12 Week Transformation
Week 7
Welcome to Week 7
Before beginning each new week of training, take stock of how the previous week went. Go through your Training Tracker and review any notes or portions that you were unable to complete last week. Make up anything you missed as soon as possible.
Let's get started.
BODY
- Bodyweight or strength workouts (Monday/Wednesday/Friday)
- Run (POSE practice + at least one run workout per week)
- Swim (Total Immersion practice + at least one swim workout per week)
- Paleo Diet
STYLE
- Read the Dress Shoes section of The Suits module.
- Purchase one pair of black, balmoral oxfords and a matching belt. If you already have black, you can start branching out into brown.
- Weekly grooming: clip nails, trim body hair, and any other upkeep necessary.
ATTITUDE
- Read Intelligence Gathering in the Social Engineering module.
- Gathering intelligence on people or areas isn't just for spies and con-men. From environmental cues to people's clothing and attitude to open source information and web searches, there are countless avenues where having as much information as possible is helpful.
- Practice the law of the 4 S’s - Don’t go stupid places, with stupid people, at stupid times, to do stupid things.
- This, above almost everything else, will keep you safe even if everything else fails. There's a saying within the firearms communities that says "Don't go anywhere with your gun that you wouldn't go without your gun." The idea is that if an area isn't safe, or smart to go to, going there armed (with or without your situational awareness turned all the way up), is still a bad idea. The best way to ensure a good outcome is to make good decisions in the first place.
SKILLS
- MMA training two days per week
- Combatives training one day per week
- Language Training 30-60 minutes per day
- Read the Poker and Gambling module
- Gather any training materials you want and start playing a Texas Hold ‘Em simulator until you have a feel for the game and can unconsciously decide what starting hands to play.
LIFESTYLE
- Read the Home module
- Assuming your home needs a deep clean, do that this week.
- Throw out anything you no longer need or have a use for (no hoarding; if you haven't used it in the last six months, you can probably live without it completely).
- If there are any changes or upgrades you would like to make at home, make a list of those, gather any required materials, and begin checking things off the list
- Visit at least one new cultural attraction this week
- Visit at least one new restaurant per week
