I know it's gonna be tough path, not everyone want to choose it.. you will miss social life, friends, families, partying, foods everything may be they will feel like you are a boring guy, Completely focusing on your prep... but trust me one day all the struggles, hardworks will payoff... So never give up, stay on your track cuz not everyone can do it, you are unique one..

15 days. Experiment completed..

I started this because I wanted to stop just consuming information and actually test it on myself.

Morning light. Coffee timing. Less scrolling. Breathwork. Training. NSDR. Recovery. Sleep.

Did everything change my life? No.

Some things genuinely helped. Some surprised me. Some made very little noticeable difference — and some probably need much longer than 15 days to judge properly.

But the biggest takeaway wasn’t one protocol.

It was becoming more aware of how I spend my energy, attention, and recovery every day.

Information is useful.

But eventually, you have to stop consuming and start experimenting.

Take what works for you. Leave what doesn’t.

15 days done. The experiment ends, but a few of these habits are staying.

Day 15/15. The experiment is complete.

15 days of testing morning light, caffeine timing, less scrolling, breathwork, training, recovery, NSDR, sleep habits and more.

Some things worked better than I expected.

Some didn’t impress me.

And some surprised me.

But now it’s time to stop relying on feelings.

Day 1 vs Day 15.

What improved. What didn’t. What I’ll keep. What I’ll drop.

Final results coming next. 📊

Day 14/15 Recovery Day.

Today wasn’t about pushing harder.

Just a light walk, some mobility, good food, hydration, and proper sleep.

Simple, but necessary.

Because recovery isn’t time away from performance.

It’s part of performance.

One day left.

Day 13/15 🥊

Martial arts has taught me something simple:

When someone is in front of you, moving, attacking, reacting — your mind has no space to wander.

You have to be present.

Watch. Breathe. Read. React.

That’s why combat training has always felt different to me.

It doesn’t just train the body.

It forces the mind into the moment.

2 days to go.

Day 12/15 ☕️

I’m not giving up coffee.

I’m just trying to make sure today’s energy doesn’t steal from tonight’s recovery.

For me, the experiment isn’t about whether coffee is “good” or “bad.” It’s about finding the timing that gives me the focus and performance I want without compromising my sleep.

Only 3 days left.

☕️ What time is your last coffee of the day?

Day 11/15 — The Bad Day Test.

A routine is easy when you’re motivated, rested and everything goes according to plan.

The real test? Can you still keep the basics when the day goes sideways?

Today wasn’t about perfection. Just getting outside, moving, managing caffeine, breathing, and protecting sleep.

Maybe the best routine isn’t the one you follow on your best days.

It’s the one that survives the difficult ones.

4 days to go. 🥊

Day 10/15 🥊

I still want to look good. But that’s no longer enough.

At 30, I want my body to perform — strength, power, endurance, mobility and the ability to fight, run, jump and move well.

The question I’m starting to ask isn’t just:

“How do I look?”

It’s “What will my body still be capable of 10, 20, 30 years from now?”

Train for capability. The appearance can come with it.

5 days to go.

Day 9/15 — NSDR / Yoga Nidra 🧘‍♂️

Tried 10–20 minutes after a heavy training day.

Did it feel like getting proper sleep? No.

But I genuinely felt different afterwards — calmer, lighter, and mentally quieter.

No magic claims. Just something I tried, felt, and will keep exploring.

6 days to go.

Day 8/15 📊 — Halfway check.

One week of changing the routine. Now I want to see whether anything actually changed.

Today I’m repeating my original performance benchmarks and comparing them with Day 1.

Better numbers? I’ll show them.

Worse numbers? I’ll show those too.

I’m not trying to prove a protocol. I’m documenting the experiment.

Day 1 vs Day 8.

7 days to go.
