“I am of the opinion that health would be maximally held by maximizing your area under the curve* and holding that work capacity for as long as you can. In other words: Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch, no sugar; do constantly varied high-intensity exercise; learn and play new sports throughout your life. This will buy you more health than will trying to fix your cholesterol or bone density with pharmaceutical intervention. That is a failed approach”. Greg Glassman, pg 38 of the Level 1 Training Guide from the CrossFit Level One Certificate Course (click for free download!)
