You're not just aging, you're ascending!

How we view what is happening for us MAKES the difference!

May 5, 2025 at 12:23 PM
- How to have fuel yourself before, during, and after if necessary
- How to implement progressive overload
- How to manage recovery

There are quite a few elements, just start, and as you develop, each of these may become more important, usually as you hit a wall of some sort.

What is a Weekly Cut Rate?

Standard 0.5% of your Bodyweight per week.

That rate is manageable for most people.

More experienced can move faster.

When it is difficult, you can move slower!

Getting healthy

we find problems that

we have been ignoring, 

and that 

we are unaware of.

And dissolving the problems

becomes our pathway to health.

I go "off" my diet
I "miss" a workout

but I don't feel guilty

I "get back up"
I "go again"

Last year's success is this year's baseline!

I was delighted to fit into a 32 inch waste, and 
now that is normal.

2025 the reps will bring me to a new place!

It's exciting!
