Nutrition - 25 April 2011 - A week's worth of reading and workouts

Happy Monday, All!

 

Apparently, I had forgotten that Friday was a company holiday around here at CNH as I pushed off last week’s round-up to the last day. My apologies to all for that so here is a quick set of links that are provided each week by blog.ModernPaleo.com of some of the most popular posts coming down the pike.

(I tried to copy it over to here for your convenience but Outlook keeps shutting down when I tried to send. You’ll have to check it out the old fashioned way!)

 

And of course, this week’s workouts! Go hard, get strong! Enjoy the journey.

 

To the path.

Mike.
