Andrew Huberman's Video on Alcohol : Asymmetrical Net Value Redemption on Overdrive. I've mocked Huberman for his constant convoluted, hyper-academic waffle monologues that are unreasonably boring and dense for virtually anyone to follow and understand, let alone get practical get value out, some academic pope addicted to big words and sounding smart (and shilling those fucking atheltic Greeen MY GOD lmao). But ... I have to say This 1 video probably redeems him entirely. Normie minds wont get the deep and timely value of his video, but theres a few specific reasons why its so valuable. (Yes, everyone "knows" that "alcohol is bad) but beside the point And the depth of this videos value is proportional to the subtle cultural underccurent surrounding alcohol, almost world wide, which is highly insidious and almost too taboo in many places to even question. ("Taboo" becuase your fucking with peoples norms, identity and cultural pride, drinking is even tied into perceptions of masculinity and how manly you are "chug it like a man bro" "Yeah i'm a fucking man yeah, Mm i can drink so much my body can just handle it, I'm a tank bro" "Ah we irish we love to drink, boy can we drink we got dam sexy livers man ;)) " ^^ Social Matrix, Country of Ireland (strongest example), "Social lubrication" myth, social norms, comfort seeking, "everything in moderation" myth Too tired tonight, I will expand on my point with more clarity tomorrow The main value takeaway from him was that even "Moderate" drinking actually does lead to a constant state of increased cortisol and weakened Neurotransmitter activity, days, weeks after ect.. and what is culturally accepted (and ecnouraged) as "moderate" is actually far above what your body says He also brilliantly explained what alcohol ingestion functionally does to the body in detail, which helps the mind really understand what you're undeniably doing to yourself mechanically, its a clearer higher depth of understanding Does this mean alcohols *ALL bad for society? I dunno man, bars and resteruants wouldn't be the same without alcohol, the environment does help people go on dates, connect with friends for many, I'm not sure what a replacement or solution for it is really *TRT - Admitting I may have been wrong I started to think medically supervised TRT was this "miracle drug" that allows aging men to maintain libido, muscle mass, drive until 60-70, with no other side effects apart from fertility and dependency on consistent dosing. Perhaps that's true, but I have not researched it enough to truly make an informed statement ... It technically is a form of steroids, maybe theres other big catch or risk, I need to look into it a lot more, I DO NOT KNOW. ... TBH, (when done as a targeted licensened medical intervention) it probably actually is a mircle drug for men who genuinely NEED it because they're suffering with cripplingly low Tesosterone, which they've tested and failed to get back up to a reasonable standard naturally. Even Morphine is medically useful so it's just the form and context. When T was first dicsovered, they used haphazzard dosing and frequency, perscribed randomly had no idea what they were doing, synthesized Testosterone itself has been around since like 1930 nothing new, but it's the modern medical context surrounding it that makes it possibly a life saver for some, with better measuring technology and the ability to monitor related health markers, blood pressure, proper clinics and precise dosing.

Compartmentalizing the appropriate mindset and self talk for an ENTP 1. 10-20% of the time = ^ That shit 2. 80% of the time = "SHUT THE FUCK UP, STOP THINKING". " GO FUCK NOW". JUST APPROACH, SAY HI, FUCK IT. " GET UP, WAKE UP BITCH, GO GYM NOW". "FUCK HER NOW". "MAKE MONEY U WOLF, FUCKING GET THE SALE NOW, CALL HIM NOW".

With a couple exceptions like hearing the 80/20 rule, I've virtually never studied or looked into productivity as a domain, nor do I even want to. Hard to explain but virtually no productivity guru I ever listened to ever said anything useful that actually helped be more productive, the only gurus that helped me be more productive were gurus who didn't specifically talk about or frame stuff as productivity, like Alex Hormozi,he's telling you "how to get rich" (not using some vague annoying proxy for getting rich, and ironically that get rich video will probably make you 10* more productive as a byproduct) "Productivity" is a red flag because of the type of autistic waffling course shilling fanatic virgin morons it attracts, I'm not talking about fucking "productivity", thats just a byproduct benefit of my meta insight, fuck productivity

Another thing I needed to realize 10 years ago. It's sounds so obvious but virtually no one, including myself, lives as if it's true, especially perceivers. I've probably multiple threads to unravel with this later Time, Hours, Scheduling, Budget Metrics, Tracking, Targets, Sales, Conversion Ratios Calories, Nutrients, Physics, Oxygen, Blood Flow, Mitochondria, Energy, Mass, Force, Height, Daily Protien Needs, 1.6-2.2G of protein/KG of body weight for muscle growth & maintenance Sleep, Rhythm, Waves, Skill Acquisition, Habit Formation, Language Acquisition > Word Count, Top 2,000 Most common words, 80/20 Rule, FSI language difficulty rankings & Hours required to acquire new language/relative to what your native tongue is Cognitive Load Style, Tailoring, Proportions, Symmetry, Silhouette Frequency, Intensity, Spacing, Training Distance, Effort, Resistance, Density, Quantity, Asymmetry, Inversion Logistics, Location, Geography, Population Size, Population Demographics, Cold Approach, Numbers Game Dimensions, 3D, Volume, Proportion, Space I dont like math, maybe thats why I avoided seeing the world in such a way for so long, but it feels more interesting when I see it in this way, not just algebra We all got blindspots Only game is the race of how fast u realize your most important ones I remember watching a pirated Owen Cook marketing Course years ago and he mentioned how he "didn't realize investing was a thing you should do until like 40 years old and had always reinvested into the business/helped his friends out until about 40" ... by that point it was too late because hes older and stuck in a cycle of earning/spending/reinvesting(into the business machine) ... i remember him saying with that deep look "... maybe its because i didn't wanna know, I didn't wanna allow myself to know, i'm a co-dependent, i had to help my employees out instead of reinvest", it took him 40 years just to realize that you can compound wealth (and grind less) by just investing some of your profits over time, that u can buy gold, bitcoin, assets (and you're kinda fucked if you dont) in the long run

ENTP's & the "Jack of all trades" dilemma Many people state that society rewards specialized experts, and you have to focus. I dont disagree but most people dont understand what its like to be an ENTP The force that drives a man to want those big, firm rounded boobs and hourglass figure, is what learning about virtually anything (practical & notable) - of which there's unlimited quantity in the conceivable human world, is to an ENTP .. It's ever lasting, never stops, and never loses it's charge. I'm supposed to make money, and my brain wants to look at Octane, Ethanol, fuel sources, chemistry .. just fucking today, just for today my brain desires to connect that shit. I'm going to be looking at how to reconcile this brain disease we have, most arent self honest enough to admit the enormity of this problem, either that or they're not real entps and they're just lying, its a huge problem that causes a lot of smart broke people At least 1 surface level "solution" I guess is to, simply chose a domain that enable and can potentially faciliates some breadth and flexibility, so that you can function as a cross-disciplinary, expansionary hollistic expert that can actually profit from that. Marketing/sales is 1 example because its (potentially) broad and about many different things, or I suppose "general business man" because its very hard to pin down what a good "business man" actually is or does - many components that can impact his quality and value, the least of which his general character and aura (benefited by life experiences/travelling/meeting interesting people ect.. which ENTPs love) *^^ Marketing/Sales is broad - Although sales is more like a technical skill, but because you deal with a different client/lead every time, it fufills the constant novelty desire, every conversation & character u deal with differs. Marketing is extremely broad in a sense. So many brands, many different ways to market, there's general human psychology that helps influnce it, there's cultural influences, technology ect.. But honestly this is all a bit too dramatic, I have and can focus hard on one thing, its not impossible The inittial disciline requried and resitance is higher, but once you're in you can stay in There is no excuse

The Purification of Pain & Crying = Male Vitality ANy1 remember that Eric thomas saying "dont cry to quit, cry to keep going" I think this is an overlooked and understated subtle aspect of male character and perseverance Any friends or associates i know who achieved unusual success (got rich in their 20s, launched a hard business, turned around a criminal record ect..) they often came from pain, not just before they embarked on the path but especially during it I remember people saying they were crying to make it work, feeling half hopeless and defeated, they felt the pain & desperation of the process, but they didn't go numb or flat, fucking jerking off. And thats a strong signal of vitality Because it shows you're not numb, most men are too numb to even feel it, or they dont care enough And it's not the same as a spiralling, can't leave your bedroom type of frequent crying, that kind of passive weakness Its not really about frequency either, it could be unexpected, but intense. Doubt most these guys cry often, but when they do its intense, becuase they have a lot of trauma built up, and trauma becomes octane

I watched Leos decisiveness video about 2+ years ago in the last year I'm only really starting to fully get it Perceivers dont tend to be the most naturally decisive or structured either It really is a muscle Actually starts with a meta decision The decision that u have to be decisive every day, and just force it out of you, there is no successful and fulfilling life without it, there is no leadership either And every week adn every month Am I going to wake up earlier & hit the gym at 6AM daily so i can get it out the way and make my real dreams come true from early and have time to approach women in the evening, the only true high ROI time to do it How ... the fuck will I do that? Doesn't matter The decision is there

The key to mental health when are you are in a crippling spiral of regret, or just overwhelming pressure and dread, I've found is to take a peak into hell Envy the thief of joy but Hell is the genesis of gratitude Look at young dudes in wheelchairs Extremely ugly dudes All the prisoners Fucking look at them What a blessing to be alive and have a functioning body Fuck capitalism? What a blessing to be able to produce income iwth my body and brain, even the possibility of it, even if u got fired or lost your clients, that POTENTIAL is there Every day there is POTENTIAL to see a hot girl and talk to her, and seduce her, because youre not in fucking jail Every day you can go to the gym, and sculpt your body Even beer and video games "oh no im fat" but u still get to play video games and drink beer? The last of us, RE4, these games ... are simply incredible Max security prisoner no games for him Swim in fucking hell and there is no envy Can't be staring at celebrities online in your fucking igaloo bro, marvel at the snow instead I can't sleep, i've lost my mind, fuck it

Remind myself before I get lost in my head thinking about a million different non targeted things as an ENTP 1. The Firm & Crystal Clear Decision (or Goal) To do Something = > Important than the Effort itself. Do I want to get ripped? Do I actually? Have I decided what that actually means? Do I understand what the enormity of that obstacle is? Am I willing to pay the cost? (of which there are several) Same with being rich (except 10* harder even) 2. Then I have to decide "I'm going to get ripped > then how much/when and how? 10% body fat, within 6 weeks, using a pre selected meal plan, that can be followed every day I know exactly what to eat, within what scedhule, and how much I will workout daily I also need to be decisive about getting sleep and recovery, without this everything falls apart, because in a tired state, you simply just will reach for comfort food, you dont have the energy to care, complete losing game. This means I have to control caffiene, very cautiously, its literally a fucking drug, that has a threshold which is so easy to go over. It's in pre workouts, dark chocolate, hot chocolate, protien powders, sports drinks, all these things are again hyper palatable and tempting to consume but just strategy .. protien power fine just buy one with no caffiene , no chocolate flavours ect I HAVE TO FUCKING CUT DOWN ON CAFFIENE MAN, PLEASE, GOD PLEASE! PLEASE! HELP! HLEP! ITS SOOOOOO FUCKINGGGG HARDDDD MAN ARHSJDKASKDKHSDFKLHDFSKLHFDKLSDFLKHLSKFHDSFLKHD FUCK. I SAID ID QUIT IT YEARS AGO I'VE TRIED TO QUIT LIKE 6 TIMES THIS YEAR ALONE AHHHHHHH NOOOOOO I DONT WANNA LOOK LIKE ALEX HORMOZI UGLY PIG NOOOOOOO CUT DOWN OR QUIT CAFFIENE NOW I HAVE TO DO IT AHRHHHHHHH BN] FUCK SOCIETY MAN CAFFIENE SUGAR STRESS WORK ITS ALL SO FUCKED!! JUST SO 0.1% OF PEOPLE CAN HAVE 10 BILLION

If everyone was ripped, it also wouldn't mean as much. Maybe being ripped was normal in tribal times. What i realized recently is that, in the modern world (and its surely only getting worse) it litterally is a losing battle for 50-80% of the population, trying to not be fat. Depends on the country, but I'm talking globally. Thankfully theres still places in Europe where we have relatively healthy, active populations, but this is declining. And it often requires perfect climate to bring about that affect, because you're competing with : Ultra addictive, perfectly presented, scientifically engineered, hyper palatable, calorie dense snacks, which are ubiquitous, cheap(in the short term) and provide the perfect momentary relief to your pain, stress, boredom, discomfort, dehydration, and nutrient deficits. And these snacks arent just presented in a vaccum THey're thwon at you while youre busy working, do not have time to cook or prepare food You're stressed, anxious and full of cortisol You don't sleep enough, or high quality And the list goes on ... theres probably 15 other reasons why not being 20-40% body fat is, at least on the surface, a complete losing battle for 50-80% of the population. "NEw generations become health conscious now" yeah for 6 months, until they realize they work 60 hours a week and have randomly reached 18% body fat, here they just give up and life flows by And even if you do eat "clean", how many pesticides are in that clean food you ate for 25 years, say the pesticides destroy your brain tissue gradually, that impacts serotonin, lack of serotonin impacts impusle control and mood .. eventually the guy starts eating junk all day anyway. In a sense yeah, health in general is a losing battle for 90% of the population anyway. ^ It literally takes like a fucking 50 minute walk just to burn off the calories of a bounty bar, and feel how light and unsatisfying a bounty feels. Who the F** actually just eats 1 bounty? Has to be a coke with it, and a box of Maltesers ts not normal, feminine or attractive to have "ripped" or muscular women, in fact the ideal body fat for women is like 20-25% or something I think, but there's nuance, the type of fat matters, some western oger eating mars bars all day, even if she manages to stay at 25% body fat, thats a gross, visceral form of fat, whereas attractive "fat" women have more subcutaneous fat, in the right places - hips, ass, thighs. I love "fat" soft women lool mmm ^ Why i dont like black women 95% of the time (rare exceptions), normally they're either fat af in a gross visceral way, or they're ripped and muscular (even worse), when they are attractive, they are extremely attractive imo though, just isn't that common (which is partly why its so arousing when it happens, normally the hot "black" women arent really black either, typically more caramel toned (but theres always exceptions everywhere). The amount of old neighbors, friends ect i've accidentally came across years later and saw them like "fuck this guy got so fat af already",

"Getting Ripped" to me is connected to getting rich becuase unlesss you're cheating with steroids, it involves so much more than moving around. Getting ripped in a natural aesthetic way, not a sunken, cortisol ridden dehydrated or PED enhanced way Involes consistent discipline, recovery, better sleep, and managing or removing stress. If you sleep badly and are stressed, the chance that you wont slip up and cope with junk, caffiene, sugar is extremely low, and even if you workout, you'll over train, workout at weird hours like in the night, and constnatly be trying to overcompensate and fighting yourself, you might technically lose body fat, but your face might look gaunt from all the stress See what I mean Actually getting "ripped" the proper way, naturally, requires a very strategic brain and a very above average level of mental health, its not easy at all. To me, even being able to be ripped like that in the first place, virtually gaurantees i will make more money, because its not normal in todays world to have good recovery, not be a full blast caffiene addict, to not drink chronically to cope, phone addict, hunchback, impulsive, coping, spending addict, cortisol loop, none of these things go with making money. NOt for me, not for most, dont have a 200 IQ or ISTJ brain, so I cant get awya with that shit at all and still be successful. You'll sometimes see rich/high status or self improvement guys flexing how they have a flexible diet and smoke and drink chronically and are completely fine and make loads money and all this. What they dont tell you is that They are 6"3, have rich parents, peak top 0.1% health genetics, have well rounded IQ above 125 and no cognitive weakpoints, were born in a well connected part of America with a stable climate, got private school education, and might have a lot of insider connections, in america, on social media ect.. that have their back and will always collude with them. Then that entitled prick comes out and tells everything "hey guys I drink and smoke every day and I still pull stunners and I still make loads of money, no health problems either" stop being so try hard.

So dramatic lmao haha Just mean in the Jordan Belfort shark kinda way where you have to just completely not give a shit what people think, manipulate lie and screw people over within legal bounds. Not because i genuinely like doing that, but becuase thats just how the world is. But ironically that skill of fienging conviction can become genuinely valueble in a sense. Also by "being a shark" you "accidentally" get good at closing and sales, which is the most universally irreplacebale valuable skill, if i wasnt doing business I'd try to become a high ticket closer. Even failing at business improves closing skills, every lead is a lesson.

Inner Game, Mental & Psychological Side : Similar to dating, yeah you have to work hard and earn your wealth but thats not enough, everyone works fucking hard man. No, War mentality I'm leaning a lot more towards darkness, stepping on people, zero empathy and affection (thats reserved for all my girlfirends thanks) Fucking ruthlessness, lie manipulate, hunger, be a snake be a dog animal bark bark energy fire. Promise shit, collect cash, get amazing at bullshit, marketing. Outreach. Make money get employees for delegation manipulate them get rich quick quick quick GET FUCKING RICH Dont give a f*ck what anyone thinks, piss people the fuck off, call 400 people a day, harass people, never let a lead go until they block you, demand more payment, if they cheap clients collect their money and fuck off and focus on the gold, no refunds. MASTER the fuck out of social psychology and manipulation and frame management, value perception, master my mannerisms my communication for business sales calls everything, master social media if needed i hate getting online attention but if i have to do it, i have to do it. Darkness makes money. Have to become a villain to get rich. ^^ So many people milked me of my money time attention before, i dont owe the world fucking nothing, i'm here to take back. IM GETTING RICH NIGGAAAAAAAAAAAAAA IM GETTING FUCK RICH OR I'LL DIE INTHE PROCESS NIGGGAAA SUICIDE MENTALITY MFFFFF

Cold Approach & Womaniser Blueprint Style Need more fresh clothes - Tailored Pants *3-5, mix of color range - $60- $120 Fresh Sneakers - $60-$130 Club button Shirts - big weakness, I normally just wear fitted white t shirt, which can still work fine, I do see all these guys in the club wearing those shirts thinknig where the fuck do I get these, good to have as an option Inner Game & Drive No Fap Visualization/Affirmations/Self Talk (Probably most overlooked) Final Boss - Remember that this isn't merely to fuck loads of girls (it is but) I'm going to fall for beautiful young exotic ultra feminine 19 year olds (or even younger ;)) , its gona happen, ive got the looks i've got the charisma, just have to max it out, my ultimae cieling is extremely high, I've got Owen cooks sex drive + James Bond looks (when im stylemaxed/looksmaxed) + Vincent Cassels charisma. But that doesnt mean shit until I get the fucking money and the consistent logistics and I go to fucking war and never stop. Brute Force War & Warrior Mentality, WW2 Suicide Mentality & Nihilism Avoid lazy & passive men like the plague Both Day game & Night game (but have to be strategic about night game - choice of when to go out, which events - logistics venue context can make the juice not worth the squeeze, since you're sacrificing sleep and health, has to be worth it ... Also cut off by 1-2AM, no regular fucking 4-6am nights, maybe once a month max. Leo and others thinking this is sustainable is completely nuts, it destroys fucking everything, sleeping at 5AM even once ruins the entire week Approach women of any age older or younger if i feel attraction doesn't matter Never need validation and laugh at rejection Be willing to go out alone, do things alone, and do things in optimal conditions Still approach if broke, approach when high body fat, approach without tailored pants, the momentum is sacred

Getting Ripped Blueprint I've gained significant muscle but I cant get below fucking 15-17% body fat, its so fucking frustrating and its so fucking difficult. I already know what I fucking need to do 1. Chat GPT 2. Clear macronutrient daily calorie deficit & exercise plan - Based off my bodyweight and what i like to eat/whats convient for me 3. Folderize/bookmark the chat & memorize it > so theres no decision fatigue or willpower needed to eat something/not eat something 4. Set an achieveable timeline goal based on physics > to getting to 10% body fat. 5. Schedule all this in alongside working out so it can fit in with my life and getting rich and cold approaching 6. Also schedule in the workouts - when do i go gym, where which gym? what excercises do I today wednesady ect.. ec.. this needs to be fucking planned and automated because mental energy is getting burnt - even when im in the gym its like "what do i do" ect.. 7. Technical learning of new/better aesthetic physique exercises or on anything im missing / Proper form 8. Once this is all covered and I reckon this make take i can get this all down in 2 weeks if i focus, then from there i know excatly what/how/when to do and im set, then i got maybe 4-6 weeks and I can lose the body fat while still building muscle, I've built enough muscle now, focusing on bulking is hugee diminishing returns relative to just losing 5% body fat so my frame pops the fuck out and I'll look like a lean vascular tanned muscular sex god with a massive fucking libido, of which i have one, but the leanness just kinda signals and peacocks it.

It took me years to realize energy drinks are bad not really because of the additives, but the ultra high acidity levels. Energy drinks can be up to 100* more acidic than coffee, and drinking them on an empty stomach even more brutal And i never realized that high acidity in foods impacts dental and enamel health This is all based on the PH Scale ... I really got fucked in the ass with my education man, thank fucking god for chat gpt

Dont lose it dont forget nono Very very interesting conversation, brain orgasm of mental growth and self understanding, seeing beyond the surface Surface wins and comfort vs aliveness Man's eyes No edge no sparkle Most men nothing to envy, they just dont have the edge Many rich "succesful" who "won", seeing beyond the surface of the money and travel and IG followers, seeing the dullness in his eyes, no substance and character, just brand deals, repetition, polite rich man with his same old decent wife, going through the motions Jocko Willick in Romadi WW2 Cold Approach Risk, danger, edge, competition, war, testosterone, challenge, pain, struggle Comfort, routine, "he won", no edge, yes-men Authetnicity, power, pain, edge that young french chick feels in my eyes no words even said I cannot articulate my thoughts now I know what i want to say but i just cant sometimes Maybe chat gpt can do it ... DANGER NIGGA. I NEED FUCKING DANGER IN MY LIFE ADRENALINE NIGGA FEELING ALIVE SO MANY TIMES EVEN RICH GUYS DONT REALIZE TENSION RISK STRUGGLE DANGER POWER MASSIVE GOALS There's even succesful and intelligent people probably on here, and mods, that have come and go, and you can feel in their words that, even if their friendly, consistent, healthy, knowledgable, intelligent ... yeah, but you can feel the lack of fucking edge. Because they settled with the same 6/10 10 years ago and never tested themselves, emotionally. They're not facing real risk, the lights are dimmed, the eyes are dulled, the words feel flat. This is so fucking important to understand, i needed to understand this shit at 16, this is like the most life changing shit. It smore important than taking vitimin D and flossing your teeth every day and investing and all that fucking meaningless shit, this is some meta shit 19 YR OLD FRENCH CHICK IM COMING NIGGA, IM FINDING U AGAIN NIGGGGGGAAAAAAAAAA.

The scary feeling about doing a bad habit once. i Yesterday I had 4*marsbar icreams, a chocolate bar and a coca cola can, alll at 6PM, all to try and grind out and compensate for my lack of output bad sleep and impatience. And the reasoning in my head came as "its just today, just grind it out, glucose for the brain" ect. But the scary thing about eating ice cream once, a chocolate once, or a coke at 6PM Is that when u do it once, there's like this quantum field occuring where you're either now doing it 23 times consecutively, or even forever until death. This is how life works. It's not that you definitely WILL keep consuming it until death But you''ve created a quantum field where you really have a chance of conusming it until death, if not every day then its at least now in your visible field of consciousness and temptation. And without any firm decision against it, there simply is no boundary. Why do people push the idea of moderation with ice cream/coke ect..? When it's extremely addictive and just hits the brains reward centre. P.s I'm not saying u should eat 100% healthy and pure 100% of the time, humans do get bored. This is what, some cheesy lentil pasta with some artifical creamy sauce, mayonase, salt ect.. can be for. U can enjoy "unhealthy" food, like too much cheese or sauce. But marsbar icecreams and coke is different. Its like going from 1 cold beer on friday to snorting meth, the diet equivalent. Can people moderate meth? Dont think so. Its the mode of ingestion too. A beer can be like 3-5% alcohol, slow to drink, eat with a meal ... Meth u can just snort that shit in an empty stomach and you're high off your mind with 30 seconds. A cheesy lentil pasta with mayonaise and salt might satisfy the boredom but its slow, messy, and still satiating. U can't jsut walk into a store any time of day or night and eat it in 2 seconds. That type of sugar also fucks up sleep. Like Leo said though I'm not inherently against fruit juice or honey, even though its pure sugar. Thats the sweet spot if u do need to grind. If these things were truly so addictive the population would be hooked on fruit juice and honey, but they're not ... because its way more context than the sugar itself, a chocolate bar is often like a dense little twig of pure sugar caffiene and preservatives that u can eat within 3 seconds anywhere with zero mess and get a mini mouth orgasm senseation from, it's truly the devils trick. It works for quick energy but its like 100* less addictive and toxic than chocolate/ice cream. Fruit juice and honey aren't scientifically engineered to hook you, they dont taste that good. To conclude : People do get bored, cant be perfect 100% of the time, and even raw sugar itself is a tool, but that doesnt mean u fucking snort meth in moderation.

1. 7 weeks since I wrote this and no, I have definitely not maxed out my physique, gained 10-15 pounds of muscle AND lost 5% body fat in the space of 8 weeks whilst also working and living a stressful modern life with no personal trainer, without any PEDs LMAO 2. But I have made some crazy gains 3. Body fat is almost the same, possibly slightly higher 4. Very difficult to gain fast muscle and lose bodyfat at the same time, easier to either slightly bulk or stay around maintenance and gain, then cut, or Cut + lift > get to 10% body fat > Bulk/muscle gain to 12.5-14% body fat, then cut a little again with enough protien/maintenance lifts 5. Gaining 10-15 pounds of muscle naturally takes a long time, even for genetic freaks 6. (If u have great frame/genetics) It is not necessary to get that much muscle in order to get the benefits and look good enough, just gaining muscle for about 4-6 months AND losing the body fat already provides 80-90% of the look and attraction benefit, everything after is just refinement and in a sense, diminishing returns, a trainer might notice the difference but women couldn't care less. desiring that much perfection typically leads to steroid/PED temptation but for naturally athletic people there is literallly zero reason to consider steroids, simply losing enough body fat to reveal the frame you were designed for + 3-6 months of lifting moderate weight gets you 90% of the benefit The great thing I realized about lifting is that u dont need even close to perfection to stand out. As an experiment i'm getting to 10% body fat + Tan + high symmetrical muscularity ^ This isn't necessarily sustainable or realistic long term, but I just want to arrive there, then I'll consider whether to stabilize back at 12-13% Now this might sound ultra vain or like im compensating for insecurities, but fortunately this is coming from above not below I approached girls when I was slim, and attracted them, I'm aware that a body alone isn't enough nor does it make u entitled to attention or anything else, it isn't ultimately that impressive or interesting or meaningful, also most lifters are shy, they hide in the gym Still, for me because I'lve already worked on the aura, I already know that I'm interesting and have a personality, and I'm not inescure anymore, i have almost zero insecurity about myself, I have a ton of regrets and pain, but most of my regret comes from the realization of how powerful and gifted I always was. It's a beautiful hobby and process ... and yes many women do find it extremely attractive and arousing, my direct experience says so. My main final touch is to lose the body fat, becuase of this obstacle, I'm capping myself heavily, I want that lean + jacked look, but I also like to eat, have huge amounts of stress and pressure. en A quick note on less genetically gifted (average) lifters. Yes, u can (naturally) get close to the same level I will get to, but it will take 2-3X longer, and you might get 80% of what I get to as a cap until u get past multiple years of lifting... but you'll still get there, so it's still worth it. (Also have to consider that the average man is crippling unhealthy, sedentary, obese, terribly dressed ect. so the bar isn't that high to stand out) If you're a true ectomorph though, then either workout for other reasons than siize/aesthetics or accept taking either steroids or pick another hobby This is probably not fully accurate. I think for an average talent lifter it might take 1.5 - 2 times more effort, not 2-3X But theres also many factors, u might have lower stress, better sleep, more free time and wealth, better quality nutrition, a personal trainer with peak form and strategy. In this case an average talent lifter may even get there faster than me, their natural ceiling is still capped though because frame, muscle insertions, symmetry, waist-shoulder ratio ect.. impacts how good the body can look ... but again like I said no one needs to have top 0.1-1% genetics to stand out, just a year of gaining muscle and <14% bodyfat likely puts you far above the physical attraction threshold. It's soo common counter culture nowadays to shit on the gym (easy way to for someone to evade their own lack of discipline) but I honestly love it now, especiallly because its 1 of those things you can really control, and that's why a lot of people respect it, becuase they know, even just intuitively, that u had to work for that. And this is no small thing, not being a fat fuck is very difficult in todays world, we live in a world of ubiquitous hyper-caloric abundance. It's getting much rarer to stay in shape. This really hit me when I started to realize even most personal Trainers are high body fat. Working online, although highly worth it for other reasons, isn't good for the body. The least one can do is frequent walks and gym wherever possible.

Give a man his worst conditions, you'll discover who he truly is. There is comfort in admitting ones stupidity, its a general attitude to life you develop once you start to let go of the Mr James Bond Sthick Direct experience is king. None of this is actualllll, these are all just words. 50-80% of everything every human ever says is either wrong or biased. Forum is cute hobbie, but its nothing compared to life experience Main reason to use the internet, is simply to make money Thgative to society (even tough it can individually ruin people), To Andrew Huberman its just "a toxic carinogen that attacks the liver ect." but he's literally "stage blue", he can't visually and hollistically 3D contextuallize alcohol in his mind, thats the problem. Not here to condone alcohol, but if i see its value, its coming from above, not addiction. Imagine a fully sober world where you couldn't get drunk? u think that would be a better world automatically, but thats an assumption. Peak Nihilism and living as if I'll be dead by 40. Instead of worrying about business, just going balls to the wall at it like nothing matters and i have nothing to lose, no ones opinion fucking matters. Peak Nihilism doesnt have to mean being some bum drinking on the street doing nothin, nuance Peak Nihilism may incorporate drinking, but not as a means to do nothing with my life, just as part of the family. Gym can is peak nihilism because nothing matters anyway, might as well be ripped as fuck Might as well get rich, fuck it Might as well fuck thousands of bitches and fall in love with a few, fuck it Might as well do some stupid dance in the rain and film myself doing it as a memory so my kid can laugh at it when I die at 40, fuck it

Net Value, Seeing the big picture & Asymmetrical Value Redemption Leo, I criticize and even scorn the guy half the time. But the reality of his value is : Hey may be wrong (or just not resonate with me) 40-80% of the time, on 40-80% of the things he says or does (varying to different contexts/domains) But its that 5,10, 20% of the time when he is right, or he does resonate, that not only redeems him and all his quirks, but goes 10,000* beyond in net positive value. And what im trying to explain is deeper than it seems. Moses might be "right" or "resonate" with me 70% of the time when i hate 80% of the shit leo says and does, yet be 10,000 times less value and less deserving of receiving value (money praise recognition ect.) Because, Moses "rights" are shallow, repetitive, predictable, not expressed with elite articulation, charisma and impact, are not thought provoking, it's "yeah i agree ok, enjoy your beer dude" I think leo once said that, even if a guys a literal fucking rapist or muderer, his net value can still be 10,000 times the average good person. And i especially here respect the boldness with which Leo communicated this .. Imagine fucking trying to explain this on fox news or just to PC normies, staight out one ear and instant accusation that you're a mudering rapist pedophile whatever, because normal people dont even listen, they just hear the word "rape" and react on autopilot. A guy can literally be a complete arsehole (in this forum, in the world, at work, basically anywhere) and still be worth 10,000* more than some boring nice guy fuck face because of his fucking net value. Doesnt make the guy a role modal but still, its facts. I'm not a role modal for example, average joe would've been perma banned with the way I act half the time or my wild rants, which hints and at what a rare masterpiece of inimitable value I actually am. maybe he'll ban my ass one day, but if he does i guarantee he'll be biting his lip as he says goodbye. I probably talk nonsense 50-95% of the time, but that 1-5% when I do hit it, I produce something that the average personality and mind couldnt in 5 lifetimes, some people are just 1 of a fucking kind and the world needs them. Literally superhuman. *Forgot to mention leos net negative value : his tragically wrong take on No Fap, that almost wipes him out, this is still hard for me to forgive, dont ever fucking masturbate or edge ever again. NO. Go have sex instead, or work hard & move out so you can. Thats what everyone needs to hear. Advising men online to fap is the equivalent net value of murdering hundreds of people, but his net positive value redeems him, just.

The power of Transmutation Quick thoughts no lose insight inspired by leos power of letting go we cant always (often) let go .. I personally cant + im not wired for it - my brain type, pesrtonality, hormones ect.. So what do i do, just suffer and sit there in pain? in anger ect..? No, transmutate Jocko wilinki, romadi, what was that > Transmuation of core base tesosterone, anger ct.., it was fuieling everything, but to good ends, he embraced it, he wasn't "letting go" Mike tyson - ugly niggga, in his prime just raw anger and fury, raer ge Transmutation is the the other half to letting go Letting go isn't binary "oh no cant let it go no" Either i let it go, or I TRANSMUTATE business war love women insecurity rejection "oh no she rejected me because im the american guy italians got it easy wish i had the itlaian stereotype and im getting fat ah" ..."oh no cant let it go ah ... rejection " TRANSMUTATE = TALK TO A DIFFERENT WOMAN, PERHAPS FROM A DIFFERENT RACE, COMPLETELY NEW TYPE OF GIRL, CARRY THAT EMOTION, ITS FUEL
