Published on April 21, 2012 By Adam

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 [...]

Published on February 11, 2012 By Adam

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 [...]

Once every week or so, Practical Paleolithic is going to feature ONE OF YOU! I’m calling the new series “SINS Angels” and the goal is to feature a female blogger who embodies the SINS ideal.

It Probably Doesn’t Mean What You Think It Does…

Published on June 19, 2011 By Adam

I’m on another emotional and spiritual growth spurt. I HATE these! I mean, I love them, but I hate them too. It’s great to grow and evolve – constant growth and evolution is really a foundational principle of my life. But, sometimes it would just be nice to coast for a while and enjoy the [...]

Sometimes Life Hands You a Triangle Choke…

Published on June 3, 2011 By Adam

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a fascinating art. The picture above is me getting triangle choked by UFC fighter Jason Lambert at a seminar this past Memorial Day Weekend. There’s a lot of strategy involved in the higher levels of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) and the really good guys – like Jason or my teacher Chris [...]

My friend Joan Jennings wrote this great article about the Strong is the New Skinny movement for her Journalism class. A really well done article and worth a read!

SINS Challenge Update – Setting Smaller Goals…

Published on April 12, 2011 By Adam

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 [...]

Practical Paleolithic’s Top 3 Posts of All Time…

Published on April 6, 2011 By Adam

I guess this is the blog equivalent of those sitcoms where the writers run out of ideas and have someone get hit on the head or whatever so they can do a “flashbacks” episode. It’s not so much that I “ran out” of ideas, it’s more that I’m a little fried from all the writing [...]
