The Performance Nutrition Experience

Tonight I attended Coach Andrews orientation session at Canyon Crossfit for the 60 day challenge which they are calling the Performance Nutrition Experience. The challenge will have three components Athletic Performance, Body Composition and lastly and essay on how the 60 day experience impacted us. Besides the fact that there is a $500.00 prize to the winner and I like to win I am at point that I want to take my fitness to the next level.

I will be using this blog to share my experience of this challenge, to share about my crossfit fitness journey, and anything else that might be fun along the way.

Tomorrow the challenge begins. We will be using Whole 30 Food program, essentially clean eating. No Processed foods, no sugars, no alcohol, no grains, no dairy. Lots and lots of meats, veggies and fruits. For the Athletic Performance portion we have a Baseline WOD to perform and we will perform it again at the end of the 60 days to document our improvement. Additionally we will be tracking our PR's on our daily WOD's and I have set a goal to get my first muscle up so I will be doing extra work to make that happen

Lastly in the body composition category we will have the typical before and after pics so I will have to take my pictures tomorrow as well. Additionally they will be looking at body fat percentage. Today I took mine and it was 18.9%, my goal for this challenge is to get my body fat % down to 15% this will require me to lose about 12 pounds of fat, OUCH

I am very excited to begin this challenge, I am looking forward to seeing all my friends at Canyon Crossfit challenge themselves and encourage each other to reach their goals.
