Excuses
I am not here the whole month – Keep your journal and get bonus points for travel WODS.
I can’t eat that clean – Stop making excuses and make a start.
I don’t know the people in my team – Get to know a few new faces
I don’t know if I will be able to do it – Put yourself out there and give it a try. No one will take it too
serious.
8 weeks seem so long – Break it up into two 4 weeks. Allow yourself a cheat in the middle.
1. Showing up
Coming to class AND logging WOD on BoxChamp – 2 points per team member
Maximum points that can be collected per team member for attendance over the 2 months – 70
2. Paleo Food Journal
We have attached a Paleo challenge handbook that will guide you through what to eat and what not
to eat. It is simple and achieves results for energy and weight loss like no other.
You can use the printed papers in the handbook or log meals on boxchamp or use any other app.
At the end of the challenge you will need to submit this for review.
When you cheat, own up, write it in your journal and move on.
For every day of complete food journal – 1 point
For every week of following strict paleo eating and drinking – 5 bonus points
3. Lowering Body Fat
You will be given points for the overall reduction in body fat percentage.
Unfortunately the only reliable way to measure involves you and a calliper with 7 sites being
measured. Scales with built in body fat calculation is notoriously inaccurate.
We will get a female to measure the ladies.
If this still irks you we can take the overall reduction in your weight, but weight never tells the full
story.
If you don’t like maths then skip this calculation. You will be given points for the proportional
lowering of your body fat.
Someone losing bodyfat from 20% to 16% (4% reduction) and someone losing from 10% to 8% (2%
reduction) will each receive the same points 4%/20% = 2%/10% = 20% proportional reduction.
You will receive 5 points per proportional percentage point that you reduce your body fat.
