“Back in the 1970s, I ate a high-protein diet to get bigger and stronger. As a senior at Utah State, I weighed 218 pounds with eight percent body fat, and threw the discus over 190 feet. Then I got some advice from the people at the Olympic Training Center. I needed carbs, they advised, and lots of them. They pointed to studies done on the American distance runners. Being an idiot, I took the advice to eat like emaciated, over-trained sub-performers. It took years of high carbohydrate grazing to learn the evils of this advice.” PeopleYearsStatesDoneBodyEvilStudyFeetAdviceNeededTrainingPercentBiggerStrongerDistanceEightFatsIdiotDietsPoundsPerformersSeniorRunnersWorkoutProteinUtahDistance RunnerMotivational WorkoutCarbsCarbohydratesGrazingBody Fat Author:Dan John

“There is no blacklist. In the first place, in the entertainment business, money talks, bullshit walks. So Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins won't be blacklisted because they are bankable stars. In the second place, if you are a woman, the only things you're going to be blacklisted for in Hollywood are body fat and aging.” IfsFirstsBodyStarsWalksHollywoodAgingEntertainmentFatsBullshitSecond PlaceMoney TalksEntertainment BusinessBody Fat Author:Janeane Garofalo
