Quick note about today’s show. If you listened last week, you know that this week I’m talking to Chrissy King. She is a powerlifter, fitness/nutrition coach, and writer, but that is not the whole topic of discussion today. After the events in Charlottesville, VA in August of 2017, Chrissy wrote a powerful blog post about why social justice issues DO belong in the fitness/wellness conversation. After reading her post, I decided to invite her on to continue the conversation that her post started. We talk a lot about how to train and what to eat on this show, but we also speak often to total well-being. This includes stress management, mindset, overcoming challenges, changing your perspective, relating to others, and finding strength within oneself. This is what we’re talking about today. I understand that this may feel like a way too political conversation for a ‘paleo’ show. I get it. I acknowledge that we may have very different views and some of you may feel defensive, upset, or even find this conversation offensive. In that case, go ahead and skip the show. I ask that you try to open your mind, heart, and ears in an effort to get uncomfortable for the sake of growth. Understand that Chrissy and myself are coming from a positive place with this conversation. We’re not talking about conservatives, republicans, liberals, or democrats. We’re talking about us, as human beings, and how we relate to each other. We talk about WHY topics like racism, sexism, and other social justice issues DO, in fact, have a place in the health and wellness conversation. As Chrissy says in the show: “When someone tells you their story – believe them.” Stay up to date and learn more about Chrissy by following her on all the things Email – [email protected] Instagram – @iamChrissyKing Twitter – @iamChrissyKing Facebook – Chrissy King Fitness Blog – ChrissyKing.com Don’t forget about our awesome sponsor!!

We’ve got SO much to talk about this week. Everett and Kristin kick off the show with a little talk about checking your ego in the gym and how CrossFit is making the Games fun again. Then. we’re joined by Joshua Weissman to talk about everything from how he lost 100+ lbs at 16, to what it’s like working in a professional kitchen, to the politics of food and nutrition. At 21, he’s got more kitchen chops than most and some pretty great insights into how to break away from Paleo dogma to find what works best for you. Topics include: How he lost 100+ lbs as a teenager with paleo Why and how he started reintroducing non-paleo foods (like bread) Food blogging vs actually working in a kitchen Rebranding and social media – follower backlash How Paleo may be limiting your reach The politics of food recommendations Taking better food pictures Josh is a food blogger (currently at slimpalate.com), author (The Slim Palate Paleo Cookbook), and now you can learn the basics of cooking with his youtube show “Cooking Is Not That Hard“.

Part 2 of our listener question episode. We’re talking about a lot this week, so here are some terms that you may want to be familiar with: Macros – Refers to macronutrients (Proteins, Carbohydrates, Fats). Macro-plans provide people with a set level in grams of each macronutrient to eat each day. Collagen – Collagen helps make up the structure of skin, bone, cartilage and muscle. It  is made by our body throughout our lifetimes, with the purpose of helping tissues be more elastic and withstand stretching. We used to eat more collagen in our food (bone broths, bone marrow, stews that cooked forever), but these days it’s less common in our daily diet. Folks take collagen supplements to help increase the level in their bodies.  CrossFit Games – The final stage of a worldwide CrossFit competition.   Don’t forget about our awesome sponsor!!
