#HenryHealthTips : Frequency Over Duration

About a week ago, I came across a conversation that was focused on the methods that someone must put in action to be most successful. The conversation was beyond the typical spiel "Put in work, see results. You get out what you put in." That is classic sound advice, because its true but this focus was deeper in detail of that very concept. HOW do you do this most effectively?






Frequency over duration. What this means is how often you do something is key. Duration is a gift. It means you've set a focus, a goal and you're working towards it. Now you must practice Frequency over it and work on your goal every single day to some extent. Bruce Lee said, "I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who practiced one kick 10,000 times." 






As a student, you will be much more effective if you spent at least 15 minutes of studying a day, rather than studying 2 times a week for 2 hours or more. If you have more than 15 minutes of a day's time to dedicate to studying, (being that it is a priority) then spend that time. As a gym goer or a fighter, if you don't have the time to spend that 1 hr 1/2 for at least 3 days out of the week due to other priorities, get creative.


Find out how to be frequent,  creatively. This happens based on your own imagination. As a fighter, if you can't get to class to hit the big bag, spend at least 10-15 minutes shadowboxing at the house. As a runner, if there's too much snow outside causing poor running conditions, (S/o to my New England Runners) improvise and put together a cardio and core workout you can do in your living room. Keep putting in work towards your goal every single day, no matter how long. The Glo Up Never Stops.
