No single day of the #800gChallenge is that difficult, but the challenge reveals itself in trying to be consistent with the metric across days and weeks. Hitting a high of 1,200g one day just to fall off the next is less ideal than consistency reaching a lower target. In the example shown, the roller coaster graph results in 1,000 fewer grams per week compared to the individual who "just" hits 800g/day. In a month, that is 50+(!) servings of fruits and vegetable missed and... the potential effects on health and performance in the long-term become obvious. Even if the 800g target has been too much of a challenge for you, find a target where you can be consistent. It's the final week; let's finish strong! @optimizemenutrition #800gChallenge #puttingametriconquality #consitencymatters #FLxRfitness #crossfit #functionaltraining #personaltraining #nutrition #chasethecarrot

LISTEN UP! Here's the secret to burpees: Okay maybe there aren't any magical secrets but below are a few tips to try to help you save some energy in today's Burpee Over the Barbell WOD. 1 TURN IN THE AIR - try turning in mid-air so that when you land, you’re already facing your bar for the next rep. ... 2 DROP CLOSE TO THE BAR Drop for your burpee as close to the bar as possible so you don’t have to perform an extra hop before jumping over it. 3 STAY LOW you aren’t required to lock your hips for bar facing burpees so, if you want to move fast, stay crouched as you get back up and jump over the bar. #buckfurpees #burpees #tiptuesday #FLxRfitness #crossfit #functionaltraining #personaltraining #nutrition #chasethecarrot

One way to optimize the #800gChallenge is to maximize the diversity of your choices. Maximize nutrient diversity and keep things interesting by incorporating a broad array of fruits and vegetables. Also look at long-term diversity: instead of eating the same six items every day, what kind of variety can you get across the days?... And for the days you can't hit diversity - that is ok! Fruit and veggie choices, regardless of diversity, have more value than more processed carbohydrates. @optimizemenutrition #800gChallenge #puttingametriconquality #FLxRfitness #crossfit #functionaltraining #personaltraining #nutrition #chasethecarrot #nutrition #sdfitness #carlsbad
