WOD 7/23/2011

Just kidding :)

Excellent efforts from everyone on Friday. It's very tough doing a workout in that kind of brutal heat, especially with the air being so thick with humidity. Great job.

Make sure you stay hydrated, and make sure you eat enough to keep your energy up. HOWEVER, I'm not telling you to eat garbage to stay energetic. Eat good stuff. Meats and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch, no sugar. An excellent way to stay hydrated is fruit. That juicy plum or nectarine not only gives you natural sugars(good) and lots of essential micronutrients(also good), but also has a high water content and helps you keep water in your system(even more good). It's a win-win-win all around.

Here's Robb Wolf, author of "The Paleo Solution," telling a group of trainers about nutrition. Look him up. Very cool guy. For those looking to lose weight, the real take-away here comes around 6 minutes in.
