I just read this simplification about getting & staying fit:
- Raise your heart rate (a little or a lot)
- Challenge your muscles (a little or a lot)
- Tease your balance and mobility (as much as you feel safe doing)
- Repeat steps one through three consistently.
Makes sense to me...! Do you agree?

An even more simplification seems to be consistently testing your limits slightly more each time. Increase treadmill speed by .1 MPH each run, increase your bench/squat by 2.5 lbs each session, etc. once your body gets comfortable, expand that comfort zone. I like it!

I quit drinking at the first of the year because I was drinking too much as a way to cope with Covid. 99.9% of the time, I’m glad I quit drinking. And then there are those nights when I just want a glass of something to take the edge off, which makes me think alcohol was more of a coping mechanism than I thought and it’s probably a good thing I’m not drinking. I don’t even like wine very much, but I miss that low level buzz that makes everything a little less loud.

Has anyone figured out how to not feel absolutely horrendous when you wake up? I dread mornings because waking it so hard for me.

I prioritize getting 7-8 hours of sleep (this is the best I can do at the moment with work and a small baby) and I’ve stopped drinking because even 1 beer seems to make the morning 10x worse. Anything else I can try?

Has anyone here successfully exited to pharma after 1-2 YOE? Currently an SA at a small NYC market access firm with a wide range of projects under my belt for big pharma clients.

Currently make $100k with a 10% bonus, would I even get a higher salary in industry at this stage? Also might be worth noting I have an MPH. Thanks!

Hi all. My 6mo rvw is approaching in <2mo. I am aware I will receive a performance-based raise, but not sure how much.
