Im doing a food drive...bucket should be out by this evening...bring me your food...cans, boxes, usual nonperishable stuff

What's the difference between knees to elbows and just an air squat, are you holding any weight with knees to elbows?

Let's get it together people. NY Times article on foam rolling and recovery: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/12/03/health/nutrition/03fitness.html

Will, are you drunk commenting?

Ben, Can you see over the mountain from there?

K2E's that I've done here are hanging off the pull up bar and you lift your knees up to your elbows. I am horrible at them and consider them an affront to nature and common decency. So there.

Aaaaaa Rich! Thank you for that much needed laugh!!!

that was a bad ass video...but the photo gallery rocks as well! hey guerilla girls just added desingner gear to the party hope to c u here.201-507-1373.

No Gregg I'm not drunk commenting haha I've never done them or seen them. I would have looked up the video, but I'm at work, all blocked

i just assumed knees to elbows meaning when your squatting you hit your elbows to your knees, but yeah, whoops!

Sorry Will I just had to. Hitting knees to elbows is never a good thing. Rich did a great job explaining. Great job last night at 7pm Will.

In an attempt to answer the Q of the Day... (I'm at work and can't do my research, this is all off the top of my head)...

1. The lime juice helps to blunt any insulin response from the alcohol, it also create a net alkaline balance once it hits the blood stream. (this is a good thing)

2. The carbonation in the soda water actually helps get the alcohol into the blood stream faster, the actual mechanism escapes me right now but those little bubbles of CO2 messes you up faster.

3. The tequila is a paleo drink in that it's fermented from the sugar of the agave plant rather than wheat or grains like beer and other hard alcohols. Robb recommends GOLD because your tequila should kick you in the pants and Silver is just too smooth.

Though I question how "paleo" soda water is, other than pockets of CO2 erupting under water i don't see it being very available to paleo man. ;-)

In other new, I miss you guys. I got sick like 4 weeks ago so i took a week off, then work got in the way, haven't been home in time to turn around and make it to GF... :-( so sad. Though I've been doing the Wichita Falls Novice Program in my garage as i have a barbell set and pull up bar available to me. I HOPE to get in next week, though I haven't done a shred of metcon so I'm gonna get my ass handed to me I fear.

Answer: 2 shots of gold tequila will land me on my as*. Michelle, Reiko and I will be ingesting the Norcal Margaritas at the Holiday Party while talking about Paleo. Then we will play games. Those girls over there know what I'm talking about... CMAD - The prize cannot be a GFCM hat, because they are also free, like the gatorade.....

jodi - margaritas and games. yessss.

oh no. definitely no more margaritas for this girl, paleo or not -- i'm under strict instructions from dave on that. ;)

@Ruth: I'm too busy trying to breath to notice the view.

Carlos, is this a trick question? Is yeast allowed in the true definition of the paleo diet?

Jodi!!! you are too funny =) i will bring my own jug/box of wine to enjoy.... Franzia stands?
