Just got back from a great time in NYC catching up a little at Al Kavadlo's book signing party for Pushing the Limits - a little while ago, Al had invited me to be a part of the book with an intense photoshoot taking place all over Manhattan - click here for some of that story (scroll down to 3rd question). Needless to say, getting to catch up with friends and watch Al sign a … [Read more...] about NYC for Al Kavadlo’s Book Signing Party and Some Beyond Organic Product Reviews

Taza Chocolate Mexicano Chipotle Chocolate Discs Organic 70% Cacao
My second recent trip to the greater Boston area included a second trip to the Taza chocolate factory. This incredible and delicious chocolate has a very unique almost "grainy" texture due to the fact that it is stone ground in a very interesting traditional Mexican way. The factory itself is housed in an old school warehouse in a fairly industrial area of Somerville. We … [Read more...] about Taza Chocolate Mexicano Chipotle Chocolate Discs Organic 70% Cacao

Stronger Grip Loadable Mace Product Review
Here's a very informal little video I just made today with 2 of my favorite SUPER BASIC mace exercises. For size reference, I'm 5'3" We love the Stronger Grip loadable mace "core club" with a 6" globe - the amount of fun it adds to our group circuits can't be denied. The first time I saw these maces was at the Super Human Training workshop with Bud Jeffries and Logan … [Read more...] about Stronger Grip Loadable Mace Product Review

Green & Black’s Organic Bittersweet Dark Chocolate Bar, Currant and Hazelnut
This bar has such a great balance to it—even though its only 60% cacao (I normally like things VERY VERY dark)—the crunch of the hazelnuts, and tangy currant bits work together incredibly well. Organic and Fair Trade. Definitely getting this again. … [Read more...] about Green & Black’s Organic Bittersweet Dark Chocolate Bar, Currant and Hazelnut
Best Standard French Whip – Light Design 8 Inch
I was looking for an alternative to a blender bottle to mix up some basic protein shakes - I don't use fruit in my shakes, so using a wire wisk is a good option. After being thwarted in efforts to purchase a blender bottle last night at Whole Foods, I decided - why not try and find a small wire whisk that will fit well into the tall glasses I already have. I really don't enjoy … [Read more...] about Best Standard French Whip – Light Design 8 Inch

Endangered Species Chocolate – Organic Health Dark Chocolate with Goldenberry and Lucuma
"What's lucuma?!" My friend asked while we were sharing this bar of chocolate today. Embarassingly I had to admit that I didn't know, but it was fun to watch her eyes bug out when I said I didn't know. Well - now we BOTH know, because inside the wrapper was more info about the included sundried lucuma powder in the chocolate as well as the goldenberries and some very … [Read more...] about Endangered Species Chocolate – Organic Health Dark Chocolate with Goldenberry and Lucuma
ChocoHigos Hand-dipped Dark Chocolate Figs
Sometimes dried figs are like hard rocks, testing the structural integrity of your teeth and dentalwork. Not so with these - the Spanish Pararero figs are unbelieveably soft and slightly chewy with thin skins I didn't even notice. Just enough to hold all the crunchy seeds inside really. The figs have the consistency of a very soft carmel which is further enhanced by the … [Read more...] about ChocoHigos Hand-dipped Dark Chocolate Figs
