My internal monologue while running a 5k on the treadmill: Ok, I've got this. Actually, this sucks ass. I'll just run for a mile. Why is this so awful? I'm still going. May as well hit two miles. That will be enough for me to feel accomplished. Wow it's hard to breathe. Why am I here? *Imagines I'm with Darren's running group in Thailand and I can't stop running or I'll look like a little bitch in front of all those hot people* Made it two miles and I can't feel my legs. Guess I'll just keep going until I die. Don't be a little bitch. Don't be a little bitch. F*ck it, I'm almost done, let's speed up and finish this shit strong. 5k done. *Dies*

If you only have 5 to 10 pounds to lose, you may not need a drastic calorie cut. You may just need a body recomp. A body recomposition essentially means losing fat and building muscle at the same time. If you want to learn how to do that, I made a video just for you. 👉 Reply "RECOMP" and i'll send it over!

Running clothes are dry fit for the very specific reason that it will absorb sweat fast and dry very fast because you will SWEAT (insert clip of Coach @Darren Liu squeezing the moisture out of his headband 💦 gross 😂) I started my morning with a 5-min warm-up walk followed by 3 sets 5-mins jog+5-min walk (2.8km). My legs were tingling, my breath felt okay... Is this what learning to run feels like? I do feel like I can push running for more than 5 minutes; will see how I do next run day. Seriously, running is a love-hate...

I would be making more progress if.... Lovely time! See you next week.

“I’d be making better progress if I could just figure out ______.” I’ll answer as many as I can on tomorrow’s call. No technical difficulties tomorrow, promise!
