“Why Men Love War”

January 25, 2019 by J.R. Cambo Leave a Comment

There is something primal about war.

Men were meant to fight. We thrive in an environment where violence trumps passivity.

Deep within our biological makeup is a tendency to fight. We must hunt, kill, win, and mate.

This instinct has driven the evolution of mankind.

But despite the outlets of today’s environment- men must fight. We must aim to compete and conquer.

Biology makes us. And war, it shapes us.

What most people can’t understand,” Heirs said, gently picking up each tiny rabbit and placing it in the nest, “is how much fun Vietnam was. I loved it. I loved it, and I can’t tell anybody.

Building the Back of an Adonis

January 18, 2019 by J.R. Cambo Leave a Comment

A thick back is an icon of physicality.

It means that you are serious about training and not simply a show body with a glimpse of the summer month’s motivation. It takes time to build thick slabs of back muscle and even slower than its progress, is what you can see in the mirror.

The making of a big, freaky back produces real-world function and makes world champion bodybuilders.

Building the back of an adonis will command the respect of an elder statesman. An icon in the gym. [Read more…]

All Books of 2018 (each described in 1 sentence)

January 8, 2019 by Tony Francisco Leave a Comment

Describing a year’s worth of reading with one sentence is a proven way to distill the key ideas, main concepts, and major takeaways.

Incorporating this practice without notes reinforces the idea that knowledge without action is meaningless.

If you cannot summarize what you read, you cannot take action on that information. Then what you read is useless.

The path to success is massive, determined action. – Tony Robbins

The Simply Scientific Way to Proper Nutrition

Hello friends,

As I continue to attack the puzzle of nutrition, the more I realize the simplicity of proper nutrition.

You see, healthy eating is simple. It is perhaps the simplest thing regarding nutrition that we already know.

But there are so many other things, ideas, documentaries, bad guys, ideologies, and traditions that help to mystify this process.

I just saw this TEDx video by Dr. Mike Isratael and he dissolves the science by looking at the sum of the evidence, conclusions based on a body of studies. After digesting these volumes of work, he makes some profounding conclusions, which are, surprisingly simple. [Read more…]

What is Character?

December 25, 2018 by Tony Francisco Leave a Comment

The word character has lost its true meaning. Today, it is thought of as a novel trait we know we should have but can’t define in a meaningful way. We say things like “men of good character” but we mistakenly define it as a man of good qualities or of good values. The term we use today is more closely linked to a person’s personality.

Character is something different. Warren Susman researched the rise and fall of the concept of character during the 1800s and wrote that it was a keyword in the vocabulary, but it was described as something men would have to strive to attain.

Good character was something that came from within and a person of good character was a person of noble virtue.

Their actions yielded their character: what they did was who they were.
