My initial Epic Quest (Physical goals):

 

1. I have maintained a clean, pristine, mindful diet for 30 days, 60 days, 120 days = 5, 10, 25 points

 

• I will slowly, mindfully eat each meal without distractions.
• I will chew each bite thoroughly and savor the flavor of food. 
• I will be grateful for the health I’m receiving from the food.
• I will stop eating when I’m full and not start eating when I’m not yet hungry. 
• I will not eat pseudo foods, toxic oils, pasteurized / homogenized dairy, or grains & legumes, except once per month.
• I will not drink alcohol more than once per week.

 

2. I have made fitness and exercising a priority, and listened to my body for 30 days, 60 days, 120 days = 5, 10, 25 points

 

• I will do NF strength training workouts 2 x per week (either gym or body weight at home).
• I will do a sprint workout (per Mark Sisson’s directions) 1 x per week.
• I will run, walk, hike, or play, within my aerobic capacity, every single other day. 
• I will warmup, cool down, and stretch with every strength training or sprint workout.
• I will IF >=2 x per week (24 or 36 hour)
• I will not workout when I am ill, stressed, or otherwise showing signs of overtraining.
