Nutrition

What we eat determines how well we perform athletically.  What should you eat?  The CrossFit mantra sums it up perfectly:

Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar.  Eat enough to maintain activity levels but not enough to sustain fat.

Most CrossFitter benefit from following the Zone Diet, the Paleo diet, or a combination of the two.  Basically, eat real food! 

I recently watched the film, Food, INC and highly recommend it.  You should know what you put in your mouth and demand the best.  Video may not display in Internet Explorer.  Firefox works.
