Carlos brought some great fruit that grows naturally

Check out this cool little blog from the
world famous Kelly Starrett of San Francisco CrossFit.

I was asked recently by a non-crossfitting friend (yes, they exist in theory) what I thought were the reasons for Crossfit's popularity and success. My response was immediate. I said, "Because, it's not a gimmick. Front-Squatting and Running isn't a gimmick."

And it's not. Marrying together Olympic sports is a hard stinking workout, and...READ MORE

Fight Gone Friday

Foo

From Balboa CrossFit:

Exert from interview with Dr. Jonny Bowden...

Q: I was in the organic store the other day and they were trumpeting how ground beef in the grocery store usually has the DNA of 1,000 different cows in it, while farm-raised organic stuff is often from one cow. Should I care?

A: You should care very much, but probably for slightly different reasons.

Ground beef in the grocery store inevitably comes from what we call "feedlot farms." These places are basically factories, and they bear as much resemblance to the old country farms of our childhood as a cheap Casio keyboard does to a handmade Steinway grand piano.

Cows on these "farms" are production machines for meat and milk. They're fed grain, which isn't their natural diet, and which causes great acidity in their systems. This produces "meat product" that's very high in inflammatory omega-6's and woefully lacking in omega-3's. Read More





Crossfit in 100 Words

Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow.Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports.

-Coach Greg Glassman
Founder of CrossFit


WOD

In this workout you move from each of five stations after a minute. This is a five-minute round from which a one-minute break is allowed before repeating. We've used this in 3 and 5 round versions. The stations are:

Air Squats
Pull ups
Walking Lunges (knee should "kiss" the ground)
Push ups
Double unders

The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. On call of "rotate," the athlete/s must move to next station immediately for good score. One point is given for each rep.

Technical Movements










Kendel displays how the overhead Squat can make you very strong by forcing you to tense literally every muscle and system in your body.



What's the deal with beans, peanuts and soy? I thought they were paleo!

Lectins and gluten (the bad stuff in grains) are both types of protein and can be categorised in the same family. However each has its own dangers.

It’s important to know that lectins (which are also found in legumes, peanuts and soy beans) are resistant to cooking and our digestive enzymes, so it’s a hard task to try and stop them from doing their nasty work in the body. Lectins have been linked to inflammatory problems as well as digestive diseases; leaky gut syndrome becoming one of the larger problems in society at the moment, which is then linked to autoimmune diseases (in which the body attacks itself). The reason lectins have such an intense effect on our digestive system and cause leaky gut syndrome is because lectins dramatically damage the gut defenses (as well as going on beyond the gut to damage joints and our skin complexion) called microvilli which line the small intestine and help to digest and transport food particles into the blood stream and the lymph system. When leaky gut syndrome has set in, the damage done to the microvilli has become excessive and has made the absorption of fats, vitamins and minerals extremely hard to digest. (Educate yourself a little More.)

1tsp salt
1 /3 cup almond meal

25g tomato paste
2tbs sage
1 sweet potato, medium
Olive oil

Instructions
Pre-heat fan-forced oven to 180 degrees Celsius.

Place a small handful of sweet potato ribbons in frying pan and fry for 2-3 minutes, or until slightly browned. Remove from frying pan and place on a plate lined with paper towel to drain.
Repeat with remaining sweet potato.
To serve, place sweet potato ribbons on a plate and top with meatballs.

Kids Foods Deemed Unhealthy....No Way?!

Can you sense the sarcasm?Ask anyone to remember their child years and most will have a song or slogan or cartoon character they can relate to a food item. These advertisements are plastered all over kids TV networks, ads, and packages to simply attract the kids. Add in a toy and they are like wet sauerkraut in the major company's hands.


A recent article on philly.com spoke of an analysis of 367 kids products of which 90% were deemed unhealthy. Shocking right? Well, the bigger news is that this study excluded candy and soft drinks. So the 90% was for the everyday foods that parents willingly buy their kids and pack in their lunches.


These sugar, fat, and salt rich foods are destroying America's youth and causing a multitude of the problems that are seen today. I'm sure the study didn't even touch on artificial colors or flavors.

Even more disturbing is that 62% of these foods had some sort of nutritional claim. The article gives examples such as "made with real fruit juice" or "no artificial flavors". In my experience, the more a food has to claim its nutritional benefit, the worse it is. Imagine that person who tries to convince you they are smart by all the knowledge they know. That person either isn't smart, or is an a-hole.


So how can you teach your child to eat healthier? The simplest way is to set the proper example. Your child will eat what you eat. You can find some great cracker alternatives at whole foods. Our favorites are the Nut-Thins made by Blue Diamond. They come in almond, hazelnut, and pecan. I've attached a picture to help you find them.


You can also give your child fruits and veggies to bring to school. Baby carrots pack easily and taste good. If they won't eat them, give some cashew butter to dip them in. Spread some almond butter on some celery sticks. There are ways to get veggies into the diet. Pack some grapes or other fruits that taste good and travel well.


The key still is to set the example. Make time for food. If you snack on unhealthy foods, your child will too. Show that food isn't simply a necessity, but rather a way of living. Be creative and eat healthy. Your body and future teen will thank you.

Dining Out...Its so easy a Caveman could do it.

Paleo Challenge Before/After Photo Contestants from Matt Chan on Vimeo.



Paleo cooking isn't just for you your kitchen. Dining out and remaining healthy should come as second nature. After all, This is your health we are talking about! Almost all restaurants have quality sources of protein (beef, chicken, pork) and a selection of fruit or vegetables. Understand that you don't have to stick to the salad menu (but if you do stay clear of the dressing.) If you order a chicken plate which offers mixed veggies and a baked potato ask the waiter for double veggies in place of the potato. Spice up any meal by requesting a side of salsa, pico, or avocados.

Here is one athletes take on the Caveman Nancy Challenge thus far...

I am actually feeling very good and very proud of myself. I truly wondered if I could do it, I am the candy queen! I had trouble with my energy level at first, but by the second week felt better. I am not going hungry nor am I having those bloated feelings. I leave the table feeling like I ate just enough. If I do get hungry between meals, I have some nuts or grapes. I miss my Starbuck's mochas more than anything, however I have a feeling when I am allowed to have one again, I won't like them anymore. I am betting they will taste too sweet.(Did I just say that?!) I need to start trying some different recipes to add variety for sure. We have just been busy and it's too hot to cook, so I need to work on that. I have lost 3 or 4 pounds(pounds I had put back on by reverting to old habits) and overalll, I am very glad I did this. Thanks for helping me accomplish things I never thought possible....this means the workouts and the diet! You guys are awesome!

Keep the nutrition questions, comments and suggestions coming, as we love to share knowledge and help all of our athletes progress!

Healthy Inside and Out

Its time to check in on your nutrition. If you are competing in the Caveman Nancy Challenge be sure to bring your food logs to class this week. Hand them to a coach and ask for feedback. Have you fallen off the wagon? Take a look at these before and after picture. Keep your head in the game! For those of you not doing challenge, maybe these pictures will help move you in the paleo direction. Its not a diet, its a healthy change to your lifestyle.


2 months into CrossFit -- no change in high carb eating pattern -- sugared coffee, oatmeal, juices, sandwiches, chips, pasta, popcorn, and ice cream.

5 months into CrossFit and 3 months into paleo eating pattern -- as much as desired of animal products (excluding dairy) and seasonal fruits and vegetables.

In a food processor, shred zucchini and carrots. Add to sausage and ground beef mixture. Cook for about 15-20 minutes until everything is cooked down. Garnish with avocado and salsa! Yummy!

Goodbye Matt!
















Making sure we were fed after the Epic Challenge!












Matt is leaving us to head to college at UCF! Matt has been around Tillman Physical Therapy & Sports Training since December of 2005! He started with us as a patient. He was a freshman in high school with a bit of attitude, but progressed quickly to become David's right-hand man and assistant. When we affiliated with CrossFit, Inc. in 2007, Matt was one of the first to jump on board with the idea and concepts and loved it! Matt played football for Cedar Park High School and although he suffered an injury, he was there for his teammates every step of the way.

Matt is an excellent athlete. Due to his injury, Matt double-unders on one leg and rows instead of runs. He is an inspiration to those who don't think they can - because he does it - injuries not withstanding. He is on our leader board in several places. He just went up 40lbs on his CrossFit Total with 915, a 5'35" Fran, 4'34" Grace, 8'20" Jackie and our first to master 30 Muscle-ups for time!

Matt is our employee, a terrific CrossFit Level 1 and Youth Speed & Agility Coach and above all else - a great friend. We will miss you, but know you are going to kick butt in College! Thanks for everything!

Fear Not

I've been watching a few of the females around our gym and wondering why they are still scaling their weights so low on the workouts. With 12 months of CrossFit and no history of injury under their belt, taking a wod that is a prescribed 95 lbs down to 65 lbs leaves me wondering where their desire for self improvement sits. Today, after the 5:30am class finished the WOD I asked what the deal was and the response hit home. "I'm scared of the weight." I have to admit that I've been there. I didn't even know I was scared of the weight until someone pushed me past what I thought was my limit. I very clearly remember that day, as I cussed and pouted about a metcon where I was strategically pushed into using 185 lbs on the dead lifts. That was the day I broke through a physical and mental block. I stepped off a plateau and into the next level of self achievement and all around improvement.

Ladies, take it to the next level and fear not! Guys, Don't let our ladies crush you...

Challenging Yourself

Do you find it difficult to challenge yourself to go to the next level knowing it will make your time slower or just be extremely hard?



On our Nancy Challenge, we thought Courtney would put herself into the Beginner Category. She surprised us on Friday by doing some Overhead Squats with the 45lb bar and decided she would go into the Intermediate Category.



I'm pretty sure during some of the rounds, especially 1 and 2, she wanted that light bar back, but she pushed through and rounds 3, 4 and 5 were great! She found her rhythm and went with it.



Our challenges are designed to see how much you can improve in 6 weeks. By upping her weight, Courtney put herself into the position to be able to cut some serious time off her Nancy WOD. That is exciting! Courtney is following the same path as her sister, Brittany, who just had her first RX in July. This family is kicking butt!



Have you challenged yourself recently?

Nicole Ashman



1 granny smith

3 oz crushed cashews

6 oz unsweetened coconut milk

1/3 cup unsweetened apple juice, natural juice

1 tsp cinnamon

1 egg




Remove core and slice apples into slices. Beat the egg and add the milk and juice in one bowl. In another put the cinnamon and cashews, mix. Dredge the apple slice in the milk then dip it in the cashews, coat it. The coating will be sticky. You only have to coat the top side. Line a pan with aluminum foil and grease it with coconut oil.




Place the apples on the pan. Bake at 350 till golden brown.
