Arrived into work to find the recently ordered Paleo Diet for Athletes, written by Cordain & Friel on my desk. Looks pretty interest covering the paleo concept and how to incorporate it before, during and after exercise and has a recipe section with around 80 paleo recipes Anyone who wants a read when I am finished just ask me at a class or on the blog here. Can’t wait to sink my teeth into it.
I’d love a read of it when ur done!!
Pat,
Paleo Diet for Athletes by Cordain & Friel – In a nutshell- Eat a paleo diet – when you want to “cheat” eat sweet potatoes after your workouts.
I found it heavy enough reading
They reckon eating sweet potatoes is cheating?! Hell, that’s what helped me get through the last 30 days!
Today’s WOD looks savage, can’t wait. See you later!
i have a copy that you can have now james if ya want.
it’s REALLY geared toward endurance athletes, runners and triathlon etc.
can’t wait for the Robb Wolf book
