Our Silo Doesn’t Need More Advice from Within

If you front squat regularly, wear a fitness tracker, and know what your macros are, listen up. I’ve got something to confront you with..

You don’t need advice from the fitness community.

If you want to shave thirty seconds off of your mile time, great. Go for it. Want to edge out a few kilos on your clean and jerk, we’d love to help you. 

The truth is that if you’ve walked yourself into a strength and conditioning gym over a period of a few years to work your ass off, you might be in a silo. In that silo, you’re told about optimization, facing adversity, doing the hard thing, and all the propaganda that surrounds this lifestyle. Calm down on the Goggins videos and hear me out. 

Ironically, your biggest growth edge isn’t doing hard workouts. That’s actually your new normal. Dare I say you can learn something from another world? What about the world of indulgence? Slow communities? Artists? 

If you broke out in a rash reading that, you just found your new ice bath.
