extreme exercise: what for?

« Reply #50 on: November 11, 2008, 02:21:33 AM »

overly intense, extreme, excessively lengthy, or non-paleo (bodybuilding etc.) exercise/sports are supposed to be a help for life; not a reason for life

the biotic pyramid > the ecological food web > the human trophic niche
it's natural, easy ... & it is fair

I'm working away at the moment but I've been using the kids play equipment for doing pull ups, Dips and raised push ups. I'm in the tropics and there's a beach over the road so I've been doing swim/runs as well as I'm doing a triathlon in March. I've had a lot of people tell me I look fit Wink

Found a butcher 100 metres from the apartments selling ground beef for US$3kg it's a bit lean but does the trick. I've been eating bleu steaks as we have BBQ's and go out a fair bit.

How goes the training? In another thread you mentioned that you would try carb loading before your next race... is the zero-carb thing not working out? I know earlier in your journal you mentioned cutting out carbs helped you put on muscle, do you think it is now holding you back?

hey, training goes good. Resting heart rate measured 51 bpm the other day down from 66 bpm when i first started training. When i first started zero carb i got more cut. I went back to carbs because of the amount of traveling i do, its almost impossible to be zero carb on the road. I havent raced with carbs yet and still prefer zero carb. I think zero carb can hold serious athletes back but im not serious.

Thanks for the response, that heart rate is impressive. I've generally had a quite high resting heart rate, even when I was in relatively good shape, and am hoping an improvement in that area will be another positive side effect of this diet. That, and getting off my ass and out the door on a regular basis once more Tongue
