Why I’m a Caveman

Animals don’t have depression. They don’t have girl problems, legal problems, job worries, or bank accounts.

I know I’m on to something when people say, ‘Jon, you eat like a goddamn caveman.’

And they’re right. I do eat like that. Because modern life is broken. There’s nothing left worth dying for anymore. No great wars, no battles, no real conquests.

We need to return to monkey. Seriously.

Modern life is hell. It’s a mouse utopia. A hundred years ago boredom and being fat and lazy was a luxury only the rich could afford. Now? Everybody’s bored, fat, and lazy.

People scroll on their phones all day, trapped in distraction and comfort. We trade real struggle for safety and end up weaker inside and out.

That’s why I live the way I do. Not to impress anyone or because it’s trendy. I want to be free from the cage modern life builds around us.

I don’t always train fasted. I don’t always eat one meal a day. I’m just a guy who knows this world isn’t made for us.

We weren’t built to sit all day, overfed, overstimulated, and spiritually empty.

We were made to move, to hunt, to sweat, to fight, to push ourselves. That’s how you escape the mouse utopia.

If you want to survive this modern hell, you’ve got to reject the easy life. Get back to basics. Become a caveman again—not for show, but for your sanity and strength.

So yeah, call me a caveman. I’ll take that over a domesticated man quietly dying in comfort any day.
