Yo guys as a testament to clean living and the benefits of that to the longevity and well being of the body i have 2 very famous individuals who spring to mind
A) Helio Gracie, who is well into his 80's i believe and has stayed away from all crap and proclaims to have never eaten anything that wasnt good for him and is still able to get on the mat and have a good roll around.
B) Apideh Sit Hurin "the living legend" with over 300+ muay thai fights, and proclaimed kicker of the century. Who must be 70 at least and can hold the pads for anybody and is still nimble on his feet.
I have yet to meet one of these Muay Thai boxers that everybody talks about who are burned out and can no longer walk etc in there old age, everyone that i have seen tend to have benefited long term from there dedication to the purity of a Thai boxer in respect of Food, Training, resting and general healthy living. And the way Buakow is going i beleive that he will be one of these people who will age slowly and be healthy later in life even after his demanding regime. If you thought buakows regime was hard, Apideh did 20 minutes of jumpups to strengthen the legs for his kicks, 20 minutes of jumping up with your knees coming up, now thats "old" school. !!!!!!
