What did you train today?

It doesn’t matter much if things you believe are true if they beliefs serve you well

The Holographic Universe is one of the most interesting books I’ve read

Changed the way I understand reality and connected a number of ideas for me

Reality is malleable and we are more powerful than we understand

Here’s a taste of it from author Michael Talbot

Matt Izzo You have helped me brother so you are down to 999,999

My goal is to help 1 million people overcome obesity by the end of this decade

I had terrible plantar fasciitis in 2014-15 and I still walked 10,000 steps with it every day

It was a bleak few months because every one of those steps hurt but in hindsight the pain was cathartic and toughened me up

Since I lost 75 pounds plantar fasciitis has not returned

I was overweight and developed suboptimal movement patterns as an adaptation

If you’ve lost weight it makes sense to consider the way you move and if it’s optimal for your current body

Here’s more about how I’ve changed the way I walk & run 👇🏻

We have lots of cool gadgets but in no way are we at the peak of human civilization right now

I believe everyone should toss themselves into deep waters and see what they're made of

Not sure if I wrote a thread on this- but here's the story of my Ironman Experience

How I lost all of my nutrition 2 miles into the bike

and the dark place I went over the next 17 hours👇🏽

Back in the sauna this afternoon

Used the sauna 3-5x per week for 2 years now and love the benefits I get from it

-improved my mood
-gives me a place to clear my mind
-meditation spot
-improved sleep
-better skin
-increased recovery
-shed certain toxins

I do 20 mins most days…

For me running a mile was hard in 2016

But I did it and built on it

Made big breakthroughs today

It happens slowly then all at once

Most people want to take the easy way out, look for the quick fix, take the magic pill, etc.

This stuff never works for the long term

You gotta do the work but if you do it’s worth it

Just crushed an easy 3-mile recovery run in South Florida's heat and I'm feeling great!

Every step counts - get out there and get active today

I want to help you lose weight so I try and put out as much content as I can about that
