Hi all!
First let me say that I've LOVED being on this forum the past few months.
You all are the most intelligent, thoughtful, and kind (for the most part hehe) group of internet-users I've ever come across!
So...thanks for being you. Thanks for being freethinkers, at a time when this type of thinking seems to be increasingly looked down upon.

That prologue aside, onto the purpose of this log.
I'm going to try and combine Peat principles with old-school bodybuilding in an attempt to gain muscle without sacrificing health or healthspan.
My entire life I've had this innate desire to be physically healthy and mentally free. Since the time I was about 4 years old, I've had the sense that the diseases of humanity were optional and not genetically determined. Weird, right?
Anyways...recently I've been learning more and more about old school bodybuilders. The way they lived...the way they trained...it's fascinating stuff!
Many of them followed principles that we'd now recognize as being 'Peaty' - or at least bioenergetically-friendly - and these principles produced incredible results.
I think their methods can be further improved by combining their training principles with Dr. Peat's metabolic principles.
In this log I'll do my best to document whether this union of Peat + Silver Era bodybuilding succeeds or fails.
Hope you all get something out of whatever happens next!
