Well, I went and did it... I discovered the fountain of Youth!
It's been hiding where the "Health Experts" don't want you to go
Watch till the end to see the new me
Who's that skinny imposter well done Rick , props to you mate seriously well done you look great.
BUT it's going to be expensive you'll need a whole new range of boards now
Hi mate, you give a young spud like me at 57 hope for many more years in the water
If you are not already doing it, I would add lifting weights to your workout routine, as muscle loss is what gets a lot of people in the end. And with all the protein that you are eating you should be able to add muscle easily.
I look back at photos of me from 7 years ago and man my shoulders and arms were going fast. I was cycling a lot and its great for cardio and weight loss, but not great for our bone density or upper body muscle. I really enjoyed it but knew I had to get back to lifting weights. I get plenty of stick form work mates for spending my lunch break in the gym, I try to explain its not about "looking good" but rather how I am going to live the last 15 to 20 years of my life.
And being strong and active is top of that idea, and if I practice enough I might surf as well as you
Cheers and keep spreading the stoke.
Steve.
Congrats Rick. Here's to many many more days on the SUP!!
It's not just the weight loss on Carnivore that's awesome... recovery, digestion, skin, anxiety etc. all improve markedly.
I know what you mean, I suffered for years when my gut decided it couldn't or wouldn't put up with some foods anymore, after sending my blood off to Germany to get tested and adjusting from the results
I'm much better. A lot of nutritionists point the finger at genetically modified crops.
Yep give me meat and plain veg and I'm ok
Truly AWESOME
"Either great whites or alligators"!
Agree with go to the beach by your self, always great to see mates on the water but do it for yourself.
Look out ladies in the US for this sizzling Supstar
Love that you share the stoke, whether supping or lifestyle and it is inspiring
Hi Creek,
Damn amazing!!Can you share with us what your diet is? In my case the devil is lack of energy - 63 and one hour in the surf I'm stuffed for the day - love to hear how you keep that active lifestyle up. Reading between the lines it sounds like cutting out the carbs was the answer to both weight loss as well as extra energy?
Just a word on Cholesterol, since you brought it up:
Cholesterol is an interesting topic(*), as it exemplifies the differences between US and European medecine (I don't know for OZ)
Europe has often a more nuanced approach, and more receptive to recent scientific advances.
www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1567568821000015
Also France is home to the "Mediteranean diet", famously pro fat (duck confit, red wine,...) but with less red meat.
This may explain why "sugar is bad" is kind of old news here. And my nuanced position.
(*) The current unknown that studies try to evaluate is whether - for people with no previous heart attack - Cholesterol is causing cardiovascular diseases, or it is just an indicator of an underlying problem causing them. Thus lowering Cholesterol may be reducing risks, or on the contrary a decoy that "shoots the messenger" but not reducing the actual risk. Research is ongoing, but already in France your general practitioner is not using Cholesterol as the only indicator.
