Muscle & Strength

Muscle & Strength Power Tips

Progress comes from recovery; sleep and post-workout nutrition are just as important as your training session

All humans should be able to do 7 fundamental movement patterns: squat, lunge, twist, bend, push, pull, stride (walk, jog, run)

Muscle mass determines brain mass (much strong correlation than body fat or weight)

Building your fitness begets independence, free thinking, and optimal decision making

True fitness (and faster progress) is equally about the neurological aspects as it is about the physical muscle

Tools and techniques like electrical muscle stimulation can build muscle, boost recovery, and stimulate muscle repair in 20 minutes flat

Working a muscle group 2-3 days per week is quite effective. Unless you’re a pro, the “bro split” probably isn’t optimal

You can maintain muscle by training 5-10 sets per week close to failure. Stop before you’re tired and ingrain the proper movement patterns for each exercise

VO2 max and muscular strength have among the highest correlations to your longevity

Your ability to jump and land also highly correlates to your longevity

Leverage the power of peptides and supplements to nourish your body sufficiently

Do not neglect hydration before, during, and after exercise

“Walking is man’s best medicine” — Hippocrates

Chase the feel-good effects of exercise, and you’ll gain the aesthetics as a side effect
