How to achieve ANYTHING in LIFE!

[@ruzerpink]

I Love you James , keep keep going!

[@1stElement]

Haha! Thanks! That’s the plan - good to have company!

[@irondistance4313]

Well done James. Your right it’s damn hard to complete what you never started. I guess really comes down to priorities, and what’s important enough to do the work for and make the sacrifices in other parts of your life to obtain. As parents, spouses and adults we just have to align those and then grind until we succeed

[@1stElement]

Alignment is bang on dude - we all get easily distracted - the purpose of these videos has never changed - it’s always been about searching to be mentally and physically fitter than I was in video 1 - and I’m happy to say I am - but it’s been a hell of a ride. Life is supposed to be, eh?

@@1stElement it is hold on tight I’m pretty sure this next act will continue to deliver, as we navigate our kids into high-school, and we age, oh so gracefully, and have to work harder to maintain our current strength and fitness for the next 20 years

@@1stElement are you ready for the tour? I’m guessing your heart is with G but if you had to bet who would you put those hard earned pounds on?

[@1stElement]

@irondistance4313 always ready! I love G but probably not him… I mean it’s hard to see beyond TP isn’t it? I’m kinda bored of watching him race. Vingegaard (no idea how to spell it…) is a threat BUT - as ever with the tour - I’m not so interested in GC unless there’s a real race - but daily stories of each stage is where it’s at for me. I’m looking forward to seeing what WVA does…

@irondistance4313 yep - 100% that - I can’t wait to work even harder to stay where I’m at for as long as I can..!!

Congrats on the 400 🙌🏻 fabulous work.

Hey!! How are you doing? Thanks very much!

@@1stElement you put in great work and we all really appreciate what you do thank you. I’m ok thanks. Learning to accept my new routine with the M word and do what I’m able now I’m taking longer to recover

[@1stElement]

@geraldinecoupland4162 yep, I can imagine navigating the menopause and all its curve balls must be super challenging - I mean, I can’t relate, of course - but I’m guessing things settle down and routines and expectations can be got back to?

@@1stElement just take each day at a time. I’m extremely grateful though I can and think back where I came from 8 years ago, overweight, unfit and unhealthy. We are enjoying more countryside walks on public footpaths alongside cycling now plus I’m still loving kettlebells and yoga. It may not be as much as some but I do what fits into my lifestyle so I don’t stress then by planning in too much and then stressing over missing sessions. If I can only strength train twice a week but be consistent for the rest of my life because that’s all I can fit in then I consider I’m winning. Anyhows, how’s your training going? All well it seems 👌🏻

@geraldinecoupland4162 you know what an absolute muscle science expert said on a podcast with Andrew Huberman the other day? Consistency will always trump intensity - so you’ve got it sown up there - well done! And yes - you know what, I’m doing really damned well thank you - everything seems to just be falling together nicely at the moment!!
