    Here is my quick input on the video.  The most important thing is being happy; fat, skinny, strong, weak…happiness is the goal.  Holley is happy, an excellent athlete and as an athlete I understand the desire to win first and think about your long-term health second…I am a competitive CrossFitter and lifetime athlete, maybe not as accomplished as Holley.  However, the lifestyle choices that created Holley’s current body composition are associated with many health issues, all of which come with huge amounts of pain and suffering…heart attack, stroke, arthritis, Alzheimer, diabetes.  Happiness is most important and if you want a lifetime of it, you also need to eat a healthy diet that supports relatively low levels of body fat, after she wins the goal : )

      I second your remarks on health and I am sure Holly is aware of all the long term health risks she is putting her body in.

      Like everything in life it is a question of how much you want it. 

      Thanks for the thoughtful comment Dan.
