Your body just doesn’t want to be as lean as necessary to get on a bodybuilding stage. It will revolt.
But when my progress began to stall, I started adding in some junk in order to keep growing. By the time I began a food journal on October 16, I was up 10 pounds. A month later I had gained another 12 pounds.
The only way to prevail is to rage forward. To go berserk on the inertia. To change and molt and grow.
I was STOKED.
I’d just gotten a call from a casting director offering me the lead role in a martial arts-driven action movie–with Tom Sizemore (Natural Born Killers) and James Hong (Blade Runner)–as a replacement for the original actor who was marooned in Asia.
Are you thinking about trying something new? Are you putting it off because you’re scared? I know how you feel.
This is a guest blog post by Ashley Platz, a powerful actress and formidable yoga teacher (among many other things) whom I admire very much. We met while working on a film a couple of years ago, and she is always up to something interesting. This is her account of her first 10-day silent meditation, and I am honored to have her contribute to the Polyblog.
Watch me pull an ugly 405, compare goals to a character from the Mighty Boosh, and apply Peter Thiel tactics to decide what’s next.
