And yesterday, we received a comment from Susan that hit home - and spoke to one of the most important reasons why we created and continue to promote the Whole30 program as a way to "change your life in 30 days". The comment is as follows: [...]

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.

Explore Your Neighborhood: The Frontier
We're on the road a lot, and while we still "make" about half our meals while traveling (either packing a cooler or picking up food at the local Whole-Foods style market), we do dine out quite a bit. Unfortunately, most restaurants offer a serious set of challenges in our quest to Eat Good Food. [...]

We have amazing, fantastic, big-time news - some frexciting changes are taking place here at Whole9. What's the word? After months of planning, Dallas and I have both decided to leave our 9-5 day jobs, so we can take the Whole9 full time. [...]

Happy Birthday, Captain Tom
We call my Dad “Captain Tom” as a nod to the fact that he is an accredited Coast Guard Captain, and a retired fishing bum in the Florida Keys. Saturday is my Dad’s birthday, and I wanted to use the occasion to share his story with our readers. (Translation: Today, I get to brag about my Dad.) [...]

Conversations with a vegetarian

If you’ve been reading our articles or have done your own Whole30 program, you know exactly why we believe grains, dairy and legumes make you less healthy. [...]
