 Diet And Neurodegeneration   "…..I have held the belief that people never got strong eating from a vending machine."John Welbourn, Talk To Me Johnny

Future Games Competitor   "To be a competitive CrossFit athlete you have to have a big engine, incredible physical capacity and almost a uncanny ability to recover. You have to be strong enough to make everything look easy, but not too strong that it skews the balance. I would say 5’7?- 5’10?, 165-185 lbs is about the build, with a 250 lbs clean, over body weight snatch, 400 lbs squat, 500 lbs deadlift and 50+ pull ups. You need to be 800 meters fast, not 100 meter fast. Do you know the difference? A elite 100 meter sprinter can hold top speed for 10-11 seconds and then they shut it down. You need a sprinter that hold top speed in the 800 meters. And a nice skill set that allows you to handle anything from swimming to basic gymnastics moves."—John Welbourn, Talk To Me Johnny
