This video is making its way around the Crossfit interwebs, so I thought I would share:

Just a friendly reminder Thursday is the last day to bring things to the gym to donate to Bread for the City. Please keep the donations coming!
Wanted to second Mike’s recommendation from yesterday to watch the “Why We Get Fat” videos that are up on the Crossfit Journal. There is the full version or a shorter condensed version if you don’t want to watch an hour and a half of video. It’s really interesting.
Thanks Alissa for bumping my post to today. I strongly urge everyone to watch these videos. To me, they summarize nearly everything diet-related I’ve learned from our coaches and from my own investigation over the past couple of years.
Of particular note, the videos
—present an evidence-based case for a paleolithic diet, or, at the very least, cutting processed sugars and wheat/gluten completely from our diets;
—debunk the “calories in – calories out” philosophy that has led most people astray for decades;
—debunk the idea that running an extra mile or two, or counting your calories and activity level, will make you skinny;
—explain the phenomenon I refer to as “skinny fat” (skinny limbs, little muscle, and belly fat) that is so commonly seen in the cardio room at globo gyms; and
—explain how someone can have body fat less than 6% while eating 3,000 calories day.
This is real, useful info people! This is the basis for everything we do.
I second that! It was an excellent, informative video. Thanks, Mike.

Thanks for sharing, definitely informative and good to see some validation from a non-Paleo source of scientifically accurate ideas which unfortunately aren’t recognized by most health authorities. Along those lines- this is an interesting presentation from a doctor who recovered from MS by basing her diet on foods that provide the vitamins and nutrients she needs. Will sound pretty familiar… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLjgBLwH3Wc
