⚔️ STOIC CODE COMBAT | OCTOBER 365
RELATIONSHIP — CONTROL UNDER PRESSURE 🐙

11.42 TONNES. 304 REPS. 30% STILL IN THE BANK.

82 minutes of strength and conditioning.
🏋️ 180 kg peak deadlift
❤️ 123 bpm average HR
🔥 876 kcal | RPE 3/10

Today wasn’t about reaching my limit. It was about understanding my capacity.

A little glimpse into SCC 365, where human performance meets Stoic philosophy and mātauranga Māori.

October explores RELATIONSHIP, drawing on Rongomātāne and the Stoic teachings of Hierocles.

Different traditions. Distinct wisdom. Shared opportunities for reflection.

Strength isn’t always about doing more. Sometimes it’s knowing when enough is enough.

SUNDAY PRACTICE. 🧠⚔️

Stoicism isn’t about denying yourself everything.

It’s about choosing deliberately.

Plan the training.
Plan the responsibilities.
Plan the enjoyment. 🥤🏋️‍♂️👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Sometimes the treat comes after the work.
Sometimes you plan it in before.

The key is this:

Choose it. Make it fit. Own it. ✅

Discipline is not punishment.
It is self-governance.

Not everyone needs a big speech.
Sometimes they just need a place to start.

Stoic Code Combat offers 1:1 space for movement, mentoring, conversation, and practical tools that help people handle pressure better. 🥊

For some, that starts with boxing.
For others, it starts with a kōrero.

Either way, the goal is the same:
build confidence, build capability, and build self-governance.

Papa’s turn. 🫀🫡

TODAY’S WORK

🏋️ Deadlift — volume work with successful lifts to 180kg
🚶‍♂️ 376 × 20kg walking plate press
🏋️ 3 × 6 × 60kg continuous deadlift-to-overhead
🥊 16 minutes boxing — flow, accuracy, extension, speed and late-round pocket work
🔄 Halos, round-the-worlds + walking triceps extensions
💪 3 × 22 back extensions

15.6 TONNES OF LOADED MOVEMENT.

All after roughly 4 hours sleep last night and 5 the night before — not something to glorify, just part of the conditions I walked in with today.

So the goal wasn’t simply more output.

Some boxing rounds were precision.
Some were flow.
Some were basically: “You’re stuck in the pocket, you’re fu**ed, now make good decisions.” 😂🥊

Two scoops of pre-workout eventually announced themselves, 200kg told me no twice, and somewhere in the middle Sgt. MacKenzie came through the headphones and the Scottish whakapapa got called in. 🫀🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿😂

Then the weights went down and it was straight into the pool with Evander.

Because capability is useful.

But being available for your kids afterwards matters more.

Control the output.
Move under fatigue.
Breathe and reset.
Explore movement.
Adapt.

Same lessons Evander was working on.

Different body. Different workload. Different pressure.

Same principles.

PREPARATION → PRESSURE → SELF-GOVERNANCE

Evander has given permission to share his workout on the Stoic Code Combat page. 🫀💪

Today’s work:

🏊‍♂️ 3 lengths back kick
🏊‍♂️ 3 lengths backstroke
🏃‍♂️ 3 lengths running forward
🏃‍♂️ 3 lengths running backwards
🏁 Races against Papa
🌊 3 underwater rides on Papa’s back — counting each time he surfaced
🤿 Diving practice — 4 standing + 4 sitting

Between sets we worked on planning, preparation and breathing, with a compulsory “show me a trick” before each breathing reset. 😂

We also talked about participating vs dominating. Wanting to win is fine — but winning starts long before the race. Preparation matters.

That’s Stoic Code Combat.

Not just fighting. Learning to recognise pressure, control yourself within it, recover, adapt and go again.

And apparently self-governance does not yet extend to looking after goggles. 😂

Four pairs lost. FOUR. 🤦‍♂️🥽

So today he wore his sister’s pink pair.

They’re basically Ocean Beach colours, so we’re calling it intentional. 👌😂

What if “I don’t know” wasn’t something to hide…
but the beginning of becoming better? 🧠🔥

Stoic Code Combat isn’t about having all the answers.

It’s about having the courage to ask better questions. 🧭

🥊 Train the body.
🧠 Develop the mind.
❓ Stay curious.
📚 Learn what you don’t know.
⚒️ Test it under pressure.
🔄 Observe. Adapt. Grow.
🤝 Then help someone else do the same.

Because physical capability and intellectual development were never meant to compete.

Strong body. Clear mind. Curious spirit.

We don’t fear not knowing.
We go looking. 🔍

Pressure becomes learning.
Learning becomes capability.
Capability becomes self-governance.

And then?

We ask the next question. ♾️

You can be genuinely happy for someone—and still acknowledge what their moment exposed within you. 🫀

That isn’t jealousy.

Pause and ask yourself:

🔍 What rose within me?
🧠 What history or unmet need sits beneath it?
⚖️ What are the facts—and what am I assuming?
🧭 What response remains within my control?
🛡️ What expectation or boundary needs to change?

☸️ Muditā: celebrate their good without comparison.
✝️ Psalm 12: remain honest without becoming bitter.
🏛️ Stoicism: govern the response that remains within your control.

A clean heart does not deny the truth.
It refuses to be corrupted by it.
