half of it was gone.

IMO, the set of doctors and the set of pussies are disjoint
I confess I was surprised by this, but hey, it’s Dan John:

I confess I am not going out to buy food I want (but don’t need) because it’s been freezing or below temp wise all day, and I am too lazy to scrape ice/frozen snow off my car.

I think he’s onto something when he talks about doing loaded carries and hill/stadium sprints for doing weighted, single-leg exercises.

Remember context is important there. He’s talking about how it impacts performance as an athlete, which i suspect most on these boards aren’t.
I confess I really dislike cooking eggs for my dad and little bro
They like their eggs fully cooked. It’s a travesty
Dang, this is gold

Having seen a ton of Dan’s podcasts, I’m not surprised but I am delighted.
More prowlers and fewer lunges would make the world a better place.

I confess that…
Someone contacted me on another website asking if I could help them understand a training program. What they linked me to was a pirated copy of one of John Meadow’s programs. I REALLY should have torn into this dude for robbing from the deceased, especially such an upstanding figure as John. I ended up just staying I couldn’t help him. …but things like this confirm my misanthropy.
Not only do I have my kid putting away “bison chopped steaks”, but I paired it with an air fried hashbrown last night and some corn to make the most American meal possible: steak, potatoes and corn. It’s no small coincidence that the Cowboys had a crushing victory afterwards. We’ve taken to making a “weekly sacrifice” on Sundays, and this seems to be the best offer so far.
I am pretty sure I’m not going to do any real work this week.

One guy at work made fun of me for spending a lot on a couple of John’s programs but the amount of info he gave me for free on YouTube was well worth the price in my mind.
I am starting to join you in your misanthropy.

I’ve bought SO many programs I have no intention of running just to throw money at dudes that are putting out good stuff. You vote with your dollar.

100%. There’s a reason I’ve bought every book wendlers put out, and some of Alsruhe’s program, despite being able to find pirated versions of all of it. If you want these awesome resources to still be available, someone’s gotta support em

I strayed off my usual training logs that I visit again and am as always amazed at the questions some people ask. This stuff was never that difficult before someone invented the internet. Part of me wants to give advice but another part of me thinks it is most likely a complete waste of time. I seem to be getting grumpy as well as older !!
