25 fitness tips from Covert Baily
Some I agree with, some I don't. But overall it's very balanced perspective. I wonder what would happen if someone gave him a KB.
1 Exercise. If exercise were a pill, it would be the most widely prescribed medicine in the world.
2 Eat a balanced diet, lower in fat, lower in sugar and higher in fiber.
3 Diets don’t work. Exercise is the bottom line behavior for weight management.
4 Throw away your scales. Measuring your body fat is a better indicator of health than your weight.
5 When trying to lose fat, aim for a maximum of 2 pounds a week.
6 If spot reducing worked, people who chew gum would have skinny faces.
7 Crash dieting, over exercising and fasting will slow down your metabolism.
8 People don’t stop exercising because they grow old, they grow old because they stop exercising.
9 It’s easy to lose weight. The challenge is to keep it off. Exercise works.
10 Don’t worry so much about your heart rate when you exercise. Use common sense and pace yourself so you can talk.
11 When you exercise, remind yourself, “I’m building fat-burning enzymes.”
12 If you get out of breath when you exercise, you’re going too fast.
13 One of the best ways to reduce stress is to exercise.
14 The older you are, the more important it is that you exercise. Exercise makes bones denser. Exercise helps maintain mobility.
15 Labels don’t lie, but liars write labels.
16 Statistics are like bikinis. They only reveal half the truth.
17 Upper-body weight training will help women maintain lean body mass.
18 More muscle equals less workout time.
19 Don’t say, “I don’t eat red meat.” Say, “I don’t eat greasy meats.”
20 There’s no such thing as cellulite. The word was dreamed up by people with products to market to describe skin with texture that shows underlying fat on some women more than others.
21 The best aerobic exercise is the one you’ll do every day.
22 The best time to exercise is when you will do it.
23 If you don’t seem to be getting more fit, you may be exercising too hard.
24 If you exercise more than 45 minutes 5 days a week, you aren’t doing it for fitness sake.
25 Beware of medically monitored diet programs. If you need a doctor, there must be something wrong.
Although he didn't advocate HIIT cardio per say I do remember him saying that the best way to get in shape was to jog on a street with many streetlights or utility poles. Jog to the first one, sprint to the next, repeat untill fit.

I agree with you. like a lot of the things he is saying, and for seriously deconditioned, overweight people walking or light aerobic is the best thing, and sometimes the only thing, they can do.
He would like kettlebells and the principles I would bet. The new research is pretty clear on HIIT.nice find.
I always liked him. He said a lot of things that stuck in my head. He had a very comedian-like prescence. He said to stay away from ALL refined sugar. There was a woman that asked him about honey, he said it's refined by bees stay away from it. She started whining about honey being natural.
He replied "Syphillis is natural too but it will still kill you."
I've got a few more:
* If you want to approach death in 10 minutes, get yourself a 2-pood.
* If you want to approach life in 10 minutes, get pissed off and pound on a heavy bag.
* Always choose sex over exercise, as having more sex is the true purpose of exercise.
* Don't eat too much, because food costs money, and extra money can be better spent on guns.
* Don't say "I don't eat red meat." Instead, say "I do eat red meat."
* The best aerobic exercise is the kind that doesn't make you look like a fag. If you want to run, sprint instead, preferably up hills.
LMAO. leave it to you man
