Watch the video & then head over to PaleoChix blog post - Please Help The Children
Some great advice in that article: "I have clients that tell me their kids are picky eaters, well so are mine, but if I do not bring cupcakes and frozen pizza in the house, they will eat what I serve. I am in charge not the 7 or 3 year old." Also check out the comments where other parents are posting how they overcame the obstacles in their struggle with current health & school systems.
Three rounds for time of:
50 Air Squats

How many people rely on Insulin medication instead of on their brain to solve their own health problems? Because no one else is going to do it for them.
Here's a very simple article on Low Insulin Diet (aka Low Carb Diet, Atkins, Protein Power, Paleo etc) & why they work.

Here's some shoes that are perfect/popular for CrossFit (with comments in brackets):
Asics Onitsuka Tiger & other flat Asics (Budokan, Shihan etc)
Flat New Balance, Adidas (like Samba) etc
Inov-8 (especially Flite 220, Flite 230)
Vibram Five Fingers (you can pick them up & try them on locally at Travel Country on 436)
and here's some more obscure ones:
Evo Terra Plana (expensive, but look very cool!)
Feelmax (I wish they'd have the Niesa in white - I'd order in a heartbeat)
So in case you're shopping for a pair of new kicks - make sure you don't buy the heavy, cushioned sneaker, but rather a minimalist lightweight shoe perfect for a CrossFitter!

NOTICE: It's 3 weeks till the Qualifiers & to help our crew test out their skills - we're going to be doing quite a few benchmarks over the next couple weeks (even if we've done them recently). Plus we need to fill out the Scoreboard that's been empty for too long! So without further adieu
