Week 5: Question of the Week and BONUS!

 

 

What tips, tricks, or strategies do you use in order to make sure you are getting in at least 5 fruits and veggies daily?

My favorite summer time meal!

 

 

*BONUS*



 

 

Who's in it to win it?  Well, here's a fun, yummy, bonus challenge that has an extra 25-50 points up for grabs.  What do you have to do?  I'm so glad you asked.  :)

 

To earn a bonus 25 points by the end of this week, I want you to find your favorite summertime recipe, make it, and take a picture of it, then submit both the recipe and the picture to me by Saturday at midnight. 

 

I will then post them all on Sunday and we will put it up for a vote for the winners.  Top winners from each category will receive an extra 25 bonus points.  The only guideline I give is that whatever you choose to make must have at least 1 fruit or vegetable in the recipe.  Categories include:  appetizer, salad, side dish, and main dish.  You may only submit 1 recipe/photo, but if each member of your team wants to participate, it may bode well to have each person choose a different category. 

 

Leave your comments here for both the question of the week AND if you have any questions regarding this bonus challenge.  Kinda makes me hungry just thinking about it.  :) 

 

 



 



FINAL WEEK SIGN-UPS

The sign-up sheet is up and ready for you to pick your time to be measured/weighted/pinched. 

 

 

I know that some of these times may not be the most convenient for you that workout from 5-7am.  If you would like to weigh yourself for your "final weigh-in" when you come in the morning, you will need to bring your paperwork from the initial weigh-in (or print off another copy) and have your trainer verify the weight shown on the scale by signing next to the weight.   Measurements and body fat won't matter whether it's morning or evening, those stay pretty consistent.

Week 5: Team Challenge

 

 

Run Girls Run...in a hurry!

 

 

 

It's CrossFit workouts at their finest.."The Girls..." with a twist. 

 

 

Each person on your team will need to complete at least 4 of these workouts, but all workouts (11 total) must be done by at least 1 person in order for each person on your team to earn the 25 points, so be wise when dividing them up.

 

For every workout your team RX's you will earn an extra 5 bonus points per WOD for a maximum possible of 55 points per team.

You will submit your times or reps (for the AMRAPS) for each workout, the top 2 men and top 2 women with the fastest times will earn an extra 5 bonus points per WOD.

And, have you ever wondered why CrossFit workouts are named after girls?

 

Coach Glassman, the founder and President of CrossFit explained it best. “I want to explain the workout once and then give it a name.  I thought that anything that left you flat on your back, looking up at the sky asking ‘what just happened to me?’ deserved a females name.  Workouts are just like storms, they wreak havoc on towns.”
