| Above: Love the intensity in this athlete's face! Actually, I'm sure my cousin is going to kick me in my butt for posting this, but I just had to! My cousin, Michon, came to workout with the morning class, today. This was her very first CrossFit WOD, but you wouldn't have known because she was great at everything. She currently dances for Treasure Island in Las Vegas! So, needless to say, she rocked at the Handstand Push-ups! Expect to see more of this tough girl during the Holiday break. Awesome work! |

Huffington Post article by Mark Hyman, MD: Gluten: What You Don't Know Might Kill You
Something you're eating may be killing you, and you probably don't even know it!
If you eat cheeseburgers or French fries all the time or drink six sodas a day, you likely know you are shortening your life. But eating a nice dark, crunchy slice of whole wheat bread--how could that be bad for you?
Well, bread contains gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, rye, spelt, kamut, and oats. It is hidden in pizza, pasta, bread, wraps, rolls, and most processed foods. Clearly, gluten is a staple of the American diet.
What most people don't know is that gluten can cause serious health complications for many. You may be at risk even if you don't have full blown celiac disease.
In today's blog I want to reveal the truth about gluten, explain the dangers, and provide you with a simple system that will help you determine whether or not gluten is a problem for you.
