Do you know which vegetables are best to eat? There's no right or wrong answer as ALL vegetables are nutritional superstars. They are rich in vitamins, minerals, fiber, phytochemicals and antioxidants, and it’s best to eat a wide range of vegetables that cover a wide spectrum of colors—red, orange, yellow, green and purple. More colors equals more antioxidants, each one working to reduce inflammation, support detoxification pathways, and reduce your risk of cancer, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. But the very best vegetables are the ones that are in season. Choosing these vegetables is better for the planet (locally grown) and for your wallet (less expensive), and is more nutritious.The winter season is all about warm, dense, comforting foods that support your immune system. In the cold months, our bodies naturally crave heartier foods—soups, stews and chili. Incorporating winter vegetables into these dishes is easy and we recommend making large batches of whatever you are cooking so it can last you the whole week.

TOPFIT Daily Activities --- Jacksonville Forest Park Hike and Pullups
Since yesterday was a fairly high volume and intensity day, I reduced the intensity a bit today (pretty much kept the volume up though). I started with a 2 hr hike on the J-Ville Forest Park trails and followed that with a workout of weighted and bodyweight pullups (standard and with the suspension trainer).
