Ya know, I’ve been thinking a lot about what significant life events change one completely. There’s the before and the after. I would say there’s probably two, and that’s death, you’re no longer the same person, and birth. It is an instantaneous right of passage.” (06:39) “The moment we become comfortable is the moment that our progress stops.” (16:42) “There’s a lot of myth out there that individuals believe that the protein requirements are different for men versus women. And that’s actually not true. Protein requirements are based on blood volume and lean muscle mass.” (35:10) “It is probably the single worst piece of advice that anyone could be given is to, in mid-life, go vegan or vegetarian.” (37:45) “Really you should keep your protein consistent. So, whether it’s the first meal of the day, your first meal of the day, the first thing you’re eating doesn’t have to be breakfast, but it needs to be high-protein.” (48:23) “I think it [The Game Changers] does a good job to show diversity. But, the truth is it’s a fear-mongering, propaganda film that is dangerous for the public and dangerous for our aging population. There’s little to no science in that film.” (1:11:22) “That actually is one of their [Navy SEALs] superpowers is humor. It could literally be the worst situation ever and they’re making jokes about it. It is uncanny their capacity for optimism.” (1:19:57) “So, we all think practice makes perfect. But really, practice – and I’m talking about the mental practice – makes permanent.” (1:24:05) LINKS MENTIONEDBetter!
