Yeah 3 minutes sprinting cardio - 6 lengths... so not 3 straight minutes of sprinting. That would be impossible. Also 3 sets of pushups not included in the sprint time. I use to workout 1 hour a day 5 days a week and never got anywhere. Gradually, I came to this type of minimalist workout because I didn't want a gym membership.
Because they are a pushing exercise, pushups work your chest, triceps and anterior delts. Yes, they also work other muscles, but not as well as those three muscle groups. What about your back, biceps and posterior delts? That would require at least one pulling movement. Further, an additional pushing and pulling movement along a different plane also wouldn't hurt. I get the idea of wanting to move away from a high volume, high frequency approach. I did that myself. But you also don't want to find yourself too far on the opposite end of the spectrum. Just my opinion. I also have a minimalist routine, but I do more and I do it twice weekly. I guess we all have to find the sweet spot that we find to "work" and that keeps us coming back.
I know what you mean. I want to include pull-ups but haven’t gotten around to installing the bar. I think that would be good for back and bis.
If you're looking for a doorway bar, you won't go wrong with either of these two, both from the same company:
I understand that, but the feeling of "satiated" is not where I was taking this. In a nutshell, I would like to know the absolute bare minimum quantity of foods that provide the essential nutrients that 99% of people in our culture never get... the rest of the diet, be it one for fat people or skinny people is inconsequential... to this discussion at least... ie one can eat nothing but Big-Macs and french fries... but if they wanted to get all of their say vitamins without taking a multi... and all their anti-oxidants etc... what's the trick without having a refrigerator stocked such that looks like it belongs at a hamster rescue? Plus... it never fails, you buy too much of the stuff at the grocery, and it goes bad. I want to maximize the equation here. If one only needs 1/16th cup of spinach leaves in a day for whatever it provides, why buy the giant bag for an entire week and have it wind up going bad... when a much smaller bag will do the trick just as well.
I think the only answer that most nutritionists agree on is the old reliable food pyramid. Simply eating the balanced proportions that are recommended is probably the easiest guideline. Of course, more nutritionally powerful foods can be found within each group. I doubt you will find a hard number on what you are looking for, although it is a noble quest.
It is a "noble quest"... ...because if this guy (referencing the original post) is claiming... and has testimonies to back up those claims, let alone selling 100's of thousands of jars of this stuff monthly.... ...based on my crude analysis of his input costs... the food pyramid that we have seen since we were kids... (and that conspiracy theorists claim is brainwashing by the likes of GIS or Kellogs lol).... inquiring minds want a scientific answer to this question.
