This weekend was the annual Fitness Summit in Kansas City, Missouri. The best and brightest fitness minds in the world gather here each year to attend seminars, network, hear the latest in cutting edge research..........................and drink themselves stupid. On Friday and Saturday, the most fitness and health oriented people on the planet................go out and eat the worlds worst food and consume enough booze to keep an Irishman happy for a month. So, what gives? Why would the people who are the MOST in tune with their bodies and their health throw caution to the wind and treat themselves like a garbage dump for 48 hours? Because those who pay attention to fitness have a few common factors: 1. They know getting lean is a skill. Its hard and difficult at first. But once you master it, its like riding a bike. So, taking a weekend off to consume and imbibe means nothing. 2. They have the mental toughness ability to follow a program very closely with optimal compliance. Since the skill of getting lean has been developed, they know what it takes to do it again. And they can. Easily. 3. They lift heavy. Damn near every one. Which means the food consumed will be put to good use in the weightroom on Monday. And it wont be stored as fat. 4. They understand that if they dont take some time to enjoy the forbidden fruits, then what in the hell is the point? Enough said. -Jason
