POLITICAL CORRECTNESS

  • Can’t call a flight attendant a stewardess or a house keeper a maid
  • Everyone is offended too easily!

CHRIS KELLY

  • Website nourishbalancethrive.com
  • Similar story to Vinnie but is smarter and figured it out quicker
  • Chris started falling apart (brain fog, fatigue, low libido) once he came to the US and started eating in the cafeteria at work
  • Was riding bikes and racing a lot
    • Was nearly a pro mountain biker (Category 1)
  • Full-suspension bikes are fun!
  • Doctors were not helping him so he had to find out things for himself

GETTING SICK

  • Chris had incredible fatigue — not normal athlete fatigue
    • in the afternoon he couldn’t keep his eyes open, but at night being incredibly hyper
      • Vinnie remembers this too
    • would have to sleep at work
  • Both made excuses for the reason they were feeling so tired and passed it off as normal
    • what IS normal these days?
  • Cortisol follows circadian rhythm, highest in morning, lowest at night — therefore, a good and normal sleep schedule is necessary
    • To fix one’s circadian rhythm, one must realize what first affects it
      • Exposure to sun, blue light, etc.

DIET

  • He was eating lots of sugar and grains
  • Took him awhile to figure out that they were hurting them due to the fact that a high carb diet is preached to athletes
  • Went cold turkey
  • Bloating went away almost immediately, started to feel better
  • Had some left over symptoms that resolved as he kept with it

A DAY IN THE FOOD-LIFE OF CHRISTOPHER KELLY

  • Doesn’t insist on eggs for breakfast
    • Eats leftovers for breakfast
  • Eat what you have!
  • Vinnie doesn’t eat lunch often because he has big breakfasts and his body is using the fat
  • Intense athletes have to be careful that they are eating enough even if they aren’t hungry
