Optimization Vectors

Just as in software an engineer can optimize along several vectors (memory footprint, performance, maintainability, etc), there are multiple body optimization vectors as well. While there are many points of overlap (e.g. lost excessive body fat, particularly abdominal fat), there are interesting differences in emphasis (e.g. focus more on protein consumption or caloric restriction), end states (e.g. optimal weight) and strategies (e.g. anaerobic exercise vs. low-impact aerobic activity).

Some optimization vectors and example strategies:

* Longevity
** **Diet**: caloric restriction and nutrient density
** **Exercise**: low-impact aerobic and anaerobic exercise
** **Supplementation**: \"aggressive supplementation\"
** **Mental exercises**: focus on reducing stress
* Activity-specific Performance
** **Diet**: high-quality proteins and larger caloric intakes to build appropriate muscles & replenish glycogen stores
** **Exercise**: extensive practice of desired activities plu]]> Sat, 03 May 2008 20:56:20 +0000 add http://bodyoptimization.pbwiki.com/FrontPage email.hidden@example.com (Matthew Levine) Matthew Levine edited FrontPage ChallengingAssumptions

Panelists will share a broad variety of experiences, perspectives and methods from short term improvements to life extension techniques that you can compare and contrast.
