How do I get started?

  • Get measured at the nutrition talk. We need waist measurements, estimated body fat %, and weight.
• Hit a benchmark WOD. You can complete your benchmark WOD on Monday, October 24th or during open gym hours.
• What do I eat?
• If you have never tried eating Paleo, start by eating protein (preferably meat) with every meal. Balance your meals, so each meal has protein, fat and carbohydrates. Begin to eliminate sugar and grains from your diet.
• If you eat a Paleo-ish diet and you have no problem not eating grains or sugar then lets try to cut out dairy, legumes and alcohol.
• If you have been Paleo for a while, start measuring your portions and aim towards achieving a Zone balance.

I am ready. Tell me how to win!
The winner will be determined EQUALLY by most increased performance (%) on the benchmark workout, largest decrease in weight, waist size and body fat %, AND most improved looks! CrossFit Queens coaches will choose pictures of a few athletes with the most improved looks. At the final Paleo brunch, challenge participants will rank pictures of these athletes.
