Chaotic Patterns

1-19-06
Our bodies are subject to the laws of the universe as is all matter, but I speak not only of the laws of Newton, but also chaotic, non-linear laws. Most bodybuilders adhere to the divide and conquer mindset as most reductionist approaches do and never vary techniques or randomize their schedule (3 times a week is the mantra). Today at lunchtime, I varied my usual crossfit wholistic approach and did the divide and conquer, I isolated the body parts. Whole, part, whole is how our brains learn the quickest and most thorough, why not the body as well? I followed up with some 50 and 100 yard sprints this afternoon. Our bodies respond to high intensity short duration loads by secreting growth hormone. I only ate beef protein afterwards to prevent bloodsugar spiking and insulin secretion which squelches the growth hormone.
