No...not walking lunges!!



















Overhead Walking Lunges.....and Burpees! You should have heard the groaning. But they all did awesome.

Today is the first day of CFG month-long Zone Challenge. We're weighing and measuring our food...we're journaling...we're ready to see amazing results. There's been a challenge from our early morning crew, AKA 'The Dark Side'. Who's going to call them on it? Post your comments and thoughts in the comments section. :)



WOD:

5 rounds for time:

50 foot Overhead Walking Lunge (45# bar)

21 Burpees

  1. Mmmm....I'm enjoying my perfectly zone-proportioned breakfast smoothie right now.

    David--I would love to see you attempt to eat 57 blocks of food today. :)

  2. Okay my faulty assumption was that it came out to be 19 protein, plus 19 carb, plus 19 fat = 57. No tape measure here at the office, so I guessed at my waist. Apparently, I'm at the bottom of the learning curve on this whole Zone deal- but I'll keep trying to figure it out.

  3. WTG guys! I should see what my b-fast equals. I had a whole wheat english muffin with an egg and swiss cheese, 2 slices of turkey bacon and about a cup and a half of cantaloupe. Oh yeah, and an 8oz glass of the berry boathouse smoothie. Wow! I ate a huge b-fast didn't I??

  4. Assuming you are at 19 blocks, you spread those 19 blocks throughout your day, each meal/snack making up some of the blocks of your 19 each. For instance:

    breakfast--5 blocks
    snack--2 blocks
    lunch--5 blocks
    snack--2 block
    dinner--5 blocks
    = 19 blocks total

    Each meal/snack will be comprised of your protein/fat/carb ratios so breakfast will have 5 blocks of protein, 5 blocks of fat and 5 blocks of carbs. Now there is some tinkering we can do, such as reducing carbs and/or increasing fat for better performance and results but it's good to do at least 2 weeks of straight Zone and then see what sort of adjustments can be made.

    Does that help?
