“People assume that you need to run fast to get to optimum fitness, but...” — Greg Rutherford Quote

People assume that you need to run fast to get to optimum fitness, but the truth is endurance lifting makes you stronger and leaner.

My grandfather died before I was born, so I never had the chance to speak with him about his father. But I learned about him from books.

I am pleased I went from fourth back into a medal position, but bronze is not good enough for me.

Ultimately, you've got to answer your critics on the track, and I am very much hoping 8.41m is acceptable for people.

Ultimately, I'm enjoying what I'm doing.

Fitness starts at home. What you eat is what you will look, just as what you sow is what you reap. Eat good food: eat fruits, vegetables, healthy grains, and don't go for sweet and trite food.

Every day, I get up to hit the gym; the schedule is such that it gives me the requisite energy to last the entire day. I stress on cardiovascular exercises, and the workout is programmed with my sporting schedule. Most of the fitness schedule is based on what I require for my upcoming matches.

The public character of every public servant is legitimate subject of discussion, and his fitness or unfitness for office may be fairly canvassed by any person.

You learn that later on in life - it's not about how much you can lift or how fast you can run. It has a lot to do with your mental fitness, emotional balance, spiritual awareness.
