Would non-grass fed beef count towards the 20 of the 80/20? What about non-free range chicken or whatever?

Post a vid of your form (from the side). We can critique
Ok, I'll ask someone to film my form next workoutday which will probably be tomorrow or sunday.
And by kinesist I mean a physical therapist. Must've forgotten to put the word in english :p

Therefore I just bought The Paleo Solution and the associated cookbook. Not looking forward to spending like 700 euro's a month on food at all, though. Oh well, I'll read the book and come up with a decision.
Is Paleo something where taking pasta/milk for a day is a very big deal, or is half paleoing already a big plus to your health and fitness?
Usually if you want to see decent results you want to do at least 80/20 rule.... major results tend to be closer to 95/5 or full
Depending on how poorly you were eating before of course
Think my food is like 90-95% paleo, but i drink a lot of beer so...

80 side. It's real food still.
But obviously it's better if you get better quality..

Yeah, PTs who don't like deadlifts don't know what they're talking about...
I'm thinking about buying some oly shoes, anyone got recommendations? I know they can be quite expensive, and I don't know if I want to purchase the top quality brands/lines since I'm still relatively new at this.
Please include websites and sizing information if possible.
Is the post workout drink (within 30mins) really necessary? Because i dont have dinner after my workout because i workout pretty late(posted this before). And i had a realisation that if i worked out earlier i would be able to have dinner + my protein drink so i would get more carbs/protein for muscle repair/growth. I cant have my protein drink before my dinner because of terrible stomach and digestion problems.
Tldr- Should i workout earlier to be able to eat dinner(most of the time -meat) and delay my protein drink for later so i will get more carbs/protein? OR should i workout later and just stick with drinking my milk/protein straight after my workout but not have any dinner so i wont get extra stuff. Thinking of buying some whey powder but not sure what to look for. Suggestions? Cheers

flat soles are good for back squats and DLs, whereas heeled oly shoes are good for overhead squats, front squats, cleans and snatches.
Starting the monday before this one, i weighed something like 210-215[variable on hydration], been doing cardio ranging from 145 bpm to 170 for 1 hour each day, which is apparently 75%-85% and eating between 1600-1800 calories a day, with less then 20% carbs [occasional whole wheat sandwitch]
Weighed between 205-210 6feet tall today :D so approximately 5 pounds in 12 days and i feel great. Did my first squats today, bar plus 2 45's setof10, then extra 10 on each side set of 8.
When i started i was doing weight reps all kinds of workouts of 14/12 but now decided to do 10/8 to exhaustion. Body weight exercises like pushups i do 16/14/12. When i hit 200 im gonna start trying to do pullups, they scare me.
1/2 times going to the gym i take a caffinene pill sometimes 100mg sometimes 200 to keep body guessing
Everything feels great, first time im really motivated in life for regaining my highschool physic. Anyone have tricks for falling asleep? When i go late sometimes and dont take my caffinene i have so much energy and so much blood rushing i feel like its very difficult to fall asleep so i take a few wisks of hard liquor to help me melt. Anyone tips on falling asleep?
