So for the details…

When does it start? How long does it last?

We are starting this challenge Wed, Feb 1. at 7pm along with the Grand Opening of the Paleo Cafe. It will last 6 weeks. That puts us finishing up about March 15, 2012 with a celebration ! Winners will be determined Saturday morning, March 17, 2012 at the PALEO PARTY!

How do I learn what to do?

I will host the NUTRITION SEMINAR this Saturday morning at 10:00 am following our morning wod. I will be discussing the basics of the challenge and getting everyone signed up! I will answer questions to, “What is Paleo” and “How!

In the meantime,educate yourself and if you have any questions in the process send them my way. We will discuss them on Saturday.

Click here for more great Paleo info! This site will give you a handful of easy to read articles.

What do I need to do to get sign up?

*Write your name down on the sign-up sheet in the gym.

*Show up to the seminar .

*Pay $10 to be contributed towards the “Winner’s Pot.”

*Have your picture taken.

Yes, I said it. PICTURES! Quit freaking out and just give me a minute to explain. The winners will be determined by before/after pictures. We will see which male and female leans out the most in 6 weeks and they will split the pot. The more people we have sign up, the greater potential for big winnings! I don’t care what you have to do, but get your CrossFit classmates involved! You suffer alongside each other during class, drag them along to participate in this challenge. I can only bug you guys so much. Start bugging each other to do this! Hold yourself accountable to a friend.

We will be taking front, back, and side pictures of the men and woman. These are confidential and will not be released. I will determine the top 5 male/females. Then, those top 5 people will determine the ultimate winners, one male and one female. Guys will take pictures with shirts off/shorts. Girls will take pictures in sports bra or other fitness type shirt/shorts. Be prepared to take pictures. This has been shown as the most successful way to do a Paleo Challenge with gyms across the world. It might take you out of your comfort zone, but don’t you do that everyday during our workouts anyway?

So, that’s it?

All I have to do is show up, pay my money, and take a few pictures? Yes, that is right. The only other REQUIREMENT is that you BLOG your meals every day for the entire 6 week challenge. Since you’re blogging your WOD, blog your MODs!!!

The bottom line is this, the participants that are very disciplined and stick with it 100% will be the winners. The pictures will prove it. It doesn’t matter where you are starting from because it is based on YOUR before picture. Everyone has the opportunity to lean out (for different people that might be lose weight, firm up, build muscle, etc) but your body WILL CHANGE!
