The Optimized Muslim Podcast - Self Development For The Muslim

Show Notes

Treat going to the gym like going to the library too.

In this video I discuss how I combine my time at the gym with various more passive activities mainly using different forms of audio input such as Arabic vocabulary, Podcasts, audiobooks, the Noble Qur'an and various adhkar (litanies/invocations/remembrances) to make my time there more productive.

Going to the gym, with the right intention, can be a means of reward by its own. However, given that you will likely be able to complete your workout whilst also listening to some form of audio, it is definitely an avenue through which you can learn a lot. If you have a busy lifestyle,, this can afford you an extra 60-90 minutes that you would otherwise not make use of. Compounded over many weeks and months, you can calculate how much of a difference this could make to your mental input which makes up your mental diet and translates into what you produce.

( 🤲 Prayers/duas requested if you found this to be of use.💚)
