Ax & Yoke | Chopping Wood and Carrying Water Ax & Yoke

Could eating only when the sun is up really make a difference in your health and longevity?  The research says that time-restricted eating can have a profound effect on your health.  In this episode, Jeff share's what he's learned over the last month from trying this new approach.

It finally snowed in February!  I realize that sounds funny but it's been a very warm February by Nebraska standards.  The fresh 3 inches of snow provided the perfect opportunity to get outside and play in the snow, except this time Jeff did it in nothing but a swimsuit to do some self experimentation he and Zack have been working on for the last couple of weeks.  

Who's voice do you hear in your head when you want to eat a donut?  Or when you don't want to get out of bed?  Or when you just don't feel like giving your all?  In this episode we talk the value of intentionally developing those voices so you can better hold to your own personal standards.

Welcome back for season 3 of the Ax & Yoke.  We're starting this season with a little project to help Steve become more uncompromising with the standards he's set for himself.  Like many of us, Steve knows what he wants to do in order to operate at his highest level, but for some reason or another just doesn't do the work.  Zack and Jeff are going to help Steve get it done once and for all.

Isn't working out an hour a day enough?  Maybe not, if we're sitting in a chair all day. Today we talk about a book by Katy Bowman who encourages us to begin moving more during the day and to not sweat the hard workouts.

To man the rudder is to keep the balance of the vessel in check.  Going too far in any direction leads to trouble.  When developing our character we must balance what's in our nature with the version of ourselves we chose to show the world.
