With regards to HG exercise I have added things like tag, dodge ball, and simply playing catch with a football in addition to weights, sprinting, and martial arts training. The results keep pleasantly surprising me. I just visited Dr. Cordain two weeks ago and he was not thrilled with the book either. His editor was a pulitzer prize winner and was ruthless about creating a book at an 8th grade reading level. Cordain said he may release a much more technical book but it would be more a work of love/art as the money involved will be a fraction that of the current book. as some what an asside i leave for fort collins on saturday to begin a new job at an analytical chemistry lab and hopefully this time next year I will start working with Dr. Cordain on my grad program!
