Practice Being Physical!

A lot of the training I do or try comes unexpectedly throughout the day.

I look for ways to challenge myself without traditional equipment or exercises.

The other day while cutting my grass I routinely wear a weight vest or ankle weights, sometimes both so I decided to try Superman Pushups wearing a 40 lb weight vest and using a cinder block to make it double tough.

I managed five, despite never doing them this way. It was cool for me, because I wasn’t sure if I could do them.

I train more like kid now just having fun, moving and lifting things,sprinting hills when I see them, whatever is physical.

The other day,  I made a delivery to a gym, in the back they had some tires laying there so the one day I flipped their tire with one arm, just fucking around!

The next time at the gym, I stacked their tires, I actually used to load and unload trailer loads of car and truck tires.

Anything physical is helpful and fun!

I love that I don’t need any special equipment to get in a workout.

You don’t need anything that isn’t already in your yard, in a playground, park, in the woods, behind a gym, everywhere is a good place to be physical.

Even a found 50 lb cinder block can make an Isometric Horse Stance brutal when you hold it for time!

So, pick up a rock in the woods and carry it with you the entire hike, or bring a 30 lb dumbbell and carry it where ever you go, the options are endless!

Kids are real durable until they become adults and change their activities.

I never heard of a kid hurting his back.

Never heard of a kid who tripped over a rug and injured a knee, like a strong man I recently read about.

I guess he wasn’t that strong.

I catch shit writing about the gym not being necessary, and if i didnt see it over my lifetime I wouldn’t believe it.

Sometimes opening your eyes and paying attention can fix an old belief.

Train And Be As Physical As Possible As Much As Possible.
