When I eat mostly primal I naturally seem to eat about 25 percent carbs and 25 percent protein and 50 percent fat. Recently I have been trying to get that closer to 20 percent carbs, 30 percent protein and 50 percent fat. I eat something before I run and after but I don't specifically eat carbs. Sometimes I will plan my…

I run too. I frequently run on off days because I find that it is harder to run after i lift even if i wait till the end of the day. I am also older (52) and I love that i can run again!

Anna, I'm so sorry.

I really believe that everyone has to find the right thing for them. I was hoping that a pint of hagen daz every day was the right thing for me but darn it it wasn't!! What I thought about last night is that I should go and look at the personality traits of the other groups as if i were in that group. I thought maybe it…

I just had a quick look at the description of type a's . The funny thing is that all the other stuff about personally and stress etc is exactly like me! But as I said I think I do better with some beef. Although I don't eat it every day and I don't have excessive quantities. Sugar and starch is definitely a bad thing for…

That is definitely an advantage of working out at a gym!! ; )

I am an A. I was a vegetarian for a while when I was younger. Primal is much better for me. I do eat a lot of vegetables but I really do much better with meat.

What do you guys do while you are resting between sets? I have a book on my iPhone that I read. I also have a Spanish app that I like to use as well.

We had a nice sunny relatively warm day on tues so I had a nice long run in the park then a SL workout on wednesday and another short run on thurs. My knees got all wonky so I didn't do anything but a little walk on friday. today I was feeling much better so I did a little run/walk around the block in my new vibrams and…

Neon, I didn't get that you were talking about hip thrusts and I didn't know what they were so I googled them and there are some good videos on you tube of some people doing them with the bar. This one guy talks about using padding which seems like it might be a good idea. Have you looked at videos on you tube? what did…

Leadfoot, Ouch!!! I hope your knee is ok! Awesome workout! Have I told you that I think your biceps is beautiful and I hope to have a couple like that some day!

Tendonitis sucks big time!!

I have a pair of converse but my feet are curvy and they are too straight so at the moment I am lifting barefoot. I have to find some flat shoes that have a curved last if not for lifting at least for long boarding. I just got some vibrams but I a saving them for running at the moment. I am still getting used to them. If…

I've tried that. It didn't work for me. Sometimes our hunger hormones are screwed up. I agree with the trial and error method. Everyone is different so you have to find what works for you. I have a healthy appetite and I like it that way. I want to maintain that appetite because I don't want to end up one of those old…

I gained 20lbs over the last year for just this reason! I starving all the time!! Even eating more. What an annoying thing! I've started to move down again but this last year has been very hard. I drink a large two cup mug of tea after meals and in-between as well as increasing vegetables and protein and decreasing sugar…

lwoodroff, LOL!!! How is your …I think it is wrist? tendonitis right? Katerina, 150 lb squats is awesome!! I also do the increase when I am ready. I get those emails from Mehdi every day and I don't believe him when he says to go up every time. That kind of thinking can get you injured!! (I think anyway! ; )) I think it…

I eat a three egg omelette with cheese and 2 or 3 cups of frozen vegetables for breakfast almost every day. Sometimes I eat a can of tuna or salmon and frozen vegetables and a whole avocado. The egg theme is usually an omelette but it could also be a frittata or scrambled, or boiled (soft or hard), or poached. Poached in…

Happy early Birthday to me!! My Husband bought me my Vibrams today!! I was going to wait to see if I got any money for my birthday from my family but he said he wanted to get me something I would really like and I should get the ones that felt really good the first time I put them on not wait in case the next pair I tried…

I just had my baby 16 years ago. At 4 he decided he wanted to be a vegetarian for ethical reasons. He eventually started having blood sugar and behavioural issues. We eventually told him he had to eat some form of meat for medicinal purposes. He would only eat chicken, cheese, and eggs for protein. We cut out grains for…

I've always thought that Hagen daz came in single serving containers? Ie a pint not those pathetic little ones!
-
I'm not cleansing right now but I admire and envy all of you who are! Have you tried a combination of Hagen Daz chocolate peanut butter and their coffee?? I think about half and half of each. So it works perfectly if you have a friend, you can each have a pint and share. Very Romantic!
