”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 [...]

Check it out: PaleoFX Austin Partners, a leading organization dedicated to educating fitness, nutrition, healthcare professionals and laypersons on practical applications of ancestral lifestyle theory, is proud to [...]
All are lunatics, but he who can analyse his delusions is called a philosopher – Ambrose Bierce First, a little prospective… My Efficient Exercise clientele, widely speaking, consists of folks situated smack-dab in the bullseye for being the most susceptible to “diseases of affluence” — those maladies exacerbated (and, arguably, initially brought-on) by poor dietary choices and lack of proper [...]
Deal with the Devil if the Devil has a constituency – and don’t complain about the heat – C. J. Cherryh Not complaining, just sayin’, you know; 106-degrees F at the time I performed this little sprint routine, on the way to the day’s high of 111. No telling how friggin’ hot it was out [...]
I wasted time, and now doth time waste me. William Shakespeare Continuing with the Health vs Performance curve theme from last time out, we see that the weekly time investment requirement, relative to increased performance, increases exponentially. I know, I know — big shocker, right? But somehow, this basic tenant becomes…I don’t know…watered down? — [...]
The Red Wheelbarrow, William Carlos Williams so much depends upon a red wheel barrow glazed with rain water beside the white chickens. So I’m hit with the “what do I eat prior to working out” question frequently in my training practice, and I think my clients are a bit taken back by the complexity required [...]
…Vegetarians, and their Hezbollah-like splinter-faction, the vegans, are a persistent irritant to any chef worth a damn. To me, life without veal stock, pork fat, sausage, organ meat, demi-glace, or even stinky cheese is a life not worth living. Vegetarians are the enemy of everything good and decent in the human spirit, an affront [...]
“…Can’t we at least give one another the benefit of the doubt? I can be somewhat patient with people who think they have the truth, the problem is those who think they have the whole truth. It seems to me that too quickly categorizing others as wrong or mistaken is consummate arrogance and is not honoring [...]
“The idea is to try to give all the information to help others to judge the value of your contribution; not just the information that leads to judgment in one particular direction or another” – Richard Feynman So when we put all of our eggs in one basket — say, judging a particular question solely [...]
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. In other words, there’s a profound difference between melding the [...]
