Official 2011 Supernova Elite pursuit thread, with related chat - Page 21 - Internet Poker

Idk if this was posted in the past or not (and if so would someone have the link), does anyone have any health / diet tips to increase your stamina for grinding to keep up with the sne pace?

Thanks

lots of redbull and punching bag

regular gym/sports is a must(3+ times a week)
but that is true for any "sitting job"

squats are most important(to stenghten core)

I always had back problems when i was little and out of shape, completely gone now

do some yoga or P90x Stretching like I just did. Definitely helps. Also, needbeer had a great post about this, either in last year's SNE Pursuit thread or his well. Either way, he basically suggests B vitamins as well as Ginko, among other things.

Here is something I wrote a couple months ago..

Breakfast: I usually start with some "Living Intention" cereal, my favorites are the Acai/Blueberry and the Chia Ginger (note that it is expensive cereal though.. but you get what you pay for imo.) I pour almond or hazelnut milk over, as oddly enough I mentioned earlier in the well. I also like to follow that up with a bowl of diced fruit (my body has an intolerance to several fruits, such as oranges, and mangos.. food intolerances are a common symptom of people with Lyme or other immune problems. But the ones I can eat, I enjoy plenty of. Buy organic.

Lunch: My favorite is sushi. 3 or 4 times a week I eat tuna/salmon/yellowtail sashimi, usually with a salad and light soup.

Dinner: As always, I try to maintain a balanced meal. Organic meats and produce. And stay away from all the bleached flour products... all these doughs, breads, buns, etc.

And I snack throughout the day, such as mixed nuts, among other things (like the Raw bar mentioned in my blog). The less processed the food usually equates to the healthier the food. Just because you go to the store and buy a bag of chips that say 'baked' or 'low fat' on them doesn't mean they are good for you. Sure, relative to the greasy fried chips they are a godsend, but compared to a handful of cashews they are the antichrist. If you're going to buy packaged products, read the ingredient labels and gravitate toward products where you can pronounce everything on the label.

As for the whole diet thing...it's all about dem raw fruits and vegetables gentlemen...no getting around it...that + cardio exercise and body-weight execises (pull-ups, push-ups, dips, squats) are everything it takes!

gl y'all, i'm real behind today due to personal sh*t....at 40K now, planning on maybe playing all night to get to 50K...we will see!

Love,
Poopy

Who else is still in school while pursuing SNE? Undergrad or grad school? I will be graduating from law school in May, so I only have to handle those obligations for < 1/2 the year. I can't wait to be done.
