Diets: the whole30, paleo, …!

[Maynard Friedman]

Is anyone on here still following the paleo diet?

They have probably run out of money–aren't the components of that diet relatively high on the food chain?

I have tried several ways of eating, and what has worked best for me is a very high percentage carbohydrate diet--mostly bread, pasta, and rice, which I know is well out of style. I'm old now, and this way of eating has kept me with (healthfully) low blood pressure, low body fat, and excellent cholesterol ratios.

A bonus is it very inexpensive to eat this way. Also, I travel a lot and must eat what's available. Every culture has this type of food readily available. Eat anything, sleep anywhere, and travel is a breeze. I'm an easy guest.

(I know this isn't for everybody, and heaven forfend the gluten.)

I have been paleo over 2 years now

[Maynard Friedman]

I assume you're happy with it then!

It works for me and when I don't eat Paleo I feel like shit.

where do you get your tabata templates/programming?

[mclaincausey]

The only tabata template you need is a fan bike and 8 cycles of all out for 20 and rest for 10 seconds. I have tried many different methods and nothing touches a fan bike.

check youtube for some input on all the different types of training you can do! @llvlaglne
