The first guy, apparently is strictly vegan. He says he only eats raw vegetables and fruits (and nuts I suppose). He obviously has little body fat and he keeps in good shape. Despite what he says about sun I don't think he gets much sun exposure himself. I can't see any tanned parts on his skin. His fitness regime must be more then short interval training. I think he lifts weight regularly at the gym. And while he looks great, he doesn't look like a teenager.
I don't know what's the deal with growth hormone, why it is supposed to be so good for anti aging according to non medical anti aging experts/potions peddlers. As for Testosterone, I don't think there is any reason to take supplement of that, maybe for elderly people with really low levels. Hormones can be dangerous especially sex hormones. Testosterone is related to prostate cancer I believe, and to head hair loss, and to body hair growth. Estrogen is related to breast and ovarian cancer. I wouldn't want to risk my health with overdosing on hormones based on some charlatan's advice.
i humbly disagree mate.
I think both are bang on with exercise. Quick burtsts are far better than these stupid 10k runs and more. For starters the constant jarring of the face muscles of long distant running, especially putdoors in the sun and wind with not good. Also long distant runners especially marathan runners do not live longer. In fact not only does it Ruin the ligaments and cartlidge from the jarring effect of long distance running, but also its showing no evidence to help with the heart. So many "fit as a fiddle" men die of Heart attacks due to Marathns.
I think a short phase sport such as tennis twice a week, and some press ups and gentle dumbell work. With pleanty of walking is ideal imo.
In the sun. I have come to the conclusion that you should where sunscreen, but to stay out f the sun is a no no. Dont sun bath etc, by all means as that saturates the vitimin d, but 15-30 minutes a day with sun screen should give you the much needed vitimin d levels.
Also i think the guy takes it to far(the teenager dude) but i agree that eating the correct fruits and vegatables produce the antioxidant to neutralise the UVA rays. So i bet with all the tomatos etc the guy eats he tans but never burns. I still think he should wear sunscreen but i admire his advice.
how many people would die of skin cancer if they eat fresh tomatos, spinich sweet potatoes etc every day.
So although i dont agree with all the videos state i think they have alot of backbone behind what they say.
