Introduction to Paleo Eating Workshop May 2, 5:30pm at the Brooklyn Lyceum
Coach Margie gives the lowdown on eating like we're old school.
Maybe you're new to CF South Brooklyn and have overheard whisperings of this crazy "paleo" diet. Lots of meat? And fat? No grains? What about spelt?
Or maybe you went through our Primal Quest and are totally "yeah, yeah, yeah" about the whole thing, but your friends think your propensity for coconut, avocado and pork belly is totally outrageous (because they're secretly envious), and you really wish they'd stop pestering you and just try it, for god's sake.
Or maybe your athletic performance has hit a wall, your body composition is not optimal, or you're worried you might be heading down the road towards type II diabetes.
Well, here is the perfect opportunity to find out a few answers about this incredibly common sense, yet oddly controversial approach to eating. We'll tackle the fundamental principles of paleolithic dining, its value in the context of health and athletic ability, and how to incorporate it into your life. We'll also look at some of the reasons why people resist eating this way.
You'll walk away with a solid understanding of the basics, resources to find out more and a few recipes. Plus a tasty homemade paleo snack!
All for $5. Pretty sweet deal.

Warm Up:-3:00 row at 18 s/m-Mobility prep (lacrosse ball/foam roll)-PVC Overhead Squat
Overhead Squat:(45×5, 60×5, 70×4)work: 70x5x5-Thought about trying 75 for sets across, but decided against it. The first couple of sets were really wobbly, but I felt I settled down for the last three.
270m run:1) :532) :503) 1:00-The first two were barefoot and I ended up tearing my toe on the second one. After cleaning it and putting shoes back on, I went out for my 3rd. About 10 steps into the run, I felt this sudden tightness form in my left quad. I should have stopped then, but I finished in a jog and immediately went to try to roll the knot out. I’ve been icing it now for the past hour and really hope it’s nothing major… 🙁

Was hoping to have ended on a higher note for the last exposure, but ah well, next time.270mx3 run1:10,1:05,1:02barefoot for the first time. Kinda cool. Takes a little getting used to. Nice to run with Katie!
Deb says
Think I was wrong. There is one more exposure to OHS, no? Phew. I’ll nail it then.
katie says
OHSQ: (45×5, 65×5, 85×5, 95×3)three sets of 105×3 but that wasn’t too hard so upped to 5 reps for the last two rounds
270m runs (first one with shoes, last two barefoot)1:11, 1:06, 1:02. faster and more effortless without shoes, but my feet aren’t happy with me. Nice to run with Deb and to get the barefoot tips from Nick!

Malcolm says
OHS Max Effort 3x. 150, 160, 165, 170, 175PR. This was a 10 pound pr since last week. Pretty damn happy with how well this went.
Sprints were less awesome. 1:00, 0:50, 0:51.
Now I am obsessed with the idea of doing a set of 10 OHS at body weight. Sounds brutal, but I am down to 156 so it is 20lbs less than my new 3rm.
Laurel says
OHS: 45×5, 75×3, 95×3, 100x2110x5x5
First set was fine, second set was wobbly and weird, third was a little better, fourth better than that and fifth close to the first. Not sure what was going on, but it might have been thursday’s pull-ups showing through.
Sprints: 52, 56, 1:04. I had so little go-go in my system that I wasn’t sure if my body would really start running when I stood at the start line and people were counting down. I didn’t strategize well either, didn’t do a gentle first attempt and sprinted flat out for the first 130m of the first two attempts and then was dying by the time I was coming back. Felt pretty nauseated. Last attempt I ran more gently due to the nausea and a sense that I could hurt myself if I pushed much harder.
Ditched all accessory work and lay on my back and drank coffee instead. I’m looking forward to the next back-off week, feeling beat up.
It sure was a gorgeous day today! Hope everyone got outside a little to enjoy it.
@Jess: I really hope you didn’t hurt yourself too! I’ve found hot/cold therapy to do wonderful things.
