The Primal Kitchen PodcastEpisode #41: Listener Questions and Answers with Mark SissonFirst up, Mark details his revised stance on alcohol for the Primal Blueprint.

Next, Mark answers some questions about how the Primal approach to eating can help repair unhealthy emotional and psychological attachments to food. Then, he addresse...

Modern elite athletes have different goals than our hunter-gatherer ancestors. Their training loads are higher and their physical activity is contrived and somewhat artificial. But for the most part, elite athletes are working with the same metabolic and neuromuscular machinery as Grok. The activities and movement patterns that benefited and shaped the evolution and performance of our hunter-gatherer ancestors should thus prove useful for contemporary humans seeking optimal physical performance.

Mark's detailed take on this oft-pondered continuum is to avoid chronic training patterns first and foremost; evaluate your carb intake decisions based on whether you carry excess body fat; adopt an intuitive approach where your intake might fluctuate based on your workout regimens, and finish workouts refreshed and energized instead of craving sugar intensely.
