Win the Hunger Games and Strength Day
Ever been caught with no grub, and you’re STARVING??? I have, many times. One way I try to keep myself out of trouble (i.e., making poor food choices because I’m hungry) is to have SOMETHING as my go-to snack that I have with me all the time. And this recipe for Paleo Beef Jerky is a sure winner!
That begin said of course, if you can have a real meal with real, unprocessed and wholesome foods from the meat, fat and veggies/fruits categories, that’s probably a better way to fuel your body, but when you’re caught in a tight spot and have no other choices, this little snack sure can tide you over and help you win the hunger games!

Tuesday’s Workout
High Bar Back Squat – Work up to 75-85% of your 1 RM*, then perform 5 sets of 5 reps at that weight – rest 1 minute between sets
Shoulder Press – Work up to 75-85% of your 1 RM*, then perform 5 sets of 5 reps at that weight – rest 1 minute between sets
*Weight should be enough that the last rep of 5 is difficult each time, and REALLY hard to complete for the last set. If you were here last week and were able to complete all 5 reps of all 5 sets with no difficulty, add 5-10# for your Back Squat, and 2.5-5# to your Shoulder Press. (See 1/8 for previous 1 RM)
