KettleBell Olympia

A Better Body With Bells!™

Hey people!  You all had to listen to my Paleo-diet ramblings over the past couple years, so I though some might be interested in this.  This was the first event of it’s kind and seems to have been very productive.  Scientists, Journalists, and exercise professionals, all with an evolutionary perspective!  I guess this confirms how much of a nerd I’ve become over this stuff:)

They should have videos of the presentations up soon.  Check it out-Jake
