Before I started Crossfit I was following the New Rules of Lifting for Women and one of the best outcomes of doing that program was finding an online community of other women who were doing the program or were veterans of it. In skimming the forum recently, one of the admins, Dana, posted something that […]

After my last Crossfit competition, I provided a handy guide for what to pack. But how do you Eat to Perform for a Crossfit competition day to ensure you are properly fueled for the workouts? Without strictly following any program, I had previously suggested items like Larabars, raw veggies, nuts, and avocados. While these options may work for […]

It is not too often that I post a recipe, but after concocting such a simple paleo ice cream in the kitchen, I felt obligated to share it with the world! While I am not a big fan of people using the term “paleo dessert”, since I think absolute paleo does not really involve snacking […]

A while back, I was a part of the awesome Foodie Pen Pals, run by superwoman Lindsay, over at the Lean Green Bean (follow her today if you do not already). I loved being a part of the monthly food exchange, but since starting my stricter “paleo-ish” lifestyle, I always felt as if I was being […]
