    Maffetone Method Thread

    My improvements with Maffetone were very modest but I will try again now that I'm on a low-carb diet and have much more energy in the afternoons and evenings. I suspect my body was still storing a lot of what I ate as fat rather than burning it for energy. This time around I will stay within the...

    Finally trying barefoot for more than half a mile

    :D Ok, maybe not EXAAAACTLY the same. I could obviously feel the asphalt. What I meant is that it was equally comfortable, my balance was the same, turnover the same, same feel in the leg muscles, same relaxation when running etc. There may be subtle differences in my form that I'm not aware of...

    Finally trying barefoot for more than half a mile

    Since everyone here talks about the benefits of going completely barefoot compared to minimalist and the weather finally got up to 60 degrees I decided to finally try it for more than the half a mile I did before. I did 0.6 miles on one day and then 2 miles the next day, carrying my VFF's in...

    "Wheatbelly" by William Davis

    I've been busy for a while but wanted to share that after going gluten-free for a while I have now gone l0w-carb, not quite paleo, still enjoying lots of raw dairy, but reducing carbs below 80 grams/day and hoping to get back under 50 grams/day where I was two weeks ago before I got the flu and...

    This is 12 days without This is 12 days without wheat/gluten and my running is suddenly improving. I had my best run since starting the Maffetone method and am glad I had my heart rate monitor to give me feedback or I may have missed it. I ran for 1 hour, 4.7 miles (up from 4.4 mph 2 days...

    Dairy - Yes or No or Maybe

    One thing about almond milk One thing about almond milk and other nut milk: they have very little protein in them compared to real milk. I know that soy is bad for people who have thyroid issues which is one reason I stay away from it. Another concern is that over 90% of soy is GMO if you are...

    Dairy - Yes or No or Maybe

    There is a pizza crust recipe There is a pizza crust recipe on the wheatbelly blog as well but I haven't tried it yet. Pizza is one of my favorite foods, too, but of course now I wonder if it was part of my wheat addiction since I haven't craved it lately.

    Looks like young white-tail Looks like young white-tail does to me. They may have been abandoned or the mom got killed. I suspect they have bonded enough with the dog that they will hang around close to the house and they have their natural protector. :) Interesting to watch their play...

    Synthetic Biology or "Playing God"

    The reason I'm posting this here is because of the tremendous possible implications for all life forms incl. humans, animals and plants (incl. food). This is a link to a free online documentary that I just discovered. It goes way beyond mixing genes of different animal species although that is...

    So I've been gluten-free for So I've been gluten-free for 8 days now. When I tried to run last Wednesday I was much slower than what's normal for me. I suspect I did have some mild wheat withdrawal but would not have noticed without running with heartrate cap. Yesterday, day 8, I went for a...

    Dairy - Yes or No or Maybe

    Concerning the calcium, I Concerning the calcium, I have eaten very high dairy for years and it wasn't even the raw milk dairy that I try to buy now and I've never taken calcium supplements.
