With all my new workout schedules, styles, different exercises, new ones, combos of new and old ones and what not, something strange happened.

And something I’ve often been guilty of doing without even consciously recognizing or knowing it.

Something we ALL do unconsciously (though for the life of me I can’t figure out why!).

That being, to, for whateve rreason STOP doing what works best for YOU.

Coul dbe the intense mental work I’m putting in certain regards these days. Something that worked wonders for me just a couple of years back, and yet I stopped doing it inexplicably in 2019!

And the workouts?

Well, I’ve been doing ’em, but with a slight twist.

What has always worked best for me is wake up – and go get here done

But these days, I’m doing something different for whatever reason – slightly different.

I wake up – write to you, or check business emails etc, and then after that get her done.

Not a huge delay, but it’s a delay regardless.

Anyway, this morning I was feeling CRANKY.

Off.

All was NOT well with the world, despite the super handstand pushup workout last night.

I was attacting bazillions of junk messages all over the place (all went to DELETE).

People looking to moan and groan. Complain. A shoulder to cry upon.

And so forth.

Nothing wrong once in a while with all of the abov e-hey. I’ve been there. You’ve been there. We all do it, but when it;s just talk, talk, talk and IGNORE what the other person is saying, or keep asking idiotic baseless meaningless questions to prolong the conversation (or keep repeating the same thing like a stuck record) – thats when and why I hit DELETE. Or block usually …

Anyway, I slammed the laptop shut (not really, hehe. Closed!).

And out I went.

Tea was left undrunk.

I did a different workout today. No climbing, no rope jumps, no pushups.

Did plenty of that last afternoon …

I shouldn’t say no pushups, but anyway, I just Ran.

A slow run to start with. Picked up pace in the middle. Three rounds around the BIG park, and two again.

Then I did 25 pull-ups.

Then I repeated three rounds of RUNNING, picking up the pace even more (not sprinting, but still).

And then, 15 pull-ups.

Back home.

Stretched out. Launched into a 10 minute handstand routine (static holds, HSPU’s).

And now, my friend, I’m off to the shower. And I’m ready to take on the world, hehe.

Lesson being – do what worked for you my friend. And what WORKS.

We all stop doing it every once in a while, but we ALL (when our results falter in any regard) need to kick ourselves in the butt once and get going on that same path again.

I know one damn thing.

I’ve always been happiest and the most productive when my fitness and health (and what I really, really wanted out of life – see site #3, hehe, still not online) took priority over damn near everything else.

Take care of yourself FIRST bro.

You can only take care of others thereafter. And ther est will fall into place!

OK – back soon!

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee
