18 FIRM SUGGESTIONS
The Plan to Save the West is: You
- Learn new skills. Grow 1% stronger every day.
- Read books. Reading the news is not enough.
- Rebuild your lost community: Start a club or community group – chess, sports, reading, cooking, build a tribe around your non-political interests.
- Earn a high social standing. Be a dependable man of stature.
- Accept challenges. Compete.
- Overcome your emotions. Only rational determination will help you now. Emotional decisions are for girls. A leader must act logically and do what is right, not what feels right. Emotional men cannot be consistent leaders.
- Don’t be fat. If your ideas cause you to be fat then you have bad ideas.
- Don’t be weak. If your ideas cause you to be weak then you have bad ideas.
- Guard your health. It is your precious firm foundation.
- Quit sugar. It gnaws at your integrity with every bite.
- Have an above-average number of children and raise them well. In your veins flows the ancient and victorious blood of heroes; send it forth into the future.
- Do not fill your blood with poison. If you do, you do not deserve your blood. Deserve means to earn through service.
- Hydrate. You cannot reclaim the Western Destiny if you are drying up.
- Become more persuasive; study influence and rhetoric.
- Boost your vocabulary.
- Learn to live alongside the forces of evil and degeneracy and be unchanged by them, and, by so doing, you change them. The effect of your gravity is greater than you imagine. You are the gravitational tether than can transform downward degenerate direction by strong example upward.
- Learn to recognise the many forms which the enemies of the West will take. Learn to identify their habits and behaviours, and the lies they tell. Western men at present do not understand the nature of the forces preying upon them, and this situation will be decided one way or the other. Reveal to many the true nature of reality. Lead and guide your people. Set your people free.
- Bring forth good fruit. It will be obvious to all if your philosophy is any good. You won’t even have to utter a word. Your philosophy will prove itself in your health, fitness, posture, your virtuous behaviour, attire, cleanliness and well-grooming, your sobriety, your self-discipline, mental balance and mastery over your emotions, your conquest over egocentricity, your bravery and honesty, and above all, in your defence of your highest sense of honour and duty. If you are a mess, then your philosophy is a mess and you should only share it with others as a warning.
Strength is morality. Weakness is sin. Weakness requires punishment. If you’re weak, if you’re obese, if you’re a drug addict, become less so. Become stronger. Move towards the sun. Become more coherent, become more articulate. Cast more of a shadow.
Succumbing to noble temptations prevents surrendering to base temptations.

Plastics and many other chemicals too. When we say “The modern world is killing you” we are not joking around.
Stoicism should be our way. Courage should be our way. When somebody pushes you, you push them back. When somebody’s false to you, you’re false to them. When somebody’s friendly to you, you are to them. You fight for your own country, and your own group, and your own culture, and your own civilization, at your own level, and in your own way. And when somebody says, “Apologize for this, or that” you say: “No. I regret nothing.” And it’s a good answer! I have no regrets.

Master Time Management, Stop Wasting Time
But war does not agree with a delicate habit of body, used only to the shade; for even one lean soldier that hath been used to military exercises shall overthrow whole troops of mere wrestlers who know nothing of war.

The secret to getting results that last is to never stop making improvements. It’s remarkable what you can build if you just don’t stop. It’s remarkable the business you can build if you don’t stop working. It’s remarkable the body you can build if you don’t stop training. It’s remarkable the knowledge you can build if you don’t stop learning. It’s remarkable the fortune you can build if you don’t stop saving. It’s remarkable the friendships you can build if you don’t stop caring. Small habits don’t add up, they compound.

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People
STRENGTH – STRETCH – FITNESS
“No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.”
– Socrates
“Body fat contains aromatase, an enzyme that converts testosterone into estrogens, the main sex hormones in women. Having extra estrogens floating around your system triggers your body to slow its production of testosterone. And the less testosterone you make, the more belly fat you accumulate and the more estrogens you spew.”

We are the young ascetics. We will overcome pain and challenge the death itself . All this we do so that our people may live. We will leave behind us the easy life, empty days and vanity. We harden ourselves with pain and strengthen ourselves with want. Our power grows day by day. You, who wasted your chance, you, who were corrupted and whose souls were bought - do not try to teach us, for goats cannot teach lions.
The Kettlebell Swing – The Single Best Exercise Ever?
Men, Women, Alcohol, Testosterone
Getting drunk aka “acute alcohol ingestion” … “decreases blood testosterone levels in normal healthy men”.[1]
When “healthy pre-menopausal women” were given a “low dose of alcohol”, acute increase in blood testosterone levels were measured.[1] The alcohol effect on testosterone is more prominent among women using Oral Contraceptives.[2]
“Chronic male alcoholics” are known to experience “testicular atrophy, gynaecomastia [male boobs], impotence and sterility”. Alcohol has a “direct toxic effect on the testes” and thus impairs testosterone production, and alcohol “enhances testosterone catabolism [breakdown]”. In addition to the negative impact on testosterone levels, “chronic alcoholic men are also exposed to the excessive oestrogen effect that results from the accumulation of oestrogenic hormones”.[3]

WHY VITAMIN C
Vitamin C helps burn higher levels of body fat at lower levels of exercise
Individuals with low Vitamin C levels burned “25% less fat per kg body weight … as compared to individuals with adequate vitamin C status.”
Vitamin C is a cofactor in the biosynthesis of carnitine, a molecule required to shuttle fat to the mitochondria to be burned for energy.
“A reduction in the ability to oxidize fat may contribute to the reported inverse relationship between vitamin C status and adiposity.”
Source: Nutrition & Metabolism 2006 3:35, ‘Marginal vitamin C status is associated with reduced fat oxidation during submaximal exercise in young adults’, 2006,
https://nutritionandmetabolism.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1743-7075-3-35
Vitamin C Decreases Death
A 10+ year study of 11,348 U.S. adults found that men taking just 500mg of vitamin C per day had:
– a 35% lower risk of death from ALL CAUSES,
– a 42% lower risk of death from heart disease,
– and 22% lower risk of death from cancer.
The numbers for women were 10%, 25%, and 14% respectively.
The researchers adjusted for age, sex, and 10 potentially confounding variables (including smoking, education, race, and disease history).

So the one who thinks he is standing firm should be careful not to fall. No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
