Please bear in mind, though, that this man has written quite literally hundreds of articles and this top 10 represents only my take on what is a remarkable literary opus.  Here is just a taster:

***

1. Synaptic facilitation (greasing the groove): read how Clarence learned how to do more pull ups plus some nice anecdotes about the Bulgarian weightlifting team.  A winning combination in my book.
2. Pavel’s ladder: read how Clarence learned to maximise training time and still take advantage of synaptic facilitation (greasing the groove) to do more pull ups.
3. Biomarkers: Clarence reviews “Biomarkers”, a book that he sees as passing the test of time.  The book identified ten signs or biomarkers that dictate how old you feel.  They are (1) Muscle Mass, (2) Strength, (3) Basal Metabolic Rate, (4) Body Fat Percentage, (5) Aerobic Capacity, (6) Blood-sugar Tolerance, (7) Cholesterol/HDL Ratio, (8) Blood Pressure, (9) Bone density, (10) Ability to regulate Internal Temperature.  Significantly, all 10 biomarkers can be revived or improved through strength training.  But it is the first biomarker, muscle mass, that is responsible for the vitality of your whole physiological apparatus. So strength training is pivotal if you want to stay young longer.
4. Sitting: Clarence reviews a study that correlates increased sitting time with higher mortality rates.  It’s interesting that even regularly weekly exercise doesn’t help to reduce the risk of earlier death caused by sitting.  Only moving around regularly seems to help.
5. Go hard and go home: Clarence explains why and how he does intervals.  I found a lot in common with Clarence as he described his method of cycling his intervals downwards in length over a period of weeks (1,000m down to 500m down to 250m), how he prefers intensity over volume and how he prefers slightly longer rest periods than work periods.
6. Sleep: as you might have gathered from the above article about biomarkers, Clarence is a guru in how to avoid ageing as you get older.  This fascinating article about his experience in his sleep patterns changing as he gets older is well worth a look.
7. The Metabolism Myth: Clarence explains that there is no reason that you should get fatter as you get older unless your muscle mass is decreasing.  If your muscle mass is decreasing, then you better get strength training.
8. John Grimek: Clarence takes a moment to pen an appreciation of one who was probably the most revered bodybuilder of all-time (to those in the know).  According to Bass, Grimek was so far ahead of other bodybuilders that the rules had to be changed after he won the Mr. America title in 1940 and 1941 to prevent him from dominating the competition for years to come.  As well as being the only two-time Mr. America, he was a national champion and member of the US Olympic weightlifting team in Berlin (1936).
9. Floyd Landis: Clarence explains some of the drug-related background to what may have been the most remarkable dethroning of a champion in modern sport since Ben Johnson was stripped of his gold medal at the 1988 Olympics.  Clarence explains why testosterone wasn’t really a very useful drug to have taken, as its activity is to produce an effect over a long period of time.  I always had a lot of sympathy for Landis and, having read this article, I have even more.
10. Norbert Schemansky: Clarence sets out to review a book he is sent entitled “Mr Weightlifting” about the great Norbert Schemansky and ends up recounting half the book from memory.
