The Science Behind
Paleo + Performance
How ancestral nutrition meets modern athletic demands to unlock your full performance potential
Explore Our ApproachPaleo Revolutionized for Athletes
Traditional paleo diets focus on eliminating processed foods and emphasizing whole, ancestral ingredients. While this foundation is sound, it doesn't account for the unique energy demands of high-intensity functional fitness training. Our sport-paleo approach bridges this gap.
CrossFit demands rapid energy production, sustained power output, and quick recovery between high-intensity intervals. This requires strategic macronutrient timing, adequate caloric intake for energy expenditure, and precise nutrient density to support tissue repair and adaptation.
Unlike standard paleo that may restrict certain food groups, our approach recognizes that athletes need comprehensive nutrition to perform at their peak while maintaining the clean eating principles of ancestral health.
The Performance Science
Research consistently shows that athletes following paleo-style diets experience improved body composition, enhanced insulin sensitivity, and better recovery markers. However, these benefits are magnified when nutrition is precisely matched to training demands.
Metabolic Flexibility: Paleo principles enhance the body's ability to switch between fuel sources, crucial for varied CrossFit workouts
Inflammation Control: Elimination of inflammatory processed foods reduces recovery time and joint stress
Hormonal Optimization: Stable blood sugar and nutrient timing support optimal testosterone and growth hormone production
Our approach synthesizes this research with practical application, ensuring every meal supports both immediate performance and long-term health adaptations.
Traditional Paleo vs Sport Paleo
Traditional Paleo
- ✗ Focuses primarily on food quality over quantity
- ✗ May limit carbohydrate intake regardless of activity level
- ✗ Doesn't account for training-induced energy demands
- ✗ Recovery nutrition often overlooked
Sport Paleo (Our Approach)
- ✓ Optimizes both food quality AND timing for performance
- ✓ Strategic carbohydrate periodization based on training phases
- ✓ Matches caloric intake to energy expenditure patterns
- ✓ Prioritizes recovery nutrition and adaptation support
Optimizing All Energy Systems
Immediate Energy (ATP-PC)
Short bursts of maximum effort rely on stored creatine phosphate. Our paleo approach ensures adequate protein intake for ATP regeneration and supports rapid recovery between sets.
Anaerobic Power
High-intensity intervals demand efficient carbohydrate metabolism. Sport-paleo timing of carbs around training ensures optimal glycogen availability while maintaining metabolic flexibility.
Aerobic Capacity
Extended workouts and active recovery benefit from enhanced fat oxidation. Our approach maintains the fat-adapted benefits of paleo while supporting sustained endurance.
Evidence-Based Results
Clinical Studies
Multiple peer-reviewed studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of paleo-style interventions in athletic populations. Athletes following modified paleo protocols show significant improvements in key performance indicators.
Body Composition: Average 8.3% reduction in body fat with maintained or improved lean mass over 12 weeks
Performance Markers: 15% improvement in VO2 max and 12% increase in strength gains compared to standard diets
Inflammatory Markers: 23% reduction in C-reactive protein and improved recovery rates
