Quaranturnt Day 35 - All That Junk Inside That Trunk

Gooooood morning Quaranturnt Crew,

A few of you asked why I’m asking you to share this with your friends. Am I trying to make money out of this? Do I expect to achieve some sort of fame? Definitely no, and I’m pretty much as famous as I expect I ever will be. 

I’m doing any of this and asking people to share for 3 reasons:

• Community
  It is so satisfying to create these workouts, hear from so many of you that you’re doing them, and engage in the many resulting conversations about fitness. I love learning about this stuff and sharing that with people is like baking for your friends. From you I hear excitement for workouts and gratitude for the healthy activities, and that gives me purpose in these all-too-often-described “uncertain times”.
  
  
  
• Identity
  Fitness is part of who I am. I am a mind and I’m a body, so expressing that second half through a concrete set of writing, interactions, and videos is so satisfying. Humans love things that verify to us that we are who we want to be, so of course I love this.
  
  
  
• Stability [My Self-Centered Assumption]
  Look at where we are here, people don’t know what day of the week it is, much less when we’ll be safe again or if any of the real world will be left when we are. It may be a small piece of your day, but I keep telling myself that this daily email gives some stable land in this tumultuous ocean. I can’t help but assume someone will have an emotionally hard day and be able to rely on nothing else but this workout to get them through. This is why I’ve been committed to 100% consistency. I want to give something to the world that is stable, reliable, and healthy. 

So maybe it looks like just a workout group, but to me it is so much more. This is why I’m asking to share, because it helps me get through and just maybe it will help someone else get through even better than when this all started.

If you read through all that, then here, have this as a reward. And just imagine what it might be like to give this kid a big hug right now. ​

Here is the IG Post.
