He’d really be better off with a strength routine and intermittent fasting.

He may want to consider Shoveglove, one of my favorite hacks!

from the essay:

> That’s why I’ve never recommended running to others. If someone has an interest in long-distance running, he’ll start running on his own. If he’s not interested in it, no amount of persuasion will make any difference.
