The no alcohol implementation is for gaining muscle: I'm jealous of all the buffy guys around who are packed, and I want to be the same. And it's for the ladies. And of course there is the health positive outcome, lack of chest pain. So I'm looking for positive outcome on molecular level - muscle strength is all about protein, right? And clear lungs, stronger cardiovascular also sounds like a protein-level outcome.

Besides good diet and anti-drug schedule, exercising is vital. I can feel protein outcomes after running! If I don't run, I don't feel great. After I run, I can feel photosynthesis on my skin, vitamin D and all, as well as higher muscle tension. Same is for going to the gym: a sensation of positive outcome on protein level follows.

Now I have to try to do it more, especially working out. Perhaps the muscle growth can be improved? I can take workout more to exhaustion. Now I'm doing 6-8 sets (3-4 supersets) daily, but that can be increased. I can target 2 supersets per muscle group. Let's setup the schedule right now.

* chest (push) and back (pull)
* abs and legs
* back (pull) and shoulders (push)
* biceps and triceps
* neck and wrist (or extra)

And again:

* chest (push) and back (pull)
* abs and legs
* back (pull) and shoulders (push)
* biceps and triceps
* neck and wrist (or extra)

So basically I can make sure to hit every muscle group, and double the exercise. Let's see if that makes me feel better, be stronger, and not get exhausted. And yes it will take more time, but I don't spend enough time at the gym.

And bjj - I have not abandoned it completely. The subscription price is not a reason to not do it. The problem was that I was getting injured, and weaker than if I didn't do it, and my priority became muscle gain rather than bjj skill. It still is. However, I want to be overall correct and on top of my game. I don't want to be in a situation where I am weak. So, bjj seems like something I'll have to resume.

And there were a few girls there, maybe I can meet someone. I can certainly make friends there - I was going to invite some of the rolling partners to my bbj. Let's not forget, what took me off the couch and into the outside, and life, was jiu jitsu, not dancing. In order to break the cycle of loneliness and isolation I went to the gym, to bjj, not dancing. Now I have progressed to dancing must more than gym, but let's not forget my roots. BJJ is important in keeping sanity, and meeting people. So it will have to resume.

At the same time as I can't give up on weight training, either. Without weight traning, I really feel bad. I guess there needs to be a balance between dancing, working out, and jiu jitsu.
