I am excited to announce a partnership with SugarWOD to host the #800gChallenge™! This partnership combines expert plug-and-play nutrition content all while leveraging the social engagement and scoring capabilities of SugarWOD. For our beta run, we are limiting sign-ups to the first 20 gyms.
The challenge will run May 14-June 10. Start summer off right with a simple challenge focused on quality.
What’s the #800gChallenge™? It’s a method to guide healthy eating without the obsession of unsustainable and overly-strict diets. Each day, participants eat a total of 800 grams by weight of fruits and/or vegetables. Cooked, raw, frozen, canned, all fruits, all vegetables, low-carb, high-carb – doesn’t matter! It’s up to the participant. How much is 800 grams? It fits on a standard dinner plate and is about 6 cups.
That’s it! No foods are off limits, so long as the participant eats their fruits and veggies. Want all the nitty-gritty rules? See here.
