Eat right - play harder!

I am currently working with Dr. Horwitz, a chiropractor who has not only shown me so much in the world of injury care and sports performance, but health development and maintenance as well.  He introduced me to the "Paleo Lifestyle" by Dr. Robb Wolf - which goes back to the way our ancestors used to eat.  No more refined and processed foods!

Here's his link - explains What is the paleo diet?

And see what happened after 30 days! LOOOK

Don't Let this happen to you!

Here is a link I found to a presentation done by the head strength and conditioning coach at American University.  All about ACL injury prevention - field hockey one of the top sports for highest occurrence of ACL injury.  It really can be career ending!  Don't let injury be the reason why you can't play!!
