Another powerful session with 4 takeaways standing out the most:
š¬ļø 1. Calm breathing = better sleep + better performance
Focusing on longer exhales helps the body relax, making it easier to fall asleep. Freerk even noticed how conscious breathing improved his strength & endurance, lowering his heart rate and helping him run longer.
Showing that breathwork isnāt just for stressāit directly impacts performance.
šŖ 2. Strength & muscle growth happen OUTSIDE your comfort zone.
If you only lift what feels easy, your body has no reason to adapt. The key? Push yourself just beyond your limitāeven if the next weight feels heavy, aim for 1-3 controlled reps in your first set, and build from there. Thatās how you break through plateaus.
š 3. Progressive overload = the secret to consistent gains
If you want to keep seeing progress, you must keep challenging your muscles. More reps, more weight, slower tempoāsmall changes make all the difference.
š§āāļø 4. We chase intensity but avoid what we actually need.
We think we need more cold dips, heavy breathing, and pushing limitsābut often, thatās just ego. We chase stronger, faster, and harder yet avoid the real workāstillness, silence, and facing what holds us back.
In a world that never slows down, learning to rest is the real challenge.
