BLOKES

My Fitness Evolution the last 4 years:

I have transitioned from running 30+ miles a week to focusing on strength.

I now lift 6 times a week, with complex movements and anaerobic conditioning.

I reduced running to about 10 miles a week and added cycling 3-5x / week.

The Dietary Shift:

As a result, I have increased my protein intake to at least 185g daily.

The Outcome:

I’ve gained muscle, increased strength, and maintained leanness. I’ve found that lifting, cycling and limited running is my ideal mix - so I feel good day in and day out. My shift to strength training, balanced anaerobic / aerobic cardio, and a high-protein diet has redefined my fitness and physique.
I approach fitness as self-experimentation (and listen to my body). This lesson has had a profound impact on how I think. “I’m not just living life; I’m a scientist who experiments with their health” is a phrase that I have been thinking about a lot recently.

We are all the Dr. in charge of our bodies; it is our responsibility to take control of our wellbeing - what works for us to feel optimized.

A couple of our favorite Blokes, @danhendo & @cameronrhanes, were recently interviewed by @joerogan for the @joeroganexperience where they talked about taking their health into their own hands, the future of healthcare, and what it’s like to partner with Blokes. ⁠
