ZONE NUTRITION CHALLENGE

Welcome to FourBarrel CrossFit’s Zone Nutrition Challenge. Over the next 6 weeks, you’ll learn to dial-in your nutrition, rest, and training frequency for your specific body size and training needs. We’ll take the guesswork out of nutrient balance and teach you the simple block system used by the Zone to calculate the proper macronutrient intake. Please read over the sections below and let a CFCF coach know if you have any questions.

Format

Teams of 2(Entry = $25/person)- Partners need to hold each other accountable.
Winning team receives $200.
Scoring will be based on compliance to the diet, training consistency, before and after photographs, and WOD performance (full scoring details below).
The challenge will be six weeks long, starting November 1st and ending December 13th.
We will hold two Zone seminars on 10/31 to go over the Zone Diet as well as the challenge (One during the Noon class, and the other during the 6:30pm class). **We’ve added an additional seminar – Thursday 11/1 at 6:30pm.**

Requirements

Sign the commitment statement (attached) and give to a CFCF coach (along with your $25 buy-in) before or by November 3rd
Complete test 1 of the challenge WOD on or before November 3rd, and test 2 on or before December 15th.
Weigh-in and have body fat calculation done on or before November 3rd, and again on or before December 15th. We will use the 3 site method and calipers to calculate body fat percentage.

For women, pictures will be taken in a sports bra and shorts. All pictures will be kept 100% confidential. Pictures can be taken at CFCF during the designated times below.
