		<description>Hi Rusty,
Thank you so much for this blog. I was running miles and miles, not eating much but still overweight, and this was frustrating me. Then I checked this website, and I figured that I had insulin resistivity, I cut all the high GI foods from my diet, did the 3 low carb/high fat -1 high carb/low fat routine, and HIIT and within 2 months I lost 20 pounds! Although my ultimate goal is to be very skinny like hollywood starlets (blame media not me!) I look hot now, and I enjoy life by staying in the 5 pound range. I told my sister what I learned from you and she lost 10 pounds as well (she has been trying to lose weight for years). Thanks again!</description>

		<description>Rusty,

First time posting on your site and let me say I&#039;m a big fan.  I have been on the corporate side of the supplement industry for over a dozen years and I can&#039;t tell you how many times a senior exec has sat in a meeting demanding a magic bullet product so he/she can sell more products.  Anyway, I digress.

What I want to add to your 40 years of wisdom (I&#039;m working on 46 years, myself) is that stronger does not mean one is fitter.  Being able to curl 125 or bench 300 when one can&#039;t see his feet becuase his belly is in the way does not mean one is fit.  I&#039;m a skinny cyclist that loves to weight train and if I had a dollar for every fat boy that came up to me to tell me how to &quot;get in shape&quot;......

Keep up the fight, brother.

		<description>Great article, I agree if you look like you try too hard to work out it&#039;s just silly. I want to say get a life to these people. But to each their own. Dig the bond reference, I totally agree.</description>

		<description>I agree with one of the posts that suggests you should weigh yourself everyday. I remember reading about it somewhere (may have been Men&#039;s Health) and it stated that people that weigh themselves on a daily basis are more aware of their weight and tend to &#039;manage&#039; their weight better than those who don&#039;t. There are obviously exceptions to the rule. On the whole though, great post Rusty, you never fail to impress with your experiences - thanks for sharing them!</description>

		<description>Hey Rusty, 

I loved your &#039;things I&#039;ve learned in 39 Years Post&#039;. What a no-nonsense, no-BS post. I totally agree: fitness obsessives are BORING. Protein consumptive are BORING and people who can&#039;t find much else to get worked up about than working out, are BORING! Your site is never boring! Out of the numerous fitness sites I&#039;ve come across, yours is the most spot-on, fun-filled and informative. Way to go!</description>

		<description>Rusty, I love your site more and more!  I mostly hang out at Mark&#039;s Daily Apple and my primary concern for another few months is weight loss.  One of my rants as the subject comes up is the artificial look so many people are striving for.  Boob jobs and steroids are just the symptoms of deep psychological issues.  

The Bond movie look you refer to is just how we looked when I was a kid.  Well, not me, I was skinny as a thread.  But good looking men and women were not obsessed as so many people are today.  When I was young, a &quot;six pack&quot; meant you needed a &quot;church key!&quot;

Give me a healthy natural look any day.  Normal fat on a woman, not women trying to look like men. 

And that you dig B&amp;W.......wow.</description>

		<description>Great post! This blog is in my RSS feed but haven&#039;t looked at it much. Then I read the post about &quot;The Rock&quot; slimming down and was amening it all the way. This one is great as well. Thanks.

		<description>Love this post Rusty. Love the blog. Here&#039;s my view :

Life is a marathon. Eat some fruit and veg every day, drinks lots of water and get lots of sleep. Everything else will work out fine. If you stumble or pig out, enjoy it. Then wake up the next day and get back on track. Over the years all those instances you chose to eat healthy or didn&#039;t super-size your meal add up.
cheers

		<description>Rusty, 
Thanks for the humility.  Useful, practical advice but the note that we shouldn&#039;t believe anyone has all the answers to health and fitness hit home.  I think most of them are egotists, greedy or mental cases.
Your sensible advice is the best.

		<description>This is not so much a fitness tip as a well-being tip.

Every morning I get up from bed I try to do an easy amount of pushups, like 20 or so. Then I do a couple of scissor crunches on the bed and finish with like 20-30 mountain climbers.

I feel _spectacular_ throughout the day. That tiny amount of body exertion in the morning just kickstarts my metabolism and in general how good I feel.

Try it out for a week.</description>

		<description>Katelyn, 

This statements was taken directly from the Framingham Study website and represents their current conclusion:

Over the years, careful monitoring of the Framingham Study population has led to the identification of the major CVD risk factors -- high blood pressure, HIGH BLOOD CHOLESTEROL, smoking, obesity, diabetes, and physical inactivity -- as well as a great deal of valuable information on the effects of related factors such as blood triglyceride and HDL cholesterol levels, age, gender, and psychosocial issues.

I believe high cholesterol is linked to high saturated fat consumption(butter and steaks are examples of high saturated fat foods). Fiber is believed to lower cholesterol. Saturated fat is needed by the body but moderation is important. I did not find the part in the study about the people who ate more fat had less cardiovascular disease.</description>

		<description>Jason:

You are assuming that you can obtain and absorb the so-called vitamins and minerals in carbs (vegetables and fruits). It is well known that consuming carbohydrates CAUSES the need for increased Vitamin C.  If one did not consume carbs, one would not need to eat the carbs to correct the deficiencies caused by them.

		<description>Katelyn,

Helder said everything that needed to be said. If you eat like a caveman you will think like a caveman. Fiber helps you eat carbs without the big sugar spikes. Carbs fuel your brain. Not to mention that many hormones(for mood example) require the balancing of carbs and proteins,etc. If we were meant not to eat carbs than our body would not have a complex system for dealing with carbs. People can live on meat and they will be very lean, but they will have nutritional deficiencies just like vegetarians that do not eat smartly will also have nutritional deficiencies. Balancing the macro nutrients is the key to good health.</description>
