Carb Fueling vs. Fat Fueling on Paleo…

This question is from Ajay:

“I practice Jiu Jitsu with Gracie Barra four days a week. I recently started very strict paleo. I’m having trouble finding the right amount of foods to eat the right ones to fuel that workout (2.5 to 3 hours a day, four days a week). I love the way my body is working for me now and my goal is to shred about ten more pounds or so but the lack of fuel for my fights is getting discouraging. I’m not eating fruit in great amounts b/c of the sugars, only half an apple b4 and the other half at the end to replenish glycogen. about 2oz of nuts a day. I need advice, this thing is rad but hard to figure out. Great work on getting some jitsu on the blog. Geeyah, Parabens!”

Thanks again for the question, Ajay!
