I just do what I teach. I do exactly what I recommend in my book and/or at my gym.

Thank God I went to the grad school and met the people I did. I was raised in the medical model like most people. I had terrible digestive issues, couldn't breath deep, snored awful, used inhalers, took ib profen daily like it was candy cause s**t hurt all the time. Medications were the answer for everything. If I stayed in that paradigm I'd be a disaster.

Thanfully, I learned how to train and eat properly and magically, all my symptoms went away.

It's the lifestyle I teach in my book and in my gyms. I highly encourage you to give it a try. It feels really friggin good.

Join my gym, learn to eat proper food, do some great workouts, look and feel younger 10 years later. Super cool.

The age excuse. I get this one all the time. There are guys over 40 playing in the NFL but your knees are stiff and you can't do a bodyweight squat or pushup because you're 35....

The other strangely common excuse is weather. Poor diet, no strength training, no stretching, drinking alcohol, nah.... that can't be causing any aches and pains. It's definitely the barometric pressure.

The biggest workout mistake I see, by far....

I'm often asked - How often should I workout? And, How long should I workout for?

The answer - it doesn't really matter if you don't give much effort. After decades in various gyms the biggest issue I see, by far, is lack of effort.

Effort, that is the key. It's why I would trade every single piece of workout equipment for a good workout buddy, or better yet, buddies, that push me to give more effort.

Effort is the most important thing, by far. Working out should be hard. And when you get stronger, you grab bigger weights so it stays hard. When you get fitter, you go faster, so it stays hard.

Go hard and you'll get stronger, lose more fat, look better.... all great things. Another often overlooked benefit is that feeling of accomplishment that comes right after really going hard.

I don't think there's a better tasting "birthday cake" than a mixed fruit froggy!

"There is no such thing as republican or democratic children" truth!
The food guidelines are such obviously corrupt garbage. I'm all for anyone cutting out the prepackaged garbage and getting kids more whole foods.
Now, start school later and add a bunch more recess and PE classes :)

I never thought someone like Casey Means would be chosen for surgeon general.
Finally someone that will look to the root cause of sickness as opposed to more drugs and surgery! (I hope) Here is my summary of her book and a lot of the very obvious (but not as profitable) changes that can be made.

Not that long ago amphetamines were handed out like candy as a weight loss drug. However, they were shown to cause too many problems so that was stopped.

But... they are safe to now give to kids like candy.

Do you think that starting school too early, not having nearly enough recesses and/or gym classes, boring/useless subjects, and garbage food just might be part of the problem?

It makes a lot more sense than an amphetamine deficiency.

Anyone that does consistent gymanstics as a child will see/feel benefits of it for the rest of his/her life.
