Cheering on our athletes as they finish WOD #10 of the Lurong Living Paleo Challenge. (10-8-6-4-2 power cleans, 20-40-60-80-100m sprints).
As the Lurong Living Paleo Challenge reaches its end this year, we’re all equally anticipating one vice or another. Whether it’s a tequila shot or a morsel of chocolate, it’s likely something has been creeping its way back into your thoughts. So how do you find a balance between the ways you used to be eating and the guidelines you’ve been following? How do you keep CrossFit a part of your routine now that you don’t have mandatory WODs? Next week, we’ll look back on the journey we’ve all been on the past eight weeks and what lies ahead. We’ll discuss how to:
Develop your plan (your new eating lifestyle), identify your weaknesses, and find the balance that works for you. We’ve all worked far too hard to fall back into our old lifestyles.
Make movement, stretching, and recovery a part of your routine. Maintaining your active lifestyle even when time is sparse or stress is high is key—remember exercise is adaptable. On your days off, focus on stretching, icing, and massage.
Think of the end of this challenge as the beginning of a new phase in your journey toward a healthy lifestyle. This can be your mantra—as the holidays creep around the corner so will the pressing temptations.
Want to share your experience with the box? Or, do you have questions you’d like us to answer? Send them our way, and we’ll make them a part of the discussion next week!
Congratulations on making the commitment and ending your last few days on a high note! :)
