CrossFit Bath Paleo Challenge

CrossFit Bath 7 Week Paleo Challenge

Now we have a strong core of members, it’s time to get fully on board with your nutrition! As if your own personal motivation is not enough to committing yourself to sound nutrition in 2010, we are hosting our first CrossFit Bath Seven Week Paleo challenge!

Those who wish to participate will have the additional motivation of your fellow CrossFitters as well as the motivation to win some wicked prizes!!

Prizes will be awarded to 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners for the most stunning physique transformation.  This contest is not based on weight loss, so even if you don’t have a whole lot of weight to lose you can still lean out and have a great chance to win! 

What is Paleo?
If you’ve been training with us for any period of time and don’t know the answer to this then we have some problems!  Most of you know that Paleo = meat, veggies, nuts, seeds, some fruit, little starch and NO SUGAR! Basically removing all the processed bread, rice, and pasta-like items from your daily plate (and any and all sugar/artificial sweetener infused beverages) and eating clean for 7 weeks.  To be successful you will empty your cupboards of all such processed junk so as not to be surrounded by it.  You will keep a detailed food log and bring it in for us to review periodically.  You will try to reduce your stress and sleep more.  All of these lifestyle factors influence whether or not one is lean.
