The PBF Schedule
PBF employs the simple principles that I (and
now thousands of Primal Blueprint followers)
have used to regain, build and maintain superb
strength and health. These principles are visually
illustrated by the Primal Blueprint Fitness Pyra-
mid, of which anyone that has read my book is
intimately familiar.
At 57 years of age, I now work out less than I ever
did in my twenties and thirties, yet I am as strong
as I’ve ever been. I can still sprint well and, despite
no other specific cardio training, am fit enough to
hop into a 10k race, a trail run, or a 50-mile bike
ride whenever I feel like it. Most importantly, I’ve
been able to take up new, fun (much more fun!)
sports. Ironically, many people say that I look fitter
and healthier now than I looked when I was a
world-class athlete. But the truth is, I only work out
for two reasons now: 1) So I can play more and play
harder. 2) So I can reduce the risk of injury while
I’m playing more and playing harder!
Today my competitive flame still burns brightly,
but instead of fighting to the death on the steam-
ing hot lava fields of the Hawaii Ironman course,
