Most people think I eat super-strict and never have
foods like pizza, ice cream or cheeseburgers.
I often get comments like “I wish I could be as disciplined as you with
food” or “You must eat kale sandwiches all day long”. I don’t feel like I’m “disciplined” when it
comes to food in any special way. I eat
a lot and like to eat good food as evidenced by my Tweets of SBX Gold Medalcelebration meals. What I do have is a
certain level of consistency with following some simple food guidelines over a
significant period of time. You too can
apply these principles and experience a significant improvement in your health
and physical condition (this is assuming you do not have any specific medical
conditions that require a specific nutrition plan).

A few things go along with eating the way I
do: intense physical exertion in the gym
and on the snow/trails along with adequate recovery time (sleep/rest). It’s not enough to just work out in the gym -
you can’t out-work crappy nutrition. You
also won’t get the most benefit from quality foods and solid training without
appropriate rest and recovery. The
results of eating well will help and have an effect, but you can have a much
greater impact on your physical state with all 3 elements working together.
