Still in the cave people. By tomorrow night I hope to basically be done with my master’s degree in health and nutrition education besides editing. Tonight’s topics include why are nutrient dense foods important, organic, fats, proteins, carbs, vitamins, minerals, and how to balance blood sugar. GAME TIME! Enjoy your evening. Back to the cave I go.
Hope you all had a nice Thanksgiving. I definatley had a food coma after eating free range turkey, organic potatoes with grass fed butter, organic green beans and a ton of ice cream. The last couple days I have been in my cave trying to put the finishing touches on my thesis so I can finally be done after 2 long years of studying and writing. The goal is to be done by the end of next weekend so keep my in your prayers.
Finishing my master’s degree will be a monumental day in my life as when I was younger I thought I was not as smart as everyone else and I became the class clown to try and cover up my insecurities. Little did I know that with a little hard work, help from others, and Jesus coming into my life changed everything. No matter what your issues or dreams are you can overcome and make them happen.
I just finished up a nice workout knocking out some alternating kettlebell military press, inverted bar pull with feet on swiss ball, double angle bicep curls, and some oblique work using a medicine ball. Back to the cave as I sip on some raw goat’s milk, gelatin, and sugar to help with recovery. Have an awesome day.
What it is? I am going to be a hermit for the next 2 weeks as it is now crunch time for me to finish my thesis and finally get my master’s degree in health and nutrition education after 2 long years of work. Eventhough I am going to be sitting in a chair for hours at a time it is still very important to fuel my body with nutrient dense foods to fuel what my brain needs. I don’t want my blood sugar to drop or get to high and throw off my focus and energy needed to research and write.
It will be important for me to fuel my body with good sugars but also eat fats, carbs, and proteins together to help stabilize my blood sugar. Right now it’s 10am and I have already had eggs, coconut oil, unpasteurized orange juice, gelatin, raw goat cheese, carrots, and pickling salt. Back to my cave. Enjoy your day.
Check out the primal pattern movements in action. Give me a call or find a CHEK practitioner in your area to get you dialed in. Exercise is just one piece of the puzzle. Every person has different needs when it comes to working-out and working-in. Paul Chek is a beast in the gym. I have witnessed him training on a couple of different occasions. I don’t know about you but I want to stay self-sufficient and functional in every area of my life as I age. It’s never to late to start a fitness program for you. Enjoy the video.
DUNAMIS! Good morning people. I was teaching my middle school physical education students about the wheel of life and the wheel of death yesterday so I thought I would post it here as well. I learned this info from Paul Chek about 6 years ago and you can read his recent blog post about the subject by clicking here. He has some good pictures to look at so you can fully understand what I am talking about.
The basic gist is damaged soil creates damaged nutrient deficient plants, then sick drugged animals eat the damaged plants that came from the damaged soil then WE come along and eat the sick animal who ate the damaged plant that came from the damaged soil which can lead to a vast array of health issues. That is why I am a big believer in eating organic, free range, pastured, grass fed whole foods.
My food menu yesterday consisted of buffalo, pastured eggs, organic watermelon, organic cantaloupe, pickling salt, coconut oil, gelatin, organic carrots, sheep’s milk cheese, unpasteurized pulp free orange juice, and dark chocolate(no soy).
If you want to learn what foods, carb/fat/protein ratios and frequencies are best for your unique body please give me a call. Click here to learn more about the Dunamis Nutrition Plan.
What’s up everyone? I am a bit burned out on all this blogging(I have 3 blogs) so this post will have to last for a while. You may have noticed in a couple of my recent posts that I have been showing you what I ate for an entire day. This past April I started to follow the teaching of Ray Peat, Lita Lee(I like her newsletter), and following what Josh Rubin has been teaching on Ray Peat and others. I had been following metabolic typing for about 6 years but over time with personal experience, studying and research I decided to make a change.
I started to follow the principles of Ray Peat and immediately had more energy, corpse like sleep, even better bowel movements then I was already having, and the pain and sensitivity I had in my teeth vanished. My afternoon nap is a thing of the past. It was quite profound.
I encourage you guys to click on each of the names above and check out their websites. Some of the information is very hard to read but you can get some good nutrition nuggets to implement into your life. Eventhough I read most of the information I still needed to study under a friend of mine to make sure I was on point.
If you would like to work with me so I can get you dialed in on the right foods and the right ratios of fats, carbs, and proteins your body needs, and the frequencies and times you should be eating please let me know. Each person is different and I will teach you how to fine tune your food plan on a daily basis. The food plan includes a wide variety of tasty foods. Some of the topics that will be covered are fats, proteins, carbohydrates, sugar, gluten, soy, dairy, gelatin, coconut oil, vegetarianism, digestion, vitamins, minerals, supplements, body temperature, balancing blood sugar, stress and hormones.
FRIDAY! What’s up Dunamis people? It’s been a while since I last checked in. Yesterday I was teaching my middle school physical education students about the primal pattern movements that I learned from Paul Chek from the CHEK Institute. PPM are used in our everyday lives, at work, and in all the sports we play. They are the base for most movements we perform. The PPM include pushing, pulling, squatting, lunging, twisting, bending, and gait(walking, jogging, sprinting). We all need to practice these movements to stay functional and strong in our everyday lives especially as we age. To watch a short video on each movement click here. Make sure to talk to your doctor or your personal trainer before you start practicing the primal pattern movements.
Get off your butts people and get active!

Good morning people. My thoughts and prayers are with all of those families who lost loved ones on 9/11 ten years ago today and for our armed forces across the world. It’s been a while since I last checked in. I am back to my day job teaching physical education and today is going to be a rest and repair day. I did go for a 10 minute jog this morning followed up with a light stretching session. Now it’s time to kick back and watch tennis, football, and baseball all day long and fuel my body with nutrient dense foods.
On the menu today is sardines, cantaloupe, strawberries, dark chocolate, carrots, sheep’s cheese, sweet potato, raw butter, salt, and beets. These foods will meet my specific fats, proteins, carbohydrate requirements for the day. Let me know if you need help with your unique food requirements in your life. Each person is different and has different nutrient needs. Have a restful day.
Good morning guys. I just ate some free range eggs cooked in coconut oil with organic cantaloupe to kick off my day. Once my food digests for a bit I am going to knockout a quick strength training session followed up with a sauna session. How did you start off your day? Give me a call or shoot me an email to set up a free consultation so I can get you dialed in and teach you how to build robust health. Enjoy the video below from my boy Josh Rubin.
