#881 - Christmas Special - Life Hacks, Biggest Lessons & Best Resolutions

you realize really quickly that 200 kilos, when that's your one rep max, that feels the same as 210, feels the same as 220. It's just always your one rep max. But what makes it engaging is the fact that it's slightly more than you did last week, last month, last year. And I think whenever you go the steroids equivalent in anything, there's just always the debt to pay.

In hindsight, in business again, like most of our lessons are business wise, we grew really fast and you're like, fantastic. We like really, this really steady growth rate and then like 300% and you think phenomenal, like next, next thing, next thing. But actually like going back, I'd have taken a way slower growth rate year in, year out because of that, the experience is way better. Yeah.

And finding the like, just take the PB, like just take the extra rep, just take the extra kilo week in, week out.
