    When i switched to keto, dropped 30 lbs and regained a bunch of speed, i thought every athlete should try it.

    There is a chance this plant based diet could be a fountain of youth for Christopher.

    I like to get the Beyond Meat on my burritos at Freebirds sometimes. It's pretty good.

    In the new era of the stepback three, having a cloud of broccoli-powered farts around you is an effective tactic for a getting little extra distance between you and your defender.

    He could avoid the farts by using a juicer, but that would take away his smell advantage. Yes, I actually juice entire purple cabbages and drink them!

    It really depends on genes. I feel like **** after a lot of beef or fish, but good after pork with potatoes and my friend is exactly opposite... i was drinking milk all the way up to my 18s+ only to find out that im not tolerating it. Feeling 5x better since i dont even think bout milk. Was feeling sleepy and couldnt gain a pound my whole life until i went on a diet with 3000-3500kcal of balanced food and all of a sudden i slowly gain weight while having energy for the whole day. some may feel better with meat totalny eliminated - i have no doubt bout it

    So this definitely explains the weight loss and increased speed from last year.


    His entire body definition has changed each year from 2014 to now. 2015-2017 were the most similar.

    Last year he was stocky as ****.

    It seems to me he should focus on not inviting people over to his house, who ultimately, upon their arrival, try to destroy it.

    Nobody's falling for that "What did you do to your house?" crap.

    What did you do to your kitchen?

    WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY KITCHEN?

    I didn't do nothin'. It's easy to ... that's not me. He has a beard just like me and you know ... beard is pretty dope, honestly.

    ARE YOU SERIOUS RIGHT NOW?

    That's not me.

    James, that's you.

    :D

    Some days I look back and think “huh, I haven’t eaten any meat at all today”

    Other days I’ll be out at the grill making steaks or burgers.

    I just listen to my body man. It wants what it wants when it wants it.

    It's just sounding ironic being in Houston Texas. It's steak city.

    but the good thing is... he'll make it to the Finals now with a ring.

    Did it really make a difference though. He was hurt last year, the year before, and this year. He misses time every year so where is the proof that not eating meat is beneficial?

    You’re raising this question when one of the players believes the world is flat?

    But to give CP3 some credit a lot of people attest to it

    That’s a great idea because I have terrible takes.

    My personal "theory" is that you can eat a plant-based diet that's "as near as makes no difference" to a meat diet.

    But that's a much different argument than "it's better", for sure.

    Let's play the guess game. First question. Can you smoke that "plant"?

    I have to ignore my body when it wants to eat a bag full of cookies or a half gallon of Blue Bell.

    That’s the plant based diet I’m on. But it’s weird. For some reason it makes me want to eat meat.

    Remember when Arian Foster switched to a plant-based diet?

    Pepperidge farm remembers.
