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 [...]
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.

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 [...]

There should be an online version soon as well! The article deals with women’s stereotypes and changes brought about by CrossFit-style training, Paleo diet ideas and, [...]
I’ve been thinking a lot about my body and health goals lately. I’ve also been reading Dan John’s excellent book, “Don’t Let Go.” I’m not sure how it all came together for me, but I started thinking about smaller goals. If you’ve read any kind of self-help/goal setting stuff – like the Anthony Robbins program [...]
This is actually my FIRST update for the SINS challenge. Where have I been? I’ve been hard at work on goal number one from my original post – Finishing my Paleo Diet book. My original goal was to finish the book and launch it on the second Sunday of March 2011. I missed that deadline, [...]
