A Paleo feast with the fabulous Melicious
Today's post is dedicated to a fabulous friend of ours, and the best hostess in Austin - Melissa "Melicious" Joulwan. Melissa has been a client and a friend for almost a year now, and is both a nutritionally savvy blogger and a fabulous cook in her own right. She runs the blog The Clothes Make the Girl, ruminating on everything health, fitness and food related. If you haven't subscribed to her feed already, her blog is a must-read.

Read your labels
Day Five of our Whole30 program on the road, and things are going really well. We've driven through the Keys, up through Florida to the panhandle (where we had an awesome workshop co-hosted by Lightning CrossFit and CrossFit Fort Walton Beach), and then on through Alabama, Mississippi and now, Louisiana. [...]

The Whole30, Version 2.0
Last year, we proposed a squeaky clean eating program designed to “change your life in 30 days”. The response on the blog was overwhelming. Hundreds of people participated, following the “rules” inspired by the experience we had when we completed our own 30 day nutritional program. [...]

Whole9 US Tour: The Mid-Atlantic, plus Atlanta
On that note, Dallas and I mentioned on Robb’s podcast that we’ll be doing our own Road Trip Whole30 in May. First, we really need to spend some time 100% Eating Good Food ourselves – we’ve been having a little TOO much fun in the last month or two. In addition, we’re going to do this to dispel any and all future whining, complaining or excuses our clients and readers may have. [...]

The Paleo Pitch
One of our questions was submitted by Tim in Hawaii. Tim asked us to re-vamp our CrossFit Elevator Pitch, presenting a similar summary of the Paleo diet. Now, we may not be bio-chemists like Robb, and certainly couldn’t answer some of the more technical questions he takes on during his Podcasts, but the request for a Paleo Pitch was right up our alley. [...]

Post-Workshop Consultations
Sometimes, our best ideas come from our readers. Last month, we received an email from Anne, currently in school in Texas. Anne wrote, “Are there are any other packages or services you offer thatare in between the consultation and the workshop (like a two week consultation or a 30 min phone call you can add on to the price of a workshop)?” [...]

Unplug, then plug it back in
Often in our own health and fitness pursuits, we forget that practicing "the basics" are what got us this far. Our air squat drills earned us an overhead squat PR, our dead hang pull-up strength bought us our muscle-up, and eating a clean diet full of foods that make us healthy gave us the energy, body composition and performance gains we've been so happy with. [...]

Repost: The Carrot Train to Crazytown
It reminded me of my now-infamous Carrot Confrontation. I was participating in a discussion on a message board when someone asked what I eat in a typical day. I replied with a list of things I had eaten that morning - chicken, radishes, egg whites, spinach, olives... and carrots. I mentioned I had eaten almost an entire bag of baby carrots. At which point, another poster responded, "You should be careful about eating so many carrots. Carrots are pretty high in sugar." [...]

Be the 17th listener
We’re still on vacation on the Left Coast, but took a break from our nutrition workshop and training with Coach B to jump online to make a fun and exciting announcement! The familiar refrain of “Robb Wolf, Andy Deas” will soon include a special addition… “And Whole9″. Yes, Dallas and I will be making a [...]
