1. The Wholesome Table is Simply Awesome – 10/10
The food is always good and my children love their drinks.
I am also a fan of the owners Juan and Bianca Elizalde. They rock. You will not find white sugar or artery clogging vegetable oils on their premises. Why? Because they genuinely care for their customers and use coconut oil.
Love it that there is now a branch near us at Capitol Commons (as well as BGC and Salcedo Village).

Ten Easy Ways to Improve Your Running Performance. Guest post from elite Primed runner Andy Pope.
1. Train, don’t just run.
It’s fun to run just to get out but dedicate one or two sessions a week to speed work, hill work or fartleks. Just adding extra effort to parts of your runs makes a big difference.
2. Join a club.
The social part of being a member of a Club is enjoyable, you are more likely to race (and therefore set goals) and a bit of peer pressure will help push you along.
3. Read.
There is a ton of good information in articles and books. Books are inspirational and thought provoking, a couple to get you started – Running with the Kenyans by Adharanand Finn or Running Beyond the Marathon by Grahak Cunningham.
4. Go Primed for your Life.
Control your weight by what you eat: Lots of veg, grass fed meats, fish, healthy fats, berries, nuts, good whole foods; cook in coconut oil.
5. Eat less of….
Any carbs – especially pasta, noodles, rice and bread. Any sugar (including most fruit). Processed food. Any fast food. Don’t use any type of vegetable oil.
6. Hydrate with….
Natural or Homemade drinks and gels (water, calamansi juice, buko juice…). Learn to hydrate as and when you need to; don’t over hydrate.
7. Distance isn’t everything.
The trend to go ultra can make a marathon or ultra-marathon seem like what you “have to” do. Enjoy shorter distances and the sense of achievement that comes with any race and even if you are training for a long race you don’t have to rack up dozens of miles each week – quality not quantity.
8. Eccentric Core.
Do a core workout once a week. This should be eccentric exercises and shouldn’t take more than half an hour.
9. Rest and sleep.
Don’t underestimate the power of rest and sleep. To be still running in the couple of days lead up to a race or competition is quite simply madness… enjoy the days off… and the extra power and energy you will derive from it. Try and sleep for at least seven hours a night.
10. Cross Train and/or add variety.
Break it up. Swim; Bike; Yoga; Gym… or just run somewhere new.
Thanks for the Great Hints Andy Pope.

Here are the Top 5 articles this year with a special thanks to cardiologist and New York Times best selling author Dr. William Davis for sharing many articles on his Wheat Belly facebook page.
1. Wheat baby! The Painful Condition of Accidentally Eating Grains/Gluten Once Off It
Thanks also to my beautiful and talented tummy model.
Once you give up grains/wheat you CANNOT go back because once the “poison” is out of your system your body will react badly if this “poison” is reintroduced. This is surely proof positive that these grains are “poison” to your system.
2. Cheat in your Triathlon and you are cheating more than just yourself

Ronald rocks. He is a great family man with a big heart. I am so proud that the Primed Lifestyle is helping make this top man’s heart stronger. Oh, his brain too. Doubly proud that because of Ronald’s great decision his family is also getting healthier too.
I had a great lunch at The Wholesome Table with Trimac teammates Ron, Chloe and Emerson
We ate no bread but kept the butter to add into our food. Of course we had real food and not fake food like bread, pasta, noodles and other sugar cheap carbs.
Here is a 12 Point Summary of What Ron Said
1. Ron researched Primed LCHF after sustaining an injury training for triathlons because he wanted to ensure he would not gain excess weight. Ron had previously mistakenly believed that he had to exercise a lot to maintain a healthy weight but was soon to learn differently.
Here is some of the delicious real food Ron ate to lose weight and regain health.
2. Ron found his food to be very filling and satisfying. Hence, he was not hungry at all and ate less.
3. Ron’s Acid Reflux disappeared. Cool.
4. Ron lost weight despite not exercising at all.
5. Ron’s inspiration was his beautiful family. He is pictured here with his beautiful wife Romina. Ron started his Primed/LCHF journey in March 2015.
