Many of us (thanks to Tiff) will be having a Paleo-friendly day, below is a recipe for Paleo cranberry sauce that will go nicely with your beautiful free range organic turkey.

There are 168 hours in a week.  At most, you might spend 6 of those hours working out at the studio… That leaves 162 hours left for you to make decisions about your health.  What are you fueling your engine with?  Are you making conscious nutrition choices or basing food selection off of convenience?  80% of the results that you will see come from nutrition, so it will take more than just coming in for one hour a day for your workouts to be FIT.  Everyone has made great progress within the last year at the studio, making amazing athletic gains and achieving things they never thought possible- it is now time to dial in and add the nutrition component to our lives.
