Manipulate your diet until you find something that works for you. And I think people get bogged down with trying to go to the gym and doing too much cardio and lifting too much weight.

There's more and more guys getting into yoga these days, and I find that helps me as well.

For any sport to be sustainable, it cannot survive on government or corporate grants alone.
