Today starts Day 1 of our Paleo Challenge!  If you did not get measured last week, YOU MUST do it today.  You also must come in and do the WOD today which is FGB.

You may only participate if you did not enter in our first challenge.  The cost to enter is $10.  Winners will split the pot.

The Paleo Challenge is NOT a weight loss challenge.  It is a challenge for you to lose fat, gain muscle, look better and feel better.  Because you will be eating so clean and healthy you will potentially lose body fat.  But I DO NOT want you to focus on that alone.  You should lose the scale and focus on how you feel and how your clothes fit.

During the challenge you will eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar.  Keep in take to levels that will support exercise but not body fat.  Drink lots of water.  Take fish oil and get plenty of sleep.  And workout!

If you are not a good cook or don’t have time for it, be sure to check out Cross Cuisines!  Paleo friendly, affordably meals that you pick out and are delivered to CFS!  How can you beat that?  Click the Cross Cuisine logo on the right and start ordering!
