I Am A Believer In Nutrient Timing

If It Wasn't For My Sport And My Father, I'd Probably Be A Fallen Statistic. I'd Be Dead; I'd Be In Jail. Luckily, I Had A Great Dad In My Life.

The Older I Get, The More And More I Notice I'm Like My Father. It's Funny, Because When I Was Younger I Tried To Just Back Away From My Father As Much As I Could, And Some Of The Philosophies, Some Of The Life Lessons, Some Of The Beliefs That He Had Within Me Are Always Constantly Ongoing, And They're Always Prevalent In My Life, Whether It's Trying To Be Every Single Thing That I Can Be In My Sport Or Life Or Relationship Or Business, Whatever Avenue I'm Pursuing.

My Father Is 100% Japanese And Came To The United States When He Was Only 18 Years Old. My Grandmother Still Resides In Japan, Which Has Allowed Me To Travel To The Roots Of My Ancestors With My Father.

Generally, Speed Skaters Don't Run That Much. I'm A Little Bit Of An Exception In That I Run A Lot.

With Speed Skating, It's Like Doing One-legged Squats Over And Over Again, With That One Leg Absorbing More Than 80 Percent Of Your Weight. It Takes An Enormous Amount Of Strength, And You're In Such A Weird Position.
