Ancient Guy FitnessRefuse to ever swallow contentESPECIALLY refuse to ever just swallow something that makes you comfortable ... if it reaffirms or confirms what you believed before, it is bad ... informational comfort is used to sell you ideas and products that make you dependent and less than vigilant. You must wake every day and HUNT for the truth ... the truth will NEVER show up in old things that reassure you.2022-03-2204 minAncient Guy FitnessCelebrities drive the extinction of humanityIt's up to you.2022-03-1101 minAncient Guy FitnessYou don't need to be an inbred moronExplore IDEAS ... travel in the virtual realm without traveling ... to explore more ideas.2022-03-0704 minAncient Guy FitnessWhen You BELIEVE In Things You Don't Understand, You WILL SufferUnderstand your health.

A HINT👍 Failure to use your bodyweight throughout the entire day, using those giant thigh, butt and core muscle groups of yours to continually dispose of blood glucose with CONTINUAL, ALL DAY LONG load-bearing exercise will predispose to things like hyperinsulinemia AND West Nile and/or Lyme diseas AND chiropractor visits AND knee/hip replacement surgeries AND greater likelihood of falling in old age. 👌2022-02-2202 minAncient Guy FitnessWhat is your UNIQUE objective?What is your life about?

RETIRE!2020-05-3116 minAncient Guy FitnessWealth is wasted on unhealthy, sick people who age badly, atrophy, stop contributing, resist changeAffluence always produces deleterious consequences because of the tendency for the complainers who blame others for their inactivity and refusal to change, to adapt and produce under different circumstances.2020-05-2607 minAncient Guy FitnessThe next four or five decades ...

Don't imagine that you're so entitled that you get to claim that these are something like "end times." Your ancestors lived, fought and died in times that were significantly worse.

Ideas matter. QUICKLY. A game-changing idea doesn't require a CV. Or someone to take credit for it. Patents, awards, prestigious prizes, eg Nobel, Pulitzer, etc. are for teacher's pets and teacher's pets wannabes ... legitimate ideas don't take prisoners.2020-03-0302 minAncient Guy FitnessUnexamined assumptions are deadlyThe habitual, deeply institutionalized, completely unexamined assumptions we make are the most deadly thing in our environment ... bad assumptions and unexamined habits kill more people every single minute that any other cause of death.

Indulging your addiction will make it worse, give it more power and ... maybe your addiction will define your entire existence, if you quit on quitting the addiction. You will always be an addict ... but you can choose whether your existence is about recovery or indulgence.2020-02-1604 min
Ancient Guy FitnessFitness demands relentlessly REMOVING the unnecessaryWe should constantly work at breaking the bad habits of being ourselves...in order to have a chance to find optimality, we must stop wasting our time doing things because of unexamined path dependency ... doing things just because we are prickly and defensive about questioning our assumptions is FAT ... it is past the time when we should remove the excess. Remove it now and don't look back -- we aren't going that way.2020-02-1403 minAncient Guy FitnessStop thinking like an addict to affluence...think like an ancient guy.Develop the powers of self control. Tame the monkey mind. Prayers should not be requests, at most not for more than immediate necessities, eg our daily food, and for help with our ability to forgive others and letting go. Meditation discipline is an example of ancient guy mental fitness ... it's not about the monkey mind demanding that we do something or stay busy for the sake of staying too busy to think. Mental fitness is about being ready and able to think about massively weighty things that the merely busy cannot begin to contemplate.2020-02-1205 minAncient Guy FitnessThe Jordan B Peterson experienceStudy success. Study ALL of it ... every last drop of it. Learn how the successful get up from failure and channel the experience into a new dimension of success. In other words, learn as much as you possibly can from the failures of others, particularly from the successful who, stumble and fall ... so that you may learn even more about preventing failures and also so that you are ready to get up, go forward and learn from your own inevitable future failures.2020-02-1105 minAncient Guy FitnessPay more attention to boosting your overall immunity to disease.Coronavirus is 10X to 100X more lethal if you are exposed to it than flu is. You don't want flu, but you REALLY. REALLY don't want coronavirus. You are probably healthy and fit enough to take on the unknown unknowns that you encounter but you should limit your exposure to multiple threats simultaneously ... the limiting of exposure to hurtful attacks on your immune system includes the additional threat induced by the dysbiotic shock to your microflora and immune system induced by getting vaccinated for flu strains -- strains that you wouldn't otherwise be threatened by in a simultaneous multi-threat attack...2020-02-1009 minAncient Guy FitnessTry new things...try podcasting with the Anvhor.FM platformAfter you get some experience, you can improve the product...with a Zoom H6 and a REAPER digital audio workstation ... but the KEY thing is to just get started and to learn as rapidly as possible ... but if you're an old clown, stuck in your ways ... you have to try new scary things to get your mind out of its calcified, hardened, secure comfort zone ... the most important thing is to JUST GET STARTED .... in order to stay alive, you have to fail and get good at using failures to learn from.2020-02-0905 minAncient Guy FitnessFitness is about what you take awayBreaking the bad habits of being yourself is not going to be about swallowing more shit, buying more stuff or deluding yourself with fancier ideas ... fitness is primarily a matter of removal, cleansing and purification WITHOUT inducing vomiting, taking laxatives or piping an expensive enema up your rookter ... breaking the bad habits of being yourself is about what you take away. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claude_L%C3%A9vi-Strauss?wprov=sfla12020-02-0803 minAncient Guy FitnessWhat I learned from a fitness tracker ... and the fitness tracker industry.The profit margins on fitness trackers is beyond obscene ... those margins are so severe that the margins have spawned the rise of entire companies and distribution channels selling EXCELLENTLY reliable devices for $15-20 in the US, even less in value-conscious countries like Mexico. You cannot get fit by any form of virtue signalling...you already know what you must do, if you just stop and THINK ... rather than buying a damned device. You cannot consume your way to fitness; it's not about what tasty thing you show off or swallow -- fitness is about what you take away, what you...2020-02-0713 minAncient Guy FitnessSo you have just found out that your life is only a simulation...be GRATEFUL! Love your Simulator!!!The pain, death suffering are as real as anything else, but religous wars and misunderstandings are nothing other matter of symbolic interpretation, human objects, words and meaning, terminology, definitions ... one person's Simulator is another person's God ... you do not know the nature of God. You don't even really know what words are orher than what you have imperfectly learned in your imperfect life. Without the Simulator giving you your simulated Life, you have less than nothing, ie you don't even have the beginning of a clue of what the [simulated] word 'nothing' might mean.2020-02-0603 minAncient Guy FitnessYou are the easiest one to fool with your own bad reasoning, bad informationUnderstand something about options and uncertainty ... it's not only about what can go wrong, but how rapidly the shift comes and the payoff changes as the underlying factors driving the payoff change ... not just the price of the asset but the deltas, gammas, thetas, vegas ... MOSTLY you must be extremely wary of believing that you are right ... the underlying factors are changing that will make static, passively-evaluated position wrong.2020-02-0605 minAncient Guy FitnessIowa caucus FAIL ... why don't we break old. Inbred, backassward, damaging habits of being ourselvesPath dependency KILLS. When we settle for inertia become this is the stupid, backward way that we have done it...we DESERVE to afflicted with cancer or some neurodegenerative disease and to rapidly die. We DESERVE death for clinging to stupidity, error and SIN.2020-02-0512 minAncient Guy FitnessAvoid Ownership PrisonPractice the most extreme form of Extreme Ownership. Give everything away and start over. It's scary ... too scary for most to contemplate, but you will learn that doing so fosters excellent all-around fitness of the body, mind and spirit. If you can push on through to the other side, you find it infinitely satisfying to completely OWN problems, to enjoy the fight, to embrace the suck of training for the war ... but if you don't want to be an old idiot tethered to the ball and chain you thought was so cool, you have avoid Ownership Prison ... instead break the...2020-02-0406 minAncient Guy FitnessFrom 50-30-20 to 50-0-50 to 0-0-100Budget so that you can invest. Change your preferences away from consumption to find greater enjoyment from the journey itself and simply being more fit and more productive. Then work at being less needy, so that you can drive your investment toward 100% of your income.2020-02-0411 minAncient Guy FitnessChange course AWAY from lack of awareness OR bad habits OR lowest-common-denominator thinking.Situational awareness must be dynamic; you have to be comfortable constantly improving information and questioning your assumptions. As with driving, you use the rear-view-mirror ONLY to calibrate your steering adjustments and updateyourawareness of what is approaching from the side ... otherwise, don't look back -- you don't have to about someone hitting you from behind as long as you are not a stationary but driving forward.2020-02-0205 minAncient Guy FitnessGimme something DIFFERENT!If you work in the realm of data science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, natural language processing... perhaps you develop sophisticated recommendation engines ...you're doing it wrong -- we need to talk. I don't want to be spoofed your homogenized schlock ... gimme something DIFFERENT!!!2020-02-0104 minAncient Guy FitnessTHINK about why the interest rate on long-term capital is lower than ever?Of course, demand for long-term debt capital is extremely or almost nonexistent amongst those who actually have a plan to repay ... because people who doing things, like starting new ventures, do not need much or any capital, ie needing big money is a sign that the guy asking for money refuses to exercise or work or scrounge unless there's a budget for vacations in London OR the cupboard's full of "heart-healthy low-fat" Hostess Hohos. https://twitter.com/zerohedge/status/1223283714676924416?s=092020-01-3107 minAncient Guy FitnessWHY am I doing that?Break the habit of being yourself. Read Dr Joe Dispenza's work or listen to audiobook ... you are your habits...BREAK the bad habits of being yourself. You are the person who needs to get a night's rest or maybe take a nap. You are the person who needs to be hydrated or exercise more. You are what you eat; you are what you consume; you are what you have consistently hypnotized yourself to be [partly, by wasting effort on why others do what they do].2020-01-3103 minAncient Guy FitnessThe value of information is proportional to how much it discomforts you and changes your course.Do NOT settle for being comfortable or reaffirmed or uplifted ... for being told what you want to hear. Seek out LEGITIMATELY good information that directs you back to the best path. Instead of being merely entertained or distracted with the latest shiny crap, either get some exercise or lay down and get some sleep.2020-01-3005 minAncient Guy FitnessDon't exchange body fluids with the bloodletters.FIRST, do no harm! Look at the BIG Picture, look at the tiniest details, look at the distant past, look at first principles but before you open a vein, consider what happens if you don't listen to the experts. FIRST, do no harm.2020-01-2913 minAncient Guy FitnessThink about why the finite quality of Life makes it infinitely valuable.The #nCoV2019 coronavirus probably will kill you...but something that you don't for your own pleasure or affirmation WILL almost certainly kill you. It's just quantum mechanics, man!2020-01-2807 minAncient Guy FitnessLook for examples of humility, growth humor, integrity, intellect and continued, consistent GROWTHYou don't need to be perfect or ready for prime time...you need to work at it and GET BETTER. Every.Single.Day. If you need an example--study and follow Joe Rogan's example ... OR continue being an arrogant, superior know-it-all and see how that works out for you. There are almost 8 BILLION people on our plant -- instead of coveting your neighbor's property or being satisfied with the non-achievers passively watching television or films, reach out and look and find the 1% of 1% of 1% of 1% WORTHY of imitation.2020-01-2808 minAncient Guy FitnessAnd THEN what?Fitness is partly about keeping your sense of humor, embracing the suck, impressing the right people ... but MOSTLY it's about looking at the road ahead and being READY for what comes next...you have to develop the ability to always have an answer for The Big Question ... and THEN what?2020-01-2706 minAncient Guy FitnessBalance your diet...add jiujitsu, sculpture, botany, mathematics, physics ... and maybe proteinStop accepting advice from people who don't understand quantum mechanics or spend time on their mats rolling or accept the necessity for distributed defense ... half of a clue is worse than no clue at all. If you trust the experts, you will end swallowing low-fat whole-grain fair-trade gluten-free Hostess Ho-Hos or some fad diet that is even WORSE.2020-01-2607 minAncient Guy FitnessResist the impetus to put sh*t into your life.Sleep. Hydrate. Exercise. Fast. Fitness is about what poison and ugliness you work at taking away. Resist all temptation to buy or acquire or join or travel your way to improvement...you cannot get there by squandering your cash.2020-01-2606 minAncient Guy FitnessBuild trust in yourselfYou can't have legitimate confidence in yourself until AFTER you have built yourself. You can't buy trust. You need to BUILD it with each repetition, each day's actions ... when you try to fake or to buy trust, you will only end up with a bar tab and a nasty hangover. Building trust is up to you and what you will do today, tomorrow and the day after.2020-01-2406 minAncient Guy FitnessAll great endeavors are deeply fractal.As with fitness...sleep, exercise, hydration, fasting... excellence derives from harsh simplicity and tedious repetition rather than from elaborate eloquence and soothing pipie-dream distractions. All great endeavors are deeply, tightly, perfectly fractal.2020-01-2301 minAncient Guy FitnessThe value of information is proportional to the degree to which it surprises and discomforts you.Most people are addicted to soothing, entertaining, reaffirming distractions ... actionable information is NOT sweet, tasty, gossipy swill. Actionable information is the kind that makes you think, "Oh crap! I need to crank it up a bit OR maybe even change direction." Information, particularly health or fitness information that makes you feel all nice, warm, fuzzy is, at best, worthless ... it is probably propaganda designed to make you comfortable in the kill chute.2020-01-2204 minAncient Guy FitnessALL disagreements [and agreements] happen because we misunderstand the other partyIt's YOUR fault when a disagreement happens ... there are some, probably MOST, agreements that you shouldn't enter into in the first place ... you can never understand enough about the other side, the other stakeholders when you enter in to an agreement.2020-01-2206 minAncient Guy FitnessContribute to open sourceIt is a deliberate act of kindness that will randomly benefit thousands or millions or even billions who will never be able to repay you. It requires GENUINE humility...that is the most important facet of fitness, flexibility and service for many, if not MOST, ancient guys.

Of those 1%, 1 in 100 will mesh well with you in terms of chemistry, attitudes, tastes. This means that for every 10,000 people in the world, there is likely to be ONE person who really GETS you ... they won't all be around you geographically; they will come from very different backgrounds; they will be different ages ... BUT they will be the FEW who will kind of persons who are able argue with you over a passionately shared interest and yet continue to think of you...2020-01-1903 minAncient Guy FitnessPay attention to what matters; ignore the excessively amplified hysterics.What are you missing right now?2020-01-1905 minAncient Guy FitnessSpeed is powerRemove the UNNECESSARY. Improve QUALITY of execution by focusing more attention on the most valuable, most essential.2020-01-1901 minAncient Guy FitnessLewer Dood As SlaavBetter dead than a slave ... better to be a slave than a slave trader. ABOLISH slavery IN YOUR MIND. Every. Single Second. Every. Single. Day. Slavery or being a slave to something is NEVER okay. It's simple jiujitsu...start with the white belt and never being taken captive, continue with the blue belt and teaching people to escape.2020-01-1807 minAncient Guy FitnessA change will do you goodMigrations benefit everyone...a change will benefit you as well as ALL of the people in contact with you.2020-01-1704 minAncient Guy FitnessAw, what a fresh day it is!What are you nose blind to? What kind of crap can't you sense anymore?2020-01-1508 minAncient Guy FitnessFitness is about being pushed.Get AWAY from like-minded people. Find people who share your passions, aptitudes, eccentricities ... find people who care enough in order to ARGUE FIGHT with you as if they were your brother or sister. Fitness is about being pushed...just a little harder than you want to be pushed. Find the people in the world who can push you ... more than you want to be pushed.2020-01-1406 minAncient Guy FitnessRepetition matters. Show up.Discipline is freedom. If you actually want discipline, you cannot buy it or get it from listening to or watching someone else -- YOU must DO IT, you must SHOW UP and own what YOU do. YOU must do it as well as YOU can .... repetitiously, for 10,000 hours, 1000 days ... if you screw up in any particular hour, get after it the next hour. New Year's resolutions are for morons. Fitness is not special or a different place you go. Fitness is REPETITION. Forget about your snowflakey little safe space workout at the gym or dojo .... repetition is intensely ordinary. If...2020-01-1304 minAncient Guy FitnessFive steps to fitnessSleep better. Move more/move better/do jiujitsu. Exercise in order to get more oxygen to your brain and stay hydrated. Eat less, pay less attention to nutritional fads and propaganda--it's what you REMOVE, not what you add. Think better, work smart, remove the fritterware and distractions to focusing.2020-01-1208 minAncient Guy FitnessFive Streams JiujitsuYou need five streams of income...you probably will have THOUSANDS of great ideas for solid businesses that you are not going to be able to develop...so SHARE your ideas...work instead on improving your workflow...the best way to do that is jiujitsu.2020-01-1208 minAncient Guy FitnessFitness is who you are, what you can do right now and about what you will become.Fitness is NOT about your past, even your recent past. Fitness is NOT about being a pathetic mope longing for yesterday.2020-01-1102 minAncient Guy FitnessOvercoming DISC (Distributed Idea Suppression Complex)For background on DISC (Distributed Idea Suppression Complex), you might want to listen to different episodes of The Portal, a podcast by Eric Weinstein.2020-01-0815 minAncient Guy FitnessA daily diary podcast as an example of exerciseTake five minutes and look at a SUMMARY of ten years of the Joe Rogan Experience ... or spend more time and look at a longer summary. Go back and surf through the archive of the EARLY episodes. It's really kind of amazing ... although what would you expect from DILIGENT mastery. I have ENORMOUS respect for Rogan and crew for doing exactly what they have done over the last ten years ... the DAILY process or Youtube/podcast WOD of how they have made JRE look easy is a gift to human beings everywhere. Pay attention to it. Don't ove...2020-01-0504 minAncient Guy Fitnessлучше поздно, чем никогда!In order to THINK in different languages, one must understand something about the history, the culture, the literature, the proverbs and stories, the idioms ... languages is more than just letters, syllables, words, syntax ... it's primarily about understanding the entire FLOW of an idea ... mental fitness demands exercise ... it is as we butcherers of the Russian language like to say, "luchshe pozdno, chem nikogda!" ... because "Better Late Than Never" just seems to mean more from a Russian POV.2020-01-0401 minAncient Guy FitnessHow you think is everything. Solving problems involves serious thinking.Remove the obstructions to THINKING. Being mindful requires that you work IN A DISCIPLINED FASHION at ridding your mind of desire, anger, hate, jealousy and negative barriers. You are designed to THINK ... but if you think wrong, think STUPID or allow your thinking to be driven by desire, pride, jealousy or hate ... you cannot possibly THINK ... your mind will be incapable of more elegant, more beautiful and certainly more sophisticated and complex thought.2020-01-0303 minAncient Guy FitnessStand up! THINK, ie CHANGE your mind. USE body weight along with your head to build/rehab your body.Make your routine SIMPLE-ER! Simple doesn't mean easy; SIMPLE repetition of a tough routine is HARD. Break your entire 16 hr workday into 30 minute time periods ... 25 minute pomodoros of focused effort or diligent ATTENTION to just one thing with a 4 minute TABATA of multiple sets of exercise.
