Registration DeadLine! MARCH 3rd
No matter how much you work out, if you don’t dial in your nutrition, you won’t see the full benefits from the hard work you’re putting in. Many CrossFit gyms have held Paleo and Zone Challenges to help their members change their nutrition habits, and we’re going to hold our first Challenge beginning on March 6th.
We’re going to keep it simple, and encourage everyone to take part. Here are the basic details:
Starting out:
What you have to do:
What we’ll do for you:
Paul, Caleb and I vote to determine the Winners (1 male, 1 female)
What’s in it for you?
About the Photos:
All participants will take their photos in the CFSC restroom area. We have the same lighting for both the first and last shot. All participants will come in one at a time. There will be no spectators. You will change in the restroom.

- Weight
- Measurements (abdomen, waist, neckline and wrist)
- Body fat % (measured on the scale or by calculation). Here’s one of many online calculators
