Starting Hints

May 26, 2005 10:10 AM

If you decide to embark on the evolutionary fitness way, it is your choice. So, take responsibility to know what you are doing and take care.

1. It is helpful to have someone check your form. Bad form, bad results.

2. Ask your doctor to check your insulin level (serum insulin). Not your glucose tolerance, your insulin level. If it is above 8 you may already be started down the aging cascade. My insulin level is 3.4, below the range for the lab. My doctor and I know this is good.

3. Your insulin level should fall as you progress in eating and playing/working out the evolutionary fitness way. If it doesn't you are doing something wrong.

4. Check your blood pressure now and then. You can use a meter at home or one in the drug store. After a workout your pulse should be a bit higher and your blood pressure a bit lower. That is a sign of a good workout. If your blood pressure drifts up over time, then you are overtraining.

5. Let it happen. The changes will come at their own pace. You can't force it or make it happen. You are trying to release your body and mind from the 21st century metronomic rhythms and live the way you were designed by evolution to live.

6. It will happen. A year from now you will look back at how far you have come. And you will be hooked.
