How to Build Mental Toughness: The Anti-Fragile Mindset

September 24, 2020 by Chad Rodgers Leave a Comment

The Anti-Fragile Mindset I’ve been thinking quite a bit of how important and how rare “toughness” and “resiliency” are in these most recent and uncertain times. In the book, “Antifragile – Things that Gain from Disorder”, Nassim Taleb @nassim_n_taleb details how all areas of our life are either fragile or antifragile to outside stressors and obstacles. The […]

How to Get Shredded 101: Set a Target

September 6, 2020 by Andrew Ferreira Leave a Comment

Getting shredded and a psychedelic trip are quite different; but, they are important in what they can teach us about goal setting. Upon ingesting LSD or psilocybin, your sensory perception becomes overloaded with everyday life.  The banal manifests its beauty – the miraculous bloom of flowers, the radiant glow of your girlfriend’s smile, the serenity […]

Memento Mori: What It Means to Me Seven Years Later

August 16, 2020 by Andrew Ferreira Leave a Comment

Death is like thunder.  You know it’s there but afar in the distance.  But, it comes not with a bang but a whisper.   Those were the opening words I spoke at my grandfather’s funeral when he passed three years ago.   For some reason, death has always intrigued me.  Still, in this moment, I […]

How to Build Discipline: Find Your Rhythm

July 20, 2020 by Andrew Ferreira Leave a Comment

There is a rhythm in nature. Watch a lion hunt and a gazelle graze. The gazelle grazes sheepishly. It is never centered in its breath because it must always be aware of what the lion is doing. Where is the lion? Am I in danger of being attacked? Constant alterations of grazing and fight/flight responses. […]

How to Build Discipline: Celebrate Your Small Wins

July 19, 2020 by Andrew Ferreira Leave a Comment

219.8 I’ve been hunting weighing under 220 lbs since this journey began at the start of COVID. It’s been an interesting experience and I’ve been fortunate to come out the other side better, harder, and a different version of myself. In a sense, how I’ve done it is I’ve worked to make myself more “antifragile.” […]

How To Build Discipline: Why You Must Show Up Everyday

July 13, 2020 by Andrew Ferreira Leave a Comment

It’s piercing. Picture a boa constrictor collapsing on helpless prey. Slowly, inch by inch, your breath escapes, the tension rises. It doesn’t hurt until the end. Imagine the moment a lion finishes a zebra. You tap, you bow, you say thank you. I haven’t missed a day of Jiu Jitsu since I began. I’ve been […]

How to Build Discipline 101: Start Journaling

July 10, 2020 by Andrew Ferreira Leave a Comment

I have a question I need you to answer: are you a looney liberal or a cranky conservative?  Good.  The answer isn’t important; just realize that if you lean more left or right, that’s part of your framework in which you view the world.  Ok, let’s move on from politics, yikes. When you consider your […]

July 9, 2020 by Andrew Ferreira Leave a Comment

Raise your hand if you think you know how to defend yourself? Hand raised? Cool, I ask for 30 seconds of your time; walk with me through this scenario. Drinks and dinner with your wife were lovely. Great cocktails, even better conversation, and maybe, just maybe, you’re going to get lucky tonight. Out pops a […]

A Review: The Testosterone Optimization Therapy Bible

February 19, 2018 by Andrew Ferreira 1 Comment

At some point, our lives were full of zest and relentless ambition. “Tomorrow” excited us. The challenges and struggles were met with virility and strength. Any obstacles were overcome with uninhibited confidence. An attitude that yells, “I can, I have, and I will.” Life was difficult but easy at the same time. And then one […]

How to Lose Fat 101: Build A Breakfast For Peak Performance

February 18, 2018 by Andrew Ferreira Leave a Comment

I’ve had an interesting relationship with breakfast, the oft proclaimed most important meal of the day. It may be but it also may not be necessary for certain individuals. My abandonment of breakfast came as I became a Leangains disciple and soon-to-be zealot for intermittent fasting. I even wrote a book on it. For a […]
