You have your head on straight...

Good points to discuss. I have always found it interesting from a totally scientific standpoint (and literal one too) that their are essential proteins, essential fats but technically no essential carbs. I am on board with the high protein/fat and fiber diet outlook. As a competitive (drug-free) bodybuilder, I can vouch for the diet points mentioned in the article.

Focus on what you are doing and block out distraction.

Great post as always and a much-needed read for me! I have found that at times I am my best self when faced with huge challenges. When I went through chemotherapy I was very in tune with my "gut" and had a keen sense of where I was and what I had to do all the while keeping a weird sense of humor about the whole ordeal. Yes, your post was manly indeed.

I started getting up a half hour prior to my wife and son to read and gather my thoughts. Now I want to build on it. Thanks Chad!

Sometimes we need reminders of the little things that can quickly add up.

Joe D. is right - much wisdom. I can empathize. Going through cancer and war at a young age will accelerate your life education - but I am still making mistakes and learning everyday. Thanks Chad!

I have also bought into the notion of buying more quality (a few items) versus buying a lot of cheap stuff (what I used to do). More people (especially men) need a these pointers.__Thanks!

Individuals are always amazed at how other lifts benefit from real, full ROM leg work. Good stuff.

Yes, I second that your writing is just getting better and better each week. Your site has become a great source of great ideas in fitness and life.

Awesome post! You just keep getting better and better. I understand that these are inspirational and not songs to amp you up. I get it. Great list and commentary. Your writing is superb!

However, some is rehashed today but relabeled and reclaimed by others. For example: FST-7 is big right now but all it is is a modified version of Vince's 8 x 8 system! Great post.

I can't tell you how many times I am asked advice on this very subject and most trainees scoff at the advice I give them. Gaining power and lean muscle isn't the latest and greatest "secret" out there and does not require drugs. People simply refuse to believe that these basic, time-tested principles are still what is required.
