The missing piece
Could your nutrition be the missing piece? For many of you, you have your training down, you come to us 3 to 5 times a week, but the missing piece is your nutrition.
CrossFit’s recommendation has always been, to eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch, and no sugar. All while keeping intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat.
Those two sentences capture a nutritional approach that, when it’s applied with our training, yields incredible health and fitness. By combining the potent training stimulus of constantly varied functional movements executed at high intensity with a sound diet of whole, unprocessed foods eaten in the proper amounts, the results are nothing short of life changing.
CrossFit suggests that in order to truly optimize health and fitness, you have to pay attention to what you eat and how much you eat. That starts with choosing high-quality, unprocessed foods and then to ideally weigh, measure, and record your intake, and doing that for at least 30 days. At the end of the first 30 days, you should assess your results — i.e., How are your health markers such as body composition, resting heart rate, and blood pressure (among others)? How are your workout scores trending? How do you feel? If needed, you can then adjust what and how much you are eating for best results.
What you put in your body needs to support what you do with your body.
If the whole nutrition thing seems to overwhelming lets start smaller, start with high-quality, unprocessed foods, and pay attention to amounts.
