Re: Thoughts after 2 cycles of 5/3/1
I get what you are saying, but I happen to disagree with it.
It seems that the most successful people in CF and CF games have a pretty serious athletic background.. Like Division 1, amateur, pro,...

Re: Thoughts after 2 cycles of 5/3/1
I can't help but feel that some of you are missing some key points of 5/3/1.
A "cycle" in 5/3/1 isn't like a typical say 12 week powerlifting cycle or something.
It's more of a wave program...3...

Re: Vegan Paleo
That's 19% OF 80% according to that document.
It works out to about 64g of carbs from grains, with about 41g of carbs from rice and a meager 23g from other grains (wheat, etc).
That is not a large...

Not in my wife's family.
And so, you still haven't shown that they EAT GRAINS as their main carbohydrate. You'll notice that on your link only 19% total comes a combo of rice and grains. So out of...

Re: Vegan Paleo
Not my facts:
73% of Hunter-Gatherers obtained <50% of their energy from animal products.
Only 14% of HG obtained <50% of their energy from plant derived food.

Re: Vegan Paleo
There is this thing called science. In particular, biochemistry. It explains why people feel bad AT FIRST on low-carb diets. I don't have to know you.
BTW, a "staple" is NOT a "grain-based" diet....

Coconut fat is MCT's and are available as quickly as most carbs.
There are no cultures that do well on "grain-based" diets. You are welcomed to post a link that proves otherwise. But I haven't found...

Re: Paleo Blood Work Results
Agree!
Unless your "red meat" is local grass-feed, you've got to watch the fat in meat...as Robb Wolf, Berardi and Cordain have all said in carious ways: fat is where the nasty stuff hides".

Re: Wendler 5/3/1 and crossfit
I don't understand what you are trying to do.
It seems you have two goals: build strength and do mma.
If those are really goals, who cares about "gpp"?
Doing mma is about as "gpp" as you can get....

Re: Paleo Diet...lean you, lean wallet?
What?
28 pieces of meat a week is insane. That's four chicken breasts a day roughly.
Going paleo to gain weight is a little assbackwards. I don't know if I missed the specifics but I would LEAN OUT...
