Paleo Challenge Lecture – September 10th, 7pm

It’s that time of year… Paleo Challenge time! This year, the challenge will begin on Sunday, September 15 and will last for 6 weeks. (Yup, we planned it perfectly so you won’t have to waste all of your points on Halloween candy this year!) There will be a $20 buy-in for the challenge, with all money going to the winners!

Even if you regularly eat Paleo or have done this challenge before, it’s a great way to really dial in your nutrition and hold yourself more accountable than you normally would. If you’ve never tried Paleo before but have considered it, what better time to start than when all of your favorite gym friends are doing it with you?!

The challenge will kick off with a Paleo lecture on September 10 at 7pm (We have also added a make-up lecture Friday the 13th at 6pm). During the week leading up to the challenge, we’ll take your measurements and test some benchmark workouts. During the next 6 weeks, you’ll be responsible for logging your daily food intake and coming in here and hitting WODs as hard as you can. At the end of the 6 weeks, we’ll take measurements again, retest the benchmarks, and crown a winner! To sign-up for the challenge, please click here.
