Diet: Ugh

"What does a warrior eat?". That may sound a bit silly in this time and age, but the question still applies. Nowadays when people think "warrior" they probably think of athletic icons, people they see on television, the gym rat who is always at the gym, and a whole slew of other images of "warrior" that bombard us each and every day. While it may be true that those people are at the peak of athletic excellence, they are often the most un-healthy people out there. Between all the chemicals they put into their bodies, and the nutritionally shallow foods most of them eat, they are really not the ones we should look to for a model of how a warrior eats.

A warrior only eats things that are natural, whole, and nutrient dense. Lots of fruits and vegetables, plenty of plant based fats and protein, moderate amounts of lean animal protein, and water. In short, a warrior only eats things that will help him to be more healthy, and not things that will passively kill him.

Ugh

I feel drowsy today...

its either because I only got 5 hours of sleep,
I'm sick,
I've been taking massive doses of vitamins,
or all three.

anyways I decided to share something about the bench press that I do in the mornings.

when the bar is going towards my chest I flex my arms like I'm trying to bend the bar, this makes the bench press much more efficient. A lot of people don't like it because they think it's overrated, it is, but there are ways that you can get more value out of it.

that's all class.
