That is the even worse option. Honestly, I did not have a good opinion about Superman.

[Matrix]

Yes lol that man is better without the sub

[Deadpool]

Definitely, immediate ban if we see a user with Superman name
We must keep the world safe.

Lol yes , no risk whatsoever

[Azriel]

I mean…I’m enrolled.

I missed the physical strength and durability part.

To me the massive healing and restoration combined with peak performance was the ticket in one sub I was looking for. But this with LOTS or Paragon could do the trick.

[Yazooneh]

I’ve finished my first cycle of this title and I was very skeptical after the first loop or so:

• Best sub I ran so far in terms of alignment and enjoyment and overall confidence (formerly Emperor black)

• Meditative states deepening

• INSANE LEVELS of skill development, this is the pinnacle of skill development tech

• recovery like no other, serum X in a bottle

• pondering of life’s karmic laws and how I can maximize them

• wanted levels of verbal fluency, geared towards power, righteousness, and winning

The biggest results I noticed :

• instant upheaval of my workout routine and changing of it

Formerly, I would wake up starving and thirsty, walk for 35-40 minutes to the gym with my gym bag, train for hours starting with warm ups and stretches into intense mobility work into a 45-1 hour session of bag work or shadow boxing

Ever since hero, I make sure to eat right and drink right so nothing bothers me mentally, quit going to the gym every day and went to the park nearby days in a row, jumped straight to the juice and shadow boxed instead of the grueling warmups and mobility work.

The biggest result, however; is that my mind began to find ways in which I’ve allowed others to disrespect me and I let them slide off it and I went back and corrected it all after a strong push to, there’s even this person that has been terrorizing me online and trying to ruin me that I allowed to run amuck for a year. On hero, they came and commented on a website blog we created and I knew enough is enough

I went after him, finding all his circles and exposing him with a message on what he did.

He handled it so poorly that he is now friendless, and my name is clear.

Strategically it was perfection too, we slowly poked and prodded and found him to be a lot more sensitive than he dishes out; once we found his weaknesses and what irks him, we destroyed.

Strength Results:

@RagnarLothbrok

I had 7 papers at my office that needed to be thrown away, so i tested grip strength with tearing up the papers.

7 to 14 than 14 to 28 and than 28 to 56 and somehow i manage to tear up 56 pages, the most i could do last week was 20 somethings, it may seem insignificant but its more than double strength increase.

What gave me those results:
Hero and Heracles module for sure
SPS: Endocrine System maybe, because the increased testosterone which means increased strength

Meditation on inevitable death should be performed daily. Every day when one’s body and mind are at peace, one should meditate upon being ripped apart by arrows, rifles, spears and swords, being carried away by surging waves, being thrown into the midst of a great fire, being struck by lightning, being shaken to death by a great earthquake, falling from thousand-foot cliffs, dying of disease or committing seppuku at the death of one’s master. And every day without fail one should consider himself as dead

@RagnarLothbrok

And every day without fail one should consider himself as dead

Clearly the dude that wrote Hagakure had a thing for zombies.

[Seneca]

I know you’re joking, but this is one of the best meditations. It has a way of cutting through the BS to what is truly important to you.

Are you hesitating to clean your room?

Meditate on your death and imagine your family having to come to sort your stuff.

What experience do you want them to have?

Do you want them to find a neat place where it’s easy to clean and pack up your stuff? Or do you want them to be disgusted by your living conditions?

[summit]

I completely agree that meditation on your mortality is essential for development.

And I like aspects of your analogy of leaving a clean room. It echoes the concept – if I’m remembering correctly, it’s been awhile since reading Hagakure – that a samurai should have all of his affairs in order as if he’d die that same day.

A samurai needed to be prepared to do what needed doing, even if it meant his death. (Not that I agree with all samurai customs.)

It was a level of responsibility and accountability that doesn’t seem to be common. Especially not among people who don’t consider their own inevitable deaths.

That said, and I can’t stress this enough…

…if there’s a dead guy walking around, it’s 100% a zombie.

Hero Results:

@RagnarLothbrok

Im writing this post after some reflection about the muay thai workout i did this morning, we did a lot of heavy bag work today and i noticed a few things, my strikes were harder and more powerful, my technique was more refined and sharp and my movement was more fluid less rigid.

This results are all very pleasing hut the most important thing is the separation of the kind from the body, the state of the mind shall not affect the body and the state of the body shall not affect the mind, the mind should observe what the body is doing but not interfere, let the body do what the body is capable of doing.

The goal is to let the body fight on its own, the mind should remain silent while fighting, while working on the heavy bag i noticed this separation, i kicked and my mind told the body “turn a little more” and the body listened, i kicked again and every kick the mind observed and told the body how to refire the technique and the body listened.

The mind didn’t make the body kick, the body kicked on it’s own, the mind just told the body how to do it better.

[BeingNeo]

So I had space for a third sub with NR and Khan St3 and since i’ve been meditating on my fear of failing for the past few weeks, I decided to go for it.

A bit of background, i’ve had many messages through dreams in my life, and while I don’t maintain a journal, I do remember the ongoing patterns. One pattern that has been consistent since childhood is me finding myself in a scary/dangerous situation and running. As a child i used to have many dreams running away from something in the dark, the associated feelings were always fear.

The frequency of those dreams reduced quite a bit as a grew up, but would still have them rarely. But never had a dream where I willingly would step ahead to face the challenge even knowing this would mean my end.

Ran one loop before going to bed last night, and in 36 years of my existence, for the first time I had a dream where I faced two of my fears and in one of them even stepped ahead to face it all on my own so my friends and family can run to safety.

I woke up feeling reborn, not happy, not sad, a bit tired and disoriented but almost like my reality has been shifted internally. I feel something has changed, but I feel very drained, at the same time I do feel a sense of love within. It also gave me wisdom that you never eliminate fear, you just cultivate love so strong that it fuels your drive to face any adversity for the ones you love.

Thank you for this sub, I have struggled with the old reality since childhood and it has kept me from achieving so many things in my life.

[summit]

Do you guys know the one about the samurai and the tea master?

If you don’t, it’s worth taking a few minutes to read. It’s a take on facing death/fear, which seems to be par for the course along the Hero’s journey.

(I haven’t listened to the audio. Reading it was faster.)

Hero/Muay Thai custom results:

@RagnarLothbrok

Yesterday at the muay thai workout, my trainer said to me things that made me assure that i am not delusional, i really do progress at an astonishing rate

His words: im astonished by your progress, really, every workout you come better than before,you are here only one month and you know how to hit and you have very good timing, you are calm under pressure, really good"

He told me this in the rest between sparring rounds, after he told me this i sparred with someone and he punched me too hard in face, i should have stayed calm, but i was furious, could not control myself, i released a left hook to his head and he dropped on the ground, i was shocked, didn’t think i have som much power in me.

I apologized, we talked, the trainer talked with us, everything good.

Than after the workout is finished, im heading out of the gym, the trainer asked me “do you plan to compete?” I told him “yes of course, this is what im here for” so he replied “good, your improvement is very fast”

I didn’t think it was possible to improve so rapidly, thanks @SaintSovereign and @Fire for this amazing program.

[RagnarLothbrok]

From yesterday’s session:

@RagnarLothbrok

Yesterday i did a boxing sparring with one of our guys in the gym, he is really good at boxing he did boxing for 6 months and muay thai for 2 months.

When i first started training, i couldn’t hit him not even once, he dodged everything and he hit me many times.

Yesterday, while he still had the advantage, i hit him many times and dodged a lot of his strikes, he told me i improved by a fuck ton and that it was really difficult for him.

This is my first month of training, he is training for 8 months.

Another thing is that during sparring i innovate moves on the go, could he with the help of Nouveau RICH.

I feel fearless during sparring, cold and calculated.

[BeingNeo]

People were saying Khan St1 is hard and may cause intense recon… I sailed through that but Hero… now this sub really breaks you down before it builds you up. Trying to ride through the recon 🥲

[summit]

Noticed a heightened dexterity and awareness when manipulating a blade today…

I was in the kitchen, about to slice into a chunk of tri-tip with my trusty chef’s knife, and something came over me: I had to see how easily I could manipulate the orientation of the blade using only one hand.

So, I spent a good few minutes intimidating the hell out of that tri-tip as I worked up to a decent transition speed while incorporating some dynamic movement.

What stood out to me was how fast I got comfortable with it: being able to clearly notice the minute finger placements that would change the rotation of the blade more easily, and not being worried about slicing a finger off after a few rotations.

Not a normal part of my training to manipulate chef’s knives…it was fun.

[Evolver]

For real bro, the same stuff happened to me as well.

That short kitchen knife felt real comfortable.

I stopped HERO now, so the effect happened only once fr me
