Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- I sit basically motionless for ten or twelve hours, and even on days I squeeze in a workout the rest of me barely moves at all
- Meat sits at the center of nearly every meal I eat and I’d like to lean more toward beans and vegetables
- I run wound-tight from the moment I wake until I collapse at night, never actually coming down
- Most of my training lands in that comfortably-hard middle gear, and I leave every session tired but my fitness barely moves
- I’ve got a new hire starting and the lazy move is to just hand them whatever’s piled up in the backlog
