Consistency Over Intensity

A discussion on consistency, intensity, and the tradeoffs between the two. The big topics discussed include how small steps compounded over time lead to big gains; why it is so tempting to over-do intensity and under-do consistency; how to determine a seven or eight out of ten and differentiate it from a nine or ten out of ten; and when it makes sense to go to the well. This one is jam packed with lots of interesting concepts and practical applications. Don’t miss it!

    Great discussion. I enjoyed learning about your two different approaches to keep track of how hard you’re pushing and ensuring you optimize for consistency over intensity.
