Up for a challenge?
We are doing a clean eating challenge here at CrossFit Train for the entire month of February and we want as many members to participate as possible! Not only will you get to reap the awesome health benefits of an entire month of clean eating which is a perfect nutritional prep for the Open, but we are going to make this a competition. You will win points for eating clean, working out, and a variety of other challenges. The grand prize winners will win one month free membership!
So what exactly is clean eating? Some people may use the term eating “clean” synonymously with Paleo, but the term originated in the 1960’s, prior to the emergence of the Paleo Diet. As it was originally conceived, “clean” eating meant only eating whole foods and avoiding all processed foods. However, the concept has evolved and nowadays “clean” eating can mean slightly different things to different people.
Why do a 30-day challenge? First of all, why not? It is a short-term commitment that can be super fun when you do it with others, like your CrossFit Train family. And there will be prizes!! But more importantly, you will very likely learn something new and feel better afterwards. Let’s face it, many of us still need a little recovery from the holidays. You have hopefully gotten back on the healthy wagon in January but regardless, a 30-day challenge is a perfect nutritional “reset”. It will help heal your gut and shift your gut microbes to a healthier microbial community. It will help you break cravings, have more energy, feel more stable, and lose excess fat.
Stay tuned for more information on the specific details of our Fit February challenge!!!
