To chime back in; there is no substitute for personal research. At the same time, a person can find a study, or set of studies, or well documented data to support many different perspectives. The problem is that our body today is the result of what we have done over many past years. Much like a building; what we see is based on a foundation we often cannot see. But, unlike a building we are constantly changing our foundation. The building of tomorrow is based on the foundation of today so build wisely. Therein is the challenge; what is Wisely?

There are couple of basic principles that seem to apply under all circumstances. To make a body stronger it must be stressed, fed and rested. It is better to feed a body simple food than manufactured food (which eliminates about 90% of what is in the supermarket). The body will acclimate to stress levels and so to continually grow stress levels must also grow.

There is lots of information available from successful endeavours in othe sports like body building, running, etc. How a person tailors that to their own body is very individual.
