World-Class Fitness in 100 Words

Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch, and no sugar.  Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat.

Practice and train major lifts: deadlift, clean, squat, presses, clean and jerk, and snatch.  Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds.  Bike, run, swim, row, etc., hard and fast.

Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow.  Routine is the enemy.  Keep workouts short and intense.

Regularly learn and play new sports.

With the Super Bowl being tomorrow (Go Colts), check out this article on diet from the New York Times: "One Bowl = 2 Servings"

"Munch half a bag of Tostitos while watching the Super Bowl and you could take in about half the 2,000 calories an average person needs in a day."

255 - 275 - 285
Switched to a more vertical start position
225 - 185 - 195 - 215

Inverted pulls caught up to me by the end - very difficult to keep a stiff upper back.
Hook grip great for single reps, less so for 5's. Thumb crushing.
