-News-
There has been a bit of talk lately about diet and in particular The Zone Diet (yes I know its a horrible cheesy name), this is the nutrition framework that CrossFit pushes towards. Looking at Zone on the surface can seem daunting and a right pain in the arse but when the basic principles are understood, it can in its most basic form be very easy to follow.
There are already a couple of guys following Zone to various degrees whether it be strict and measuring/weighing food to following a rough block pattern and making their meals more balanced. I know a couple of these guys are keeping food logs and between us there is a wealth of good meal ideas and tips for following Zone and just eating better in general. Im currently looking at a few ways to best share this information with everyone, ie an informal seminar where Zone basics are explained, popping a whole lot of info up here, a regular email newsletter etc etc. I already have a handout ready with some basic info on it and I will have that with me at all sessions so hit me up if your interested in a read. Diet is a lot like exercise, sharing the experience with others can make it a lot easier, more rewarding and make you more accountable, so stayed tuned for updates on the nutrition front and pass on any suggestions you have in regard to a regular newsletter, seminar, online messageboard etc.
For now go check out The Zone Diet and also Eat This Blog courtesy Santa Cruz Central

I think you having us all around, and you cooking for us, showing us how it is done is a good idea!!!
my delicate hands hurt after that session....
Quads are still sore from Monday, and now the hamstrings feel like they have had quick set cement poured in them! Walking like spaso!
I will come with my small zone lunch box :)
did you forget to put your gloves on lloyd??? haha, its fun to poke fun when i wasnt there to endure the pain :D
Came the the point in the workout where I actually needed to take the gloves off and get my hands dirty! Shock horror! Unbelievable I know! I might take the gloves off on Saturday morning who knows! These things are mostly out of my control......

Nice little workout to nicely finish everyone off before the rest day, bit of work to be done really refining the deadlift but overall pretty good and the girls really served it up in both sessions for the 100 squat thrust finisher..
thank god for rest day
