The power law stuff is what sold me on EF originally.<br /><br />This falls into what I am currently doing with Body By Science style HIT once per week. Like Zach I have limited myself to lifting once a week super intense, a sprint session(or sometimes 0 or 2) and walking or play in between. <br /><br />In a sense the complex in appearance is actually very simple. It would be too hard to code the exact sequences in DNA. It is easy to code the algorithm or recipe. This happens a lot from my understanding in biology as it gives the best results with least amount of what needs to be replicated.<br /><br />Great post as usual.

I impinged my shoulder awhile back, and it happened right when in hindsight I should have rested, I was getting all sorts of signals about it.<br /><br />As regards Marines, Rangers, etc., the type of regimented training that they do (speaking from experience) gets you in awesome shape. If you've ever seen a 45-year-old tip top Marine, they look great, they also are torn up in the knees, and if they retire at 45 looking like they're 35, 5 years after retirement many look like they've aged 20 years. When injuries and a more sedentary lifestyle take their toll, a former military athlete doesn't know a routine that can get him/her out of a rut and back to their former selves.<br /><br />I hear what you're saying Sifter, really do. But I think the point of this post was that the regimented military training is the complex conditioning. It's simple on the one hand, but over the years it can be quite damaging for many. <br /><br />I have gone from 3 a week 2 hour gym sessions, to 1 a week 25 minute session with a weekly sprint session. I add unscheduled play with kids, and sometimes break out the 25 minute sessions into 2 15 minute sessions per week. It's far simpler, and on an EF diet, I've gotten better results than when I was a 16-year old brute.Zachhttp://www.thepaleogarden.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2467994117916260529.post-83252858477534140962009-07-29T15:31:21.370-07:002009-07-29T15:31:21.370-07:00Gee, I did not realize that strengthening and cond...Gee, I did not realize that strengthening and conditioning need be so complex. Power laws, Fibonacci numbers, Elliot Wave theory.. goodness gracious, all this time I thought you need to move and lift heavy stuff. And lift heavy stuff while moving. And move some more. <br />Best conditioned guys I've ever seen were Rangers, a Dutch Marine and some Golani fellows. I'm certain they did things far simpler.SafeNSharphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08067649235775589917noreply@blogger.com
