Diet and Exercise

Most of y'all know that exercise by itself is not enough. There has to be a change in eating habits. CrossFit has a simple diet, but it is not easy to keep up. The diet of lean meats, nuts and seeds, vegetables, some fruit, little starch and no sugar (processed). I know that last one is pretty tough. The easiest thing is to start small. Maybe you start with breakfast and cut out the sugar. I know, I know, most everything has sugar added or contains fructose. Try eggs, sauteed spinach or some other veggies. The bowl of cereal is just not going to do it for you.

Like we said, CrossFit is high intensity for a short period of time. We are mainly working out anaerobically, not aerobically. You will get your metabolic conditioning through anaerobic activity. To get the most out of these types of workouts you have to be getting after it.

Another thing I want to say is that we did not weigh you for a reason. We don't much like the scale. The best indicator is the way your clothes start feel and how good you feel.
