Calories? Meh, still don't get it.
When the tracking calories leads to frustration, or worse inaction, then counting calories becomes self-defeating. Knowing you have 23kg/calories/kcal (or whatever scientific demigod terminology you choose to prioritize) will not make the second part of the equation (physical activity) easier. Awareness of your caloric intake at the moment of consumption is temporary validation.

First off, I’m not gonna lie normally I am pretty good about not getting distracted by attractive women in class. It’s pretty hard to focus on much while unnaturally bending in a 110+ degree room. Besides, attractive women exist outside of class as normal people too.

Try as hard as you want. Freerunning will never be a spiritual practise, and I’m so glad of that fact. There is nothing more based in reality, no action more reliant on rational decisions and evidence, nothing more steeped in reason, than human physical movement. The expression of your individuality, creativity, development of your style, through movement - they all rely on you....

My heartache is magnified during the holidays. Not only are my expectations apparently too high, but I have no access to a barbell (remember, I forgot to ask Santa for a Rogue bar). I feel like a caged animal. Yes I love my family. Yes I enjoy doing what they want to do. But I find myself distant.

Restrictive Dieting? Why?
I don’t get it. If my body is not meant to eat something it will respond accordingly. It took a paleo reset to get attuned to exactly the foods that my specific body responds the most efficiently too (steak and fruit) but it was worth it.
Whenever I think ahead about my meals I always pretend that future me is an ADHD 10 year old that wants to burn shit and climb trees, and is susceptible...
