I feel a heck of a lot better than I have in an awful long time. It now feels weird to wear normal shoes. If I'm not prancing around barefoot or in my Vibrams, I feel all alien. ALIEN!
They are holding up very well, although a LITTLE bit of bonding has come loose on the left foot. But I'll just glue that back together again.
I've used them for the gym, cycling, wandering around, martial arts, skipping, conditioning AND EVEN RUNNING of all things. My feet occasionally feel sore, and my calf muscles have sent me a letter apologising for anything they might have done to offend me.
This is likely due to the fact that I'm training pretty much every day again, in one way or another, after a depressing little lull. It's back in bitches XD
Looking at the other side of the spectrum towards diet, I have suddenly become influenced with the Paleo way of looking at things. Except I'm not examining cave man drawings to see what I should have for supper, I've just taken a few of their ideals and it seems to be working lovely.
For anyone new to the idea of Paleo diet, I'll do an exceptionally quick summary. It's basically eating what our great ancestors would have eaten thousands of years ago, before agriculture.
Try and imagine a diet built on hunting and gathering, and you have the Paleo.
Instead, I've taken this approach and adapted it to myself a tad. That doesn't mean I'm running around clobbering cats and squirrals, but I am approaching the super market in the sense of everything I need can be found in a couple of aisles.
If it's in the fresh produce, raw meats and fish aisle, then it's ending up on my plate. Couple that with oats, seeds, nuts and whole milk and you have a winning combination.
In other words, no more breads, processed monosudobudoglutaminamate-E9000, refined sugars, packaged, boxed, tinned or crud.
To say the least....
It is FANTASTIC!
