Carb Shock Notes from Kiefer’s Insulin Timing Tricks Webinar Part 1

Posted on October 20, 2014June 25, 2015 by BJJ Caveman

A few days after the successful launch of Kiefer’s Carb Shock supplement, he held a live, online webinar on insulin timing tricks followed by a Q&A session. In the webinar he discusses the optimal ways to use Carb Shock with either Carb Nite AND Carb Back-Loading, and provides a lot of clues as to what the upcoming Carb Back-Loading 2.0 will contain.

Here are the notes from the secret Q&A Body IO Podcast he released prior to the launch of Carb Shock:

The BJJ Caveman’s Random Reading: October 19, 2014

Posted on October 19, 2014October 20, 2014 by BJJ Caveman

This is a view from within one of the cavernous beer tents in Oktoberfest at Munich from my recent trip to Germany. They had some of the best tasting rotisserie chicken and beer that I’ve had… This was taken at around 10 am, and you can see that it’s pretty full. As the day progresses and gets later and later these tents really pack up… but no one seems to mind because the beer is flowing!

This episode of South Park has been making the rounds in the paleo-sphere, and I have to say I laughed out loud a couple times, especially when they go into the perils of gluten… and what it can make fly…
Another article about Lebron’s diet to go with the many others out there, only this one has pictures of his food!

Carb Shock Q&A Notes from Kiefer’s Secret Body IO Podcast

Posted on October 17, 2014June 25, 2015 by BJJ Caveman

In the past few weeks, Kiefer has been ramping up his marketing for his new Carb Shock supplement, first with a release of a special Supplement Blackbook (which I plan on reviewing later) followed by this special Body IO episode where he answers some of the questions generated by the Supplement Blackbook.

These were only released to Kiefer’s e-mail subscribers.

I just want to clarify that this is NOT the special Q&A webinar that he just had last night on October 16, 2014, one day after the official release of Carb Shock. … Read More

After a while I decided, why not just try to print one myself! I was really pleased with how this turned out.

In an effort to stay up to date with all of Kiefer’s prolific work, here is the next series of notes I’ve taken. This is the fourth edition of my Kiefer notes. Again some of these are from his own site, Body.io and some from when he appears as a guest on other podcasts.

The BJJ Caveman’s Random Reading: October 7, 2014

Posted on October 7, 2014October 9, 2014 by BJJ Caveman

The BJJ Cavewife and I just got back from a trip through Germany and Croatia that included a visit to Oktoberfest and Dubrovnik (pictured above). Needless to say, as with all of our recent trips, thoughts of macros and nutrition and nutrient timing all went out the window. If I saw something on the street or in a store or on a menu that piqued my interest, I went for it… Now we’re glad to be home and ready to start eating healthily again.

NPR wrote an enlightening piece about synthetic biology which is the next step beyond GMO, in which they take genes from a plant and introduce them into a yeast culture to produce products more efficiently than nature.
