A Week Of Opposites: Contrasting Troubling Thoughts With The Thrill Of Working Out

What is Effective Philosophy? Juan and I simplify hard to grasp concepts into pragmatic takeaways that can be applied to every day life (fitness, goal setting, work, parenting, travel, hobbies, finances, etc.,). 2 x episodes a week. We go live every Wednesday with our meanderings, plus an extra as a more casual conversation with a guest or between ourselves.

Description
Chapters

Juan has been killing life back in the gym but I've been having a shit time of it.

In Episode #305 of 'Meanderings' Juan and I discuss: why Juan loves training after being away, the difference between PB's and PR's, why Juan believes it is impossible to over train, my experience of joining a gym chain after calisthenicing for the last 5 years, why I don't want to (but may will be) hitting on girls in the gym and why you should also do the opposite of normal!

As always, we hope you enjoy. Mere Mortals out!
