    what an excellent video. Yup, I know burn-out, opened my own restaurant in China, working 15 plus hours everyday, the first year, no days off. I said to a guy yesterday, life needs to be balanced ( I was talking about gym and mental exercises, reading thinking etc) , but do I really understand this thrown-around term ? Sounds are waves and I guess it is natural to move in waves in terms of intensity, a race car can't red line all the time right ?

    Great content and channel! Clicked this video because I also think balance can be a bullshit, and really liked your training videos! Keep up the good work

    Great video Milo! Something I've always struggled with is being too ambitious at too many things at once and burning out hard because of it! Hope your still making delicious bread rolls!

      ​@milo_atp cinnamon rolls are king. Love your home gym set up, I just made one myself and I am loving it.

    Balance and periodization is still not a boolean--there is definitely a gradient between 100-0 and 80-20 and 60-40. The decision of "how" (planning out training) and "how much" (where to land in the balance-periodization gradient) and "why" (training goals) all have one thing in common: your will and cognition. Therefore, it holds that willpower is the common denominator in judging success: the ability to apply yourself, as measured by past success. A common saying I hear is that the best determiner of future success is past success, but I think my above explanation elucidates more than simply assuming regression to the mean.
    You said you don't want to sound like you're flexing your willpower (0:45), but indeed it is your will that led you to learning and developing your training periodization system that has helped you be happier and get shit done.
    Flexing willpower is not a bad thing. In the end, it is the one thing all "flexing" comes back to. Wear your accomplishments proudly and honestly!

      This is an amazing comment, thank you so much!
      And you are right, it does take willpower to learn and develop systems. I do think that once you get going the systems themselves help alleviate some of the burden of just relying on will power

    You know what really gets you to appreciate your ability to improve and reset your goal posts? Get sick. Catch a cold or covid.
    While your forcefully recovering and moping around - you realize wow. I'm going to plan and when I'm better nothing can stop me. I guess periodizing these breaks without having them forced on you makes more sense.
    Right now, I'm on tail end of a cold, where I really can't run or lift, and man I'm itching to get back to it. Maybe tomorrow I'll be good to go. Fingers crossed.
