How can one achieve maximal brain power through fitness, be it exercises or cardio. I'm sure weightlifting is not needed because of the stress it causes, so feel free to post anything that you think might be helpful even if its small. Also a discussion on IF about this topic would be great

Walking meditation or thinking.
Allowing the mind to wander freely or listening to certain musics or audio books while jogging.
Opening your mind and learning how to physically be aware of your body, space, and movement while doing calisthenics.
Feeling strength and power while lifting heavily and the kind of mental focus and concentration that takes.

Holy fucking shit no. This is the exact opposite of how you meditate. You're like one of those people who says to go to the gym and just "do whatever."

It's called mindfullness.
And mindfullness combined with walking is goat as fuck.

It's called a waste of fucking time that no actual ascetic school would ever fucking use. What you are doing is RELAXING. Relaxing is not meditation. Take your new age faggot hippie shit back to the jewess who sold it to you.
cardio is essential to max your brain out

If you knew anything about actual meditation you'd know that monks and shit always clear their minds and then allow thoughts to enter and leave freely and without resistance.
Dumbass.

That's one type of meditation, in which you aim to impartially observe your thoughts. In other schools, you try to focus on one thing and gently steer away any other thoughts

Haven't read it but I've read several books on meditation, my favorite being The Mind Illuminated. I've heard good things about your book tho.
