Be A Part Of GJ History

This coming Saturday, June 25, Gravity Janes will debut a new format for our Saturday morning schedule. Beginning at 8:30A on Saturdays, GJ coaches will lead a team competition featuring several challenges during which teams will compete against each other. You will be teamed with other members and vie for gym bragging rights and small prizes (mostly bragging rights).

Come and be a part of the new era in GJ workouts. Those that show up in the early weeks will have a lot of input into the development of this concept. And, best of all, this program is guaranteed to bring a new level of results from your workouts. Show up at the gym anytime after 8A every Saturday for a warm up, and the team events begin at 8:30A sharp.

More details about the new Jane Games are coming soon to the GJ Facebook page. If you haven't checked out the features of the GJ Facebook page, visit us at www.facebook.com/gravityjanes. There's lots of exclusive information about active events and the gym, and an on-going conversation with your fellow gym-mates.

Below is Mark Sisson's (Primal Blueprint) take on the new "My Plate" dietary guidelines that replace the old food pyramid:

"The slick graphic belies the same old story: “enjoy your food, but eat less,” the inability to say “protein” without “lean” preceding it, the insistence of “low and non-fat dairy,” heaping compulsory piles of grains (what is with our dear leaders’ obsessive grain fetish?). Instead of observing the growing number of obese men, women, kids, tots, and infants (!) and reevaluating the meat of their recommendations, the authorities just repackaged it. I wish I had more to say, but nothing’s really changed. I eagerly await the collective melt-off of the nation’s pounds and the diffusion of its calories into the atmosphere as folks “eat less, move more” in response to this groundbreaking new information."
