For health, vegetarian is the best way to go and probably the best all around.  Read "The China Study" an eye opening book going over the largest study of diet ever completed.

Cliff Notes: if you are a man and want to avoid prostate cancer, stop eating meat and dairy.  If you are a woman who wants to avoid breast cancer and diabetes, stop eating meat and diary.

There are several cultures who eat meat almost exclusively and they are extremely healthy.

He is definitely an outlier in terms of good physical health compared to other 53 year olds (or any age for that matter).

A couple of things to note:

- He has been a vegan for 20 years but been training for 45 years. He ate whole animal proteins for 25 years while training. How much muscle mass did he have when he became a vegan? Probably no more than he has now (although he could be leaner now).

- He is very ripped. He also looks to be about 150-160 pounds max.

- Amino acids are essential for synthesising new muscle tissue. However many overestimate how much protein is actually required. When calories from carbs and fat are adequate, the amino acid requirement to create new muscle tissue and repair damaged muscle tissue is reduced.

I wouldn't mind trying a vegetarian diet, but how do you get enough quality protein for muscle building purposes?

A compromise might be a pescetarian diet as fish probably don't feel pain in the same way as mammals do, so fish can be killed and eaten with a clear conscience.

I know a number of body builders almost entirely vegan diet but on the juice of course. And they have built amazing physiques. Really lean hard full muscle look without any guy.

Is this a new trend I wonder? And was the whole protein powder thing a scam I wonder?

Get It In Anywhere – Anthony “iNatural” Alderman
 

I’ve been known to lift stones and logs, perform pull-ups from trees, and run hills in the woods. Therefore, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that I’ve also featured several like-minded individuals. Yesterday’s entry is a prime example. The footage from that story is some of the best I’ve seen. Unfortunately, not everyone has access to such beautiful and secluded landscapes. That’s no reason to avoid training outside however. Contrary to what some may initially assume, wooded areas are not the only options for outdoor training. In fact, some of the best calisthenic displays that you’ll ever see can be found in urban playgrounds. The video below of Anthony “iNatural” Alderman is a great example. He’s been training on the bars for over 45 years now.

Anthony “iNatural” Alderman
At age 53, Anthony Alderman is physically more capable than the vast majority of adults half his age. He performs exercises such as muscle-ups with ease. His physique is also a testament to his hard work and consistency. All of those years of training have created a body that is strong, lean, and capable.



No Secrets
It’s obviously great to see a 53 year old man perform at such a high level. What I like most about the story isn’t Anthony’s ability however, but rather the simple approach that he subscribes to with training. There is no secret to his success. Anthony Alderman has trained for longer than many reading this entry have been alive. He is yet another product of hard work and consistency.

As far as the exercises he performs, there are some neat variations, but everything is relatively straightforward. There’s nothing overly complicated or flashy. He’s clearly rooted in the fundamentals. The bodyweight squats, pushups, and pull-ups that he performs are available to anyone. The difference therefore between Anthony and others isn’t the exercises that he performs, but rather his willingness to continually perform those exercises on a regular basis. He doesn’t jump from program to program. He’s figured out what he enjoys and what works for him and never strays far from the basics.

I’ve often said that the average person does not need anything but a regular dose of a few basic exercises. For example, imagine if it was common for every adult to regularly perform a few sets of pushups, pull-ups, dips, squats, and lunges. That alone would lead to huge improvements in quality of life for many adults. Anyone who suggests otherwise is either ignorant or likely sells gym memberships for a living.

In summary, Anthony Alderman clearly demonstrates the potential of a simple calisthenic program. He also shows that the body can continue to function at a high level as the years pass. Imagine if everyone followed suit and began to perform similar exercises on a regular basis. Perhaps this story wouldn’t even be a story. It would just be what we all expect from adults at any age.
