As we have been described, "….overflowing with foul mouthed ignorance,…"

This post was in response to a question about lowering cholesterol levels and the use of statins. "Sandman" a physician, chimed in and his advice, or the advice of any physician should always be considered first. You get it, try this at your own risk, it’s ideas between a bunch of misfits who find calmness at the center of the storm.

Listen up.
1. Get un fat. Nobody is putting a f**king gun to your head and forcing you to eat. Get under 12% and forget about the chubby squatters who have man boobs and fat aprons over their genital region.
2. Drop all grains. I know, I know, plenty of populations eat rice, corn, yadda-yadda. Just drop them and maybe eat an occasional bowl of oats since that may the least invasive of the grains (opinions vary).
3. Make fun of Art DeVany, but go to his blog, search "meals" print them out and eat that way for six months. Then laugh.
4. Take a broad spectrum anti-oxidant. Don’t OD, just get your ass covered.
5. Talk to your Doc about Niacin. I like the flush, other’s get ill. Kinda like Scotch.
6. Drink Red Wine
7. Start a good fat eating program. Avocados, Olive Oil, TOASTED Sesame Oil, Macadamia Oil. That’s at the top of the list. Also a handful of nuts per day. No excuses.
8. Met Con circuits. I know @fit is ghey, but find some of the metcons you like and do them 2 to 3 days per week.
9. Easy walking for stress relief, active recovery, and the psycho-tropic qualities.
10. Minimize rest on strength training, or measure it. I refer to this as "Iron Pulse(tm)" and I will be writing more about it. Your poundages will drop slightly but who wants a 1000 pound squat when your nose is bleeding and your testicles are the size of raisins?
11. Fish Oil, with heavy DHA content. That means Barry Sears, BioTest Flame Out, or Krill Oil which now available from Costco. Also from Costco,.. .Vit. C, and their CoQ10 is cheap and good insurance.
12. Eat Fish and diversify the source and type.
13. NO SUGARY drinks, carbs, bread, bagels, pasta, rice, etc. for a while.
14. Every plate should have lean protein, veggies and fruit, and a small amount of good fat.
15. Floss your damn teeth before I knock them out! Gum disease translates to heart disease.

I’ll think of more. Always ask Scott. He’s a Doctor and was a stunt double in "Live Free or Die Hard".
