Callout

Im going to make a video on the optima channel around this in a long long format where I wont be writing a script etc and just talking through some of the concepts/protos. I had lots of DMs and frankly dont have time to talk to everyone individually (wish I could but not enough time in day) where I will cover most all of your questions. If anyone has anything specific reply here with the questions and Ill try to include it

@Skurzaj Writing itself helps a lot You get to see your thoughts on paper in front of you and adds a bit of objectivity to it whereas thoughts are fickle, also gives you a point to reference back to later on.

@Callout66 About the writing, is it necessary to actually write stuff down? I am doing something similar by just thinking to myself about everydays events and was wondering wether it's actually different to keep a diary of some sort.

Thread time 🫳 🎤 Most Influential Habits I Have Discovered - Highest Return on Investment That I Could Recommend to Everyone To cultivate a sense of well being and progress as humans I believe there are 3 main “pillars” that are innately a part of all of us. Neglecting them leads to suffering as individuals whereas consistently giving them attention leaves us feeling fulfilled. (1/8)

Obviously this is just the tip of the iceberg. I was bored on a bus but had some of these thoughts circulating due to a conversation I had last night and thought to myself why not share with everyone. Someone may get some value from it. Also if anyone got value from this and wants to learn more about what we do @OptimaHP come setup a call and we can talk more there. (8/8)

5. Physical training - Training your body to be resilient and strong for a day that may never come so that you may be prepared if the time comes. Training with ferocity and intensity will also forge the mind in a way many other things cannot. (7/8)

For a bit more context the backbone that allowed us to maintain such a high level of consistency for so long. Those principles helped us become the only roster, from SSG through DZ, to qualify for every S-Tier event while winning multiple regional championships and a world title

@dom_peri0n Yes sir been developing it since I read How to Take Smart Notes awhile back

@Callout66 If you want to learn more about this note taking method it’s a zettelkasten that has been digitized

I'm building a wiki style thought garden that expands on many of the ideas I've been posting. Each concept will connect to deeper lessons, frameworks, and practical applications so you can explore topics at your own pace. More to come soon. Some teasers with todays post.

Note of the day + what the site will look like when you select one of the nodes.

Coming soon

@nmnvzz @Grissxm ^ and Im not finished - whole point of how I teach isnt to obtain a goal but adopt a way of being that is sustainable and feels right to you and your true nature.

Leading by example. I've been 330 lbs, overwhelmed, no clue where to start. I lost nearly 120 of it. If I had to start over today, this is exactly what I'd do first. No gym. No complicated plan. Just the basics that actually work. Free starter guide below dropbox.com/scl/fi/xwltb5x…

@SINZr6 Intra work nutrition for anything over an hour is key in my experience especially with my size, its not necessarily the most optimal but a bog standard Gatorade does the trick for me.

@Callout66 Biggest issue I’ve faced is running out of energy halfway through accessory work, but fixed it a while back by pulling back my first set of compounds to > failure. Also intrawork carbs. My boy trains the same way as u and has seen massive success as of recent (MMA+2x compounds)

@SINZr6 Too add I haven’t focused on solely on building in a long time but what you sent is sound basics, just need to be on top of recovery and have an understanding of it to maintain that level of volume. Ive been doing hybrid style training for awhile and lift 2x a week - compounds

@Callout66 I figured, was just posting in case it could be helpful to anyone who’s maybe looking to switch from PPL or any other split to higher frequency. Showing up day after day is the main driver of growth at end of day.
