Albany CrossFit Announces 90-Day Paleo Diet Challenge Winner

Albany, NY (PRWEB) April 24, 2013

Albany CrossFit and Crossfit Clifton Park, part of a worldwide movement that is changing the way people think about diet and fitness, today announced that its 90-day Paleo diet challenge has been won by Dave Wilkinson, a 38-year-old engineer who lost more than 30 pounds and 8 inches from his waistline.

CrossFit changed my life, says Wilkinson.

Once an accomplished real football player who played just below the semi-pro level in his native England, Wilkinson had ballooned to more than 240 pounds after moving to the U.S. five years ago and experiencing the pleasures of the American diet and the demands of a busy work and family schedule.

Wilkinson knew he had to do something to get back in shape. He found running on his own five days a week boring. A neighbor suggested CrossFit. Wilkinson found at CrossFit Clifton Park the camaraderie and teamwork he remembered from his football days.

But it wasnt easy at first.

Wilkinson says his first workout with coach Jason Murphy wasnt a pretty sight. He says he cant even remember what that workout was, but does remember he couldnt finish it and took 20 minutes to recover before getting in his car to drive home.

But he stuck it out. Wilkinson began with six personal training sessions and then joined regular classes. Im a very determined person, says Wilkinson.

Wilkinson lost 31 pounds during the 90 day Paleo Challenge, on top of the 10 pounds hed previously lost. His body fat percentage dropped from 28% to 15%.

Wilkinson also recorded big performance increases in benchmark workouts. He can now row 10 kilometres in 37:30, back squat 315 pounds, and do 103 burpees (that include a six inch jump) in seven minutes. Wilkinson is also off to a good start with the very technically demanding Olympic lifts; he can snatch 130 pounds.

Its pretty good progress for someone who first walked into CrossFit Clifton Park in December 2012 and calls himself a pasty skinned English guy who used to be too embarrassed to take off his shirt.

But time have changed. Paleo is the best thing that could have happened to Wilkinson, his wife Kathleen wrote on Facebook. The kicker? Kathleen has now also become a CrossFitter.

Jason Ackerman, owner of Albany CrossFit and CrossFit Clifton Park, isnt surprised. We suspected we were on to something when over 50 of our members signed up for the challenge, but we were completely blown away by the results. Our members banded together to form a remarkable support system. David Wilkinsons success story is just one of many.

Wilkinson cites another factor: his coach, Jason Murphy. Jason was always there for me. I would often text and he always replied quickly, constantly encouraging me.

Albany CrossFit and CrossFit Clifton Park Paleo Challenge participants recorded improvements in diet, athletic performance and body composition and posted social media updates about their experiences.

As the winner, Wilkinson will receive a free one-year membership.But this is not really about winning or losing a competition," said Caleb Nelson, another coach at Albany CrossFit. Thats not what drove everyone. Its really about becoming your best self. Our participants ended up happier and healthier. Thats the real win.

The Albany CrossFit gym began modestly over five years ago in cramped and shared space with a handful of members. It expanded to a second location in Clifton Park two summers ago, then expanded its original location. Together, both gyms have over 500 members.

Why the success for a demanding diet and workout regimen?

"It's the community feeling and the caring," says Albany CrossFit and CrossFit Clifton Park owner Jason Ackerman. "We treat everyone who walks through the door like an athlete, regardless of their current fitness level, and our members are great about encouraging each other.

The Paleo diet was part of that journey. It consists mostly of fish, grass-fed pasture raised meats, vegetables, fruit, roots, and nuts. Grains, legumes, dairy products, salt, refined sugar, and processed oil are excluded.

CrossFit workouts focus on natural and functional movements and are different every day. Every workout is coached and the coaches scale the workouts to accommodate different ability levels. CrossFit uses barbells, kettlebells, pull up bars and many body weight movements including squats and pushups.

And it's a bit like the TV series "Cheers": everyone knows your name. Members strike up friendships, go out together and travel together. A few have even gotten married.

hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diets & Weight Loss Plans Announces Closer Inclusion of Paleo Diet in Their Prescription hCG Diet Plans

Seattle, WA (PRWEB) April 19, 2013

Diet Doc, provider of the extremely effective hCG diet has more closely integrated another successful nutrition plan, the Paleo diet, with the company's already successful hCG diet. Based on the idea that modern humans should consume foods that were consumed over 10,000 years ago, the Paleo diet provides dieters with a solid foundation upon which to ensure proper nutrition while dieting. The Paleo diet derives its name from the Paleolithic era, and bases its nutritional protocol on the foods that humans naturally consumed over 10,000 years ago. During the Paleolithic era, humans had a much smaller variety of available food; thus the Paleo diet recommends avoidance of grains, legumes, and refined sugars. By including the Paleo diet in its master nutrition plan, Diet Doc can ensure cohesion with, and optimal nutrition during a prescription hCG diet plan.

The hCG diet plans offered by Diet Doc allow for as many as 1250 calories consumed daily, making it much safer than outdated Simeons hCG diets. The company individually evaluates each patient, after which a master diet plan is developed depending on individual needs and weight loss goals. Once nutritional needs are established, the experts at Diet Doc custom design an hCG diet plan, which if deemed advantageous, can include the most successful aspects of other nutrition plans like those of the Paleo diet. Diet Doc includes as many as four different nutrition plans into one cohesive master hCG diet, ultimately capable of sustaining maximum patient health while producing fast weight loss. Most patients experience results of over one pound per day, making the Diet Doc diet among the most successful in the world.

The Ideology of the Paleo diet relies on the idea that the human digestive system is not capable of adequately processing and absorbing certain kinds of modern foods. Thus, the Paleo diet focuses on consuming foods that were available to humans during the Paleolithic era, including lean animal protein, nuts, fruits, and vegetables. The Paleo diet also recommends refraining from consuming modern farmed foods like grains, legumes, and refined sugars.

Diet Doc offers a free initial clinical evaluation for every new client, allowing their expert weight loss physicians to determine the individual characteristics that may be affecting weight gain. This individual approach allows for hCG diet plans to be designed around the patient's own body functions in order to maximize effectiveness. This master nutrition plan focuses on using the most effective methods available to produce fast weight loss. Often, individual factors such as allergies or even personal preference are considered before designing a personalized diet plan. The consistent outcomes are perfectly tailored diet plans to wholly coincide with each patient's individual health factors, resulting in the most effective fast weight loss available.

Diet Doc's master nutrition plan is fully intended to assure safety, reliability, and effectiveness to patients seeking fast weight loss with a prescription hCG diet plan, most boasting an average weight loss of over one pound per day. Available nationwide, Diet Doc offers this comprehensive diet plan, now including the popular Paleo diet to patients across the country via the national Telemedicine system. No longer is healthcare limited to a doctor's office. With Telemedicine, even those whose location makes receiving the best possible healthcare difficult, can consult with expert weight loss physicians, as simply as making a telephone call or videoconferencing on Skype. Patients around the country can now benefit from the most advanced weight loss system available, with the ease of making a telephone call.

hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet & Weight Loss Plans Now Include the Widely Popular and Effective Paleo Diet

Houston, TX (PRWEB) April 30, 2013

Diet Doc, the nations leading comprehensive medical diet provider that combines the use of prescription hCG diet with personalized diet plans to help patients achieve their best weight loss, has now added the extremely effective Paleo diet to their uniquely designed diet plans. The Paleo diet has been called the worlds healthiest diet and is based upon the belief that the optimal diet is one that the human body is genetically adapted to. Following customized Diet Doc's hCG diet plans, including education on the Paleo diet, allows patients to reach their best weight loss goals while learning how to eat healthy and make healthier lifestyle choices.

The Paleo diet imitates the human diet from before the Agricultural Revolution. The diet is rich in fresh fruit, vegetables, lean meats and seafood that are packed with nutrients the body needs to function while eliminating foods high in refined sugar and grain, salt and trans fat that have been found to cause weight gain and many other health related diseases. It is common knowledge that the best weight loss is achieved by burning more calories than the body takes in and the Paleo diet believes that the best way to accomplish this without feeling hungry and while maintaining energy is to consume a high-protein, high-fruit and vegetable diet. Clinical trials have determined that diet plans such as the Paleo diet are more effective in promoting the best weight loss and maintaining that weight reduction than low-fat, high-carbohydrate diets. The Paleo diet has been found to reduce the risk of heart disease and diabetes, increase energy, improve mental clarity, promote a longer lifespan, promote a healthier life, and most importantly, aid overweight or obese patients in achieving their best weight loss. By combining prescription hCG with Diet Doc diet plans designed around the popular Paleo diet, patients can anticipate reaching their best weight loss while embarking on a healthier, more active lifestyle.

Diet Doc offers clients a free initial evaluation so that an expert physician can determine the patients specific health characteristics that may be affecting weight and the inability to achieve the best weight loss. This individual approach to weight reduction allows Diet Doc nutritionists the opportunity to create the most effective diet plans designed around the patients specific body functions. Nutritionists then take the most efficient portions of popular diets, such as the Paleo diet, to build diet plans tailored specifically for each patient. To ensure that patients succeed in achieving their best weight loss, clients have unlimited access to Diet Doc physicians, nurses and nutritionists six days per week through the national telemedicine system. Diet Docs ultimate goal is to guide patients toward their best weight loss while providing education on healthy eating habits to secure a healthier, happier future.

Paleo Cookbooks Review - What is Nikki Young Serving Up For Summer 2013?

(PRWEB) May 15, 2013

Fat Loss Reviews just released a review on Nikki Young's hot new e-book collection, The Paleo Cookbooks.

"Because of the trending popularity of 'paleo' nutritional habits, I couldn't resist adding Nikki's cookbooks to my list of fat loss reviews," notes editor Dagny Galt, adding, "She has been getting quite a bit of attention in the paleo diet community."

Paleolithic ("Paleo") diets aim to provide nutrition to the body in the manner of nature - that is, the way people ate before the age of man-made, processed foods. It is also called the "caveman" diet.

Here's how Nikki Young describes the concept of Paleo nutrition: "By eating foods provided by Mother Nature foods eaten by our hunter-gatherer ancestors that are specifically for the human digestive system you will begin to experience wonderful, natural and lasting positive improvements to your health."

Primal Burn Weight Loss System Implements Paleo Philosophy and More; FatLossReviews.net Releases Review

(PRWEB) May 18, 2013

Emphasizes Ken, creator of Primal Burn, "In truth, the key to eliminating fat from your body lies in controlling your hormones by using specific foods at specific times and limiting your exercise. Actually, the most important tip to getting a strong, sexy, healthy body is getting more rest."

The scientific principle on which Primal Burn is based, called Primal Lifestyle Pattern Response, focuses on the release a specific hormone that restores youthful physiology to the body. Specifically, Human Growth Hormone (HGH) release is key for developing and sustaining lean muscle mass, while using body fat as fuel for energy. Ken focuses on nutrition, exercise, and sleep habits which regulate HGH for optimal body balance and health, including fat loss.

Paraphrasing Ken, editor Dagny Galt notes, "Because of the well-documented medical fact that when your insulin is high your body stores fat, there are certain foods that should be avoided at all costs because of their effect on insulin levels. Ironically, these foods are often prescribed by the health food industry. Conversely, when insulin levels are low your body burns fat for fuel. Stated differently, the body uses carbohydrates (ie, sugars) for energy before it uses fats, so it is thereby critical to keep blood sugar levels low in order to force your body to use the fats you consume for fuel. Summarily, eating the wrong foods is an absolute no-no, and Primal Burn seeks to set the record straight."

Continues Dagny, You will want to hear Kens story very relatable in some ways to many, many people who have been desperate for so long to lose weight.

So there it is. Ken tells a compelling story in his full Primal Burn video. It's worth a view.
