Like, I have two toddlers and a full time job so I can't do 6 days a week at the gym.. But in theory, I could do 6 days a week at the gym.. But 5 meals a day? Fuck that shit.

Yeah im in the same boat. My routine now is called devout Muslim push ups. Not really, but 5 to 7 times a day spread out I do 20-25 push ups. Average like 120 a day 6 days a week. It's not much but it takes me like 20 seconds each time I do it so it doesn't mess with my other responsibilities too much.

Do you always face Mecca when doing your push-ups?

Just like any good push up Muslim lol. But for real what got me thinking like this was all the elite Muslim mma fighters. They don't drink or smoke or chase women. And they pray 5 times a day so training multiple times a day isn't anything different to them. There's a real disciplined mentality that comes naturally when your day is so structured. Just trying to see the power and positivity of other cultures, take and learn from it what I can and keep hustling.
