What do you do before your workout to get motivated and energized?
I don't! this is the time my "excuse center" is working overtime! Sometimes though, cruising the videos of CrossFit.com makes me feel like an animal!

What are your secrets for making healthy food taste great?
Just eat it, food doesn't have to be "fun" every meal. Just eat the healthy stuff even if you don't like it. You will grow to love it eventually.
- Updated Sep 28, 2008 1:29am

Where do you find healthy recipes to try?
Just Google Paleo diet there is a plethora of information out there.

Yeah both bodyweight and lifting weight are going up. Granted I'm not watching my diet. I had 2 klondike bars the other night for dessert. But my strength hasn't increase this much since I first started lifting.

just an idea, dont use the rings for your abs just hang from the bar as if you were going to do ching ups, keep straight legged and it'll kill your abs, plus on the way back down it will add for a good stretch less strain on the back and shoulders more foccused on your abs good luck, Corwin

I definitely think you can do it in a 6 month period. March would definitely be cutting it close, but I'm sure you'll see some huge gains come March anyways.
