(Expanding in a post from the other day)
Leg day is like a metaphor for life. You just DO the hard thing you don’t want to do, and you feel 1000 better afterwards.
It’s the single best area of the body to exercise. Not just for your health and fitness, but for your hormones and a balanced aesthetic.
It will do more to stem aging, lethargy & weakness than anything else you can do, or anyone can sell to you.
Now...what are the three life & business lessons?
1. Do the hard thing.
People skip leg day, in the same way they skip confrontations in life, or that big nagging problem in the business or relationship you need to handle, but you're scared to. It's painful, but after you do it, you will feel better.
2. Works on the foundations, that are “less visible”
Success in business (and life) is more about what you did behind the scenes. It's consistently showing up, doing what you need to do, and working on the things that are invisible to the public eye. And when people find out (reminds me of Steve Job's insistence on making the inside of a. computer beautiful) they are in awe. Legs are similar. They're usually under your pants, or people don't notice. Until they do - and they're in awe.
3. Simple is best.
Leg day does wonders for you hormonally (man or woman) too.
It's infinitely better than all the biohacking nonsense.
Same goes for business. All the bullshit "hacks" and "tricks" are short term noise. They might give you the illusion of an edge, but the basics always work best.
It’s the simple (but hard) things that matter most.
