Today’s WOD:
Pick one of the WOD’s from Yesterday’s 3 choices!!! I hope you picked the one you like least!!
Fitness/Nutrition Challenge - Round 2!
We had some amazing results from the last round!!! I was so thrilled! I can think of at least 8-10 people that have made major changes to their fitness and appearance! Big results!! Over the next week or so we will be posting some of the “good, bad, and ugly” that some of the first round participants experienced over their 8 weeks! And since the trainers are taking part this time around we will be making copies of our food journals for you to get some guidance from if you like - along with some amazing recipes Cherry has searched out….and hopefully some of the other participants will share their favorite dishes too!
For those planning to take part, you will do the following:
Commit to a specific number of workouts per week
Commit to either Paleo or Zone lifestyle
Set one goal relating to something that you struggle with and work towards that goal every time you come to train
We will take measurements and weights
We will do some benchmark tests during the week - mile run, push-up, pull-up, deadlift, clean & jerk, etc. to compare at the end of the challenge
You will turn in a food journal at the end of each week for review - the food journal will include the following:
EXACTLY what you ate - don’t write “turkey sandwich”. Write: 2 ounces of turkey, 1 ounce of cheese, 1 small sliced tomato, lettuce leaf, 1tbs. mayo and mustard, 2 slices whole wheat bread.
EXACTLY what you drank - I tend to just put a strike at the top of the page for every 10 oz of water that I drink for simplicity. other drinks need to be listed specifically.
How much sleep you had the night before
What your workout was for the day
How you felt that day - this can be simple (great, good, shitty, etc) or you can write all you want. This is all about you!
We will spend this next week discussing each of these things and answering all of your questions and making sure everyone is on track. The official challenge will start Monday and last 8 weeks.
For more information, please review the following and we will also discuss in more detail during the week:

When you are ready to commit you will write the following:
Name, workout commitment (days per week), zone/paleo commitment, specific goal.
I hope that everyone makes the choice to participate and make some major lifestyle changes!!
100 burpees: 6:37. Tweaked my shoulder last week, so I’m running on my own most of this week to give my shoulder a break (and trying not to sound like Matt Mitrione!)
Jason - Just saw this posting! I was getting ready to call you! No kidding about Mitrione! Total joke….
Keep me posted on the shoulder!
