Eat to Live or Live to Eat?

Many students, Taekwondo or Thai-Robics, always ask me about nutrition. I love it! I love when someone is curious in making a change. Tonight, I'd like to blog about a way of eating that will help you look your best and achieve at your best.

The last thing I'm going to do is write down how many fat you're supposed to consume or the whole of protein, carbs, or fat, you need in a day. That's absurd- solely because I need to know your body composition. By the way, we do those for free in the extreme Body Challenge (Ubc).

Food And Dessert

More importantly, I'm going to try and progress your context. If you've read books on nutrition, you've vast your content. Think of context as the bowl that holds the content. Get it? :)

First of all, if you want to be thriving at the nourishment game, you must conclude right now why you eat. Of course, when asked, every person says they, "eat to live." Why do you eat dessert? Most desserts have very microscopic nutritional value. Still, population treat themselves to some sort of dessert every single day, be it a grande white chocolate mocha, or some sort of ritual bedtime treat.

If you treat yourself to a dessert on a daily basis, you are living to eat. When you live to eat, you get fat! I'm not going to sugar coat this (pun intended). This is the truth, and hopefully I can shift your thinking.

Life is an splendid experience. In fact, for me, it gets even more splendid everyday I wake up. Everyday, I learn something new. Tony Robbins often says, "If you're not growing, then you're rotting." One of the most splendid things about life is that we have choices. We are blessed with the capability to choose. Everyday, I see population that have chosen to be obese. I see population who have chosen to be poor. I see population who have chosen mediocrity.

Whoa! How did get on this field from nutrition? Let me explain... I am attempting to live my life to the fullest. I am teaching Taekwondo students how to defend themselves, compete in tournaments, or how to use their skills in other areas of life to help them come to be successful. I teach Thai-Robics and Sport Fusion to help population get more out of life. I plan on conducting workshops on a global scale someday. I plan on building an additional one jungle gym for my kids, when we move, like I did this past weekend.

Life is too great to devote it to eating. This is what I call "living to eat." If you want the most out of life, "eat to live." conclude right now that the foods you eat are not for pleasure, but for endurance, strength, and stamina. Life has many pleasures and there is no reason to get that satisfaction from food. So... I leave you with this- why do you eat?
