Mind Pump: Raw Fitness Truth
2595: Mike Israetel Unplugged (Explicit Content)

Right now, many of us find our challenge in fitness. But if we have fitness in a pill, maybe the challenge is pick up Muay Thai or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu or boxing. That's fucking challenging. And if you're already in shape, that doesn't mean you can box, motherfucker. Get hit in the face a whole bunch. All of a sudden, there goes your catharsis. You might get into endurance stuff.

You might get into mountain biking, 50 other things to do. But fitness isn't the only thing. Every time you go to work out because it's challenging and because it's good for you, you are not going in and helping children in need. You are not hanging out with old people at old people homes or dying fucking alone.

You are not volunteering your time in the third world to help them build up the kind of structures and institutions that we have so they can have a good time. So maybe once we sort out more and more of our own problems, we can have more time and energy and desire to go out and make sense of the actual fucking world and help in a really big way.

Because in one sense, when you look at gyms right now, people are doing wonderful things to their own psychology, to their physiques, to their health. But in another sense, they're just literally wasting energy moving fucking plates up and down for no goddamn reason at all.

If we can get the chemicals to do all the fitness shit, we can open up ourselves to like two hours extra per day where you're doing anything but moving weights up and down in a fucking straight line. Which, listen, moving weights up and down in a straight line is the passion of my life. But also, there's like a lot more shit to the world that you could be doing.

I feel like I just look at our fucking inner cities for love. God, who the fuck's cleaning it up? Nobody, who the fuck is mentoring children of nobody in their lives to mentor them? Nobody is fucking. Yeah.
