Ahh, the summer time. No longer do I have to go to school every day! I can sleep as long as I want and the only source of stress is a busy day at work.
So I'm not really worried about who sees my face right now basically. I don't mind people looking at me in public much, and on a day to day basis the main people I see are my family and friends and they never give me shit about having bad skin cuz they're the best
I've got a new idea for an experiment. The point is to see how much a role other factors besides diet play a role in my skin.
Here's the premises:
1) Walk, bike or skate EVERYWHERE. No public transportation and no cars. The point is to average atleast a couple hours of strenuous exercise a day. The exception to this rule would be if I'm leaving town.
Someone replied that more than an hour of exercise may be too much
I will just say to listen to your body, do what you feel like doing but don't exceed it if you don't feel too well
I don't really know how much I exercise because except for studying I live for sport: swimming, runnning, biking, sprinting, surfing, lifting weights, archery, tennis, basketball, volley ball, skating and soccer ... and I think I probably spend more than three hours daily on these activities and well I don't think it makes sense that it could be harmful because we have a body because we're supposed to use, before we became sick and weak and covered up with thick clothes and avoided the sun and lived in close apartments and stopped breathing lot of oxygen ... we lived to be outside and use our body!

2) 8 hours of sleep a night.
3) Plenty of sun exposure for the benefits of the sun - hormone balancing, vitamin D and happiness
I'm glad is mentioning this finally ... bravo! Have you read my controversial post on red mark forum, how much sun is safe thread?
But don't expose to the sun suddenly even if you use sunscreen. Unlike people beliefs there aren't any scientific proof that a tan implies skin damage has already occurred, actually the scientific proofs say that a tan effectively contrast the effects of the sun and it's the natural smart skin protection.
The best way to develop a protective sun is to expose yourself to the sun gradually, beginning with just 5 minutes, then 10 minutes, then 15. Get plenty of sun exposure only when your body will increase the production of melanin protectin you from the sun

4) Diet - eat whatever I feel for the most part, whether it's foods I'm usually sensitive to like chocolate, wheat, dairy, or the regular healthy foods that keep me thriving like legumes, all fruits and all vegetables. Meats are allowed as well. The exception to this rule is no fast food and trans fats allowed.
Since you crave healthy nourishing foods anyway, why don't you keep a specific hour of the day for your junk foods? Like for example having a serving of junk sugary stuff everyday always at the same time. This way you will keep having a diet which is 80/90% super healthy and that 10% won't make a difference except for your pleasure but also you will better control which factor may improve or worsen your general health not just your skin one and you may also better detect foods your might be intolerant to

5) Continue my supplement regimen - MSM, probiotics, spirulina powder, L-Glutamine and white tea.
If I break out absolutely horribly in the first few days of this I'll stop but so far so good. The main point of this is to see how much exercise can be used as a preventative. Any thoughts?
great plan, be consistent and gokod luck !!
