Sunday, 09.05.10: Hero Week Survial

Mike Goldberg captured some of your ups and downs during Hero Week with this video of the WOD JT! It was a tough week and just when you thought it was done we hit you Severin on labor day but I think almost everybody survived. I think everybody liked it too otherwise why would you have posted over 170+ comments on the GI Joe Blog to vote for Hero Week in the first place.

If you ever wondered what all the Hero workouts are to mentally prep your self HERE is the list.

Which one would you not want to do?

Great job everybody for a great week of training.

P.S. Videos are more reason to have good form. You don't want any thing sloppy caught on film!

Saturday, 09.04.10: Books are in!

Robb Wolf's New Book just arrived! The first 40 or so books go to the Epic! Paleo Challengers and the remaining copies will be for sale for $25 next week.

Many of you met Robb at his Crossfit Nutrition Cert last year, but for those of you not familiar with his work, let's just say he's a super smarty pants, former research biochemist turned CrossFit/strength and conditioning coach. He's helped hundreds look better, feel better and perform better!

(From the cover of the book) Wolf's unique perspective as both a scientist and coach will inspire you to discover:

1. What simple foods can dramatically improve your appearance and wellness.
2. The causes behind the modern scourges of cancer, diabetes, and neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's.
3. How to lose unwanted weight while looking and feeling younger.
4. How to improve your athletic performance whether you are surfing couches or scaling mountains.
5. An easy-to-follow 30 day meal plan with delicious, time-efficient recipes.
6. Outstanding beginner and intermediate exercise programs with detailed photographs and "how-to" instructions from one of the world's top strength coaches.

I contacted Robb and his wife Nicki about coming back to the islands for a Paleo Solution Seminar. They have a pretty busy schedule this fall but maybe if we send him a link to this post along with your pleading comments....they just might fanagle their schedule......!
