Here is a great source for those of you looking for new breakfasts, lunch, dinners, and snacks…It is the Zone Diet, which is similar to the Paleo diet. There are less restictions in the Zone diet to what you can eat, but you will need to measure your food. Most of the battle for any diet, or as I like to call them eating plans, is what to eat, and how much.
The language is a bit different too. It speaks in terms of “blocks” for meals and snacks. 2.3.4 block meals and 1 block snacks. Most women are going to be around 11-15 blocks and most guys are going to be around 16-22 blocks. If you would like to know exactly how many “blocks” you should be eating in a day just ask one of the trainers and they can help you get that number.

Murph
In memory of Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy, 29, of Patchogue, N.Y., who was killed in Afghanistan June 28th, 2005. This workout was one of Mike’s favorites and he’d named it ‘Body Armor.’ From here on it will be referred to as ‘Murph’ in honor of the focused warrior and great American who wanted nothing more in life than to serve this great country and the beautiful people who make it what it is.
