It seems in today’s world, the bias is that our worthiness is measured by how much we do. Typically, we all want to do more. Doing more is considered better.

But what if the opposite were truth? That in fact, doing less were better?

For example, I’ve observed at least with weight lifting, the fewer repetitions you do, the better. The trick is lifting a heavier weight for fewer repetitions is superior than lifting a medium weight many times. For example, better to squat 385 pounds once, once a week, then to do 100 bodyweight squats every single day.

Therefore I say, it seems the most optimal strategy is to do less, but with more intensity and strength.
