Check out all the buzz on the latest Paleo Challenge....the Lurong Living PALEO Challenge.
I love this idea and think it would be a great way to keep each other motivated to stay on track both nutritionally and in the gym. The first nation-wide paleo challenge. We've done alot of food challenges throughout the years at Apex, but never with other boxes. There is individual and affiliate prizes, if we have 20 people participating we are considered an affiliate in the competition as well.
There are some logistics involved with this challenge as far as wods that need to take place, body measurements, and validation of scores as well. With all the excitement at the new box we don't want to miss this opportunity, however we need some help if we are going to pull this off. We have alot of L1 certified folks among us as and we are looking for help in organizing this to ensure we follow all of the rules set in place in the "official rules" section of the site. If you are interested in helping out or being the contact person and have your L1 please shoot me an email.
Looking forward to another great challenge! Go read the site and comment what you think!

I am very interested. Doing it as a group (like the cleanse) will be extremely helpful. My biggest concern is the sugar (dark chocolate). Also, I am hoping that the WOD's are scaled? Also, Erik said he is a definite maybe...lol
This looks very interesting! As a newbie to the CF community, it would be fun to get a benchmark on some of the basic WOD's and see the progress gained in the weeks to follow. I am in and doing it in a larger group setting will definitely help me stay accountable as well!
I didn't even read the website yet, but I'm "all in"!
Hey! My name is Denise Pomaski, I'm a L1 Trainer at CrossFit Champions in Houston, TX. I noticed that your box is interested in doing the Paleo Challenge. I'd love for you guys to consider coupling this challenge with the 24-Day AdvoCare Challenge! Have you ever heard of it? It's produced some astounding results with the athletes of our box and it totally follows the Paleo way of life. Check it out www.gottahaveadvocare.com
I stumbled upon you guys bc my husband and I are looking into having a booth at the next big crossFit tournament up in your area (where we are from originally). Let me know what you think?!?!? And good luck to all of you.
Out of curiosity I looked at the advocare link. It's interesting that they make it very easy to find a key list of ingedients, but not the complete list. After hunting for the complete list of ingredients (you guys know I'm a computer geek and pretty savvy with searches) I found that the vast majority ingredients I can't pronounce. The items I looked at included fructose, sucralose, oat fiber. imho - not sure it fits in with a paleo challenge.
I am totally in! Doing the cleanse with the group was great and motivating. Count me in!!!
I'm in too!
What's the status? Is someone managering this at Apex?
