In January, Men’s Journal had a terrific article about fitness by Daniel Duane. The gist of it is that you should pass on the treadmill and elliptical and lift heavy. If this is news to you, go read it. On the heels of that, they published a real stinker in February. It starts [...] It really drives me nuts when elite food writers complain about the McDonald’s Menu or, really, complain about McDonald’s at all. First of all, they don’t eat there and take pride in that fact. Second, McDonald’s menu and marketing is not aimed at them, so complaining that the menu isn’t what they want is utterly [...] At present, my blogging has been very thin because I’ve got a lot of other things going on. Sadly, these things are not paid work, but the primary distraction from keeping up my blog has been studying for a personal trainer certification. I already have a Level-1 CrossFit certification, but liability insurance companies do not [...] Don Matesz has a gem of a post discussing Steve Pavlina’s raw vegan diet experiment(s). Pavlina, like Seth Roberts and Tim Ferris, does a lot of self-experimentation and then blogs about it. I do like much of what all three of them write. Pavlina’s post “How to Become an Early Riser” is [...] After years of long study of nutrition and diet, I seem to be coming around to the idea that you can either have carbs or fat along with your protein, but not both. When I saw that this appeared to be Zoe Harcombe’s thing, I bought her book right away. I think there’s a lot [...] In general, I think the online Paleo community is too hard on The New Evolution Diet. I experienced bafflement at a few things, and they are all on this list at Melissa McEwen’s site. In particular, throwing out egg yolks is, I think, ludicrous. Choline is a critical nutrient, and it’s all [...] I’ve tried various foods in isolation over the last six months and have found out that some of them really need to stay OUT of my diet. Note that some of them *are* paleo-approved: gluten (knew that before I tried paleo) I’m going to start out plugging this blog entry at Tribe of Five, because it echoes a lot of my feelings on this subject. I’m not willing to carry the paleo placard in lieu of common sense. No, we don’t eat grains, legumes, or sugar. Yes, we eat plenty of grass fed meats, saturated fats, and [...] I read a number of blogs from Paleo eaters, and while I enjoy them, I’ve been seeing a lot more…excuses lately. These so-called excuses are almost always about non-paleo recipe ingredients. Part of the problem is that every day paleo mostly consists of meat and veg and maybe some fruit for dessert or some nuts [...] I have to say that “The Bear Complex” sounds like something a gay male friend would say he has. Come on, I know at least one of you thought that when you saw the title! It is actually a sequence of five lifts [video link of a woman doing a demo]: Power Clean |
