 ”Only a life lived for others is worth living.” – Albert Einstein   As of the time I started writing this post, we were a little over 2 weeks post-PaleoFX , so I realized it was time to start writing again and getting back to the work at hand. My thoughts drift when I begin [...]

“All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them.” – Galileo I’m a Christian, I believe in Creationism and yet, I know that Evolution is an absolute fact.  I know this well because I trust and believe in the science but also because my daughter Brittani, a Worship [...]

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 [...]

I have a good collection of cookery books. This is not so much because I like cooking, but because I like eating. — Louise Brown   There’s this little thing I’m involved in that’s going on in March, here in Austin some of you may have heard about called Paleo FX — Ooh…I think I [...]

Twitterworld  & Facebook were all abuzz Tuesday, November 15th as the roll out for the inaugural event for Paleo f(x): Ancestral Momentum – Theory to Practice Symposium hit social media via one of the event’s key note speakers, none other than Robb Wolf. Keith and I are thrilled to be 2 of the founding members [...]

So here are the greens from the beets that I made on Wednesday night, making an appearance alongside Thursday night’s totally awesome, locally/pasture-raised cut of smoked pork.  Damn fine eats, I gotta say.  The greens were sautéed with onions in a liberal amount of coconut oil, then splashed with a bit of coconut vinegar, salt [...]

OK, so I’m much more creative in the gym than in the kitchen, but I don’t exactly starve, either.  Most times I don’t plan my meals so much as I throw them together at the last minute; maintaining a strict Paleo household saves me from doing something (eating something) stupid.  I guess my point with [...]

No more than a single iron skillet and a few minutes of prep time for these two.  Grass-fed eye of chuck, butternut squash and cauliflower mix, free-range pork sausage, roasted free-range chicken quarters and a little sweet potato.  Good meals, and plenty of leftovers to boot. By the way, you’ll notice that there’s very little [...]

No Dip Session is the Same… …Or, for that matter, is any selected movement within an exercise session ever the same; there are just way too many variables at play — and that, in and of itself, is a good thing, serving to keep the trainee from becoming both mentally and physically stagnant.  It does, [...]

The Paleo diet is such a sacrifice, right?  I mean, damn, what’s there to eat?  Well, here’s yet another meal I had to suffer through — some pay-off for spending a tough hour of intervals in the fixie saddle yesterday evening, huh? That’s bacon and avocado on the side.  In the free-range egg scramble are [...]

Here’s the deal: if you fail to rotate through a number of different exercise variations, and choose, instead, to continually hammer-away at a few specific exercises — the bench, squat and deadlift are, to a great detriment, rarely rotated out of a “serious” trainee’s program — you will eventually stagnate, regress and/or tumble into an [...]

NPR covered an interesting story yesterday in relation to the Institute of Medicine‘s recommendation that the FDA seek some form of governmental regulation in regard to the salt content of processed foods.  From the NPR site: “The Institute of Medicine issued a report Tuesday on reducing salt intake. They are recommending that Americans reduce their [...]

I’ve often been asked, in various forms and fashions, why I don’t bother with tracking my insulin response to various consumption and/or activity inputs and events.  My response has always been, “what’s the point?”  The fact of the matter is that insulin will increase even following a strict Paleo meal — hell, insulin will increase [...]

Cranked-out about an hour’s worth of mixed-intensity fixie riding yesterday evening (rode for a half-hour or so, hung-out at the coffee shop for a while, then hit another half-hour or so on the way home), just to keep the legs loose.  I’d put a tri-tip roast, celerity, and carrots into the crock pot prior to [...]
