Running water is the most pure and simple form of magic. Fountains can radically transform the atmosphere whereever they get put. When you cut off the water to a house it falls apart almost instantly. When you take a shower your mind shifts radically and your body is soothed. None of this is fully explained by science.

See you in the showers bros

Sunlight does more than produce vitamin D.

People are starting to figure it out a little bit with red light therapy shit but I think there is even a whole lot more to it. I think sunlight has extreme properties that help you get fit. The greeks all worked out naked because they knew it.

From an evoluionary perspective it makes complete sense too. You have organisms bathed in sunlight as they evolve, it stands to reason that they would evolutionarily incentivized to put this to work for themselves.

You can create a super compensation of glycogen storage by depleting it. Meaning almost all carbs eaten after are stored as glycogen. Will make your muscles swell up even when you're cutting.

Food is more than calories, and you are literally what you eat. The food you eat transforms you. Which is why vegans are essentially meek faggots even if they are roidtrannies whilst carnivores are usually deranged lunatics. I believe that my ideal diet consists of offal, fruits, muscle meat, eggs and dairy.

Essentially just eat whatever steppe nomads would've eaten + fruit. Maybe plus rice. Reducing food into just calories, macros and micros quelled the ritual of eating.

Also this. Sun is divine. Most non-nocturnal animals bathe in the sun. It literally is the source of life on earth. Just don't overcook yourself its still radiaton

Old school guys like Arnold or even modern ones like Rich Piana had weird beliefs.

Why do you think the rich elite have all those strange rituals and sects?

you can get away with being vegan if you don't coom. breath heavy if you feel like jerking off.

-Maximal isometrics build muscle, ~10 seconds is similar in stimulus to 1 full dynamic set with 85% 1RM.
-Full body every day is optimal, but you have to do only 1 set per muscle and 3-5 reps per set, with ~1RIR if you wanna recover and adapt.
-High protein intakes(>2g/kgBW) relative to overall caloric intake are superior for body composition, and some people's genetics simply require higher intakes.
-Meal frequency doesn't matter, just eat enough protein and it will all be used for anabolism even if you only eat one meal a day(preferably around your workouts).
-Cool breeze increases your neural drive and muscle activation.
-Too much heat decreases your neural drive and muscle activation.
-Lunar gazing lowers stress.

Respiratory muscle training. It's the most "obscure" thing there is that is 100% proven effective.

Literally all you need are squat, bench, dead, press. The physique training like this gives you will be the best physique possible. It will not make you look like a gym rat. That's an artificial aesthetic standard and also disproportionate, similar to a roider. Gym bros have too big chest, arms, shoulders.
Whereas just training the basics will make you look like a strong version of yourself. This will make people think you are a naturally strong, high -T, physically active manly man. As opposed to the gym rat physique which will make people think you are a vain prettyboy with questionable genetics and artificial useless muscle. Which is true to an extent. You are only as strong as your weakest link. Someone who is weak in the compounds likely has lots of weak links. So your arms being really big is really just a bunch of useless meat if your legs, back, etc are weak.
