Improved athleticity!

Have you ever felt like you've tried all you can (working out, practicing, etc.) to get better at sports but you just can't seem to?

I'm not talking about coordination here - I'm actually a very coordinated person - stamina, endurance and clarity of thought have always been my problems.

So let me tell you how the Paleo Diet has helped these things for me. My friends and I have been playing basketball a lot to take advantage of the beautiful summer weather here in Colorado. And I've noticed a distinct difference in how I feel when I play sports now as opposed to before I started the Paleo Diet (I've been on it for at least 1 month now). My body feels healthier, my mind is clearer, I'm not so bloated-like in my stomach area, and I have a lot more energy than I used to when playing our competitive basketball games. I never knew I could feel this good!!! I feel like I finally have a competitive edge and can play my best.

This is especially great timing because I am going to be trying out for a women's hockey team soon! It has been a lifelong dream of mine to play on a real hockey team and I am finally going to do it this summer. From the results I've seen thus far, I am confident that I can have a good tryout and give it my all if I stick to this diet!
