Brian Johnson shares his zone-2 training data (2:44:46 this week versus his 1:17:53 six-week average) and announces Heroic Elite Training Camp, a program designed to push participants to peak energy states. The Heroic app has boosted energy 23% in 30 days; the full Coach program takes about 300 days.
Hi, this is Brian. Welcome back to another heroic plus one. It was 5:22pm as I typed this one out. I just got back from another one of my micro zone 2 workouts. It was only 8 minutes and 41 seconds. I basically did 1/2 mile loop around our property. My Sunto watch tells me it was my third micro workout of the day along with a 15 minute 39 second micro walk work workout at 1:31pm in an 18 minute 27 second microwalk workout at 10:46am to go with my longer 57 minute and 30 second sunrise burpee pull up row trail workout that ended at 7:13am now my suunto app, which I just downloaded last week to clearly track these things says I've spent 2 hours, 44 minutes and 46 seconds in zone two so far this week. With three more days in the week I'm ahead of schedule and will easily hit my 44 hour target for the week Note that's up significantly from my six week average of 1:17:53. And yes, I'm loving the clear data to support my clear 3 to 4 hours per week zone 2 target. Now I bring my bat phone with me on these walks in case I get struck by a plus one inspiration and want to stop and immediately write that one. A tip I learned from one of the world's all time best cartoonists who keeps a pad of paper near him at all times to capture any and all ideas. But I don't listen to anything while I'm out on the trail. No music, no podcasts, just the sounds of nature. I'm using these walks as pure oscillation reboot, clear the mind and continue crushing at opportunities. And the ideas are flowing. One of the ideas I'm playing around with is something called Working Title Heroic Elite Training Camp. The basic idea? Creating a next level Heroic program that is exclusively focused on helping you get into the best energetic state of your life. Now we scientifically know that our Heroic app can help you boost your energy 23% in 30 days. And we scientifically know that our Heroic Coach program also helps people change their lives or over 300 days. We've been blessed to receive thousands of extraordinary testimonials. It's something I'm really, really proud of. But what I'm thinking about developing is a program that would take you to the next next Next Next level. As in Jumbo font Next Level Years ago, I stumbled across a great line Josh Waitzkin had on his website about working with him in one of his programs he said, don't apply unless you're prepared to enter a world class training camp. That's what I'm thinking about. But that's not quite the point of this. This is I and we may or may not create that program, but if we did, I wonder what's the one thing you know you'd want to absolutely dominate? Would it be hitting your ideal weight, perhaps for the first time in decades? Optimizing your body fat percent by adding muscle and losing fat? Getting your aura, readiness and sleep scores easily and consistently into the 90s. Getting your resting heart rate easily and consistently lower than your heart rate variability. Crushing your VO2 max and getting that into elite levels. Maybe conquering chronic fatigue or a chronic disease. Trying to add a decade or three to your health span and your lifespan. And of course, forging the heroic strength that will allow us to show up most powerfully for our families and friends and communities so we can change the world together. All of the above. Something else. Think about that if you feel so inspired and if you feel really inspired, please let me us know now. We created a super simple little intake form you can click on in the plus one and let us know what you're thinking what might fire you up. I will read every single response and have it in mind as I think about architecting the prospective heroic elite training camp program. And most importantly, whether you take the moment to share your thoughts. Thanks. If you do high fives, what will you do today to get one step closer to your next, next, next level of mastery? Get on that. It's day one. We're all in. Let's go.
