I recently completed a thirty day nutritional challenge and was very pleased with the results. The challenge had the participants establish a baseline at the start of the program that included weight, body measurements and a fitness test WOD. We ate only real food, cut out the dairy and anything that came from a can or box. The challenge had us looking at our sleep patterns and targeted 7+ hours each night to allow the body to recover. I dropped 15 pounds and 47 seconds off of the fitness retest WOD.

Baseline WOD for time:

4 Rounds

• 12 Hang Cleans @ 95lbs
• 12 Burpees
• 12 Pull-ups

Finished in 9:10 on the retest.

I have built solid momentum in my training through the accountability of the challenge and the accomplishments revealed in the results of my retest.

I hope to share with you my continued results and journey over the next few months while tackling a few Spartan Beasts and a Ragnar Relay in November.
