Kettlebell Training and The Paleo Diet

Posted by Adam on August 30, 2010 at 6:26 pm

I’ve been working with some form of a Paleo or Paleolithic diet for over 6 years now. I’ve written a lot about the diet and I’ve even summed up the basics in a Paleo Primer and my Free eBook download. I’ve also been part of the Kettlebell community since 2007 and the CrossFit community since [...]

A Mind for the Paleo Diet

Posted by Adam on August 6, 2010 at 10:13 am

Guest Post by Travis Schefcik of UncommonWellness.com When people think about starting a new diet, most fast forward six months in their minds and imagine themselves in a thin new body. It’s usually this mental picture which sets in motion the goals they set for themselves; to lose body fat and look good naked. Fat [...]

How much is HEALTH and PASSION really worth to you?

Posted by Adam on July 23, 2010 at 6:48 pm

WARNING – This will probably be a weird and rambling post. In some wacky way, though, it’s probably the most important training related post I’ve ever written… IMPORTANT – WATCH THE VIDEO FIRST AND THEN READ THE POST!!!!! Just what exactly is your health worth to you? It’s worth a whole lot to me. At [...]

Raw Milk Kefir and the Paleo Diet

Posted by Adam on July 13, 2010 at 10:39 am

I’ve played around with raw cow milk and kefir before and I’ve been using goat yogurt and kefir for a while. I’ve REALLY wanted to switch to raw cow kefir though. I’ve wanted to make the switch not so much because I think cow milk is better than goat milk – I’m not so sure [...]

Are we Paleo Dieters CRAZY or smarter than all of ‘em?

Posted by Adam on July 5, 2010 at 5:58 pm

I was reading Mark Sisson’s Weekend Link Love post this morning. Mark always has good stuff in these posts. I was intrigued and frustrated at the same time with one of the articles he put in a link for. The article was about an eating “disorder” called “orthorexia nervosa.” The article title was “Healthy food [...]

Overtraining and Adrenal Fatigue

Posted by Adam on July 1, 2010 at 1:12 pm

There’s no shortage of writing on overtraining as it relates to weight training, bodybuilding and even newer pursuits like CrossFit and kettlebells. Anyone who has spent time training hard in any form of athletics is going to be aware of overtraining and likely the symptoms of overtraining. Currently, there’s a lot of talk about “Adrenal [...]

What is a “Caveman Diet” Anyway?

Posted by Adam on July 1, 2010 at 12:09 am

These are the questions that come to me at odd times. I was about to get into the shower when, out of nowhere, I had the thought: “Does the term ‘Caveman Diet’ really have any value or meaning? I’ve been guilty of using the term myself a few times. When you’re talking to someone who [...]

Sun, Fun and CrossFit

Posted by Adam on June 23, 2010 at 9:01 pm

I don’t know if it was a coincidence or what, but I happened to read some really good stuff on Mark Sisson’s blog, Mark’s Daily Apple, last night. The two blog posts I really got into were a primer on how to increase testosterone naturally and another on vitamin D, sun exposure and dosage. The [...]

My Own Personal Paleo Challenge

Posted by Adam on June 20, 2010 at 5:19 pm

I’ve been thinking for a while now that it’s time for me to put up or shut up with the training and Paleo diet. With that in mind, I’m starting my own Paleo Diet Challenge and making it fully public here on my new blog. My plan is to use the positive pressure of blogging [...]
