If you are a founder, go to the gym today

If you are a bootstrapped founder, are around the $5.000-10.000 MRR mark and have never been in the gym: Stop everything you do, try to get your business on (semi)-autopilot and get the frick in the gym. The mental clarity you lack from not going to the gym will seriously block your growth. I’m aware that when you just start out getting into a healthy workout routine can be extremely hard. But once you hit the 5K mark there’s really no excuse to put your health first for a while. If you are in this bracket and not yet in the gym - gtf in the gym and thank me later.

Today, I had 24H no food only water and just cleared my deadlift PR 110kg (242lbs) 6x reps. I am feeling like on top of the world when fasting.
