I loved climbing because of the freedom, and having time and space. I remember coming off Everest for the last time, thinking of Dad and wishing that he could have seen what I saw. He would have loved it. – Bear Grylls
As for my diet, I try to eat lean, clean and healthy – nothing too surprising. And I avoid too much meat or dairy because they slow you down. – Bear Grylls
One killer exercise thats really great is pull-ups with your legs out level. Thats my favourite. Its such functional core strength, and thats why I can climb up trees and down vines. – Bear Grylls
When Im filming, survival requires movement. You need your energy, and youve got to eat the bad stuff, and survival food is rarely pretty, but you kind of do it. I get in that zone, and I eat the nasty stuff, but Im not like that when Im back home. – Bear Grylls
