Usually things consist of:<br /><br />- A long walk at the weekend, in the hills if possible<br />- One or two weight training sessions a week - brief high intensity stuff<br />- Maybe a sprint session<br />- if I can fit it in and get out of work in time, a Krav Maga session<br />some daily things - walks at lunchtime, balance work, mobility stuff to loosen out my hip flexors and keep my glutes firing.<br /><br />Art DeVany's approach is a good start for the philosophy or Mark Sisson's Primal Bluprint fitness: <br /><br />http://www.marksdailyapple.com/primal-blueprint-fitness/<br /> <br />summed up as: sprint every now and then, walk around a lot and sometimes lift something heavy.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00223657383325055342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2467994117916260529.post-81006193396547837202011-01-24T14:39:06.932-08:002011-01-24T14:39:06.932-08:00Asclepius

I'm half way through his book now and I would recommend it. Nicely written, but he sometimes has to tone things down and be less technical than i would like. I read his blog for years and preferred his more thoughtful and technical stuff. The book is good but he is having to explain things simply for a new audience. It has some nice aphorisms in there though....the Zen stuff!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00223657383325055342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2467994117916260529.post-91060555265428939182011-01-24T14:32:16.958-08:002011-01-24T14:32:16.958-08:00I woudnt mind reading something of how you train C...I woudnt mind reading something of how you train Chris, especially as you seem read a lot more on this stuff than I have over the years. Its always interesting to see how someone adopts and uses different protocol for a specific need eg your hillwalking, Krav, daily life etc.Chris Gnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2467994117916260529.post-40465949426058298522011-01-19T04:23:46.353-08:002011-01-19T04:23:46.353-08:00We should all have had a rough idea of what to do ...We should all have had a rough idea of what to do to get a handle on this 'paleo' thing since ADV's Essay on Evolutionary Fitness.<br /><br />If you cannot get a handle on paleo from that essay then I'd suggest people are over-complicating things!<br /><br />All the other stuff that has come out since GCBG, WWGF, NED, PB, PS etc... is just gravy. Useful resources and great reads, but gravy.<br /><br />I like to read paleo-oriented books, papers and blogs to fill in the gaps in my technical understanding, but for me it is as important to read about practical application of the paleo framework and the real-world experiences of others.<br /><br />There are only so many times you can read "cut grains/o6/HFCS" and "lights-out" or "saturated fat is good", "sprint barefoot", "power law yada yada" etc.... <br /><br />Better (IMHO) to see some blogs featuring diet and workouts accompanied by 'before' and 'after' shots (with the odd rant naturally)!<br /><br />Devany's fifth law: "We should recognize the limits of knowledge and just get on the path that favours better outcomes".<br /><br />Show me your path. ;)Asclepiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14604117979253596512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2467994117916260529.post-51547709369698755872011-01-18T13:16:25.932-08:002011-01-18T13:16:25.932-08:00It would be good to see Chris.

I have similar plans for my blog this year too... perhaps a bit more focus on the training stuff and some of my own training/case studies with clients. But neither of us get paid to do this blogging thing, so it all takes second or fifth place behind paying the bills!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
