Intermittent fasting has been widely discussed in the fitness industry for the last 10 years. Intermittent fasting is simply going a period of time with very few to no calories. To say it another way, intermittent fasting is consolidating your calorie intake into an 8- to 10-hour feeding window. Intermittent fasting can be done every day or only a few days a week.

Hi and happy Tuesday!I am terrible about working out at home. I can probably count the number of times on one hand that I’ve performed circuit/strength workouts at home. I either need to be out on a run, in the gym or in the yoga studio to get into workout zone. I was busy with various projects on Sunday and unable to get out of the house for a workout. I had plans to see the new Hunger Games movie with friends and time was running out

Diagnosed With MS – Now Stronger And Healthier Than Ever! 5 Comments Monday, November 4th, 2013 Testimonial written by Becky Chadwell:I can’t begin to say enough thanks to the paleo world out there. In November of 2012, after a heavy workout, my pinky and ring finger on each hand started tingling. I thought to myself, “Great, turn 32 and I’m falling apart from lifting 60 pounds.” I was really careful and tried to stretch but after about a week of this the numbness and tingling invaded both of my hands entirely.Being a nurse I thought through all sorts of terrible possibilities and settled on calling a chiropractor because I must have pulled or compressed something in my back.  It was about 2 weeks after all of this that I woke up one day and the tingling was running through both of my big toes

I’ve stayed up a little past my bedtime celebrating my mom’s birthday and getting some chores done around the apartment tonight, so this post is going to be brief! BreakfastDue to a lack of groceries in the house, breakfast was a little boring this morning. Two slices of sunflower and flax toast with raspberry jam was about all I could throw together!WorkoutAfter a morning of teaching riding lessons, I came home and got a lot accomplished around the apartment. I also did a 30 minutes HIIT Workout right at home from JessicaSmithTV. Don’t let the length of the workout and the fact that it can be done at home fool you…this one was a KILLER

Meals for the Week – Paleo Comfort Some More! 3 Comments Friday, September 20th, 2013 Meals for the Week – Paleo Comfort Foods Style #3You ever have one of those days when the kitchen just wasn’t calling your name and the thought of grabbing take-out Thai, or running out to eat at your local Mexican joint, or indulging a bit at your favorite neighborhood bistro sounded about 435% more tempting than cooking or reheating leftovers? Yeah, we had a lot of those days this past week, and were oh-so-tempted…but I can tell you that we felt about 894% (these are all very precise numbers) better (and saved some cash too) by focusing on what we had on hand and choosing to eat things where we could control every single ingredient that went into the preparation. Not to mention the fact that this way we were certain not to waste food.  Here’s an interesting (but old) infographic about food waste. Does your household waste 10+ pounds of meat and fish and 24 pounds of fresh fruits and vegetables PER MONTH?

I’m not an expert on people, but I do believe in two fundamental truths:The prospect of wealth motivates deceit.andThe natural state of a human is expansion.Now, the first truth we’ll save for another blog post, as it is the second truth that I think relates best to what I want to talk about today.We expand. It’s what we like to do. We like to take up more space.

In Memoriam: Mary Sydna Wolf 64 Comments Saturday, July 20th, 2013 My mom died last night at 8:30 after many ups and downs over the past few months when her health really took a turn. The reality of it all is slowly percolating through me…but we had ample time to say good-bye’s and be at peace with things. I never really got to say goodbye to my Dad so I’m grateful for that at least, although the past few months were really hard on my mom.Mom was born in Appleton Arkansas, June 18th 1941, right at the tail end of the dust-bowl and Great Depression. She was one of three kids.
