“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

“A political life, I've often said, is a continuing education in human nature, including one's own. My involvement on the ground floor of two presidential campaigns and my duties as First Lady took me to every state in our union and to seventy-eight nations. In each place, I met someone or saw something that caused me to open my mind and my heart and deepen my understanding of the universal concerns that most of humanity shares.” MindFirstsHumansHeartSaidTwoStatesPoliticalHumanityNationsUnderstandingSawsShareHuman NatureDutyMy HeartMetsConcernUniversalUnionsIncludingEightCampaignsPresidentialContinuingSeventiesInvolvementFirst LadyPolitical LifePresidential Campaign Author:Hillary Clinton
