Workout 2 JUN 2010, Paleo/Primal Challenge Keys to Success

Whole 9 says hang in there: “Since you’ve cut out a lot of dense carb sources (like grains, legumes, and processed foods), and your body is very “adapted” to burning those “quick and dirty” carbs for energy, you are experiencing some of the effects of that drastic shift in macronutrient intake. As you continue into [weeks 2 and 3 of the Paleo Challenge] your body will get much better at utilizing (dietary and body) fat as fuel, and you’ll start to feel more energized. Literally, almost everyone experiences some performance drop (or energy slump) in the first few days or weeks of the Whole30 [a Paleo Challenge], but essentially EVERYONE that has stuck with it has seen improvements in all sorts of things, including their overall quality of life.”

sometimes it is easier to put out hard in the Daily WOD and collapse trembling and nauseous in a dark corner than it is to take the 2 minutes each meal to note your food intake
29 MAY 2010 (Rest Day) Paleo Snacks: Paleo Easy, Make-Ahead Paleo, and “Paleo in a Pinch”
Posted: May 29, 2010 by Ginger in Nutrition, Paleo ChallengeTags: Germany, low-carb, nutrition, paleo diet, paleo snacks, primal diet, protein
Some of the paleo snacks I provide below are just carb or just fat, soinsure you pair them with a protein! Protein and fat will keep you full for longer. A protein and carb combination is good post-workout, but keep the carbs low glycemic load if you are looking to lean out.

If you really want to understand the scientific ground on which Paleo/Primal eating was established, as well as why the diet works so well in addition to being extremely nutritious, I absolutely cannot stress the importance of listening to this interview enough, whether or not you are considering adopting primal eating habits or trying our Paleo Challenge. It might very well change your mind.
Workout 23 MAY 2010, Sticking to the Basics & Paleo Challenge Participation
Posted: May 23, 2010 by Ginger in Nutrition, Paleo ChallengeTags: CrossFit, Germany, non-processed food, nutrition, paleo challenge, paleo diet, power cleans, primal diet
Maybe sticking to the basics, eating real, nonprocessed food like meat, vegetables, and fruit — actually brings people real results. It isn’t a low calorie diet by any means. And we don’t regard fat as an enemy as long as it’s naturally occuring (we eat moderate amounts of coconut, avocado, nuts, and seeds, fat on our meat and cook with real butter and lard) from a source we trust. Eating primally not only reduces inflammation and glucose/insulin levels in the blood – major factors in diseases including many cancers, diabetes, and CHD, but it also increases energy levels, leans out body composition and optimizes strength performance.

Workout 18 MAY 2010, Paleo Challenge Invitation

So epidemiological evidence supporting your choice of optimal diet is at best still slightly nonconclusive and at worst horribly and radically conflicting, but the good news is, you don’t have to wait for researchers to sort it all out! Without further ado, I would like to introduce a way you can conclusively discover your body’s own optimal nutrition without having to take into account pesky things like reporting bias and sponsor disclosure — a 30 Day Trial.
