The Workshop

In this one-hour workshop you will learn how nutrition will improve your performance and your health. We will explain the benefits of the Paleo and Zone diets, how your food choices affect your metabolism, health and longevity; and what you should be eating to look, feel and perform your best.
Power Supply will also be there to provide you with more information about their Paleo meals and they will be giving away samples of their delicious meals for you to try them!
This is a workshop you don't want to miss!
This workshop is free for CF FFX and CF Reston members. The cost for non-members is $50.
The Challenge
Over the course of 60 days (Feb 6th - Apr 6th) participants will commit to either eating quality food in any quantity (Paleo) or eating quality food and measuring their intake of protein, carbs and fat (Zone). We will collect data (body composition) for both groups (Paleo and Zone) and will compare it before and after the Challenge.
Participants will get 2 body composition tests (one at the beginning and one at the end) and a zone block prescription. The second body composition will be taken the last week of the challenge. We will announce the dates, times and where we will be taking the body composition tests in a couple of days. Stayed tuned!
Cost
Participants will be asked to contribute $20 which will go to the "CF Nutrition Challenge Fund". The winners of the Challenge (one man and one female) will share it all along with other nice goodies! Top 3 finishers will also get some nice prizes!
The Rules of this Challenge will be given during the Nutrition Workshop, so make sure you DON'T miss it!
