7/26 Foodie Friday

Coach Heidi's Teens CrossFit class practices rear scales. Today we're putting our SLIPS practice into our training. Good luck! 
It's Foodie Friday! Finally we are getting real summer weather and it's time to get the grill heated up! I love to grill my fruits and vegetables along with my local meat. Have you ever had a grilled fruit salad? Well, today you're in luck because I found an amazing grilled fruit salad that is Paleo, Whole30, and delicious. This will totally get you in the mood for our 800g Challenge. Click on the image for the recipe. 

What is the 800g Challenge?
This is a nutrition challenge of ABUNDANCE not restriction. You earn daily points for eating 800g, working out, and you can earn bonus points for food diversity, locally sourced food and a weekly challenge. 
Fruits and vegetables are loaded with magical properties. Ok, not really but they are loaded with micronutrients like vitamins and minerals, phytonutrients, antioxidants, fiber, and a very important good for you macronutrient - carbohydrates.
Why 800g? There's been some important research that shows 800g is the optimal amount of fruits and vegetables we should eat for health. 
We are hosting an info session this Wednesday, July 31 at 6:30pm at the gym. If you can't join us at the gym you can join us on Facebook Live. You don't have to be a member or live in our area to join our 800g Challenge. You can participate from where you are! I hope you join us! For more information check out the info sheet at the end of this blog and a great video series from last year's Social #800gchallenge with the creator of the challenge and CEO of Optimize me Nutrition, E. C. Synkowski.
