So it’s Tuesday morning and while Paleo FX officially ended at 6:30pm on Friday March 16th, from my perspective from the hundreds of comments, messages, phone calls, texts, Tweets and posts — Paleo FX was a smashing success — however, the business of it is far from done. The questions of ‘were we insane to [...]
“I have long believed that good food, good eating is all about risk. Whether we’re talking about unpasteurized Stilton, raw oysters or working for organized crime ‘associates,’ food, for me, has always been an adventure.” —– Anthony Bourdain A funny thing happened on the way to our new website…somewhere in the transfer process, we had [...]

Convictions are more dangerous enemies of truth than lies – Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche Paul Jaminet, in his recent post My Theory of Obesity I: “The Fat Trap”, inches ever closer to uncovering the scientific whys behind what Physical Culturalists have long known as truth — that lean tissue acquisition/optimization via smartly programmed resistance training is absolutely essential for optimum and [...]

“Science may set limits to knowledge, but should not set limits to imagination.” - Bertrand Russell Yeah, the “Bowflex Killer” — that’s what Anthony Johnson, architect and founder of the 21 Convention, has dubbed the ARX Fit Omni.

I know, I know — big shocker, right? But somehow, this basic tenant becomes…I don’t know…watered down? — [...]![]()

One idea that I have been very pleased to see begin trickling out of the Paleo/Evolutionary Fitness/Ancestral Fitness community as of late is the notion of Paleo (writ large) as being a framework of ideas and technologies vs being some sort of paleolithic re-enactment movement.
