Fitness New and Old
|
Fitness New and Old Hi Everyone! I decided to write this blog, based on the history I have in training, and the knowledge I have in the history of fitness. New statistics show that the U.S. has over 26% of its people obese! Over 2/3 of Americans are overweight. Diabetes, Heart Disease, Mental Disorders, all on the rise. Now, to be honest, these stats are a bit off, because a bodybuilder, that weighs 225, with 4% body fat isn't obese. He/she is solid and lean. The actuary charts that insurance companies use base there stats on height to weight, as opposed to, BMI (body mass index). In other words, how much body fat you are carrying. Also, genetically, some people can "carry" more body weight, and be physically "fit". We are not all the same. Even identical twins can have different tolerances. So. There are thousands of companies all over the world, that combined make Billions of dollars every year, selling the next best thing that will help you lose weight, build muscle, or feel better. Whether it's a pill, powder, drink, or apparatus. This is 99% bunk! We have a basic society that can get news instantly on the internet, or cable. They can get food instantly, with "Fast Food" restaurants, or micro-wave ovens. They can "feel good" with recreational drugs, instantly. They can get rich, instantly, simply by winning the lottery. Everything you desire is or can be instant. BUT NOT YOUR HEALTH. This is all unrealistic. It's totally NOT HEALTHY! Physically or mentally. Basic health is very simple. Unless you have underlying health issues. Eat what nature made, and you cannot go wrong. This is how humans survived this long, on Earth. I don't eat "processed foods" at all. I eat "organic" 90% of the time. The only times I don't is when I'm traveling. I travel for a living, so in airports, it is very hard to eat correctly. So I eat a lot of salads, even though they're not organic. But it's better than the "non-foods" that all of he fast food places serve. Processed foods were "invented" by humans, so that it would last longer on the shelves, and go further. The reason it lasts longer, is because, even bacteria, nor bugs will eat it, because there's no nutrition in it. "Real" food, can be found on the "edge" of most grocery stores. Produce, meat, and some dairy. The reason it is located there is because it MUST remain refrigerated in order to "not spoil". Most of it is put away at night, in a better controlled cooler, to prevent spoilage. REAL FOODS SPOIL QUICKLY! We humans have become "addicted" to "non-foods". The result is obesity, health issues, and mental issues. i.e. depression, anxiety, lethargy, etc. The reason for the "addiction", isn't really "chemical", it's "taste", and "lack of nutrition". Your body NEEDS nutrition to survive and be healthy. If you eat crap, because you're hungry, you will be hungry more often, so you will eat more crap. This may satisfy your hunger, but your body is still craving NUTRIENTS. Obese people are "malnourished!" Just like overly skinny people. This isn't "Rocket Science". It's "NATURE!" We are "natural beings". Everything we need to eat healthy, comes form this planet, in the state the we need to eat it. Basically the only preparation we need is to clean it, cut it and eat it. except for meats, they should be cooked. Fish can be eaten raw, as can lean beef. But fowl and pork, need to be cooked. I have had countless that want to lose weight, or be healthier, but don't want to stop eating the crap that they are addicted to. The HONEST TRUTH IS THIS. If you eat that crap, you are jeopardizing your health. That's it! Simple. One apple will give you more nutrition, than 100 Sugar Cookies. And it will satisfy your hunger, where as the processed sugars in the cookies will only make you crave more. Because your body is craving NUTRIENTS. This is almost Darwinian. The weak and the stupid die off. Sorry to sound so crass, but good grief! If you water your flowers with Cola drinks they will die. They need water. So why am I writing this? Because, everyone is looking for the short-cut. The short-cut is simple. EAT WHAT NATURE MADE. If you decide not to, as most of you will, then the health problems that you end up with are entirely your fault. Now I'm sure this blog will piss-off most of you. That's because it's the truth. It's the "food companies" that have been lying to you. The "OLD" way to eat, was "eat what nature put here". The "NEW" way to eat is, "Whatever is easiest, quickest, and tastes best. The "OLD WAY" always wins. As far as being healthier. Plus, no matter how I figure it. It's cheaper to eat right. One apple costs less than a candy bar.

Sodas are horrible for you. Probably one of the worst things you put into your body for many reasons.
