CrossFit Mean Streets is a gym operated by Competitors. We compete in the sport of fitness and are ready to do the unknown and the unknowable full time. We train our athletes in the gym the same way. We want our people capable of all tasks this world has to offer. This is a gym made for people who want to be good at everything and make no excuses about it.

World-Class Fitness in 100 Words:

■ Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds,
some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep
intake to levels that will support exercise but
not body fat.

■ Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean,
squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly,
master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups,
dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to
handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds.
Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast.

■ Five or six days per week mix these elements
in as many combinations and patterns
as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy.
Keep workouts short and intense.

■ Regularly learn and play new sports.

Cheap Paleo Finds

caveman cooking e1343869129112 Cheap Paleo Finds

I get asked all the time: “What if you can’t afford grassfed meat? What do you tell people then?”. Well,… I usually don’t have an answer for those who “can’t”.

We have the power to do whatever we want. Being able to eat the right food should not be something that challenges you. There is always a way, with everything in life.

So for those of you who aren’t eating grassfed because of price, Josh H. was nice to compile a list:

Here are Josh’s cheapskate Paleo finds:

Trader Joe’s:

Kerrygold Grass-Fed Irish Butter $2.99/8oz
Grass-Fed 85/15 Ground Chuck $6.49/lb
Adkins Ranch Grass-Fed Lamb Chops $11.49/lb
Applegate Farms “Great Organic” Uncured Grass-Fed Hot Dogs $3.99/12oz
(Note that Applegate farms makes “Organic” and “Great Organic”, only the latter are grass-fed.)
Wild Ahi Tuna (not grass-fed, obviously, but Paleo) $14.99/lb
Extra Virgin Coconut Oil (forget price, but relatively cheap).

Fresh and Easy
