Okay… it’s here.

Once again we’re going for a CFB Diet Mashup Challenge. Hell yeah it’s a challenge, but I just want you to focus and keep your eating habits/nutrition top of mind for the next thirty days.

Let’s peel this down to the basics:

What to eat – Meats, vegetables, nuts, seeds, fruits, some starch, minimize processed foods, and avoid refined sugar. Maximize performance with proper supplements and performance engineered foods. This is a Diet Mashup – a hybrid of Paleo and Zone ideas, along with my mods.

[Note: You do not have to measure and weigh out your food if you stick to this plan of eating mainly whole foods (meats, fruits, veggies, nuts and seeds). However, if you decide to eat some less favorable carbs (i.e. bread) you must measure and weigh your food. At that point I recommend you go with my starting point formula.]

Drink water, some milk (if you wish), regular coffee (for you coffee drinkers out there), green tea, and minimize (or cut out completely) alcohol. Hey – it’s only for thirty days, but I’m in SEC country and it’s football season, so I understand.   Now, if you’re sucking during the workouts and your times aren’t getting any better, AND you whine about it, I’m going to tell you to cut that crap out ASAP. Why? Prolly because you can’t handle yourself on Gameday and end up drinking too much.

Okay, so now that we’re clear, we’re running this Diet Mashup concurrently with the Fall Rowing Challenge. Thirty days folks. Suck it up and just do it. Keep focused and stop making excuses for eating shi##y during the typical work week.

You will see and feel a Radical change in your body and performance when you stick to the Fall Rowing Challenge and CFB Diet Mashup for the next 30 days.
