The time is here folks. It’s a new year and time for a new attitude towards your fitness goals.  You will never get to where you want to be or where you never thought possible without first getting the all important proper nutrition. 

 

Lets get one thing straight right off the bat… This is not all about weight loss! The transition to a healthy Paleo lifestyle (it’s not a diet) can and will help improve everything from your skin, sleep, mood to your training performance and ultimately body composition. 

 

So for the next 30 days you will fight temptation and old habits and by the end of this I hope you will find as I and many others have that you don’t “NEED” those things in your life any longer.

 

—–>What is Paleo?? READ THE NUTRITION SECTION OF OUR WEBSITE!!

Paleo = Meat, Fish, Eggs, Veggies, Nuts/Seeds, & Fruit

NOT Paleo = Grains, rices, breads, pastas, beans, soy, sugar,  dairy, all processed / refined food.

 

There are a number of areas this challenge will cover.  Winners will be chosen based on an all around improvement in their baseline workout, photos, measurements and daily points.
