The best drug for focus is sleep. The best drink for energy is water. The best drug to prevent aging is weight lifting. The best drug for mood is a phone free walk outside. Combine all 4 and you have a protocol for living your best life.

"Make sure to pat the short ribs dry before searing." "Do this in batches if there is not enough room."
How to make perfect braised short ribs: Ingredients: 4-8 beef short ribs 4 cups beef bone broth 2 cups red wine 1 yellow onion 2 celery sticks 2 carrots 4-5 cloves of garlic 2 bay leaves 5 sprigs thyme 1 sprig rosemary 3 tbsp tomato paste 2 tbsp cold butter Oil or tallow for searing Salt & pepper Season short ribs well on all sides with salt and pepper. Roughly chop the onions, celery, carrots and garlic, and set aside. Heat a dutch oven with some oil or tallow over high heat, then sear the short ribs on all sides. Make sure to pat the short ribs dry before searing. Do this in batches if there is not enough room. After searing, discard any burnt oil, but do not get rid of the fond on the bottom of the pot. Add a bit more oil or tallow, then add the vegetables and cook on medium heat, until soft (about 5-7 minutes). Add the tomato paste, stir well and cook for about 3 minutes until it starts to caramelize. Add the wine, and let it reduce by about half, while scraping the fond off the bottom of the pan. Add the thyme, rosemary, bay leaves and the short ribs back in. Pour in beef broth until all the short ribs are mostly covered. Bring back to a boil, cover, and bake at 350 for about 2.5 hours, or until they are tender. Once they are tender, remove the lid, and cook for another 30 minutes. Remove the short ribs as well as the herbs. Stir in 2 tbsp of cold butter and stir well. This is great just like this, but you can optionally add a step to thicken the sauce. You can stir in a slurry with flour, corn starch or arrowroot starch mixed with water, and mix well. You can also just continue to simmer the liquid (after the ribs have been removed) until it thickens. Add the ribs back in at the end and give them a baste to make sure they are still hot. Either way, these will be fantastic. Serve over mashed potatoes and enjoy!

"Why everyone stopped buying Lululemon"...
NEW LONG FORM VIDEO: Why everyone stopped buying Lululemon Lululemon went from a single store to a global brand that helped redefine how millions of women dressed outside the home. By becoming one of the biggest names in yoga apparel and athleisure, the company eventually reached a stock price of more than $500 in 2023. But over the next few years, things began to change. The brand faced growing competition, controversy, and slowing momentum, while its stock fell dramatically from its peak. So how did the company that helped define the entire athleisure industry go from seemingly unstoppable growth to one of the biggest declines in its history? And could there actually be a silver lining? This is the rise and fall of Lululemon.

Texas running. Last week: 90s. This morning: 63° I could definitely get used to this. 3 miles followed by 5 hill sprints to finish it off. Cooler weather, faster legs, better vibes.

The American Record stays. Here's why: 60 with a dew point of 55...at 7am...Building to 65 with the same dew point... They'd have to be in 2:02:30-2:03:30 fitness to run under the American Record. Could I be wrong? Wouldn't be the first time... but I don't see that level of fitness from Americans just yet. Not from those in Chicago. If the weather holds... so does the American Record.

"Stronger athletes don't just jump higher. They use their joints differently."
Strength training has a long list of benefits…increasing total force output, improving robustness, and reducing injury risk. But it can also help shape the way an athlete moves, including how they sprint and how they jump. In this study, athletes with greater relative

Potato crusted quiche Start by cooking some your protein of choice: bacon, sausage, ground beef, etc Shred a few russet potatoes with a cheese grater, ring the liquid out with a kitchen towel, mold it into a greased dish for the crust, and season with salt and pepper (you can also by pre shredded potatoes) Cook this by itself first for about 20 minutes at 450 to start getting it crispy While this is cooking, scramble 6 eggs, chopped up bacon, a splash of milk, grated parmesan, and salt + pepper You can literally add whatever you want here; any vegetables, any kind of cheese, any meat would work here. You can also use cream or greek yogurt instead of milk. When the crust comes out, knock the oven down to 375, and pour in the egg mixture. Bake until cooked through. You’ll know its done when you can stick a knife through it and no residue sticks to the knife Some other options to add are spinach & mushrooms, peppers & onions, or whatever you want!
