Here I will post some breif articles I’ve written that may be of use to you if you are looking to overcome your tribulation. These are mere samples of what is in the HPPD Guide book (coming out soon). In it you will find much greater detail and guidance on a multitude of topics.
In my early years, I was complaining to my closest friend about how terrible I fel,t and how I was depressed and all that. He responded with something to the tune of “Well, it may sound silly, but trust me man, there are a few basic things in life that you must have down first before you even have a reason to feel good… Let alone normal!”
Fitness was one of those few things. Others were diet, sleep, etc. What is special about fitness? It is the one thing we have control over no matter what. HPPD, Prison, War, 80-Hour Weeks, there is no excuse so long as you have food and water (even then). You can even get stronger and healther even on calorie deficets.
Your physique is just about entirely up to you. Wherever you are right now, look down at the ground. See that floor area? That is all you need to get into the best shape of your life. You would love it.
Investing energy into exercise outputs more than was invested. The feeling you get is like a drug with only positive effects, both short and long term. There is no question about it.
Exercise will be your quickest way towards feeling not only normal, but better than normal – Great! Dedicate time towards getting into this habit. Then it becomes fun. Habitual. Addicting. Do it every day even if it is just a few minutes. Just start, and then do not ever skip a day. Keep your momentum. That makes it easy. Hold onto like its your newborn child. Don’t let it get lost. A “rest day” should still involve light cardio at an absolutely minimum. Keep it simple and keep doing it.
Don’t waste too much time researching what to do. It is very obvious how to become healthy, we all know how.
Regarding weight training: Warm up (heart, muscles, joints, etc). Treat your muscles gently at first. Hardest exercise in the middle. Be able to do 15 reps of what your doing to surely avoid injury. Cool down (heart, muscles, joints, etc).
Although I am not against them at all, know that you don’t even need a gym. You don’t need weights. You don’t need to go anywhere. For example, simply stand up and lift your arms up to the sides 100 times with proper posture. You will very likely get sore. That’s good. You will feel great too, and plus, those calories you eat are actually going towards something useful now.
The average lifestyle of people in Western countries requires probably 1,400 only calories, if that! 2,000 is ridiculous for sitting on a couch or office chair. Yet, most of these people eat like they are preparing for war and famine. We live in the most prosperous time of known history on Earth. We do not need to store much body fat. It ONLY hurts you in these current circumstances. There is a reason that in shape people are MUCH happier.
If you are overweight, the best thing you can do for your life is to lose body fat. Luckily that is easy, becasue you don’t have spend time cooking or eating or planning either. It will also save you money. Realize that all that body fat is money of yours. Use it! It amazed me when I fasted for 4 days and was able to concentrate better and still bike 10 miles a day for university. Reassociate bad food with feeling bad and good food with feeling good. You will be suprised at how much you can change your appetite in a year.
Simple and fun plan:
You’re overweight:
- Eat less, and/or move more.
