My Two Favorite Parts of Tom Brady's TB12 Method

Originally posted on January 17, 2018.

Tom Brady is working on living as long as he can. Here are two pieces of his TB12 Method with which I heartily agree.

You need to focus on getting enough electrolytes in your diet, and
consider replacing free weights with resistance bands.

Jason Gay, reporting for The Wall Street Journal, writes:

Brady says he wants to play at least until age 45, and there is no reason to doubt his determination. He is defying age so well, he wrote a bible (“The TB12 Method”) about defying age. Besides, have you seen the quarterback play in the NFL? Brady asleep in a beanbag chair is better than 90% of the quarterbacks in the league.

Not that Brady would ever sleep in a beanbag chair. He would be stretching. And drinking electrolytes. He’d be avoiding poisons like soda and candy bars. If you open a candy bar within two miles of Brady, black helicopters descend, and you get dropped in a chocolate river alongside Augustus Gloop.
