Flame Free Confession III: Even More Flame Free (Part 2)

From the general public?

Yes sir, far too much sadly from my experience.

I confess that, on days I don’t have to be physically present at work, I love the opportunity to have my favorite breakfast. Coffee and a quest bar. It’s so easy. More food comes quickly after, but not having to cook first thing in the morning is pretty rad.

I confess that, I’m proud of myself for helping my fiancee understand that she is a fan of soup. She hilariously has stated many times that ā€œI don’t want to drink my mealā€. A few hearty soups later and she’s excited when I bust out the crock pot.

I confess that, ham steak is my new go-to protein for soups. I’m fortunate to be able to buy my beef and pork, in bulk, from local farms. The beef is a super value all things considered. The pork, not so much, but it is noticeably leaner than the grocery store meat. It retains a lot of the flavor profile compared to grass vs grain fed beef. As a result of the bulk purchasing, we end up with MASSIVE ham steaks that are just not my cup of tea. Pain in the ass to cook, eat, and clean up after. Enter soup. Dice those bad boys up real small and they’re the perfect protein filler.

This made me laugh hard. I had a vision of you looking just like Wendler when everyone asks him if they can add this or change that. Accept in your case the question had the opposite intent.

ā€œCan I take your chaos and fix all strength work so I do the same every week with a fixed 4 week progression and can I fix the conditioning for the next 12 weeks so I know what chaos I will be doing on every dayā€ :joy::joy::joy:

I confess when I read about Quest bars tasting ā€œgoodā€, I become biased…

The first time I read that, I tried one, it did not go well. Just saying.

Anyone wanna help me make a silly decision for one of my favorite mobile games? (Dragon Ball Z Dokkan Battle)

I confess watching someone ask for help, get help, and then constantly ignore the help is frequently validating all decisions I’ve had regarding NEVER being a coach.

I genuinely don’t know how people like Thibs do it.

It’s that 5/3/1 guy isn’t it

It isn’t. He’s predictably frustrating: one of those guys that thinks they’ll save time by NOT reading a book, and instead spend 10x as much time trying to find all the answers that were in the book. That’s a silly kind of special lazy.

I’m talking about people that say they have a goal, say they’re dedicated to the goal, then constantly fail to do the things to reach that goal.

I haven’t ever really openly shit-talked crossfit (for a number of reasons, mostly because overall it has been a huge benefit to the lifting community, in general) but I’ve always held a bit of holier-than-thou attitude towards it in my head.

I’m thinking of joining one, at least for a trial phase, after my current program

I highly regret not studying linear algebra over break.

I still have these tendencies myself, but at least now after all that I have experienced, I always think twice before asking for help with issues I have.

(That post about improving my communication skills will not go to waste, already a plan in place)

This is big. SO often, we KNOW the answer: we just don’t like it. That’s so different than not knowing.

I’m really surprised you would even need it.

I want to do social network analysis => applied graph theory => applied linear algebra

It will be a piece of cake. I’ve been teaching kiddo equation modeling and solving through his bonus math word problems the teacher sends home.
