How do you stay healthy?
Tamerlin: I live in a fairly large city (Seattle), but it's not QUITE like NYC...I walk a fair amount, mainly to and from the bus, and within downtown Seattle when I go to after-work gatherings and events.I also spend a lot of time in the dojo, both as a teacher and as a student. I tend to take advantage of being a teacher to raise the level of intensity enough to give myself a workout, but I also carry that intensity to other styles where I'm a student. It makes for better training overall.I also do a lot of hiking, nearly every weekend, usually in the mountains, and with a 50-pound pack full of, in addition to the usual supplies, my large-format camera kit. The camera gear accounts for around 30 pounds out of the 50.Other less obvious things I do are eat a healthy breakfast (almost) every morning, do a lot of my own cooking, and drink herbal tea rather than a lot of caffeinated beverages. That is not to say that I avoid caffeine; I do like to have a cup of coffee in the mornings, but I try to avoid caffeine beyond that, mainly to avoid dehydration.
