There is a lot of misunderstanding, and controversy surrounding the Paleo diet plan and there really shouldnt be.
The Paleo diet plan starts with the simple observation that our DNA has not changed significantly in the last 40,000 years or so. Therefore, by eating a diet closer to this ancient diet, we may be avoiding disease and obesity. It doesnt seem difficult to believe that our present day diets of prepackaged foods, food additives and such isnt doing us any good. In fact, it is proven that these things do contribute to diseases and conditions as well as obesity.

I love Tsukemono, which in Japanese means “pickled things”. And I would include into that category fermented veggies, like Kimchee and sauerkraut. Everything from umeboshi to takuan to what my Granddad called “California Kimchee” (a combination of cauliflower, carrots, and onions pickled together in a mason jar). Yummy!
But don’t think I’m some sort of pickle-hipster who’s elitism about how pickles “should” be made, or “should” taste overrides my enjoyment of the simple, classic dill pickle.
Oh, no, my friend! I’m a pickle-junkie. There’s a difference. I’ll eat just about anything pickled (including pickled pigs feet – don’t judge, it just tastes like pickle).
So when I discovered these Van Holten’s Dill Pickles – tasty, giant, 99 cent pickles at the gas station – I had to try them out.
NOTE: I am a big fan of eating pickles before and during my workouts. Hydration isn’t just about water, it’s also about electrolytes, the most important of which is salt. Pickles … have a lot of salt Throw in a banana or two and you have yourself some magic.

I know getting up every morning to hit the gym, eating clean, drinking water, and making healthy choices throughout the day is not always easy. If it were, everyone would do it! So how do you hold yourself accountable and how do you stay on track in order to lead a healthy, fit life? Some of us have the internal drive and motivation we all these people “self-starters”- but I’m here to tell you even the “self starter” needs a little accountability from time to time.

The Samurai embraced the soldiers-paradox: If you fear death, you will die.
They were brave, as all warriors must be. The basic neurological fact that fear causes your brain to shut down your ability to do parasympathetic tasks (like complex sword fighting techniques, or snatching) was intuitively understood by ancient Samurai.(1) However, they weren’t just interested in surviving.
Bravery and Courage are not the same thing.
To be brave is to do something despite the fact that you are frightened. To show courage is to do something that scares you precisely because you know you must – because it is the right thing to do. So, courage is a kind of bravery, but not always the other way around.
What makes the Samurai a particularly unique brand of warrior was their sense of total righteousness (as explained in Part One of this series) and how that impacted their sense of courage.
The soldiers-paradox, when correctly understood and applied, will keep you alive (or will – at least – make that more likely). But, how do you explain Seppuku (ritual suicide), an act ubiquitous with Samurai?
Today we’re going to look beyond survival and the mental fortitude it takes to stay alive, into the courage it takes to die for the right reasons – where that comes from – and how to apply it to your weightlifting.
In Japanese, the 2nd code of Bushido is “Yuuki”.(2)
There are two kanji characters that make up this word, and it helps to understand it by first breaking them apart, then putting them back together again.
The first kanji is yuu which means “bravery” or “heroism”, and can even mean “to be in high spirits” or “cheer up”.
It is used in closely related words like:
The second kanji is ki which means “spirit” or mind and has found its way into one of Japan’s most enduring exports: the martial art, Aikido.
Putting yuu and ki back together, then, gives us “bravery of spirit”, which is how I am defining courage in this context.
“Today is a good day to die” – Crazy Horse, the great Sioux Chief(5)
Samurai considered seppuku(6) to be among the most honorable ways to die. However, that doesn’t take away it’s brutality or its disconnect from our modern way of thinking about life – and by extension – death.
Seppuku WAS brutal.
The ritual required that you stab yourself in the stomach, then slice yourself open from left-to-right. If for some reason you were unable to carry this out, don’t worry, your best friend was standing behind you and would slice your head off to ensure your honor was maintained.(7)
In other words, you were not simply killing yourself. You were killing yourself in a horribly painful way.
Seppuku was a right, a privilege – Samurai could only commit ritual suicide with permission.(8) Being forced to die in a dishonorable way was unthinkable, and considered a far worse fate.
The first recorded act of seppuku was carried out by Minamoto no Yorimasa, a Samurai general in 1180, during the battle of Uji. Over the course of the next milenia, the ritual became codified, and extremely formalized.
Unless you were committing seppuku on the battlefield, you would normally be bathed, dressed in white ceremonial robes, fed your favorite meal, all before carrying it out in front of an audience.
After their meal, a tanto (knife)(9) would be placed upon the Samurai’s plate. The warrior would then write a death poem.
As soon as the warrior made his cut across his abdomen, his second would slice his head off in one cut – leaving just a bit of skin attached so that the head would fall forward, still attached, to appear as though it was being held.
No doubt about it – as is true with many of our applications of Samurai principles to our modern peaceful lives – we should NOT mimic the Samurai literally!
Seppuku was a barbaric act carried out by medieval warriors who lived a hard, violent, brutal life, and were deeply concerned with maintaining honor at all costs – a very specific brand of “honor” that doesn’t always mesh well with our sense of morality.
But there in lies the POINT.
Courage is an OUTGROWTH of commitment.
“Live when it is right to live, die only when it is right to die.”
The first principle of Bushido is Righteousness, and it is the most important. However, righteousness is a conceptual framework, a way to view the world in the right way so that you can then take action without hesitation.
Greatness requires the COURAGE to take righteous action.
You can’t have a righteous belief system and mindset without the courage to really ACT upon it, that would be worthless.
Like righteousness, courage is not – itself – an ACTION. It isn’t something you DO. But it is the next step in taking action. It is the willingness to take action based upon your sense of what must be done.
In weightlifting you are faced with a battle on every rep.
Your enemy is your own mind – not the barbell!(10) Fear will destroy you and leave you wimpy and whimpering.
Your sense of righteousness – the rightness of your decision(11) – is the source from which your success will come.
Your courage to do what must be done regardless of your fear is what will enable you to carry it out.
You need both.
The Samurai believed in surviving when it was right to survive, and dying when it was right to die… and they had the courage to do what they believed was right, despite the natural fear they (clearly) must have experienced.
You are not facing death. You are facing a heavy snatch. You have even less reason to let fear overtake you.
However, courage is not “acting without fear”. Courage is a type of bravery, and we already know that bravery is acting in spite of your fear.
It doesn’t matter how much fear you have – it may be a lot. What matters is that you ACT anyway – and that you do so righteously!
THAT is courage, and that is how you lift the big weights.
Next time, we will find balance in benevolence – How to use your powers for good, not evil.(12)

Paleo is one of the hottest diets of our time, and for good reason. However, many people are just not sure how to go Paleo.
There are two main benefits of Paleo. The first of course is fat loss. Paleo will definitely get you towards that lean body you are looking for, while giving you the nutrition you need. The second benefit is actually a lot of benefits we will call the health benefits. Many people report improvement of life long chronic conditions, mostly autoimmune disorders which can include allergies and asthma, diabetes and many other disorders. So many people each day want to know how to go Paleo ?
There are many plans out there. Some are very scientific and complicated, while others are not. As mentioned in other posts, you can still get great benefits even if you dont go 100% Paleo. If you are not trying Paleo to combat a disease or health condition, and are just looking to slim down and feel healthier, you dont have to be as concerned with doing everything perfect. It is always good to check with your doctor before starting any diet or fitness program.
To “go Paleo” you must avoid consuming grains, packaged foods, most dairy, and curtail your use of sugars, alcohol and coffee. If you do that, you have started to go Paleo. This means you will be mostly eating vegetables, meats and fruits and nuts. So you can start this way. Dont eat anything from a package, no grains or dairy, and cut your sugars and alcohol. Its not as bad as it seems. For example instead of cereal for breakfast, you can have eggs and bacon. For lunch, a hamburger pattie with a vegetable or salad. A dinner can be steak,shrimp, lobster, pork chops etc. AND, you can eat more smaller meals throughout the day, so you should never really be hungry. Also you will want to avoid legumes (beans). Other than that, you can enjoy a lot of great foods that you love now, often.
This will work fine to start, but soon you will need to start planning. You will not want to eat the same things every day. That is why Paleo recipes are so popular. You can create delicious meals and have a lot of variety in your diet. It also helps to have a Paleo food list. This way you know what to shop for, and what ingredients you will need to create some really tasty dishes.
This is where Paleohacks Paleo Cookbook comes in. There are hundreds of tasty meals, snacks and even desserts. There are six books in all, and they cover the important topics you need to know, and show you step by step how to prepare meals that anyone would rave about. You also get complete grocery lists, a Paleo food list, where to eat Paleo when dining out and more.
Some people do fail on the Paleo diet, but it is almost always because of not knowing exactly what to do. This is where the Paleohacks Cookbook really shines. It has everything you need to prepare and create delicious Paleo food, and walks you step by step into becoming a Paleo diet expert.
More than 50 chefs in the Washington, D.C. area competed in a 12-week weight loss contest. Here’s how six of them fared. Find this and other expertly curated lists at Men’s Journal.
