Spring 2018 Lifestyle Challenge

The holidays are over.
The kids are back to school.
Its time for you to get back on track and moving with deliberate steps in the right direction.
Yes folks, that is right – its time for:

CrossFit For Glory’s Spring 2018 Lifestyle Challenge!

Wait…you thought this was a “nutrition challenge?”
Well, it is.
But we’re doing it differently this time around.
This time is better.
We’re including a few other vitally important lifestyle factors:

Nutrition

Movement

Recovery

Water

Sleep

And the best part – the scoring couldn’t be easier! (If you’ve been a part of past challenges, you know how happy this makes all of us – HA!)
Here’s why we are doing it this way – our programs at CrossFit For Glory are a holistic approach to health and wellness and this is a perfect way to see it in full effect. Having a happy, healthy, fulfilling life isn’t just about working out and eating right – there is far more that goes into it. Over the course of the next 4 weeks, we want you to establish healthy habits that are both practical and sustainable for the long term.

Is this right for you?

Ask yourself if you want to accomplish ANY of the following:

paleo table
Quickest route to seeing your abs? The Kitchen. Eat things that were once alive and didn’t sprout from a box.

You’d like to lose a few pounds

You wish to be leaner

You want to perform better in the 2018 Open

You’d like to put on some muscle

You want more energy

You want to sleep better

You’d like to lift more weight (PRs anyone?!)

You’re tired of having sore, achy joints

You’d like to be more productive during the day

You like shoes

You want to feel better about yourself

 
 

Mindfulness
Where the mind goes, the body follows. And vice versa. Allow yourself to recover. Just 15 minutes per day makes a HUGE difference!

Like we’ve done in the past, we will be doing a pre and post-challenge measurement on the InBody as well as a baseline workout before and retest after.
 
 
 
Ok, now for the nitty gritty:

  • We will be performing the InBody scan and baseline workout the week of 1/22-1/26. They can be done at any time the gym is open that is convenient for you.
  • Cost is $85 per person
  • Challenge kicks off on Monday, January 29th and will culminate on the first Open workout – Saturday February 24th
  • Points per category are either 0 or 1…thats it!
    • Nutrition – get 1 point per meal (daily max of 3) for eating food that was once alive and didn’t come out of a box
    • Movement – get 1 point (daily max of 1) for logging at least 30min of physical activity. This can be achieved by coming to class or doing something on your own
    • Recovery – get 1 point (daily max of 1) for logging at least 15min of bettering your body – this can be mobility work like ROMWOD, mindset work like meditation, reading of non-fiction (self improvement or daily devotional for instance)
    • Water – get 1 point (daily max of 1) for drinking enough water – at least 1/2 your bodyweight in ounces.
    • Sleep – get 1 point for sleeping (daily max of 1) 7 or more hours per night
