10 Laws to Live By

I am reading "The Primal Blueprint" written by Mark Sisson. In chapter one, he outlines 10 laws everyone should live by. The book is very interesting and filled with a lot of great information. Here are his 10 laws and a brief description of each. I highly recommend reading his book - especially if you want to know more about his 10 laws to live by:

Law #1: Eat lots of Plants and Animals. Enjoy the natural, satisfying foods that fueled two million years of human evolution.

Law #2: Avoid Poisonous Things. Avoid processed foods (sugars, grains, and chemically altered fats) that are foreign to our genes and make us fat and sick.

Law #3: Move Frequently at a Slow Place. Enhance fat metabolism and avoid burnout by keeping active but taking it easy.

Law #4: Lift Heavy Things. Short, intense sessions of functional, full-body movements support muscle development and delay aging.

Law #5: Sprint Once in a While. Occasional all-out sprints trigger optimal gene expression and beneficial hormone flow.

Law #6: Get Adequate Sleep. Avoid excessive digital stimulation and sync with your natural circadian rhythm for optimal immune, brain, and endocrine function.

Law #7: Play. Balance the stress of modern life with some unstructured, physical fun!

Law #8: Get Adequate Sunlight. Don't fear the sun! Adequate sun exposure helps synthesize vitamin D to ensure healthy cellular function.

Law #9: Avoid Stupid Mistakes. Cultivate hypervigilance and risk management to avoid the stupid mistakes that bring "avoidable suffering" to modern humans.

Law #10: Use Your Brain. Engaging creative and stimulating activities to nurture your mental health and overall well-being.

Just for fun - here are some amazing strength movements. The moves are almost unreal, but incredibly cool!
