Cool for body builders, but a better educator for general fitness is Mark

Sissons. check out his " Mark's Daily Apple " web site.

Check out the easy, comprehensible Primal Blueprint:

I as a general fitness fan don't want the precision that bodybuilders enjoy.

Most bodybuilders lack accuracy in their knowledge.

It's important to understand caloric intake and VO2Max for a few key reasons. 

This way you can measure down to a " t " just how much carb and fat you need to

store before an activity.  You can also measure the amount of calories you need

to take in a day.  If you aren't consuming enough calories your body will

cannibalize your muscle tissue and slow down your metabolism.  This can lead to

obesity or skinny fat with a higher fat percentage.

Now that I have the ratios measured out in my diet I can save a lot of money

because I am not wasting money on unnecessary calories.  You'll find your body

prefers a high fat diet.

I finally figured out VO2Max.  It took me a couple days to get it.  With this

knowledge I'm ahead of the game.

LOL I can but I sure won't. A simple log of food and movement does the trick.

I guess I am saying my opinion is WAPF is not lacking because that precision is

not needed.

More than likely you go into the category of low intensity lifestyle.  I would

guess that because of the material you show and the fact you have a high fat

diet.  You more than likely can stick to the ratio of 15% carbohydrate and 85%

fat.  You would want .36g of protein per a pound of bodyweight.  Most WAPF

members probably live sedentary lifestyles.  It is still important to determine

the necessary level of calorie intake.  Many people may not be taking in enough

calories.  I wouldn't be surprised with that theory.

So counting calories would be good for everybody.  You would just need to write

down your caloric intake and it will likely be the same everyday.  Unless your

schedule changes on a particular day or you don't work...

VO2Max is far more important to WAPF athletes and moderate-higher intensity

activity individuals.  I don't see anybody raising their hands but I'm sure

there are those people here too.  They just like to hide and not talk about it.

A food log can simply count grams, and a movement log can record activity and

intensity. After one learns the subtle body signs of intensity. VO2 max and

calorie calculations are not required.

Heart rate itself is a good correlation with VO2 max anyway - I've done VO2 max

tests at fitness college and heart rate is one of the things you watch. As well

as oxygenation. And you know the end of the test is not just when metabolic

markers level off, but when certain physical signs are present. So one can learn

to use the same physical signs and you don't need the numbers.

For the record, I personally have all intensities in my own program, yes high

intensity too.

A matter of style preference I guess.

Most people aren't aware enough to be able to judge their VO2Max like that

unless they did a lot of studying in that subject.

I personally just figured it out by reading the calorie calculator and judging

VO2Max and calories burned.  I'm not literally going to pay that much attention

to my heartbeat.

It is not that the Weston A Price Foundation (WAPF) is lacking this,

it is that such is not the mission of WAPF to focus on a very small

minority of the population. That said, WAPF has devoted some material

on how to eat WAP like as a bodybuilder.

On the other hand, WAP, as in the original material of Weston A Price

has **nothing** to do with what you are talking about above except in

the very general sense that physical activity is good thing.

Have you read NAPD? If you haven't I would highly recommend it.
