The author had clearly expected a some serious fitness tests--how far you could run, how much could you lift? The guru, though, had a rather playful idea of what was involved in being really fit. I've forgotten most of the questions, but one has stuck with me: (for two points) Did you prepare a meal today, and if so, did you do it with respect?
