Honesty admits that the concept of “weekend warrior” is given a bad rap.
You don’t need to be in the gym everyday, and I almost can’t believe that I’m saying this…there are times where it makes sense not to be.
Any man putting in good effort on a leg or back compound exercise once a week, following something with a slow progression, will age far better than his inactive peers.
Buy a 300lb weight set – it’s great medicine…for life/for a lifetime.
Eventually stiff leg deadlift it with a snatch grip using some protocol involving effort, do this regularly, and you’re set.
Don’t necessarily make it solitary thing either, invite everyone to participate.
The german beer garden and gym combination strikes me as ideal.
Only in the current year is the gym far removed from healthy socialization AND the gaining of knowledge.
Socialization, knowledge, and lifting all in one – imagine…it puts a smile on my face.
The greeks had it set up that way.
The iranians and indians have their wrestling places be consecrated in addition!
Instead of watching “the game” in a gathering, imagine if the regular weekend thing was for you, your relatives, and your friends to meet up, barbeque, and deadlift!
Maybe too have a bonfire, throw some axes, shoot a bow, wrestle around, have a barbarian tribal party type thing instead of watching people you’ll never meet, who care nothing for you, run up and down a field on television.
I’m envisioning this already.
It too puts a smile on my face.
I should be in bed, but I have to type something regularly. Writing is a form of medicine for me, and I may think better with smartphone keyboard click clack clicking.
Thank you!
