“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
“This is a message to all those out there who think that you need animal products to be fit and strong. Almost two years after becoming vegan I am stronger than ever before and I am still improving day by day. Don't listen to those self proclaimed nutrition gurus and the supplement industry trying to tell you that you need meat, eggs and dairy to get enough protein. There are plenty of plant-based protein sources and your body is going to thank you for stopping feeding it with dead-food. Go vegan and feel the power!” ThinkingNeedsFeelsTryingYearsStillsTwoSelfEnoughBodyStrongAnimalProductsSourceIndustryBecomingFitMessagesStrongerPlantYour BodyPlentyMeatTwo YearsEggsVeganNutritionImprovingStoppingFeedingGuruProteinSupplementsDairyI Am StrongStronger Than Ever Author:Patrik Baboumian
“We can now determine, easily and relatively cheaply, the detailed chemical architecture of genes ; and we can trace the products of these genes ( enzymes and proteins ) as they influence the course of embryology . In so doing we have made the astounding discovery that all complex animal phyla - arthropods and vertebrates in particular - have retained, despite their half-billion years of evolutionary independence, an extensive set of common genetic blueprints for building bodies.” YearsMadeBodyCoursesAnimalCommonHalfInfluenceBuildingParticularProductsDiscoveryIndependenceComplexesDetermineArchitectureBillionsDespiteChemicalsGenesProteinBlueprintsEnzymesVertebratesArthropods Book:Leonardo's Mountain Of Clams Source: Leonardo's Mountain Of Clams
“Nancy According to astronomers, every atom in my body was forged in a star. I am made, they insist, of stardust. I am stardust braided into strands and streamers of information, proteins and DNA, double helixes of stardust. In every cell of my body there is a thread of stardust as long as my arm.” LongMadeBodyStarsInformationArmsCellsAtomsThreadDnaProteinStrandsStardustAstronomersForgedNancy Author:Chet Raymo
