I've been reflecting on the push, pull, squat, hinge quadrant idea.

I'm starting to think this might be the answer to what I would tell my younger self if I had the opportunity. (Now that I think of it, Dan, if you could take a copy of the Easy Strength Omnibus with you when you go back to talk to your younger self and have you mail it to the younger me, it would be much appreciated. Like, life changing, even. I just have to go back and make sure I actually read it and pay attention. Younger me can be such an idiot, sometimes. Not older me, though, nope, not at all.)

When I think back on my life and the times I felt strong vs. the times I got injured, I think there's a correlation with whether I was working on my engines (hinge/pull) or trying to force myself to meet standards I'm not suited for.
