Nutrition Is Forever

So member participation has come to a close on our fifth paleo challenge and every class seems to be crawling with super-humans. If you didn’t sign up and feel like you missed the boat, think again! Our challenge is just a way to help people get the ball rolling on a lifestyle change. Ideally, this will be ongoing behavior that will have a longterm influence on positive healthy decisions. It is important to know that, although we subscribe to the paleo lifestyle, there are other options out there as well. Any way to avoid sugars or anything that will result in sugar production will be helpful. Here is another popular option:



The coaches are getting down to the nitty-gritty and crunching the final numbers. All you have to do is hang tight, get in a workout or two, and try to stay on that wagon! Results will be out soon. Those of you that are getting new cravings or others that want to sample paleo life, here are some resources that you may have missed:

This could be the snowball effect that leads to other healthy choices that span beyond nutrition alone. Eating better may lead to better sleeping habits, maintaining a quality hydration level, avoiding unnecessary stressful situations, or even becoming more active. Get out and play some sports, do a recreational activity, or do anything that you will find more enjoyable as the healthier new you!

While on the subject, we should all invest more time into body maintenance. There are tons of instructional resources available to you. Check the internet, check our facility library, or just check in at our in-house mobility room. Ready to take it to the next level? Try Gretchen’s World Famous Sports Massage. This is for high quality maintenance and recovery. This is not your usual dainty aromatherapy massage. The station will be set up at the Gold Gym and the CFLI member rumor mill submits that Gretchen is the “real deal”, so claim your spot before your slot fills up!
