A friend came across this 1948 Olympic team (Irish rowing eight) training program. In sum it says:
- eat three meals per day with lots of veg
- avoid junk food snacks
- do exercise
- don’t smoke
- don’t drink (other than a pint per day)
(He also says to eat a lot at meals, but that is because they were training for the Olympics.)
Has 7 decades of diet and exercise advice taken us forward?
