With the New Year just around the corner, here at CrossFit Southie we are planning a Paleo Challenge to help get you off on the right foot in 2011.  The Paleo diet is very popular and effective amongst CrossFitters. If you want to become leaner, stronger, and faster the Paleo Diet is for you. You can learn all about Paleo at CrossFit Southie this Saturday, December 11th at 11am. At this time, we will be discussing the Paleo diet, the hormonal effect of food and the format for the Paleo Challenge.

The Paleo Challenge will begin on Saturday, January 8th and continue for 12 weeks. During the 12 weeks the challenge is to do your best to consume only meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. We ask that you record your food intake daily, or at the very least your cheats!!   On January 8th we will be recording a series of baseline measurements.  These measurements will be taken again at the conclusion of the challenge.  There will also be a point system each week during the challenge that awards points for exercise, mobility, etc.. and subtracts points for cheats.  Prizes will be awarded to the participants that most adhere to the program and experience the best results.  Further details will be discussed during the lecture on December, 11th.  We hope to see you all on Saturday.
