Food and Fitness Challenge 2017
You're a member of Life RX. You have your workout plan. But do you have a nutrition plan that complements and supports your body? We all want to see results, whether it be losing fat, having a more chiseled/muscular physique, better performance, or overall well-being. Exercise only gets you 1/2 way there.
Proper nutrition is probably the most important factor affecting your health, performance, and aesthetics. We want to show you how to make each meal an extension of your workouts, improving your body composition, performance and recovery. We also want to run a couple of pre/post tests including body composition (body fat %), a benchmark workout, and partner you up with somebody awesome to help hold you accountable.
The challenge is simple -- Starting on January 8th, you'll spend the next 6 weeks improving your health, your happiness, and doing things that will ACCELERATE your results and improve your performance.
Here are the top 10 reasons why you should definitely do it:
1. You want to adopt healthy, sustainable, and enjoyable dietary habits that make you as healthy as possible, as attractive as possible, and as fit as possible, while also being a good example of health and wellness to your friends and family.
2. You want to get deeper, more restful sleep, clearer skin, more alertness, steady blood sugar, and less afternoon sleepiness.
3. You want to lose weight, improve your body composition, get leaner, get shredded (don't act like you didn't write "get abs" on the goal board last January).
4. You want to get strong and/or put on muscle mass.
5. You want to know how insulin, leptin, glycogen, and more are affected by your diet and how each one affects your health, looks, and performance.
6. You're not sure how much protein, fat, and carbs you should be eating.
7. You have no idea what macronutrients and micronutrients are..
8. You think a low fat diet is healthy.
9. The challenge will end right before the Open begins...Coincidence? I THINK NOT! Open workouts right after 6 weeks of good eating? March is going to be off the hook!
10. You asked for it! If you filled out our member survey back in the Fall.
