As I celebrate my 43rd birthday, it's a time of great reflection. The theme of this year continued to be "The Year of The Opposite.” It's a good time to look back and reflect on what went well and what didn't. Health TriumphsThe year started with a momentous occasion: running my first half-marathon distance on my 42nd birthday in Las Vegas. As the year unfolded, my health milestones were significant. In September 2022, my risk of dying from a cardiac event in the next 10 years showed a dramatic drop from 16% to 2%. Even my doctors were amazed; in that same month, they stopped all my medications and my medical conditions had been resolved! This was one of the proudest days of my life. Year Of The Opposite - Travis Stoliker's Substack is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Continuing my health journey, I achieved a new low weight 177 lbs and raised my VO2 Max from "Below Average" to "High." One study suggests that this cut my risk of dying at any time in half! (Reduction in All Cause Mortality.) With a commitment to running, I logged 1,000 miles in 365 days, and I achieved a sub-7-minute mile along the way. I couldn't have imagined this a year ago when I was incapable of running a short distance around the block. Daring FeatsMy "Opposite Challenges" ranged from physically demanding feats to mind testing experiences. Running continued to be my favorite work out activity. I ran 1 mile backwards, which is way harder than I expected and also incredibly good for your knees. I tackled a 2,000,000 Scoville hot wing by completing the Hot Ones Challenge. I taught myself how to hold my breath for 2 minutes and 44 seconds and I broke my personal record in the 41 degree cold plunge by being able to stay submerged up to my neck for 14 minutes. Cold plunging is one of the best feelings that I have found in the world. I LOVE it! I will be writing a full post about it soon. Professional AchievementsIn the professional sphere, Saddleback BBQ, the restaurant I co-own, received the Michigan 50 Small Businesses To Watch Award which is the most prestigious business award in State. We also accepted the “Certificate of Pure Achievement” from the state of Michigan and we were also honored as the Greater Lansing Business Of The Year. These accolades weren't without their challenges, though. Our Pizza place on Pennsylvania had the front window smashed and the cash register stolen and a brazen robbery where our mobile pizza oven was stolen from our west side location. Luckily, we were able to recover the pizza oven in another city 50 miles away. Community InvolvementCommunity involvement is very important to me so I volunteered for new positions to serve. I joined the Community Board of Ele's Place which is an incredible non-profit that helps children that are dealing with the death of a parent. My 5 year old, Lane, started Kindergarten this year and I was appointed to Trustee of the Haslett School Board. Which also led to my first time expelling a student… not fun. I will be sharing more about my experience on the school board in a post soon. Personal Growth and SkillsOn a personal growth front, I got a Concealed Carry Pistol Permit, learned how to make donuts at Sprinkles Donuts, and even tried my hand at walleye fishing. All of these activities might seem disparate, but they're united in the fact that I would have never done these before my year of the opposite. They were pushing me out of my comfort zone and I was challenging myself. It also led me to meet new people and get a better respect for the views of others. Coping and Self-ImprovementThis year wasn't without its emotional challenges. As you may recall, every night I rate myself on a scale from -2 to +2. +2 representing an amazingly awesome day. -2 representing an awful terrible day. Luckily, last year I was able to turn my mood around quickly after my friends passing by pursuing the Year Of The Opposite. My average rating for age 41 was .72. Which meant that I was in the happy range. Unfortunately, my rating for age 42 slipped a little to .58. Looking back at my journals I can see what happened…After my first Year Of The Opposite was completed in March of 2023, I relaxed some of my rules. I drank alcohol on 18 days and I would occasionally use marijuana with friends. I was trying to test to see what impact this would have on my happiness and performance. Well, the results are in, and they aren't good. There is a inverse correlation between my happiness and me using alcohol and marijuana. My happiness ratings consistently go down in the days following my use of these substances. I was pretty surprised by how stark the effect was. TravelLast year I did a 360 review where I had friends, family, co-workers and business partners rate me and provide feedback about my performance anonymously. I then fed that information into artificial intelligence to have it create a new years resolution list. One of the things that continually came up was that I didn't travel enough. So this year we tried to travel at least once a month. We travelled to numerous places in Michigan and also visited Nashville, Chicago, North Carolina, Buffalo, Pennsylvania, Las Vegas, and Cleveland. (The Schvitz in Chicago and Cleveland are amazing. Thanks Laur!) In summaryIn summary, my 42nd year was a transformative one. I became healthier, braved new challenges, achieved professional milestones, and contributed to my community. As I turn 43, I'm not just a year older but immeasurably enriched, eagerly looking forward to what the next year has in store.

Elephant Shavings @ Odyssey Theatre Ensemble – 6.8 out of 10! Below Average! Aug 25 – Oct 1, 2023. www.latheatrebites.com

Sunday marked an exciting milestone in my personal fitness journey. For the first time, my Vo2 Max—a measure of my cardiovascular fitness—reached the 'High' category. A remarkable leap from being 'below average' to 'High' in just 13 months.In April of 2022 my VO2 Max as measured by my Apple Watch was 31.5 which put me right on the borderline between “Below Average” and “low” cardio fitness. 13 months later my reading is 47.1 climbing 15.6 points and putting me in the “high” category. I went from the 25th percentile to the 75th percentile. Year Of The Opposite - Travis Stoliker's Substack is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.The classifications come from this important study and they include Low, Below Average, Above Average, High, and Elite. * Low: less than the 25th percentile* Below Average: 25th to 49th percentile* Above Average: 50th to 74th percentile* High: 75th to 97.6th percentile* Elite: at or above the 97.7th percentileVO2 Max is the maximum amount of oxygen your body can utilize during intense exercise, serving as a measure of your cardiorespiratory fitness. According to some studies, my advancement in my personal cardio fitness, signifies a 2 to 3.9 fold decrease in all-cause mortality. In layman's terms, that means my risk of dying at any given moment has been slashed by about half or up to three-quarters. This is an astonishing change in my risk of dying. And of course I should mention, this is a population statistic, not a personal guarantee. I could still be hit by a bus tomorrow, or develop a disease that I have no control over. But it's nevertheless an impressive stride towards better health and increased healthspan. To give you some context, let's look at some other ways you can change your all-cause mortality or your risk of dying. From that chart, if you look at the “Group Comparisons” and go from “low vs high” - that is where you will see the 3.9 Hazard Ratio. And if you look at “Below Average to High” that is where you will see the 2 Hazard Ratio. This is the reduction in all cause mortality that I used above. My rating is somewhere in between those two because I was exactly on the borderline between Low and Below Average. Let's delve deeper into the comorbidity risk factors presented in this study. Hazard ratios for various conditions are as follows: Smoking at 1.41, Coronary Artery Disease at 1.29, Diabetes at 1.40, Hypertension at 1.21, and End-Stage Renal Disease at a striking 2.78.These figures indicate that having low cardio fitness could amplify your risk of dying even more than established risk factors such as smoking, hypertension, coronary artery disease, diabetes, or even end-stage renal disease.We often direct significant efforts towards encouraging people to quit smoking to extend their lifespan. This is undoubtedly important, but this data suggests that improving cardiovascular fitness should command just as much, if not more, attention. Low cardio fitness, it appears, constitutes a far more substantial risk factor for mortality. So while smoking cessation remains crucial, enhancing cardio fitness can be a game-changer in the pursuit of longevity.This puts into black and white terms how important it is to be physically fit if you want to live a long time. If you are in the “low” group and went to the “Elite” group - you could have a 5 fold reduction in all cause mortality! Let me make it even more clear. That means that if you had a group of 100 of your peers and 50 of them were predicted to die over a certain time period because you were in the “low” cardio fitness group. If you were to improve your cardio fitness and get into the Elite category, now only 10 of the 100 would die in that time period. Your chance of dying would have been decreased from 50% to 10%. That is massive. It's more than any other change in lifestyle that you can make. If your goal is longevity, as mine is, focusing on improving your cardio fitness should be your top priority. Yet I see so many of my friends arguing about what supplements to take, or which diet is best. None of those changes will have nearly the impact as improving your cardio fitness. Looking back at my numbers, I hope to keep increasing my cardio fitness. If I manage to reach the 'Elite' level, I could potentially secure another 1-fold reduction in all cause mortality. This pursuit has been my primary health objective. Enhancing cardiovascular fitness is arguably the most impactful action one can take to extend their lifespan. It surpasses the benefits of adhering to a specific diet or taking particular supplements, although those factors certainly still hold importance.When I started my health journey I had a lot of different ideas about what my goals could be. At one point I wanted to try Human Growth Hormone and Testosterone so that I could increase my muscle mass and look better with my shirt off. I have never been a very muscular person and my shoulders are quite weak. I decided that this goal was too vane and I decided that I had a bigger and much more important goal. My goal is to live a long time and die quickly. While strength is definitely correlated with long life, the use of HGH and Testosterone is not. They could actually decrease your lifespan according to some studies. Once I decided on my ultimate goal, I became very focused on my cardio fitness as it is the most important measurement that I have found that I can influence to increase my lifespan. How do you increase your VO2 Max / Cardio Fitness? The best way that I have found is what Dr. Peter Attia calls the 4x4x4. You run as fast as you can for 4 minutes, then rest for 4 minutes, then repeat that cycle 4 times. Since running has been my favorite exercise that I have found, running was my chosen form of cardio fitness. Another exercise that is great for increasing cardio fitness are Tabata's using the assault bike. Tabata's are 20 seconds of maximum effort, followed by 10 seconds of rest, for a certain number of rounds. I like to do 10 rounds but I don't often do Tabata's. The assault bike is the bike with the fan for a wheel that you see at the gym. This exercise might sound easy because you're only going for 20 second bursts, but it's a killer. I'm No DoctorIt's important to remember that while fitness is crucial for overall health, any changes in your exercise routine should always be done responsibly. If you're considering incorporating new methods like the 4x4x4 or Tabata workouts into your routine, especially if you're in the lower cardiovascular fitness categories, please consult with a fitness professional or a healthcare provider. Everyone's fitness journey is unique, and it's essential to choose exercises and regimes that suit your individual health conditions and abilities.You Can Do It! If you're interested in improving your cardio fitness, I hope that my journey will serve as an example to show you what is possible. I assure you there is nothing special or unique about what I did. The hardest part was being consistent and starting every day. I did not work out intensely where I was sore for days after. I did not push myself to the edge of my limits. I just woke up, put on my running shoes, and set out on a leisurely run. It was honestly fun once I got going. To think that it is possible for me to lower my risk of dying by a half to 3/4s in just a year - and to go from not being capable of running a quarter of a mile to completing a mile in 7:07 as a part of a 5k run - is unimaginable to me just a year ago. But I did it and you can too. I'm here to encourage you and help you along the way. Please share any feedback with me by replying to this email or commenting below. If you want to improve your cardio fitness and you want someone to be your accountability partner - I'm standing by and ready to take on that duty! You got this!

We know we told you this last week, but everyone just stay calm. We were all expecting a high flying offense that would look like it was at practice against the Jets but instead we got a close, gritty division game. We managed to kick our way out of this one (not the Kareem Hunt way) and instead of the offense having an impressive day, the defense stepped it up... YES WE KNOW IT WAS AGAINST THE JETS. But in all seriousness, players like Ed Oliver and Dane Jackson make their presence known on the defensive side, and while there weren't any touchdowns, Josh throws for another 300 yard game... YES WE KNOW IT WAS AGAINST THE JETS. The guys introduce a new power rankings segment, and just like ESPN's, it's wrong. Next, its Pats week, and for the first time in 20 years, there's a new perspective on this matchup. Its going to be about stopping the run and.... that's about it. But if there's any coach that can scheme up a plan to stop a Bills' offense, its Bill Belichick, so we need to give respect where its due. We close with a below-average and we mean BELOW-AVERAGE fantasy football waiver pick-up segment.

This episode is not the Cock-Man 2 story you were promised. We decided to invest in cliffhangers, therefore we are putting out this filler episode and next week Cock-Man 2: Die Hard-On Die will be shown for the whole world (all 5-8 listeners) to experience.  This episode is alright. Lots of rambling at the end. For those of you who do not enjoy Kyle and I's personality you probably shouldn't listen to this one or any of them. That's right I am trying to get rid of the tiny audience we don't have.    Timeline yo Intro (00:07-01:10) How we start our day (1:10-4:45) Reading Original Script (4:45-16:50) Reaction and Gameplan (16:50-30:30) Reading our New Script (30:45-38:55) Why our Script is Below Average (38:55-45:10) How alcohol shaped our adolescence (45:10-1:02:51) Outro (1:03:05-1:04:35) Clearly, no one listened to Kyle. We got a whole 6 viewers last episode and personally, I think that is too many. Follow us on Instagram or Twitter, mostly for pictures of Kyle. You can also find us on Hinge and Upwork. But to be more involved we would love if you sent us your script to read on a future episode. Send those to MandGvsScripts@gmail.com.
