I first ran across Michelle James on Strong is the New Skinny on Facebook. Michelle has a great story and is a great inspiration no matter what your sport or goals. She pretty much says it all here, so I’ll just get right to Michelle and let her do the talking…  -Adam Here’s Michelle James [...]

  Last year – 2011 – was the first year for both The Beast of the East Fitness Festival and The IKFF East Coast Kettlebell Beast. The Beast of the East drew 200 athletes from all over for CrossFit, Weightlifting and other events. The Kettlebell Beast had a great turnout of 16 athletes competing in [...]

The SINS Angel post for today is a slightly different spin on the series. It’s still about a strong woman, but with a twist – this strong woman is also professional photographer who has a cool project in the works. Nikki Rinaldi is not only passionate about being strong, she’s passionate about photographing strong women. [...]

I’ve known Kristin for a while now – on Facebook anyway! She’s been doing a lot in the Paleo community and there’s even a pic of her and her sister with Mark Sisson in Mark’s new book. One thing I wanted to mention – something you guys hear from me all the time and something [...]

Today is a big day for the SINS Angels Series. This is the VERY FIRST ONE! The plan is to feature a female blogger who is living the SINS ideal, blogging regularly and helping to spread the word that Strong is the New Skinny (SINS). It’s all about leading by example! So, the first SINS [...]

This is just a quick blog post to let everyone know that I still have a few hard copies of “The Paleo Dieter’s Missing Link” left from The 2011 Beast of the East Fitness Festival. They’re really nice books with a new cover that incorporates my new logo for Practical Paleolithic. They have a clear [...]

  Fitness Culture is Alive and Well in Connecticut… Wow! What a weekend! Honestly, I’m still recovering from The Beast of the East Fitness Festival that happened October 8 and 9th, 2011 on the Durham Fair Grounds in Durham, CT! It was a GREAT time! Besides all the CrossFit craziness at The Beast, it was [...]

  Here’s a question from Raphael in Australia: “Hey Adam, Just came across your website (saw a link on the IKFF Facebook page). Some great articles to read – and just finished going through your ebook! Paul Chek’s book got me quite interested in general health. Then onto Mark’s Daily Apple, and other paleo resources. [...]
