Lookin' good, Dropbear. You look like you could easily whip a dropbear if dropbears dropped...or really existed!
you're doing pretty fucking good jan. certainly better than any of us young fucks. hell i can barely open a jar these days.Just set a new personal best in my Indian Mace and Sledgehammer workout. I start out with about 12 minutes of Indian club swinging and then do sequences of 50 "360s" with an Indian mace followed by 100 tire slams with the sledgehammer. Today I completed 500 tire slams and 300 360s with the mace. Admittedly, I was just using my 12-pound sledge and 10-pound mace. Should I ever be able to duplicate this with my 16-pound hammer and 15-pound mace it will be proud day for me! I do think I am going to segue to the 15-pound mace shortly. Anyway, I'll keep pitting the elemental forces of strength and sinew against the inexorable processes of old age, decrepitude and death.
I usually steer people who are on keto, are vegan, or other generally idiotic "diets" to the book The Endurance Diet by Matt Fitzgerald. It gives some of the best legitimate information available about human historic dietary trends and the actual science with added empirical evidence.Anyway, I’m doing this Keto thing full-on now.
The key is to find the diet which works for you. Some people do better on high fat and protein where-as others do better on high carb low fat, while others do better on more meat where-as others do better on vegan. Some people get very heavy on high carb and high fruit diets such as myself. For me I do better on higher fat high protein plant foods.I usually steer people who are on keto, are vegan, or other generally idiotic "diets" to the book The Endurance Diet by Matt Fitzgerald.

It isn't a diet, as in a plan ala South Beach, Paleo, keto or whatever, but diet in the sense of what people subsist on. It was borne of a wide ranging project to log the diets of a huge sample of the worlds most elite endurance athletes.
You will get much leaner on a carb heavy diet than anything else. Anyone who tells you otherwise is a moron.
Unless you have a legitimate medical condition, this is just from a lack of adequate exercise and poor carbohydrate choice.Some people get very heavy on high carb and high fruit diets such as myself
This too is highly questionable. What about all those apparently healthy people on the 100% raw vegan 80/10/10 diet eating mainly fruit (most calories from fruit) who exercise like crazy getting fat on the diet?Unless you have a legitimate medical condition, this is just from a lack of adequate exercise and poor carbohydrate choice.
The entire point I'm making is black and white diets are bad.I've said my bit Doghouse. I am sure you may disagree, but that's o.k. I don't feel the need to change your mind. I just thought l would give my opinion and insights. It's amazing how we may think we are right, but we may not always be....this happens to everyone, and l have done it many times. So these days l try to stop stating things in black and white like they are law, because experience proves that is often a slippery slope.
Yes, it is dangerous to follow such narrow minded advice. People are not black and white text book cases, people are humans, so they need to find a diet that works for them and not blindly follow dietary theories.The entire point I'm making is black and white diets are bad.
I remember it well my friendI used to buy into heavy vegan dogma for decades,
I used to look down on anyone who cooked their food and wasn't vegan. Cooking is seen as the ultimate sin in the raw vegan world.I remember it well my friend
Indeed! Exactly what I'm saying. Emphasis on the healthy part.It's easy to get too extreme, but it's a trap, and it's not healthy.
Pretty much this. I have been on a Keto before it became mainstream well over a decade ago. I left it because I miss fruits et al so much. Generally. I am usually on some form of low-carb and Intermittent fasting ( again, we are talking decades here). My health markers are consistently excellent and I have maintained the same weight in over a decade give or take five pounds.The key is to find the diet which works for you.

It's not, but do whatever makes you feel good.Statements like ''You will get much leaner on a carb heavy diet than anything else. Anyone who tells you otherwise is a moron.'' are as inaccurate as they are helpful
