GYMLESS. FREE. What gives?
Don’t get me wrong, I’ll always love the gym. After spending several years focusing on powerlifting it would be tough not to. But after moving away from the sport, I’ve realized that the “gym”, as we know it, isn’t the end-all, be-all when it comes to fitness.
I’ve come to love simplicity, and even more so, efficiency. The idea of being “gymless” is sort of my own private (and not particularly funny) inside joke; you’re never really gymless. If you have a body, you have a gym. As for being free, I’ll take the most relevant definitions from dictionary.com: 1. enjoying personal rights and liberty; 2. exempt from external authority, interference, restriction; 3. able to do something at will; 4. clear of obstructions or obstacles…and the list goes on. My idea of being free is having the ability to choose your path, and doing what you need to do to see it through.
That being said, GYMLESS. FREE. at its core, is about lifestyle design. Maybe I’m not the best guy to talk about designing a lifestyle that you love because I haven’t quite achieved it yet. But know what? I’m going to.
