1. WHY HEALTH?
There is no (true) freedom without health.

Good health reduces risk.

Good health makes you feel like a king! It improves the quality of life.
2. PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
PA RT IT LA FT
PA (Physical Activity - general)
RT (Resistance Training)
IT (Interval Training - short to longish)
LA (Lactic Acid/Acidosis)
FT (Fast Twitch)
+ Aerobic base
IMO, these are the requirements for robust physical health youth -> old age

General Physical Standards
Acidosis for health - keep in touch with it (but it hurts!)
Develop a necessary aerobic base by longer, less intensive work (zone 2-ish) - I rarely *train* this as I regard as normal physical activity. You do you.

Throw in some 'micro, mini, mega challenges' - they're fun & adds in randomness

Recap - Physical Activity
1 Resistance training – weights, circuits and/or calisthenics
2 Intervals - short to long (anaerobic/lactic/aerobic)
3 Daily low-level activity
4 Occasional 'mega' challenges (once/twice a year)
5 Necessary aerobic base (ability to run a fast mile)

3. DIET

ASF = animal sourced food

Generally, LC HP IF – the way forward.
LC - Low(ish) carb. Reduce the CHO content of your diet i.e. bread, pasta, rice, pizza, cakes, sweets. Eat non-starchy vegetables. Cut out sugar
HP - (High(ish) protein. Eat as much meat, fish, eggs, non-starchy vegetables as you like

HP - (High(ish) protein. Eat as much meat, fish, eggs, non-starchy vegetables as you like
IF - Intermittent fasting. Eat two meals a day in a 6-8hr window. Breakfast and lunch or lunch and supper. Don’t eat large meals late (within four hours of going to bed)

Regardless of body weight:
1 Cut out seed oils
2 Cut out refined carbs and sugars
3 Reduce cereals/grains - pasta, bread,etc
4 Eat meat, seafood, eggs, some non-starchy fruit and veg
5 Don't drink calories (apart from animal blood) - just coffee, tea, water, red wine

6 Take megadose Vit C, (maybe Vit A & D3) as soon as an infection strikes
7 Cycle creatine (optional)
8 Calorie restriction – slight
9 Time restricted feeding (18/6)
10 Intermittent Fasting - 24hrs once every 2/3 weeks
11 Intermittent ‘overeating’ - one or twice a week

None of this gospel - it's just a guide. It's what I do.
- Be forensic if you have a food related problem
- Find things out for yourself
- There are other things important in life; relationships, family & creating your world.
